Small change to Armor in Apex Legends would be perfect for shield swaps Respawn EntertainmentIf you\u2019ve been baited one too many times and are sick of collecting broken shields in Apex Legends, one fan has devised the perfect fix. While abilities and gunplay are crucial to dominating in Apex Legends, the impact that shields have can\u2019t be understated. In a pinch, having the highest tier of shield can truly be the difference between life and death. It seems that there might be some balancing for the coveted items coming in the future, though, as one Respawn dev has asked the community for their feedback on the game\u2019s armor. Responses largely implied that players like the current state of the shields, but only time will tell if the devs decide to change it. A simple quality of life adjustment has come in the form of an interesting Reddit concept, which, if implemented, could make life a little bit easier. Solution to picking up broken armor One of the most frustrating things is finding what you think is a fresh red or gold armor, only to loot them and find that they\u2019ve been totally depleted. While this might not matter if you\u2019ve got time and shield batteries, if you\u2019re in a pinch that glowing armor isn\u2019t going to help much. To solve this issue, one fan has devised a simple fix that would make depleted armor a lot clearer to other players. \u201cWhat if cracked\/depleted Evo Shields stopped glowing to indicate they have no shield left,\u201d they write, calling their idea \u201ca small QoL change.\u201d However, despite its simplicity, this would make things a lot easier for players. If you have time to pick up that red armor and recharge it then great, but if you\u2019re using gold armor and have only taken a couple of hits, it might not be worth it. With over 5k upvotes and 100 comments at the time of writing, players overwhelmingly agree that this seemingly tiny change could have a major impact on how the game pans out. Respondents have praised the post for being a \u201cgood idea,\u201d with one even suggesting that Respawn go a step further and \u201cstop Loba\u2019s ultimate picking up broken shields over full shields.\u201d Will this be something we see in the future? Only time will tell. Until then, though, make sure you always double-check that any new shields you\u2019ve picked up are charged, otherwise you\u2019re just a walking \u201cskin bag,\u201d to quote Revenant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
