With almost a year in the books for Respawn\u2019s battle royale, players have been refining their tactics with the game\u2019s diverse roster of Legends \u2013 with some people creating a wild plays using everything from Gibraltar to Crypto\u2019s drone. Even more impressive are the ways these plays can really shake up a battlefield for a team, giving them immense pressure that leads to quick kills and major loot. In a Reddit post, user \u2018BigPapa-Mullins\u2019 cooked up a storm by perfectly utilizing Caustic\u2019s toxic ability kit. But what really threw off their foes was the timely use of Thermites to turn up the heat in the prison of poisonous plumes. \u201cNothing better than being Caustic in a tunnel fight,\u201d they said, showing off a two-minute gameplay clip that plays out like an epic Hollywood scene between two warring factions. Knowing teams were about to push on them, the player tossed out the disorienting Nox Gas Grenade to give the Toxic Trapper ample room to maneuver in. When the foes pushed up, that\u2019s when BigPapa-Mullins set the Mining Pass ablaze with two Thermites to create a hold that prevented the other team from advancing while cutting off their escape. The trap was set. The tunnels turned into a hellish backdrop and, soon after, the killfeed lit up with Papa Mullin\u2019s name. After the first fight, another team was already lining up to contest the player and their squad, so Caustic went back to perfect his set up. By placing out a Nox trap in the middle of the open, it looked like the enemies were prepared to keep pushing, feeling safe that they knew where the threat was located. Caustic responded by putting another trap behind an obstruction. When a blinded enemy Octane pushed past the first one, it looked like they were unaware another trap had activated, extending the coverage from the AoE ability. But Octane couldn\u2019t clear the gas entirely because another thrown Thermite blocked his path. It\u2019s these kind of synergies that Apex Legends players should take note of in case they find themselves incorporating it into their tactics or simply defending against it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadly Apex Legends Thermite combo makes Caustic\u2019s Nox Gas overpowered Respawn EntertainmentA deadly combo with Apex Legends\u2019 Caustic perfectly combines the character\u2019s suffocating Nox Gas with the explosive firestorm of Thermite grenades to overwhelm enemy teams.
