Apex Legends: how to complete the Gauntlet Quest

– Season 5 of brought weekly PvE quests – and now it’s that time again. Today we take a look at number five of the Broken Ghost questline.

The Broken Ghost is the quest of the current – Season . Respawn recently introduced PvE content to help you unwind from the usual PvP. Each completed quest unlocks rewards and delivers more to the Apex Lore.

This week, you have to go on a quest to find the adrenaline junkie Octane. The Gauntlet takes place in the area inside and around Bunker Pass. The loadout consists of a wingman and P2020. You can find everything lying on the ground near a Death Box with a Mozambique.

Whether you want that or not is up to you, however we recommend having the Wingman with you on this hunt. When you enter Bunker Pass, Gibby will tell you that you activate a lot of panels. In the complex, you should take it a little slower (you have 8 minutes, which is more than enough).
After all, it only takes two body shots or a single head shot with the wingman for a prowler. Once you’ve kicked in the doors, killed the prowlers and activated the panels, the exit at the other end of the bunker opens.

When you are outside, you will be attacked again by prowlers. Of course, you have to take them out as well. To make the whole thing easier, it’s best to climb over the drill and get the golden equipment. Now activate the harvester and try to stay alive. The prowlers are shadow versions. Fortunately, it only takes one body shot to kill them.

After you have the artifact, you just have to run to the dropship right in front of you. This completes the quest and you learn a bit more about the lore. Curious? This video reveals quite a bit about it:

– Season 5 of Apex Legends has been pretty successful so far and the PvE mode certainly plays a role in that. Respawn Entertainment has noticed the interest in the mode and will certainly continue to work on it.

What is actually… “Apex Legends?

Within 24 hours, “Apex Legends” became the most-watched game on Twitch – after one week, over 25 million people were already playing it. What is the battle royale shooter about?

What is “Apex Legends” about?

Scenario: In a distant future, bandits, adventurers, and outlaws settle their disputes in a sporting contest to the death. The setting is a fertile, industrially developed valley on the edge of the galaxy.

  • Genre: Battle Royale shooter
  • Game modes: survival battle between a maximum of 20 teams of three.

At its core, “Apex Legends” is a classic battle-royale shooter: up to 60 players land simultaneously in teams of three on the game map called “Kings Canyon” – a densely built-up, fertile valley with many accessible houses, bunkers and towers. Once on the ground, unarmed players must search their surroundings for equipment and ammunition. The goal of the game is to stay alive until the end.

To prevent players from hiding all over the map and waiting to automatically be the last one left, the game area shrinks every few minutes. The longer a round lasts, the smaller the area where survivors can move and hide.

Apex Legends refreshes this now classic game formula with some ideas that are unique to the genre: For example, before starting a round, players select one of eight heroes, each of which has two special abilities and facilitates certain play styles.

Bangalore, for example, is the classic soldier who can conceal her position with smoke grenades and call in an artillery strike in an emergency. The heroine Lifeline, on the other hand, can summon a drone to heal teammates – or directly order the delivery of high-value weapons and equipment via aerial drone. This way, all players can find the right hero for their preferred course of action.

How can I play Apex Legends?

Platform: “Apex Legends” is available for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.

Price: The battle royale shooter is a “Free to Play” title and can basically be played for free on all platforms.

In-game purchases: “Apex Legends” allows the purchase of cosmetic items and new heroes either by means of in-game currency, which can be earned for free in every round, or with real money. The real-money currency “Apex Coins” can be purchased in five different amounts: The smallest possible amount is 1000 Apex Points for around 9.99 euros, while the largest pack with 10,000 Apex Points content costs 99.99 euros.

The developer emphasizes that it is not possible to buy game advantages with the help of real money: You can only use it to customize the appearance of the heroes, it says, or purchase new heroes.

Age rating: “Apex Legends” does not have a youth rating (USK 18).

Which technical terms should you know?

Respawn Beacon: If a player is shot down, the team members who are still alive have the opportunity to bring the fallen comrade back into the game: Each eliminated player leaves behind a so-called Respawn Banner, which can be collected by the players of the own team and handed in at one of 28 Respawn Beacons, certain on the map. If this succeeds, the fallen player returns to the game.

Jumpmaster: At the beginning of the game, one of the maximum three players of a team always takes on the role of the jumpmaster. He decides when and where his team enters the game area.

Ping: Using the middle mouse button, players can alert their teammates to interesting locations in the game world or enemies. These pings are a valuable tool for communicating quickly and efficiently within the team.
