Apex Legends Bangalore Tips and Tricks [Advance]

To the greatest extent, Bangalore is an indigenous trooper. She got a tinny hit box, extremely powerful Passive, with the help of her primary ability she comes with very solid, secure and safe escape mechanism.

In Apex Legends, Bangalore comes with super powerful ultimate ability with  an exceptional segmentation tool that would be used offensively and defensively in late game.

According to Digits Guide, Bangalore is the best playing legend in the game right now. Well, let’s dig little bit more about her abilities and their stats:

Passive Ability- Double Time

Taking fire while sprinting makes you move faster for a brief time.

Bangalore’s Passive Ability comes with 25% instant speed boost when ever you got hit by someone or catch by fire.

You will get speed boost for 2 seconds only but still this passive ability is very powerful and useful in both offensive and defensive approach.

It has around 10 seconds cooldown though we do not have exact amount or figure of it for now.

Taking fire while sprinting makes you move faster for a brief time.

Tactical Ability Smoke Launcher

Bangalore’s Smoke Launcher is significantly a very adaptable, flexible, handy and rewarding ability.

As we already know, Smoke Launcher is our primary or tactical ability Fire a high-velocity smoke canister that explodes into a smoke wall on impact.

It has very low cooldown of 33 seconds and smoke stays there at least for 15 seconds.

So, in short, Bangalore’s Smoke Launcher can make and break your entire game and team.

Because With the help of smoke launcher we can just blur the screen of other players and freeze out of visibility for few seconds.

In addition, Smoke Launcher also deals around 10-12 damage to target.

Ultimate Ability – Rolling Thunder

Call in an artillery strike that slowly creeps across the landscape.

Rolling Thunder fills out the entire ground with explosive and fires and it’s on of the most powerful ultimate ability of the game if optimize in proper way.

Each and every air strike deals around 40 damages which probably lasts for 8-10 seconds. Explosives lats for 5 seconds with cool down time of 270 seconds.

With the help of Bangalore’s passive ability double time you can simply consider her as one of the best character to play in apex legends undisputed.

While we do not have any kind of tool to measure its exact cool down time but it does proc multiple times in fight in different scenarios.

As we discussed above, if she takes damage while sprinting than it will proc a speed boost buff to her (not permanently).

If she gets hit by an enemy or team, than she can simply get speed boost and hide herself or heal herself for while.

So, definitely,  a very solid and powerful defensive tool in her arsenal if you really know how to use it. 🙂 You can even go offensive with this ability.

Lets say, if an enemy or team is aiming, targeting and firing at Bangalore with poor DMG gears and weapons, Then, You just need to get an awesome position with the help of speed boost and attack the enemy/team with your own team.

Taking fire while sprinting makes you move faster for a brief time. Just try be badass and violent as much as you can. No need to go back and sit behind wall/door.  If you go in that way than you are simply going waste her passive ability from core. That’s it.

Expeditiously, While going ahead, you find yourself in enemies trap and in really poor position than you can simply need to find out safe place and need to proc Bangalore’s Double Time speed boost to reach out there safely as quick as possible.

And again while going forward, if you hit with fire damage than it will eventually proc speed boost passive. This time you can use this buff to reposition yourself with speed boost which gives you huge advantage to do a massive damage from unexpected perspective.

Either way, You just need to go agile, quick and get engaged with enemies very quickly. And you always need to combine your speed boost passive ability with pair of quick and rapid guns likes of Shotguns and SMG’s for quick, heavy and better damage in close combat situation.

You don’t even have to be hit to proc this. I don’t know if this is intended or what, but sometimes just having bullets go past me seems to do it.

Smoke Launcher is one of the most destructive, powerful, and perhaps the most useful primary ability of Apex Legends. This tactical ability can be used in both areas like defense and offense with ease.

It can be used as cover as well as an ultimate offensive strategic weapon to blind the enemy with blur screen to force sudden team attack on small or big party in stealth way.

The Smoke Launcher is very handy and extremely helpful, whenever your ally is down to death (but not dead). Fire a smoke canister just in front of your teammate and it will generate a kind of wall of smoke and cover you and your ally so you can easily revive your fallen teammate.

When you get yourself involved in open fire with enemies as we know some map locations are too open to start an open gang war type scenario.

You can shoot a smoke launcher in the middle of a fight as cover to avoid incoming damage.

It will also give a chance to your mates to sneak around the different locations of the zone and map. And that’s how we can use Smoke Launcher as an awesome Flanking Tool.

As you know everything comes with some drawbacks as well as so the same goes with a smoke launcher too.

So, you just need to be careful while using a smoke launcher between fights as other teams can definitely use this ability against you from other zone/spaces and clinch cloaking benefits.   

Duration

You can use Smoke Launchers on regular basis again and again as it comes with a very short cool-down period which is counted as 32 seconds only. You can take benefit of this short cool-down period during an ambush as well as while shielding.

After having some advantages of smoke launcher in defensive game plan, Now we are going to discuss bit of offensive blueprint:

• First of all, You can use a smoke launcher to conquer an enemy or entire team hiding behind building or surface.
• Make a space and situation for your team to impel the opposition audaciously
• As we already discussed in defensive strategy Smoke Launcher has 32 seconds cool down with 2 charges. So, try to use them as much as possible on regular encounters to utilize smoke launcher at its best.
• Most important and effective way to optimize smoke launcher is to combine it with Digital Threat. This makes it almost undisputed champ in battle arena As you can mark your enemies and teams with the help of Digital Threat and can easily target them with absolute firing and aiming. No Match “Deadly Combo” -Smoke Launcher + Digital Threat- and -Smoke Launcher + Bloodhound-.

Along with a very short cool down and 2 quick charges Smoke Launcher also has a very long range and durability. You can implement this strategy in your game plan anytime with ease.

If you really wanna see how you can create an instant offensive zone with the help of a quick smoke launcher then just watch out for this video.

Seemingly, The ultimate ability of Bangalore named The Rolling Thunder seems to be one of the best ultimate ability of entire game. But eventually, that is not the case in real.

Most of the people use it in very wrong way or with different approach. In real, Bangalore’s ultimate ability The Rolling Thunder barely manage to do hard and push damage to users.

Basically, it’s more zoning tool very much similar to Bangalore’s Smoke Launcher.  

Rolling Thunder is also very useful ability for defense as well as offense.  As we already discuss about primary ability of Bangalore, her ultimate ability also works very similar to primary ability.

Rolling Thunder can be used in situations like:

• If there is a fight going on and opposition party seems to be in command then you just need to drop an ultimate ability in between and retreat.
• If you see enemies are retreating and dealing lots more damage than you can simply drop an ultimate ability over them as Bangalore’s ultimate ability comes with widest AOE  damage which deals decent damage in open place.
• Rolling Thunder can force enemies to move out and disperse away from favorable areas. One of the best approach if its been implemented properly.
• If you are facing hard time fight and push attack from enemies.  Then you can again simply throw an ultimate ability over them it will slow down their  movement speed. Then you can actually change the gear and turn the course of the fight by getting into proper position at once.
• As rule of thumb and even its simple description inside game Rolling Thunder works only in open area. If you try to target players/teams inside building it would never works. So, you need to get them out and boom with an ultimate power of Bangalore.
• If you get trapped in enemies group and got yourself far away from your team. Then just drop your Rolling Thunder to escape from tense situation and run away to safe zone.

These are just normal situations and example where you can use and implement Ultimate ability of Bangalore.

There may be different situations and positions for you to implement Rolling Thunder defensively or aggressively depends on your game play style for sure.

But yes, ultimate ability can be used in defensive way or in offensive way. Neither of them is bad choice at all.
