20 SECRET Tips to get BETTER at XDefiant 🤫

[@puffypoofi482]

That reload animation cancel also works by hitting ADS the moment you push in a new mag into the gun. You'll ads right away with a full mag so it takes out about 0.5 seconds off your entire reload time.

[@IVIrIllusion]

A tip on arena the side walls on top point on occupy you can shoot through those walls if you know someone is just sitting in one of those corners

[@ApathyBZ]

Yes sir! Good tip. I was actually going to show that but I thought about it after I already recorded the video 😅

[@Dustinspeed1]

Don't give all the secrets away.....

[@Xander_Park]

New subscriber here. I like your content, and the fact that you're actually knowledgeable and have experience in a competitive setting makes you light-years better than most other channels covering this game. Much respect, Ggs.

[@ApathyBZ]

Thank you, I appreciate that. I’m going to continue to do what I can and share! 😁

[@sir_smokalot2540]

Everyone complains about the spiders but no complaints about 6 guys in a match using wallhacks is annoying geez they annoy me being spotted all the time takes away any skill

[@Replays1497]

The spider removes way more skill than the radar does, I’d rather deal with that stack than a single person using the spider

[@kplayzxp2376]

I hate invisibility way more than any other ability

[@toddjones268]

Double barrel is completely slept on. Add choke, quick draw and light stock and you've got yourself a good time

[@Krydolph]

In the "secret weaponstats" I like to check out the sprint out time vs ADS time. Sometimes you overfocused on you just need to shoot as fast as possible, and its not bad to have the sprintout time a little faster than ADS time, but no need to overdo it. And same goes the other way around, it is no need you can ADS superfast, if your gun can't shoot when you are done aiming. So if I have overdone it on one those stats, I can either change it around to make it more balanced, or I can remove one of the attachments that gives bonus to the stat I overdid and get some other "bonus" like less recoil or whatever.

[@NyteFalll]

Or for the crouch you can just use the bypass that was found and hold down your left stick like your holding your breath and crouch spam your little hearts away and get no aim sway

[@bravebirdy4544]

In season 1 the got rid of the shooting the spider off your face

[@CoryInTheHouseThatsMe]

Believe it or not, talking on that bullet penetration thing, on Liberty between the spawn in the building and B flag on domination, there is steel tanks that if converted to irl are at least 2m deep and I've been shot through that. That ability cool down thing is almost like legal cheating, that's crazy

[@VeeHausen]

Never ever seen a flashbang coming. :D

[@ApathyBZ]

😂 it is hard to react too but good to know!

[@ChubbyH4ndsOMG]

That was a very helpful video, thank you.

[@joelurena5176]

Awesome man ! Thanks for the tips, very helpful. Can you clarify on the "Super jump"? I cant get it to work for me. I'm I supposed to press the slide button followed by a quick Jump or is it exactly at the same time?

[@themadsuika3909]

The old movement is back? Because i sawna lot of people jump spamming like before

[@optekdesigns]

The spider bot and proximity mine tips were huge....thank you.

Great video cheers

🔥🔥🔥 goated tips sir

[@blakec6046]

Love the video Ap!

[@marshallbaldwin5060]

Not sure if it's a bug but when the spider hugs my face, it likes to reset my aim to look straight ahead until it finishes

[@pasticle]

supposedly flashes where a little bit nerfed but now on season 1 i feel them far more disorienting

[@PatrickHallScreenwriter]

Solid content. 💯

[@gorgangorgan3]

loving the XD Content!

[@StraightcheD]

Thanks, very helpful.

[@dgeneratio1]

Enjoy your content, It's helpful. I can't Strafe due to my Controller settings as too used to a particular layout. Also i feel Echelons and Mag Barriers for me personally is more annoying than Spiderbot.

[@Spladoinkal]

Very helpful man!

[@Capybara_enthusiast]

I love your mustache

[@Jack_Mehoff]

Anyone not know if they’re doing the super jump ? I think I might be sliding too much first How perfectly timed do they have to be ?

[@HawaiiHerbalist]

Tip #21 - If you hold the mag barrier out while getting EMP’ed, you will post drop the mag barrier after getting EMP’ed

[@HawaiiHerbalist]

Another bug I found is if you EMP yourself as you pop your bubble or 5.7 pistol ult, you’ll be able to shoot once then the EMP will cancel/save your ult to use again. Note you have to get the timing perfect, it helps to just while running forward, throw your EMP downwards then pop your ult. It’s a pretty useless bug but might be fun to pull it off in snd in the future.

[@Euphoriv]

New player here level 20 I was wondering what’s better on a AR firepower or mobility?

[@davis7428]

I would say fire power but it depends on what gun you’re using. I personally use an ar when I want to play mid range. It comes down to personal style. I would recommend going into the training center and just experimenting with the mods

[@Lyzerrah]

love your content apathy

[@S4kur4-l9u]

thank you for tips!!!!

[@LedzePx9]

How do you turn on auto attack sprint ON like you said at 8:42 ?

[@Remu-]

Is there a setting or any way to fix the thing when you reload during a sprint and your character stops sprinting? I have autosprint on and you can reload while sprinting but it requires you to hold down the sprint button during the whole reload animation which can get tiring during long sessions. This is on controller btw. On MnK with hold sprint your character just keeps sprinting during reloads.

[@ApathyBZ]

im pretty sure there is a setting that sprint cancels the reload (im assuming this is what you are talking about) turn that off. I hate that too, love being able to sprint around while reloading.

[@Remu-]

@@ApathyBZ I think it should be turned off for me but I'll try it in both positions and see if it makes a difference. There has been other settings that work backwards so definitely worth a try. Thanks!

[@Remu-]

@@ApathyBZ I found a fix! Changing Sprint Behaviour from 'hold' to 'tap' let's me reload without interrupting the sprint. What a weird fix since I'm using autosprint anyway.

[@_TheTacticalGamer]

You just made unlocking samir way easier

[@airbuss1]

the xdefiant background music trolled me so bad

[@theapexroom]

Nice pink hair really digging it

[@semaar7]

Was that turn around when you see a Flash a patch recently? Because my Flashbangs are glitched still then.

[@semaar7]

Also ProTip 19.5. With that Deadsec ult. You will notice for 1ish maybe 1.5 seconds after you pop it. There are white lines going through the map and all of those lines are tagged to the location of each and every player affected by the ult. AKA you have a pseudo wall hack on Deadsec.

[@Ron742_]

Can't decide which is more annoying, the wall hacks or the suicide fire bombers, both of which are either not possible or hard to counter.

[@382bc2]

You forgot about spider bots

[@Ron742_]

@@382bc2 Oh, I'm aware. I was referencing the thumbnail. Yes, spider bots are probably the most annoying. And worst, they're bugged. They can shock you before an actual jump. Such a lame ability, IDK what they were thinking adding that.

[@lEducateU]

Hey man I’m shooting straight down at spider bots it never works

[@soliderack]

Who tf was playing with crouch toggle to begin with

[@seductive5248]

Not crouch spamming losers like you

[@wierwulf0]

not playing it until they get some anticheat..that will help

[@richardhartanto1701]

its 25 damage if you crouch by the bouncing betty if ppl wondering

[@sithlordinosuke8462]

Nothing passes concrete or corners, but everything passes wood walls and single metal sheets. Good note

[@zickan0826]

The only tip u need is to get a controller and start sweating and u will be fine

Proxy Mines does 25 damage if you are crouched near it.

[@getthistechnow3910]

This game on condolence is pathetically easy. Try it on PC

[@SerkeysTV]

Only reason is that aim assist isnt as strong as it is in your average cod games. So within a year just like r6s people/top players will noticeably be on mnk

[@alekai__]

Bruh have you played? Xd aim assist is beyond strong. In fact it's so strong at times that you actually can't adjust your aim because it's locked on so hard.

[@asdfghjkl2261]

@@alekai__yeah Ap brought up his settings on stream the other day and both of his aim assist strength settings were at -2, I.e., LESS aim assist

[@CameOutOfNoWher]

@@mtwjotschy1076 why am I a cry baby I don’t have issues slaying them your trolling, and I’m being legit honest when gaming switch to cross play with pc was the beginning of the end. Honestly who doesn’t miss mlg days of social media was popping off back then n esports was also then it could have been massive here by now.. yet what happened was the allow pc gamers to play with console players and the hacks, cheats , just simple advantage because of software. Is simply inexcusable I was poor like grew up section 8 housing welfare baby and I ran off base package internet and went pro changed my life the simple fact that someone wins because image is clear n processing faster not that there better but pay to win needs to stop in esports flat out .! missing real talent that doesn’t come from money.

[@MoIds0]

So ur the reason all these trash cans are using cleaners

[@hsdurfee]

XDefiant casuals are the worst, they literally refuse to learn how to play the game and want it to be a military sim apparently lol. Why don’t these guys just play CS? Oh wait they can’t aim and have no fundamentals so they get shit on in those style of FPS too. You aren’t as good as you think, I know that hurts, but everyone was there. They just put in the effort to get better

[@davis7428]

Thanks man keep telling it how it is. I hate that the second we get a semi movement based game everyone complains

[@SerkeysTV]

The sooner people move to mnk the better they'll be. This games gonna have a full switch within a year. Atm controller is just you cod players being use to such things, but once people realize that mnk is just better there will be a big switch.

[@alekai__]

Now you just seem like a controller hater lol

[@JHayes90]

Until there is mouse support on console that wont happen chief. Even when that does happen, these "sweaty" kids will never switch. They want to jump around corners and have their crosshair land right on you and stick. Because they think that's normal.

[@drorig9034]

jumping is total broken with netcode. The speed u see ppl do the fast jump is way faster than the ppl do it. So they shoot u before u even see the animation. octante calls it skill gap i call it broken useless game sorry guy.

[@HudsonKy]

Disliked

[@drorig9034]

Facts can t be disliked but ok bro keep dreaming

[@pasticle]

i mean it can easily be both, since in a perfect scenario it is a skill gap but sometimes 0 ping fuckers with mp7 if they hit only headshot you will in fact die before you could even ads. what this game needs it's to be snappier, having more animation cancelling and less imput negation. you sometimes can't throw grenades and need to press it again if you where having a lot of imputs at the same, others you can use your skill mid air and other you can't and you see half the animation. if you use the ghosts barrier you sometimes throw it when you're dead, etc. if the game were to be more responsive it would be a little bet easier to deal with netcode+ping issues, and sadly i don't see that changing, i just can't think of ubisoft as good developers since in the mechanical aspect all their games feel like ass. in xdefiant for example climbing a ladder feels worse than idk cod world at war
