New Apex Legends bug is making Gibraltar even more useless than he normally is Respawn EntertainmentPlayers are starting to find that not all characters in Apex Legends bring the same kind of firepower to a fight. Legends like Gibraltar specialize in providing defensive support to squads, but a new bug is making that impossibly difficult. Respawn Entertainment landed on a gold mine when they released their battle royale on February 4 which was quickly welcomed by millions of players. But the developers have been feeling growing pains as game-breaking bugs and persistent hackers plague their game. Now a new bug has been making its way around the Apex servers that makes it incredibly easy to penetrate Gibraltar\u2019s main line of defense. New bug has cracked the Shielded Fortress In a Reddit post, user \u2018__ayydrian__\u2019 showed a bug with Gibraltar\u2019s tactical ability Dome of Protection that\u2019s letting more than a few shots pass through as if it wasn\u2019t even there. The Dome of Protection let\u2019s the players \u201cthrow down a dome shield that blocks attacks for 15 seconds.\u201d But it didn\u2019t even take 3 seconds for ayydrian to realize that their squad wasn\u2019t completely safe under the bubble shield. After placing the Dome of Protection on the steps of their building, the protection wrapped the room where it covered a teammate taking fire. As the Gibraltar was moving in to give support, the player is clearly behind the protection of the dome when they take a shot from the outside. That was just the tip of the bug\u2019s power. Moments laters, another opponent using a Havoc was reigning down on the squad with a barrage of bullets that made its way through the dome with ease. Can the Havoc shoot through Gibraltar\u2019s shield? Although the Apex developers gave the Havoc along with all Energy guns an added effect to them, there isn\u2019t a known mechanic that would let it penetrate the Dome of Protection as easily as it does in the clip. The bug was able to confuse a ton of players in the Reddit thread, with some thinking the cause of the effect was the placement of the shield. \u201cSince building floors are set on a box above terrain this allows this to happen,\u201d Reddit user \u2018treydv3\u2019 guessed. \u201cThe guy firing was outside standing on the ground, while the shield was set inside the building. I dunno what I\u2019m saying\u2026\u201d Gibraltar\u2019s Dome of Protection bug is a perplexing occurrence, and one that the team at Respawn Entertainment are sure to take a closer look to patch it up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
