In Apex Legends, players are always looking for new tricks and tactics to give them an edge over their opponents. One such trick involves using the game’s jump pads to ride the giant Revelry balloons that appear on the map during the Holo-Day Bash event.
A Neat Trick
To execute this trick, players first need to locate one of the jump pads scattered throughout the map. These jump pads are easily identifiable by their distinctive blue color and circular shape. Also, this trick does not have plenty of requirements. Just a material canister will do quite nicely.
Once the jump pad is found, players need to position themselves on the edge of the pad so that they’re facing the direction of the balloon they want to ride. They then need to jump onto the pad and quickly turn in the direction of the balloon, which will be visible in the distance. Make sure you have a material canister before making the jump or else the trick will not work.
Simple and Effective
Suppose you are playing Octane in the game and you want to ride one of the balloons. You can use Octane’s incredible speed and momentum to launch him right onto the Revelry balloon where you want to ride. Moreover, it just requires placing your jump pad against the material canister and jumping on it. The trick allows you to super jump when you execute it in this manner. Quite the fun, isn’t it?
Players will launch into the air if they execute it correctly. They will use the jump pad and will land on the balloon. Allowing them to ride it as it moves across the map. This can be a fun way to explore the map and get a unique perspective on the game. Imagine flying around a familiar map on the back of a giant balloon. Taking in all that lush scenery from a bird’s eye view.
Remember to be Careful
However, players should be aware that riding the balloons makes them a target for other players, as they will be visible from a distance and unable to defend themselves while riding. As such, it’s important to keep an eye out for potential threats. Always jump off the balloon at any time to avoid taking damage. You do not want to end up being cannon fodder just because you wanted to have some fun.
Conclusion
Apex Legends has many such quirks hidden within its environment. All that you need to unearth them is a bit of cleverness and a dash of luck. Now the thing is, will developers let the players have their fun or will they just remove this feature in a future patch? My money is on the former. It is good for the player base.
Overall, this trick is a fun and unique way to explore the map in Apex Legends and can give players a new perspective on the game. However, players should use caution and be aware of the potential risks involved in riding the balloons.
