Apex Legends player shows how Pathfinder’s Grapple can win you games
EAPathfinder’s Grappling Hook is a handy tool to get you from Point A to Point B in Apex Legends, however it can also secure you a victory in hilarious fashion if your timing is just right.
While Pathfinder doesn’t drop into battle with the most aggressive abilities in the game, there’s no denying that the Support Legend can come in clutch throughout the final moments of a match.
With an emphasis on mobility, it’s exceptionally rare for Pathfinder to secure a kill on behalf of his tools yet this amusing final showdown demonstrated just how powerful the Grappling Hook can be.
