This is why communication as a Vantage player is so important. When using her ultimate ability, you should be aiming to tell your teammates who you\u2019re tagging and try to set up a team fire. You\u2019ll quickly notice with this tip that you\u2019ll be gaining advantages in fights, through simple coordination and communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip #2 &#8211; Planning Ahead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Vantage has great escape and engage potential with her tactical ability Echo Relocation. One thing that not all Vantage players consider is that her Echo companion can be pre-placed before it needs to be used. This is particularly useful in defensive situations when you want to push a team. Let\u2019s say you want to round a corner to chase down a player you got low. This is a risky play, and Echo Relocation can be a great tool to ensure you don\u2019t overextend and lose your life. When utilizing this tip, you must maintain a line of sight with Echo, so if you\u2019re pre-placing the companion, make sure <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/apex-legends\/learn-these-epic-movement-mechanics-in-apex-legends\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Learn These Epic Movement Mechanics In Apex Legends\">to actively move it as you advance in the fight<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vantage is a legend that brought long range sniping and mobility to Apex Legends.
