Among all ten characters available in the Apex Legends battle royale, most players consider Caustic as one of the worst ones. Since the first days after the game’s official launch, many fans found this Legend pretty annoying. However, with a new secret tip revealed by one Reddit user 107azure, we bet that you can give a new life to this character and use his trapping abilities to the maximum.
Probably each of you already knows about the unique abilities of this character if you have already tested Apex Legends. If you need a quick reminder, this character has his ultimate and passive abilities – one allows a player to release a grenade with deadly gas and cover a large area in it, and other gives you a clear vision through your gas. Also, there is Caustic’s tactical ability, called Nox Gas Trap, which allows trapping enemies until they die and that’s what we are going to talk about here.
By now, most of you should already know that this character can set traps with deadly gas inside different rooms to trap opponents. However, one more thing you should be aware of is that these traps are most often not as effective as you’d wish. The biggest problem with Caustic’s traps is that those are too large. Thus, it can be quite simple for other players to avoid them once there is one already set up.
For months, this problem didn’t allow Caustic players to reveal the character’s full potential, until now. With the help of the user’s secret tip given below, Caustic’s traps get much more effective and, we have to admit it, way more annoying for the rest of players on the battlefield.
The main idea behind this pro tip is to drop gas traps through cracks in a spot that players didn’t know exists. This generally allows players to hide them much better, not letting the enemies to find and avoid them, and, thus, giving you better stats in Apex Legends Tracker.
Pro Tip For Using Caustic Gas To Your Benefit
The user has pointed out that players can hide their traps between cracks behind a fence. This doesn’t allow an enemy to see the trap before he actually gets into it.
One big drawback of such a tactic is that you can only use it outside, not inside rooms. This means that killing your enemies with this method will only be possible if you attack them while they are covered in gas. Otherwise, this hack will only serve as an annoyance for other players. However, it still can take away a small part of the opponent’s health.
Wrapping up, it is worth saying that you shouldn’t rely on this tip for kills. Indeed, trap rooms are way more effective for taking down your opponents. It also doesn’t make this character our favorite one. But, at least, it gives players a bit more options for building up an effective strategy.
