New LTM Flashpoint

The important factor of the new LTM are Flash Points, these are large zones dotted around Kings Canyon.

While in these zones your health and shields will automatically regenerate over time.

It's important to know where the Flash Points are, as there are no healing items in this LTM.

Here's a snippet from the official blog post "Every other squad in the arena is going to have the same idea. These zones are going to create massive multi-squad fights that bring the feeling of a team deathmatch to Apex Legends, complete with health regeneration that evokes some of our favorite classic first person shooters."

"Additionally, the circle in this mode follows Always Be Closing rules - it never stops closing, and it will always close on a Flash Point, making that final fight even more exciting. In lieu of med kits, you’ll be able to craft Phoenix Kits at Crafting Replicators - for a price." they finished.

Caustic Heirloom

It's finally here, the Caustic heirloom.

Although many are annoyed Caustic would get his before Bangalore, I must say, it's an interesting concept.

I had no idea what Caustic could have as an heirloom and the team did a great job.

Take a look at it below!
