When it comes to Apex Legends\u2019 diverse pool of characters, Caustic has been pushed towards the lower tiers. Not necessarily worthless or undesirable, he is certainly not as strong as some of the most picked Legends \u2013 like Wraith or Pathfinder. The Toxic Trapper\u2019s entire skillset revolves around his Nox Gas concoction, but it\u2019s more frustrating to opponents, rather than game-ending. However, one dedicated Caustic player has shared a high IQ play, that instantly makes his Tactical Ability more viable, and powerful. The Nox Gas Traps can often be seen littering corridors and encouraging diversions, but Redditor \u2018EverecOlgierd\u2018 shared a genius placement for them \u2013 on top of doorways. Veteran Apex players will know that dropping items on top of open doorways causes the items to bind to them. This is actually a neat trick to destroy high-value items that your team does not want. Leaving a Nox Gas Trap on top of a door has the same effect, and means that you can close the door with the trap in place directly above it. This, as you may expect, means any player running through the doorway will set off the trap and be doused in the toxic gas. What makes this even more powerful is that, from the opposite side of the door to where the trap was placed, there is no indication a Gas Trap has been placed, meaning enemies will not suspect they are about to run into an ambush. Smart positioning around these doors will also benefit players, as weakened enemies will be especially easy to finish off. The traps can also be used to give warnings of enemy approaches. It\u2019s one of the smarter plays we\u2019ve seen and adds another layer of power to Caustic\u2019s Nox Gas Traps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High IQ Apex Legends play makes Caustic Gas Traps even deadlier Respawn EntertainmentOne Redditor has shared a genius Apex Legends trick, which takes Caustic\u2019s Nox Gas Traps to the next level as the ultimate ambush tool against advancing enemies.
