Apex University Discord

​

Welcome everyone,

​

First the mod team would like to thank everyone for being part of this community and providing content and tips to other players, we know that there is a lot more that could be wished from the staffs side and we are currently trying to improve things day by day. Now here we are at 160k members which is amazing, we never expected the sub to grow that big when we started it, so once again thank you all for that!

​

Since the beginning of this community the subreddit has naturally been and will continue to be the focal point of our efforts while our discord server started out as a way for the mod team to efficiently communicate about the subreddit, however over time as it became more active and we started putting more attention into making it a stronger extension of the sub and would therefor like to once again invite everyone to partake and explain a bit about what you can expect of the space both now and going forward:

​

- 1on1 coaching

​

- Group finding channel

​

- Subreddit & Discord suggestions (easier for the mod team to have a discussion about the direction of the sub compared to over at Reddit)

​

- Self-promotion channel & stream your games

​

- Meta & strat chats

​

- Off-topic and space to flex your gains

​

We are furthermore in the process of preparing some challenges in the discord, possibly with some smaller prizes. More to come on that in the future.

​

If you are looking for any of that we ask you all to join our discord xbox/ps4/computer, we welcome everyone! We hope to see you in our ever-growing community on discord.

Been playing a lot of conduit, and usually stop playing once I hit mid diamond due to the solo queue experience and people being toxic. What are your experiences? Any tips from other conduit mains?

Odd FPS problem

1 Upvotes

I have my fps at 130 capped on a 144hz monitor. Its usually great, but sometimes it fluctuates between 120-130 and it DOES NOT feel at all like 120-130. Its like 60 fps with very noticeable stutters. I have every graphics setting as low as it goes. Anybody else struggling with this? I have a Radeon GPU, drivers updated.

Questioning How good I was and am now

Post image
89 Upvotes

So to some this could seem like a joke but this was my best season I had hit Master 4 times before this push. Twice in one season some seasons I'd stop at diamond 4 then the second split I'd push for master before I pushed for Master I had a diamond 4 both splits after I hit Predator I retired till now. Though I've seen a lot of people post better K/ds then me the best in a season I hit not on ranked while playing at least 500 games was 1.8 was I really that good though I just came back and I'm hard stuck between Plat 3 and 4 solo q with below a 1kd and I'm questioning how good was I really. I remember being able to 1v1 to 1v3 Predator or Master level players back In the day but I dont know how to feel about it anymore

TIps for first time DIamond?

1 Upvotes

I recently hit diamond for the second time ever (last split I reached it the final week), and I was able to climb from diamond 4 to diamond 3, but now I went back down to diamond 4 and I'm on the verge of ranking down to plat. Can anyone give me any advice or any tips on how to adjust, or adapt to diamond lobbies? If it helps, I mostly solo queue and duo queue.

0 Upvotes

any tips on how to improve? When fights are happening, most of the time idk where to position, when to engage and I sometimes I find myself like 40 - 80 meters away from my team when they push an enemy team (I mainly use snipers and grab evo harvesters). And also idk what to do when it's like 3rd or 4th ring and I just end up dying. Tyia

I’m currently diamond and I don’t understand how to deal with third parties in this game, it feels like arc raiders the second people hear shots it’s rotate from their drop

Are you not supposed to loot in the back of a POI?

Had an instance on Broken Moon today where I was the furthest away from the next POI inside my own POI, thus I needed the longest to join my two teammates who decided to insta rush the POI. Is it my fault?

Title: Looking for someone to coach me on controller

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm a relatively new Apex Legends player on and I'm looking for someone experienced who could help me improve my aim and overall fighting skills.

I currently main Revenant, and I enjoy playing aggressively, hunting squads, and taking fights. My biggest problems are tracking enemies, winning 1v1s consistently, and controlling my aim during close-range fights.

I'm looking for someone who could play with me, watch how I fight, give me tips, and help me improve my controller settings and mechanics.

I don't expect anyone to carry me. I genuinely want to learn and get better.

If anyone is willing to help, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Question R5 reloaded 1v1s

5 Upvotes

I decided to start practicing my 1v1s here, and i’m just wondering why it feels so… different? I tried to match my settings to how i play on the normal client, but it feels like sometimes i whiff way more than i would generally.

I get that these 1v1s will be way harder than a 1v1 against TimmyTwoBeers in my wildcard game, due to the type of person thats likely to be in a modded client practicing 1v1s over and over. But it just feels weird, almost like hip firing or something doesn’t act the same.

Am i coping? Skill issue? lmk if this is just that or if you guys notice similar

Discussion Should I play Apex

Hey I recently saw some people online playing apex online and was wondering if the game is still fun. Im PC and just wondering if its competitive and worth putting effort in. (I know this might be a FAQ but I just want to know if the game is in a good state unlike others)

Question Should a master blame his tools?

0 Upvotes

This probably isn't a flex or probably a bare minimum but for the first time I hit gold (I recently got back into apex and even more recently ranked) and I've played apex in two places at home with an RTx 3050 laptop connected to a 1080p IPS monitor and at my colleges eSports lounge on an 4080 super Desktop PC and this may or may not seem obvious but am I supposed to play better at like 240 cos compared to the usual 70 to a 100? That aside aiming at home due to a shorter table I'm forced to aim with my palm resting on the edge (left picture) while at college I rest it on the table i feel like this makes me aim better but wanted to confirm

Question Duo here. Should we take bad fights with our random or let them die?

4 Upvotes

Genuine question because when I play with my friend we get a lot of randoms who seemingly pick the worst fights ever and insist on pushing despite us begging them to push for a fight closer to ring.

Here’s the example that led me to make this post:

We are spawned in Skyhook East with teams dropped all around us at Skyhook West/Trials, War Camp, Countdown, and Big Maude/Landslide.

The closest edge of the first ring ends up being around Epicenter and Monument.

We loot up and I ping and call to push War Camp so we can get in on the Epicenter/Camp/Village fighting, but our teammate says to push Trials instead since the team is white armor.

Sure, fine, we push to take the fight but the other team takes the jump tower into 3 teams fighting at countdown so I once again ping and make the call to back off and go toward ring / War Camp.

Random says “we need KP and only round 1, push” so we push into countdown, they get insta knocked along with my friend so I nexus out but end up dying to ring since we spent so long.

So what do we do here? This is a regular occurrence, where we make one call and the random tells us to push somewhere else instead that will lead us further from the ring and make us go through the most crowded choke points on the map if we don’t want to die to ring damage.

If we fight: we might get some kills but we almost always die to ring if we aren’t instantly deleted by third parties.

If we leave our random and stick to the original plan: random gets mad and usually leaves the game after they die, or literally acts like a toddler and throws the game because we didn’t listen to them.

What is the actual play when we get a third like this?

Apex Legends Moderation: Where Is the Fairness?

0 Upvotes

I want to talk about something that has been bothering me regarding moderation in Apex Legends.

A friend of mine previously received a 72-hour suspension for a message that EA classified as harassment and bullying. We aren't trying to dispute that decision or claim that she did nothing wrong. She accepts that her message warranted punishment.

However, there's another side to this situation.

I personally heard another player verbally abuse her over voice chat. Within approximately five minutes, he called her a "bitch" and a "20-dollar whore," told her to "make him a sandwich" and said that "the kitchen is where she belongs," along with several other degrading insults. This happened after he got knocked as a result of his own actions.

I reported him, and EA reviewed my report. Their response was that no action would be taken.

I understand that these are separate incidents and that context matters. I also don't have a recording of the voice-chat incident, so I can only share what I personally witnessed. However, EA's response raised questions about how voice-chat reports are handled and what happens when players experience verbal harassment.

My friend accepts the consequences of her own actions. But where is the fairness when we report someone for repeatedly directing sexist insults at another player and the report results in no action?

I'm not asking EA to punish anyone without evidence, nor am I claiming that every report should automatically result in a suspension. I want to understand how the system works and whether players can expect consistent enforcement regardless of whether harassment happens in text or voice chat.

I'm sharing the responses I received from EA because I believe this deserves a serious discussion, not because I want to target or harass an individual player.

Have you experienced something similar in Apex Legends? Have you reported voice-chat harassment and received no action?

I'd genuinely like to hear other players' experiences and see whether this is a broader issue that EA needs to address.

Seeking for sustainability // advice

1 Upvotes

Dear all,

I'm an apex player with a lot of breaks in between seasons and i came back for season 30 aswell. I hit d4 split 1 and im currently D3 on split 2.

I've been dealing with a huge problem of sustaining possitive points on my sessions. I am watching a lot of youtube videos and i always try to fight from an advantageous position, always stay alert for third parties, never fighting the same squad more than a whole minute and always rotating to the ring. I don't play with randoms, i 3 stack using apex official discord server, but still im dealing with a huge problem. It feels like everyone is beaming, everyone knows exactly where i am or where i will be, the other teams are force pushing us without knocks, without any 3rd party, just w-keying. I'm a decent player, i one-clip quite a few times and i know the fundamentals of the game very good ( i think). I grind every day for 6+ hours. I'm always warmed up and i always play legends for the team's good.

Is there something i miss here? Is it really me? Is it due to the hacking situtation? Or is everybody better than my countless 3 stack teams i'm getting into?

What can i do for my self to prevent that? How do i constantly not getting pushed from every side, even if i have cover? I need some real advice.

Discussion Needing advice

0 Upvotes

I’ve been playing apex since season 3 and I would say I’m a pretty decent player(peak rank diamond 3),however I know I can do/be better but I just don’t know how to go about it. I often watch players either YouTube or in game and compare myself and realize I’m no where near to being on their level. They can win 1v3’s ,move quick,loot quick ,beam their opponents etc. And seeing this knowing I got the potential but just can’t perform makes me hit a mental roadblock where I don’t even feel to play apex at times. Do you’ll have any advice
