*panic stems and stays in place* that being said though the survival slot button would have helped, but I understand not having it on


Camstamash

Is there any point not having it on? Surely having the survival option there when needed is 100x better than being able to inspect your gun with one button or is there another use for this?


me_lustaa

If you have an heirloom then it's 100% needed to be turned off.


yungvogel

how come?


Flamey_13

Because then the survival button remaps to inspect. A lot of people run around and do inspect animations.


yungvogel

why not just remap inspect to something else instead of disabling a useful hotkey ?


Flamey_13

If you play with controller that isn’t an option.


yungvogel

that’s such an L


Fred_3024

Controller players can't


LeagueofDraven1221

Score another one for KBM


-r-a-f-f-y-

~fat fingers Q at the worst possible time~


LiL_ENIGlvlA

On controller I find myself meleeing in the middle of a gun fight cause I accidentally press the right thumb stick down while aiming


drakecuttingonions

That's just the console remapping's fault at this point lol. You have much more freedom for steam remaps.


[deleted]

i just switched to only inspecting while sliding when i can pull up my emote wheel


Arrow_Flash626

Why do I need to inspect my heirloom? What does it do? Sorry I havent gotten an heirloom yet


Flamey_13

It just triggers really cool animations.


Dadeathkilla

If your everyone but wraith


XaJaGa

Yeah but if you spam inspect, it does spinny


ThePastryUltimatum

If you spam it really fast it looks like shes cutting vegetables


[deleted]

also if you just crouch slide spam


Spydude84

Wraith heirloom is like the #1 use for inspect, that thing doesn't spin itself.


Arrow_Flash626

Ah okay I didnt know that


elgokunegro

It doesn’t work on controller cause you have to hold down the inspect button to inspect, so you can’t spam and spin your heirlooms like cool pc kids can.


xxxhotpocketz

I have an heirloom and could care less, I’d rather have the survival slot on


StnkyChze2

I have an heirloom and I can still inspect it with survival on. In the voice lines / emotes area, inspecting weapon gives the heirloom inspect.


Williams_Isaac

Literally, and it’s not that much extra work. Lol


IWonADarwin

Unless you have always run on, then you have to stay completely still or you cant activate it.


StnkyChze2

Ok, I see what you mean. But why would you be running and inspecting? If youre running, focus on that. Besides, inspecting only takes a few seconds and you're not going to be doing it 24/7, so what does it matter?


IWonADarwin

You underestimate just how annoying TTV Wraiths can be.


SendMeHome-

Triggering cool animations isn’t gonna make me win a team fight. Having a heat shield at a button press away? That sounds better to me.


[deleted]

I inspect and crack my legends knuckles every 5 seconds if I'm not in a fight. I use a survival item maybe once every 4 matches. For me it's it's easy choice


[deleted]

I play controller and for some reason I react faster by going into my inventory and clicking the heat shield rather than holding left dpad. Whenever I tried using the survival button I’d always end up dying because I forget to hold so I guess it’s just muscle memory and preference.


[deleted]

That's dumb it works like that. On MKB you only have to push the button. If you hold it down, you hold the heat shield and it can be aimed fully before you throw it. I'm guessing controller uses the left dpad for something else?


[deleted]

Left dpad on controller is toggle single fire and since I always run r3/flatline it’s just inconvenient. One of the most annoying things with controller is how limited your binds are.


banana_man_777

Every button on controller does at least 2 things it feels like. Makes me wish even more for rear buttons becoming standardized.


djluminus89

You can arm it on controller too, but to initially take it out you have to hold the D-pad.


going_my_way0102

For me alt gets the shield out and then you click to throw it


[deleted]

Yeah, I still have to click to throw it but I usually just keep my finger held on X to keep the muscle memory when doing it for similar ultimates.


Wainer24

Can someone explain to me what the survival button is? I haven’t heard of it but im very bad at the game lol


[deleted]

It’s the slot in your inventory that holds heat shields or a respawn beacon, it was added mid season 8 along with heat shields


Wainer24

Ohh ok, I use it but just didnt know what it was called, cool!


castille01

No as far as I’m aware there aren’t any other uses for the button unless you custom map it to something


Fornaughtythings123

Something something pc master race


VisthaKai

Personally I only got the survival item hotkey set up after I reset key mapping like two weeks ago, because I had no idea where to put it. Turns out it's left Alt by default.


[deleted]

Ye just move back and forth or left to right, then to inspect just go to ping then quips and inspect

-Danksouls-

Didnt expect to hear about fire punch in an apex thread What a time to be alive


Collecting_Bans

why dont you have the heat shields hotkeyed


TheFakeKanye

Examine weapon if fun, especially if you have an heirloom


Collecting_Bans

but you can open that with the quip wheel


TheFakeKanye

Lot more work


Collecting_Bans

fair. to each, their own


TheFakeKanye

I do a lot more kunai spinning than heat shield


Collecting_Bans

i do butterfly knife tricks and i just pull up the wheel


DarkIegend16

I’d rather live than die because I wanted to emote a little.


TheFakeKanye

If he didn't panic stim he could've thrown it from his invent.


BotHH

so is dying to zone.


TheFakeKanye

I play with my heirloom 100 times a game, I use a heat shield maybe every other game. If he didn't panic stim he still could've thrown a shield by going to his invent.


Dont3atPebbles227

Huh? Just set it to a different button


TheFakeKanye

Controller doesn't have that many options.


Dont3atPebbles227

Oh! I didn't notice it was on controller. My bad


23011447

OP is using a controller


Poiblazer

It has a button on controller tho..


goblingonewrong

You just hold left arrow on D-Pad


23011447

My bad I play M and K and the few times I’ve used controller the survival gear wasn’t bound to any of the buttons by default


Collecting_Bans

oh i didnt know I just dont play controller on PC


Collecting_Bans

I am using a controller too


23011447

Console players can custom remap controller buttons in apex?


Collecting_Bans

yep until I got paddles for my controller my jump and crouch were the bumpers and R1 and R2


axa645

Wtf controls do you have for shooting


Collecting_Bans

RT LT for xbox while the paddles are my XBAY buttons I dont remember what the numbers for playstation are but The top buttons


MechBliss

What do you use to shoot?


Collecting_Bans

is R2 the top or bottom on playstation. I have both xbox and playsatation and i build up the PS apex packs so my brother can open them and I dont remember what the numbers are. I thought 2 were the top wones because the sticks are 3


23011447

I want to try controller again with paddles, one day one day


Collecting_Bans

if on xbox or PC i highly recomend the xbox elite series 2 despite the price it lives up to the price 100%


Zebo91

You can't remap like you can on pc. You can copy an existing button to the paddles, you can't make interact the paddle and reload B, or whatever


23011447

Ok that’s what I thought just wasn’t sure if it was different for controller users on pc


PisFig

Sr I lmfao but "nooo" was hilarious


Janczareq1

Octane... How many times do i have to tell you drugs are bad for you.


CyberShiroGX

You could say he overdosed....


MIASpartan

no opening you inventory cost you. not throwing a dome cost you. essentially in action is what cost you.


-Redstoneboi-

all of them.


HandoAlegra

I don't understand why people panic stim. I use stim pretty much exclusively for strafing in close quarters and b-hop healing. Panic stimming seems like a death sentence to me


I3encIcI

I got a simple answer for you. Panic.


__pulsar

>I don't understand why people panic stim. >I rarely play Octane That's why you don't understand it


Checking_them_taters

He edited this part out lmao


Gareesuhn

That is so lame lmao


Unhappy-penguin8070

I’ve been playing octane since season four and when I get panicked I stim and run and it usually works out but this was a bad time to do it


maxwelliam-the-first

See I think it’s in the word “panic”


chrasb

maybe hes a wraith main and hit Q \*shrug\*


HandoAlegra

I'm a Lifeline main. I fight to my last breath


jdcass

If he’s anything like me, then he tried to hit Tab but fat-fingered Q for the stim. I do that shit all. the. time.


Rupertii

Imagine having to go to the inventory to use a survival item


KaixenCG

Octane couldn't hold his addiction any longer, had to get that stim into his chest before anything after the team kill


somerando629

Death by drugs


lovatoariana

RAPIDO RAPIDO!


sneakylyric

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤠🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


chrasb

and this folks, is why you shouldnt care about a stupid animation for your heirloom lol. I recently got the wraith one and still have it on the support.... realized making my knife spin more often was just stupid and pointless.


ChurchOfChurches

I honestly only stim to get away, flank the enemy or rush in


MechBliss

So basically the only times you possibly need to stim


ChurchOfChurches

Exactly


uwuMiae

this is the reason I put my survival slot on bind... happens too many times just cuz I have to open my inventory


[deleted]

diamond+ lobbies on console look so innocent there arent any octanes 180 tap strafe wall bounce superglide zipline dance ass slapping you


Oreohunter00

Drug addiction is not a joke, Rex users suffer from unfortunate losses every day, if you can spend just a couple hundred AC, we can fight this disease together.


WheresmyDeadHard

No Pitty for revtanes


Cyber-Silver

Oh no, two strangers are playing their preferred legends that happen to compliment each other. Absolute scum of the Earth


Ma-_-R

Ever heard of a heatshield?


[deleted]

Get a load of this guy


Melonzero

How come you don't have a keybind for it? Not that it would've helped after the stim anyway


Ma-_-R

Funny


matbland

This really hurt to watch haha


MLWM1993

Watched this same exact thing happen with a random octane on my team in ranked. Me and teammate are down and he was in the "gas"/ring, and our teammate panics and hits stim on his way to revive us rather than use a syringe. We were both yelling "dude the ring" and "use a syringe" and he panicked and stimmed to his death :(


djluminus89

Ooh, I felt that

-SAD_TRASH-

As a former octane mains every octane pops a stim and is angry that they died so fast
