Apex Legendscan often be a fast-paced hero shooter that stops at nothing when a squad’s mobility and survivability are concerned. In the midst of adrenaline-packed gameplay, it’s often easy to lose sight of the importance of strategy and planning things out before rushing into a fight.
Thankfully, Controller Legends have the ability to use Ring Consoles. While Survey Beacons can reveal the locations of enemy players, Ring Consoles reveal the next safe zone on the map. These handy machines are scattered across the map, and are marked by small icons, so players can easily spot and use them.
Where To Find Ring Consoles
The moment the match starts, all you need to do is open your map. Regardless of which map is in rotation,you will spot Ring Consoles marked on your map. These are small icons that look like tiny mushrooms, and can be approached any time during the match.
Do remember that only Controller Legends can use these, so if you aren’t playing as one, ask your Controller teammate to find and interact with a Ring Console. If you happen to see one, simply look at it and ping it. This will notify every one in the team.
How To Use Ring Consoles
As a Controller Legend, you will see the option of interacting with a Ring Console the moment you approach it.Move towards it, and press and hold the Interact/Pickup key.
Once you do this, there will be a short duration where your Legend uses the machine and notifies the team with a voice line. Given thefast-paced nature of the game, it’s best not to spend too much time around the Ring Console. Additionally, everyone in the team can nowopen their maps and see where the next ring location is.
Based on this information, start planning your next movesto ensure everyone stays inside the ring before the timer runs out. This detail can also help you set up defenses based on the Legend you have picked and how their abilities help your squad mates.
Avoid using a Ring Console when in the middle of a fight. There’s always time for that later.
