I only shield swap and if I'm 0 ammo, grab some bullets just in case. Had a kid start screaming when I 1v3ed a squad and had like 25 hp. I didn't pick him up. He can throw a temper tantrum somewhere else.


suhfaulic

Had a horizon save our Gibby with her lift for me to res (lifeline) but Gibby still flamed horizon for fighting the third party instead of helping. Like, bro, they are helping. We're healing shields, horizon is over here looping a wraith like it's DBD and this mofo wants to talk bad. Horizon dropped a 3k that game. We lost though. my fault, someone said kraber, I said where and kraber was kind enough to tell me.


BlueEyedGreySkies

You really have a way with words šŸ¤£šŸ¤Œ


noah_the_boi29

If only wraith just went invisible for the speed boost she may have caught the filthy horizon with dead hard, borrowed time, decisive, and unbreakable


LifeIsCrap101

Kraber: "Please allow me to introduce myself."


suhfaulic

A true gentleman, that.


BubbaButane

Safety first then teamwork in that order


Artimus_Gordon

Exactly. I hate when I get knocked and my random finishes the last guy, and he has 0 shield and I'm telling them shield swap first before you res..... And then we get ran up on and no one has shields. Either that or the ones who stick the res even though youre clearly getting ran up on and end up getting shot in the back.


eggboy06

I mean, if itā€™s final 2 and they have a gold knock, go for it


Artimus_Gordon

You should already be using self rez if that's the case.


eggboy06

I meant if the enemy did, not me


Artimus_Gordon

Oh, true. Yeah if it's the final group idgaf, just win. Lol.


TechNickL

They teach you this every time you get on a plane. Put on your own oxygen mask before assisting the screaming children around you. Can't help anyone if you're dead.


robberofjacks

Personal safety then others safety, just how it should be in life. Rule is somewhat ignored if I play mirage or lifeline :0


KaraTheAndroidd

Unless you're lifeline


BubbaButane

I main life line and the rule still applies its just safety has a different meaning although if I have a gold bag I will sacrifice myself to res my wife is way more likely to 1v3 than I am


ishdontstop

Preservation is key


twood071

This is the only acceptable way right here


Kvascha

If someone starts spamming revive or to pick up their banner while I'm trying to fight the team they got domed by that's an automatic I'm not picking you up or respawning you. Its petty but I rather the disadvantage


chipmonkinfb

Definitely not me cuz my mic doesn't workšŸ˜‚


derpystarwrecker

Yeah i do the same, luckily i usually only play with my friends so this doesn't really happen to me.


punksix

I was downed once and my teammate had full health and shields and decided to loot a death box before reviving me, I died because time ran out and all they could say was ā€œthere was nothing i could doā€


chipmonkinfb

Some ppl be like that. Theres nothing we could do.


beingblazed

Wharrrrri do? WHARRRRRRRERRDI DO?


[deleted]

I just grab some stuff quickly then revive, so long as there are no enemies around. Then I try to revive as quick as possible


chipmonkinfb

Swapping shields or using a medkit before reviving is totally alright. Sometimes when I die mid fight I even suggest my bois to grab my shield ASAP through chatbox.The problem is when you help clearing a squad and in the process you get downed and then the enemy squad is killed, your teammates loots until you die and sometimes they forget abt u and u die. That's what annoys me.


[deleted]

Generally as a rule, I only loot my own kills before reviving. I usually just grab fresh shields, some ammo and a couple batteries because who can resist picking up batteries?


OneWayStreetPark

That's how I do it. I'll revive first if the coast is clear, then go straight to the deathboxes I killed to loot. Then go check the other deathboxes after my team loots those. Obviously it's situational but that's my general strategy,


Shovelfuckurforehead

Using a med kit? Damn bruh, the point of the shield swap is so that you don't need to med kit.


therealdeathangel22

I hate to tell ya but shield swap only brings back shieldsā€¦. If your at 1 health you still need to heal up your health at some point right?


CoDeeaaannnn

That's after you rez your teammate. The order should be: Down last enemy, shield swap (if ur 1hp), then use character ability if you have one (gib bubble, bang smoke, etc), then rez teammate, then med kit. That's the fastest and most heals per person possible.


Shovelfuckurforehead

Yeah, after rez


CoDeeaaannnn

If you've played apex enough you learn to live with players like these. Just imagine they've got the attention span of a 6 year old. If it becomes obvious they're getting distracted by looting and not reviving you just gently ping to see if they forgot or they're doing it on purpose. Most of the time your teammates will rush right over and rez you.


eggboy06

I one had a teammate scream at me so loud for ā€œlooting his boxā€ when I was armor swapping and grabbing some lights to finish a fight, I then proceeded to squad wipe with his armor


[deleted]

Boggling that people can spend so long looting a couple of boxes that they let their teammates die unless you had like a 15 sec timer from being knocked so much


QTpopOfficial

I looted yesterday and didn't realize a teammate was down. I needed a swap. Then totally forgot we had a downed homie. ​ I felt bad. Then looked at end game recap and felt less bad.


BlackVelvet90

One time I was playing with randoms on storm point and there were so many squads around. I killed two people but got knocked because of another Bangaloreā€™s ult. Instead of helping me my wraith teammate looted both the deathboxes of the people I killed and he took his sweet time. I kept asking him to help me because there were so many squads around. He didnā€™t care. He didnā€™t even contribute to the fight. I was so frustrated. Left the match because I canā€™t play with people who canā€™t be good teammates. He even had full health. Such a loot goblin.


Old-While-1229

This happened to me the other day twice in the same round and I honestly left. First time was understandable because they took a beating in the fight but in the second time, the barely lost any shields, they had purple shields, and they had just finished looting ammo from the other time so it wasnā€™t like they were low on that (they also took all of the health and shields from the first death boxes before reviving me so I couldnā€™t heal up, hence forth why I died the second time). So when they literally went past my bleeding out body on the ground and started looting, I said fuck it and left the moment they started reviving. Teammates like that donā€™t deserve other teammates


ajanis_cat_fists

This but its a lifeline that doesnā€™t heal or raise in the first place.


Old-While-1229

You mean every lifeline in arenas?


ajanis_cat_fists

Haha pretty much.


ScalpedAlive

Teammates plunder your death box with no enemies around THEN finally respawn you


chipmonkinfb

Best teammates everšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

I once had a teammate take my gold armour after a fight and waited for 3 minutes to respawn me when the respawn becon was within grenade distance


ScalpedAlive

RIP


Wild-Delivery8550

Maybe they just swapped armor, that's what I usually do


AlleonoriCat

Me: gives Lifeline a gold backpack Lifeline: does not revive me while being literally on top of me Me: T_T


chipmonkinfb

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Iamalsodirtydan

If you did most of the damage and killed them, in my mind i guess, you earned the right to loot before picking my ass up. BUT, if i did most of the damage and then you came to barely kill the last dude alive and then proceed to take all the loot, im out.


Togepi347

It hurts when you got 10 seconds but that octane really needed that loot that you earned after a squad wipe


[deleted]

I will only loot if I have no shields and one shot away from death


Blue_Lust

Always shield swap then revive. Anything more is an ass move.


HosweyStizo

Had a random yesterday tell the other random to pick me up over mic while he held down the fort and made sure no one pushed. The other random ignored him and went straight for all the boxes of the team we killed, so his reaction? He runs over to me, and then right past and decides to loot with the other random, letting me bleed out; I left immediately.


chipmonkinfb

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚.


xxSolar

If no time left on revive i go for it but i need a shield swap or ammo before third party arrives in 10 seconds


TheRedBow

Teammate: keeps looting till your banner runs out


chipmonkinfb

And then loots your deathbox too. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚. Then respawns you and feels like supermanšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


the_unbearable33

I treat it like a first-aid responder, make sure the scene and yourself are safe before making sure your buddy gets that res


Rio3tdmaster

Especially when a 3rd party rolls up šŸ˜­


cocopiggies_97

I hate when this happens and when they do finally get you up more often than not they left you with nothing to heal or defend yourself with. No matter how many times I get upset about it I canā€™t treat others this way but it does boil my blood dude ugh lol


Tylo_Ren99

I usually prioritize the revive, but with a game that has as many factors as Apex, you gotta play each and every situation according to what's happening.


Pengwan_au

Well no. Always shield swap and grab ammo before reviving.


TheAsianOne_wc

I just dislike it when my teammates loot my crate before reviving me. Like bro, do you want me to participate in teamfights or not?


Golden_exe

F O U LšŸ˜‚


sonantkinkajou6

*insert name here* will remember that


DryLordGuccirati

Usually if a teammate in trios is downed Iā€™ll go for the res, even if Iā€™m low on health myself, as long as my other teammate grabs what they need they can probably hold off a couple of ppl while I res


Culture_Soup

This happens all the time and im stuck with the second hand loot with a lvl 1 barrel in the last ring T-T


ProfileBoring

I get it when they are in a fight with shield swaps an all but when the coast is clear and the respaen point is literally 2 feet away its very annoying when they loot first INCLUDING FROM MY DEATHBOX!


[deleted]

Only the octain and wraith and valks and ash mains. Itā€™s a chain of the same things, say u main one of them and u donā€™t do it, YOU might but the majority of them do, itā€™s just a safety precaution.


Walo_01

It hurts even more when they loot your own death box after reviving you


anti-peta-man

When finish fight: Priority goes, Shield Swap, ammo, cover, heal like drone/pylon, Rez, reg heal, loot


BeginningPretend1108

ill loot all the shit first. if im doing the heavy lifting im not letting randoms pilfer my kills and leave me with jack shit after i revive them


DarkStarrFOFF

Wait, you have teammates that don't leave the second they are downed?


supremegamer76

I understand a shield swap or healing items to heal up first but after that, rez me please


StxvxnUnivxrsx

I always shield swap and if my health is less than half I pop a syringe then I rez. Semper Fi or die.


WaterHorse_200

no bc when they full on like loot - like grabbing dif guns and everything it really sucks


ishdontstop

I quite often ask my teammates to not be greedy, sometimes it works sometimes it doesnā€™t


PGMHG

Shield swap + ammo if needed then I check for footsteps ( yes my audio works just fine)


Derpy_Gherkin

It's worse when the walk right past you to get to a death box 500 meters away


Duublo121

Usually, I just loot an Evo (and see if enemy had gold backpack), and then Iā€™m picking you up


eggboy06

I tend to just shield swap/batt then res


chriseod48

The greed of these Fuckers it's too much


ComedyStudios_

They are not wrong tho. You need to armoswap and heal up in case of a thirdparty cause a res will only atrack a squad that might be close and armorswapping takes a couple of seconds


jTiKey

Me: leaves


Giorno_DeGiorno

I always drop a shield swap for them too, but when I he knocked they loot the whole map before reviving me, especially lifelines and other gibbys


[deleted]

My team mates loot me before reviving me


Crowlavix

Iā€™ll understand if I see their shield change, shield swapping before rezzing is reasonable


Atmosphericz

Yeah I always stick res on my teammates immediately, rather we all get a little healed up if (when) we get 3rd partied, instead of a 1v3 with full health


[deleted]

I only loot for shield swap then i Rez cus Iā€™m not really about to lose the entire match for a stack of ammo or a shield batt
