Re: Players Boosting in Apex

@s0apt0ken I actually had a friend try this 3 seasons ago. Entire match him and another friend traded dmg till it was time to fight a team. ( this was more for science learning / testing) but the highest dmg he could obtain was 1700 dmg entire game trading with a friend.

As i mentioned the game just wont provide enough heals for this to carry on. They tried it for 8 diff games with zero success of even gaining 2k. Why I find this post odd as it literally will not gain them anything.

    I dont think this as a huge issue: if we do the math, it would require 160 shield cells and/or syringes or combination with 40 batteries and or medkits for two persons to  farm a 4k dmg badge this way. OR if we use heal drone with lifeline, you could farm max 200 damage per minute this way. 

    So however you try to this, in diffrent combination of shield/health heals consumption and heal drones, it will take forever to actually reach the high tier damage badges. Now add to this that you must collect said heals before you do it.  Even if two teaming teams drop in an entire city alone, and spend the first round to just collect all heals, it will still be so much work to it and as soon as they start shooting, they will be third partied for sure....

    @E9ine_AC Try 5 guys doing this to boost one player (that was the only time I've witnessed people actually getting a ban for this stuff, guess a lot of people witnessed it unfold... ) As the only solo queuer on the team, I was the first "sacrifice" for this gang of schmucks...

    Still, I think you miss the point. The number of people in on it doesn't matter too much since it all comes down to the required heals (shields/syringes) and time (takes a long time to collect all that). By the time you have enough heals to actually reach 2k dmg +, their will be some enemy squad close to hear you when you start shooting, even if you jumped far away from the flight path.

    @Balladalidila When you have 5 people scavenging every heal item around, team up 5 vs 3 when encountering hostiles, and having a Lifeline and a Wattson doing their thing, the result is a high damage score for the player being boosted. If I had recordings of the debacle, I'd be more than happy to show you, but I'm just a lowly casual who play for my own entertainment...
