Apex\u2019s focus on enhanced movement is a signature quality of the game. From Octane\u2019s jump pad to Pathfinder\u2019s grappling hook and zipline combination, there have been no shortage of ways to access unintentional hiding spots on each of the game\u2019s four battle royale maps. This latest one might take the cake though, as it serves as both the perfect place to fight from and as one of the best places to get away from the action without being sussed out by another team. Apex Legends players discover Valkyrie-exclusive \u201crat spot\u201d on Storm Point In the clip we see the Valkyrie on Loba\u2019s team start her Skyward Dive while on top of a rock over by the prowler\u2019s nest at the nature reserve. From there the group ascends to the very top of the map before landing on a nearby care package that has been caught on top of the rocky outcropping in front of them. This area looks like it should be out of bounds but instead the squad lands there freely and loots the drop without ever incurring the usual death timer. As one user predicted in the comments, it\u2019s likely that this spot will get a lot of attention from players who are confident in their ability with long-range weapons: \u201cSomeone with a charge rifle up there could kill and be untouchable at the same time. Another commenter suggested that while the offensive advantage is immediately obvious, it\u2019s also the perfect place to hide out if your squad goes down or you need to buy some time until they can get to you: \u201cI know people are going to abuse this to fight from high ground but I just want to use it as a rat spot once and see how it goes.\u201d While technically not a violation of the game\u2019s rules, this spot is still unfair to any team without a Valkyrie and will likely see a patch in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players discover perfect high ground \u201crat spot\u201d on Storm Point This hiding spot on Apex Legends\u2019 Storm Point is only accessible via Valkyrie ultimate and it places players in a spot that likely should be restricted from play in the first place.
