Since it is the holiday season, that means many people have time off to play Apex Legends<\/em><\/strong> or have even gotten a new system to play it on. This uptick in players means an uptick in new discoveries in the game. Some are more bugs than features, like the infinite slide exploit on PC that was discovered a few days ago<\/a>. Now someone shared a trick the other day that helps deal with those pesky knockdown shields.<\/p>\n

While this\u00a0Apex Legends<\/em><\/a> trick shared on the ApexUniversity subreddit isn\u2019t necessarily new, it must have been useful to many, as the post has garnered almost 2,000 upvotes and nearly 90 comments. After knocking an enemy, instead of destroying the enemy\u2019s knockdown shield or trying to work around it, poster bert4925 suggests entering into a finisher on the enemy before immediately canceling it. Most players when having a finisher done to them will let set the controller down or release the shield button, giving an opportunity for the other player to quickly shoot an unshielded enemy.<\/p>\n

The replies seem to be very appreciative of this tip, with many commenting that they cannot believe they had never thought to do this themselves. One commenter reminded everyone though that if knocked, one should never release their shield button until a finisher has reached a point where it is no longer cancellable, to avoid this happening to them.<\/p>\n
