Rampart abilities explained
Here’s everything you need to know about Rampart’s abilities in Apex Legends:
Use Amped Cover to reach higher ground
Besides blocking projectiles, bounding over Amped Cover also lets you climb hard-to-reach platforms and balconies. So place your walls near the high ground in case your squad needs to reposition.
Rampart’s wall can also be used for a ‘Super Glide’. So keep that in mind when an enemy gets too close.
Regain ult charge by toggling “fire-mode”
Sheila brings a ton of firepower to every teamfight. But did you know that you can exchange a low-ammo turret for a percentage of Rampart’s ult charge?
Press the ammo select fire/fire mode button with mobile Sheila out to regain up to 75% ult charge. This is especially useful when you’re low on ammo and/or want to build another ultimate before the next fight.
Always pick up your walls
Picking up Rampart’s Amped Covers lets you use them longer, saving time on your cooldowns.
If a wall gets destroyed, it takes 20 seconds until you get another Amped Cover charge. Instead, constantly reuse the walls you put down (when you can) to maximize their usage.
Recycling a wall also gives you an advantage when you push through open areas. This requires some practice and good keybinds (do what feels right for you).
Once you get the hang of it, you’ll be soloing squads in no time.
Hide Shiela’s laser
Rampart’s ultimate is her greatest asset. It provides the highest rate of fire out of any gun in Apex Legends and has relatively stable recoil. That said, it does have one small drawback: its laser sight.
Holding corners is essential in most late-game skirmishes. But the visible laser can be a dead giveaway if you have your minigun out.
So, always be mindful of where you point Sheila, and you’ll only need to worry about the noise she makes.
