Why Wattson\u2019s pylon ability is \u201ceating\u201d grenades in Apex Legends Respawn Entertainment\/EAAfter players seem to be confused about the Apex Legends character Wattson \u201ceating\u201d grenades, a fan has taken to Reddit to explain just exactly what is going on \u2013 and the answer is a bit more complicated than it might seem at first glance. [jwplayer rSmq5Fo4] Confusing special abilities are always bound to happen, especially in games like Apex Legends, where every characters ability is different. Wattson, who has been a part of the game since Season 2, is a perfect example of a character who has some crazy abilities, but can be a bit confusing for some players. For those that don\u2019t know, she can place down an \u201cInterception Pylon\u201d which blocks incoming grenades, equipment, etc. in order to protect you, similar to a Trophy System from the Call of Duty franchise. Some people have been confused by this ability, claiming it\u2019s destroying or \u201ceating\u201d their own grenades, which is definitely a bit peculiar. Now, thanks to a player, there\u2019s finally a decent explanation for what\u2019s going on. Interception Pylon eating grenades? According to Reddit user u\/Jameso4e, who is a self-proclaimed Wattson main with 3,500 kills, there two different circles which appear when a player places the Pylon, one that destroys only \u201cincoming\u201d grenades\/equipment and one that destroys all of them. The outer rings is the one that destroys all equipment, meaning players should be looking to avoid standing near that one when throwing their grenades inside of the two circles. In layman\u2019s terms, you\u2019ll have to watch where you\u2019re positioned if you don\u2019t want the Pylon to \u201ceat\u201d your grenades. In a video made by Jameso4e demonstrating the problem, players can very clearly see two circles. When he stands closer to the inner circle, he has no problem throwing grenades out but when he stands near the outer circle, the equipment gets \u201ceaten\u201d. While that may sound a bit confusing at first, once you practice, it seems to be pretty easy to master. As to why the ability causing this, nobody really knows, but the user theorizes that it\u2019s due to bugs. It\u2019s been over a year since Wattson was added to the game, so here\u2019s hoping that now that the ability has been explained, more people understand it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
