  • Tactical: Grappling Hook
  • Passive: Insider Knowledge

This robot is everyone's best friend. Pathfinder is a juvenile bot looking to make friends… in a bloodsport. Besides his odd choices, he is equipped with the best grappling and movement technology in the outlands.

Pathfinder is always there to pick up his teammates when they are down. The robot makes sure to compliment his squad at whatever chance he gets.

He provides them with constant help by providing movement through the map.

Path has one of the best abilities in the game. Using his tactical, the grappling hook, he has movement, unlike any other Legend. The ability lets Pathfinder take to the skies.

Octane is Apex’s most fun addition. The speed demon has always been a highly-picked legend and, as of late, is the highest-picked legend in the game. That's not just because of his moveset but also due to his amusing personality.

Octavio always has the rush. He has to be the fastest and most energetic person in his team. His obsession with speed led him to use the hazardous drug, stim to keep him on his toes constantly. The daredevil wears a dialysis belt to synthesize his overdose of the drug continuously. He does not care. He has to be fast.

Octane’s stim provides a temporary speed boost at the cost of some of his health. Even with that little disadvantage, the speed boost offers a rush.
