Respawn Entertainment has announced the abilities for Vantage, the Legend added in Apex Legends Season 14 – Hunted developer Respawn Entertainment has regularly kept the game updated since its launch.
Around every 12 weeks, the battle royale has had a new Legend, map changes and gameplay tweaks. This has kept the game fresh and is one of the most popular free-to-play battle royales around.
The youngest Legend to enter the games, Vantage is a sniper that grew up on the harsh ice planet Págos. A new Recon Class, Vantage’s abilities will allow her to gather information on enemy squads and take a position at the perfect vantage point. Vantage is a sniper specialist that is deadliest at the range, as her abilities show.
Passive – Spotter’s Lens
Using her Spotter’s Lens, Vantage gets a tactical read of enemies in sight, including their shield rarity, team size and range. This allows her and her squad to strategies before engaging.
Tactical – Echo Relocation
I haven’t mentioned this yet, but Vantage has a cute little bat companion named Echo, he’s a cutie. Using her Tactical, Vantage can order Echo to fly at a position and, when activated, she launches to that spot using her jetpack.
Ultimate – Sniper’s Mark
Whipping out her custom-made sniper rifle that has its own ammo pool, Vantage’s enemies are revealed when aiming down the scope. If hit by the rifle, enemies are highlighted for your whole squad for ten seconds and will take increased damage from all incoming fire.
