How is this Fuse blatantly cheating in Apex Ranked

I was playing ranked and noticed that this Fuse was taking no damage while driving around in a Trident. The Fuse kept ramming myself and my team, until we got wiped. I spectated the rest of the match, where he continued to drive right in the middle of every fight taking no damage until he was one of the last two teams and they waited for the ring to close. The Fuse eventually lost to the full team after the ring closed on him in the Trident. This is so unfortunate that this stuff is rampant even in rank and it’s such a pain to even try and report him since I could t spectate the Fuse specifically. I’ve attached several clips that shows the game ID and what took place during the match.

Side note: Amy explanation as to why I did over 2.5k damage with Octane in a match and didn’t get the 2.5k damage badge??? Also attached pictures of the that situation.

  • I wasn’t able to attach the videos I took of the cheating that took place, but if someone can let me know where to send them I will. Instead, I uploaded a picture of the match ID of when the incident took place.

    Hey @BoomRoasted5360,

    Sorry for the frustration that caused. This particular exploit has absolutely already been passed along so the team can address it as quickly as possible given the impact it can have, thanks!

  • Thank you, Mako! I guess it’s the first time I’ve encountered it.

    Any advice on the other issue regarding not getting the 2.5k damage badge based off of the pictures provided?

  • It would also be great to see that Fuse get banned for that type of behavior, not just fix the exploit.

    Hi @BoomRoasted5360,

    It does seem to be relatively new, but hopefully we can address that before it becomes too widespread.

    As far as the damage badge, the support team does not have a way to grant individual badges at this time, but we have been seeing a number of similar reports recently and this is currently under investigation.

    You can keep an eye out over at the bug report thread here as we get any additional info to share!

  • Not gonna lie, this Trident thing is getting ridiculous! I played three RANKED matches in a row tonight where people were using the trident exploit. They are even teaming up with other teams. The last match that was the final straw, was when a full team of three each had their own Trident causing the game to be so unbearably frustrating to play that I am going to stop playing until this is fixed. You can’t even report them 99% of the time because it doesn’t let you spectate! I am so annoyed that I’ve worked this hard to get close to Diamond just to lose points constantly from this behavior!

  • Another day, another ranked game, and another Trident cheater! Can’t Respawn just disable the maps with Tridents already???
