Newcastle is one of the newer additions to the Apex roster. He arrived in Season 13 and floated around the meta for a while after release. While some pro players predict that he\u2019ll be making a big splash as Season 16 continues, he doesn\u2019t get the same appreciation at the lower ranks of Apex Legends. This isn\u2019t a great surprise to the community though. The big guy is all about teamwork, and that\u2019s something that has to be learned through experience. However, one player has suggested that Respawn could help fledgling players understand him better with the tiniest of additions. Apex Legends fan suggests brilliant change to help Newcastle mains Newcastle is a combat medic similar to his sister Lifeline. While she\u2019s all about getting people back on their feet and back to full health, big brother prefers to dive into the battle and drag his teammates to safety through the use of his shield. What\u2019s important to understand here is that the higher quality of the knockdown shield that Newcastle has, the stronger protection he has from incoming fire as he attempts to pick his squadmates up. That\u2019s why Reddit user Shocker_103 is pleading with Respawn to add a note to the game that suggests players should give up their squads best Knockdown Shield to their friendly Newcastle. \u201cRespawn please consider putting some sort of indicator to encourage players to give Newcastle a better knockdown shield,\u201d they begged. This is standard practice at the higher levels of play, but for newer players or those who don\u2019t regularly play with him in their squad, it might not be as obvious a choice. However, giving Newcastle more opportunities to save a team from sticky situations can only result in massive benefits in productivity for him. There\u2019s no telling whether Respawn will actually pull the trigger on something like this, but making every Legend more approachable could be beneficial to the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clever Newcastle main dreams up brilliant Apex Legends change to help new players Respawn EntertainmentA crafty Apex Legends player has dreamed up a small addition to the game that could help players of all ranks realize Newcastle\u2019s full potential.
