<br>Thanks so much for continuing to work as hard as you can to roll out updates, fixes and changes while grappling with the challenges of COVID-19, including those that may be impacting your own mental hea<br><br> <br>Drop locations will have a small variation depending on where the dropship is entering the area. For example, the ship might be coming by way of the Artillery and then the next game it can start from the Hydro Dam. The important item to note here is that no matter where the ship enters the area, it's important to make decisions quickly as players have probably already dropped and are looting while decisions are being made. Time is of the essence here so let's show some of the best locations and explain why they are the b<br><br> <br>Apex Legends does a good job as a free-to-play game at offering its players skins for both weapons and legends worth chasing after. You would think that Revenant would have darker-themed skins due to his murderous past, which he very much does. In addition to those though they also gave him 3 separate skins all inspired by the Egyptian god, Ra. It not only changes Revenant's coloring but gives him a bird-like head which is more akin to the depictions of Ra throughout Egyptian mythol<br><br> <br>Is it worth $10? Absolutely. The most recent battle pass included 6 new exclusive skins each with its own additional unlockable styles, and most have their own pickaxes and back bling, on top of a handful of emotes, loading screens, and player icons. If Fortnite does one thing right it is its cosmetics. The battle pass offers players a plethora of items to unlock that are each unique and worth the grind and the extra challenges extend the life of the game and give players a reason to hop back in every w<br><br> <br>You may be wondering who does the voice of Revenant as it feels like it has a certain cadence and gravitas to it that feels familiar for some reason. Well, the symbol of death is voiced by Darin De Paul. At first, that name might not mean anything to you, but the talented actor has an established footprint in the industry. He's voiced Reinhardt in Overwatch, J. Jonah Jameson in Marvel's Spider-Man, Calus in Destiny 2, and even Owl in 2019's Game Awards Game of the Year winner, Sekiro: Shadows Die Tw<br><br> <br>Her ultimate ability, Black Market Boutique, creates a "death box" that draws in all the equipment in a wide range. Every player is allowed to take up to 2 items from the boutique. This ability is a great way to grab items quickly without having to search multiple buildings or death bo<br><br> <br>Burglar's Best Friend, on the other hand, will be the ability that truly saves the team in tight situations. There are tons of uses for creative players to deploy this ability in combat. Loba can throw her bracelet much higher than she can jump, so that makes the character perfect for acting as a sniper. Just use the ability to instantly climb a building and scope the surrounding area for enemies or other vantage points for the team. If rushed by another team, this ability is great for either avoiding fire or counterattacking. Players could throw their bracelet far away and hide somewhere, or even teleport to an advantageous spot behind or next to enemies. This makes for easy flanking or pinching maneuvers if coordinated with teamma<br><br> <br>The Slum Lanes can be a bit of a maze to newer players but the good thing about this area is that it can be easy to get lost when meeting up with other players. Unless someone is using Bloodhound or Crypto, this area is easy to get the jump on others and escape if needed. The area has a lot of loot chests here as well but they are spread out and most of the loot is just lying on the floor in each building. Not a lot of players come to this location and is a good place to go if avoidance of the pack is the strat<br> <br>As expansive as Kings Canyon is in _Apex Legends _ , there are a few prime spots to land in Season 5 and a few to avoid. Some of the more popular locations will be heavily populated so it's up to each player do decide if they want to go up against the competition or avoid the mess, at least for a little while, and stay off to the sides. Each method of play has its rewards and benefits and the drop locations can help to establish those types of pl<br><br> <br>However, Fortnite isn't for everyone and a battle pass may not be the determining factor for playing the game. The challenges have gotten easier with every new <a href="https://apexlegendsfans.com/articles/sparrow-arrives-apex-season-25-s-charismatic-bounty-hunter.html">Season 25 new Legend</a>, so unlocking a tier 100 skin variant doesn't feel as prestigious as it once did.

One of the biggest things to keep in mind right after dropping is that if you see an enemy playing as Loba, then it is probably a good idea to not loot in the same area as them. That character will have the advantage of finding the best loot in the area, so players are likely to lose that fi<br>
