Rampart and Gibraltar Make for a Deadly Duo in Apex Legends Season 6
By Nathan Fusco
Rampart arrived in Season 6 alongside new map changes on World's Edge, and while the new Legend is fairly popular, her teamwork is still being discovered. Redditor Trans4mer123 shows a pretty clear reason why she needs to pair with Gibraltar.
If you can plant the shield and gun turret perfectly, it's a broken concept.
It's hard to tell if Respawn wanted something like this to work, or if it simply slipped through testing. But if you plant the machine gun turret directly at the edge of the bubble, players can fire the gun while being completely protected by the Gibraltar shield. It doesn't even limit the range in which the gun can fire and when you watch from the perspective of Rampart, the shield isn't even in the field of vision. There seems to be absolutely no downside to this.
The Apex Legends community will find out shortly if this will be allowed by Respawn or if they will look to nerf this partnership.
