Players will want to make sure they have the best aim possible heading into Apex Legends Season 18.
It is no secret Apex Legends Season 17 is wildly uncompetitive. Over 20% of the game's player base is in Masters, and some have even reached Predator without any weapons. Fortunately, changes are coming to the Ranked system in Season 18 that will require players to once again hit their shots and eliminate enemies to climb the Ranked ladder.
Here's a breakdown of the best ways to aim better in Apex Legends.
How to Aim Better in Apex Legends
The best way to aim better in Apex Legends is to spend as much time as possible in the Firing Range. The newly designed space in Season 17 now contains dummies that fight back, as well as a 1v1 pit that lets players fight one another. Before you load into a Battle Royale match, hone your skills in practice.
It is also imperative that your crosshair remains up even as you are on the move. Aim and movement in Apex Legends are interconnected, and you must be able to keep your crosshair steady and ready to quickly snap onto an enemy even when you are rotating.
Unlike Call of Duty: Warzone, Apex Legends' high TTK also requires players to actually hit a decent number of shots to down an enemy. In close range fights, hip firing will give you a greater chance at tracking your opponent to deal the necessary damage. ADS will reduce your field of view and potentially get you killed.
