Let me know what you think of Octane! Come check out the second channel! RUclips.com/TimProPlays 8/9/22: Octane has had no changes in forever, he is still great and this guide is 100% relevant! 5/10/22: Octane is still really great! No changes for Season 13 :) *CHANGES TO OCTANE SINCE THE LAUNCH OF THIS VIDEO:* Season 14: None Season 13: None Season 12: None Season 11: Hitting the pad is a bit louder now! Season 10.1 Update: Reduced Jump Pad Horizontal Distance by 10-15% Reduced the rate of Octane's Stim Regen from 1.5 to 1 HP/S
@@dominatindorito7810 that's true, but some have advantages. Gib with ranged weapons, Rampart with LMGs, Octane with ARs/shotguns/SMGs, Wraith with a Wing/Peace. Each one has there advantages and of course you can mix and match how ever you want. Even fuses buff is better with a Rampage. Even gold helmets. Octane/Mirage don't need it. Give it to a Gib/Blood.
@@trainedorphan9640 no shit about the gold fucking helmets you didn't even have to put that part in. Fuse's buff is a scan and throwing power. The rampage has nothing to do with his buff. People can use whatever guns they want stfu
This character is just “do you like speed?” “Do you like speed more than health?” “You sure?” “Alright…” *proceeds to melt an entire team through sheer surprise and velocity.*
What do you think about fuse after his buff, I feel he is quite viable, good for stoping people from going somewhere like caustic. And can be used aggressively with his ult and grenades.
As extra tip, I use the jump pad for blocking doors in small rooms and revive teammates. In the worst scenario delays the push enemy, in the best side the jump confused in the air and you hear that. Just saying jeje.
As a 10k octane my biggest tip would be if u wanna be an octane that survives and helps his team have ur pad distance and cool down time memorized or just always locked in. Abuse ur stim strafe. I pretty much only stim if I'm strafing. It's also rare for me to do the same strafe twice. That's the fun part for me is I can be super creative with strafe patterns still hit my shots and octane can basically just exaggerate that with his stim. Ping your pad! Sometimes in bushes it's good to hide the pad if you ping it it will highlight it for your team. This was a very informative video I was looking for his exact cool down time tbh I thought it was 1:30 but I knew it wasn't exactly that. Appreciate the knowledge
One crucial movement information I would add to this. While stimmed tap strafing is a lot easier to do, plus you get a little bit more distance while doing so. Another thing is the tap strafe by using the launchpads 2nd jump. It's borderline broken how much mobility it gives you and how hard it is to hit you when you suddenly change direction mid air. To fully use his potential Tap strafing is absolutely key.
I’m returning from season 2, and I can’t get over how far octane can pad now. You just about cross towns now. Not to mention the double jump. I do hate to see how picked he is though. Used for be able to get him every game.
@@TimProVision thank you I’m very satisfied sigh being back for sure, i feel like a fool watching videos like yours where y’all are legit demons on the battle field with octane. Vs me who just jumps way too far.
@@TimProVision oh I’m sure we all aren’t gods lol. I myself never have been good, but fun game and I’m glad to be back for sure. Love the content though!
The last time I played was season 3 I’m also coming back to apex, I need 1 more level for my second character and I’m getting octane so this helps a lot
So I was wondering about the stimming before using the jump pad. I get that it still brings you the same distance but does it make you fly through the air faster? Whenever I do it seems like I fly faster but I'm not sure.
Hey Tim. I've noticed how great you play in these clips and i just wanted to ask. As much as you can visibly see the buttons. What platform are you on as base? Xbox, playstation or Pc?
@@TimProVision do you have any ideas on some great tips for xbox? I'm finding it quite hard to play. There any videos you have that I could watch that would be very beneficial for me?
I like hybrid mid and close range guns like R301 and Flatline so I can weaken from range and then pad in and know my gun is going to work in the close range. I try to pair it up with an SMG or shotty as well.
There is a 3rd pad movement that OG octain players might know but if you jump as you hit the jump pad you get double the height and if you do it right you still get the double jump from the pad
Just a pub casual player. I'm working on getting 30 kills with any legend I haven't used and Octane is one. These tips are great, thank you. But to have a few laughs at my friends expense I definitely have to do a few rage quit sessions just to get into the Octane mindset. :D
For anyone watching this guide today here is a really important thing to know, stimming will cancel out the slowing effect of catalyst's spikes, it will not remove the visual clutter from the ult however.
Quick tip: instead of wasting a throwable to destroy a pad before you jump shoot the pad with at least 13 shots jump on it and as your in the air turn back and shoot the pad more to destroy it either way it works decent in clutch plays
Does work this way. Although the weapon will matter in terms of destroying the pad. And of course you won't have perfect accuracy when flying away so if the game rng's ya, you might be unsuccessful.
I was mastering bangalore but this is more rushing style legend.... I m just mastering the octane as apex legends mobile soft launch has been launched... Thanks for your tips it will be easy to master octane for me.... 😊😊☺
I feel like the next one should Horizon. That guide always felt like "rushed out" to me, and wasn't enough. You also said that recent buffs/nerfs changed the way she's played, so... Anyway keep it up, this is good work
My wife plays controller and I play pc... I in all honesty do not know how to help explain the game and movement and that to her. How do you move so fluid? I really dont understand xD
I’m a 20 bomb octane an I stim to get even more control on my recoil to the point where it has none maybe it’s just my settings but it might be different for everyone
I actually have two questions to tell you. First, is -1 ping good or bad. Second, which server are u in, im saying this because i want to be in duos, cant matchmake in duos at Singapore server. Love ur vids
Ik this has nothing to do with the video but everyone saying Bangalore needs a buff, I reckon a buff that would be useful for her would her smoke if pre-existing stops scans from going through or picking up what's in the smoke, but if she deploys after being scanned then it doesn't do anything
Having Bangalore heirloom n trying to main her , there are to many times u think ur safe bc of ur smoke then boom seer or bloodhound with another squad slides in , this can happen any game to any Bangalore anytime
This is absolutely helpful because i just buy octane and im a new player and i just started playing for about a week and also your other tips on playing apex is so much help for me

I asked for 40 minutes of you just saying "Don't run ahead and get killed like an asshole," but I accept this as a compromise. Thank you so much.
Lmao, this is the greatest follow up comment 😂
My god this is true my friend wanted to show me how to “use” octane where he just gets knocked down and ask for help 😂
As an Octane main since season 2, these tips are really good, essential for playing a good Octane.
ive been playing since season 2 and octane is the funnest legend
Yo I’ve be a octane Maine since season 9 so FUN
@@dionreni best legend in the game and one of the only straight ones lol
@@tidomontanaa you might get cancelled for that one lmao

I've only been playing for about a month now, and your videos have really been helping me get better at the game. Thanks for the help.
Glad to hear it and glad to help!
I wanna see rampart after the buff dude.....and a preferred loudout for each legend
This is in the work :)
@@TimProVision nice
I'd say loadout is more up to preference than how to play certain legends tbh.

Glad you enjoy the tips!
Ik u ain’t gonna probably see this but I just got octane and watched the video is it still accurate today times?
bro this is the nicest tips i have ever seen, As an Octane main since season 2 this is pretty good Basically
Glad you enjoyed!
Question, does having gold armour increase octanes passive to 2hp/s or does it remain at its base?
It remains at the base 1hp/s
The gold armour would go into octanes favour if that was the case
Love the content🔥
I appreciate it Raven!
Who doesnt?!?!
You explain everything so well like you were born for this. Lol. Great content bro!
Thanks Aye! This means a lot to me!
Really good guide thorough, detailed , full of pro tips! Great video 👍

Tap Strafing is good. Although only applicable to about 10% of the player base as most play controller. Thanks for the info!
and also tap strafing onto the pad

hi, i can get octane rn should i wait until the neww seoson comes out or should i buy him immeadiatly
So I was wondering about the stimming before using the jump pad. I get that it still brings you the same distance but does it make you fly through the air faster? Whenever I do it seems like I fly faster but I'm not sure.
It's the FOV scaling
5:10 Just turn off the FOV Scaling in the Game Settings. You don't have the scaling then while using stim / bloodhound ULT and ADS.
Good Guide Tho.
As a octane main, i agree nice video keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Octane is such a fun character!!!
He really is!
Used to main octane but needed a guide thx now I main him again
Best of luck! THanks for watching!
Hey Tim. I've noticed how great you play in these clips and i just wanted to ask. As much as you can visibly see the buttons. What platform are you on as base? Xbox, playstation or Pc?
I play on Xbox, mostly. Sometimes PC if I am wanting to change things up.
@@TimProVision do you have any ideas on some great tips for xbox? I'm finding it quite hard to play. There any videos you have that I could watch that would be very beneficial for me?
Thank u for this because all the guides I saw about octane were very old.
Glad to help! Best of luck with him!
Do you think i should main horizon or octane after nerf at the moment i main octane
I love your content but do have a question new to Apex and wondering why to use gold armor for octane over red
What load out is best for octain I just started gaining him and idk what guns to use? (Love your vids btw I subscribe)
I like hybrid mid and close range guns like R301 and Flatline so I can weaken from range and then pad in and know my gun is going to work in the close range. I try to pair it up with an SMG or shotty as well.

No problem 👍
You motivated me to become an Octane main..
Thx man ❤️
I wish you the best of luck!
This vid was so helpful thank you
No problem!!
God Video Tim because Octane is my mane and i like every Video to my Legend
I'm not sure if I should main Wraith or Octane
Both are great picks!
He brings fun for me, I like octane the most, the only and the first char I ever got 1k kills on
He got nerfed in the Recent update but nvrmnd tht...
Lots of new things I learnt from this video
Thanks Tim🙌❤
My pleasure :) Thanks for the comment!
weapon combo recommendations for Octane?
Thanks for the help, love your videos!
Glad you like them! Appreciate the support!
i didnt know the meelee trick. thanks!
My pleasure !
Is it possible to run apex with msi afterburner without crashing with that error code ?

There 8s a glitch in fazerunner where if you use your stim off spawn an go into the fazerunner you can keep your stim
Love your content! May I ask, how did you make that thumbnail?
I hired a 3D animated Artist, Frosty. I would check Fr0sty out on twitter!
@@TimProVision Thanks!
Could you do Valkyrie next and Rampart after her buff releases?
Valkyrie is more or less unchanged so there isn't much to add since her Season 9 guide!

Great video! This will help alot 👌👌👌
Hope you enjoy.
you are the best. I will buy octane next now. I am lvl 60.
Tim i have wattson octane valkiry loba but pathfinder makes me feel like spiderman and hes grate
3:41 when Seer tried the trick shot 👏
Very very helpful
Thanks for checking it out!
Btw you can throw a jump pad on an existing jump pad, so you can get 2 in a row
I just got octane today cant wait to get better with him
Best of luck Bell!
I feel like the next one should Horizon.
That guide always felt like "rushed out" to me, and wasn't enough.
You also said that recent buffs/nerfs changed the way she's played, so...
Anyway keep it up, this is good work
I am an octane main and I am also my team's Igl. Me and my revenant are a great team. Comp Is still good
Commenting to help you with the algorithm love you Tim 🥴
I appreciate this!! Thanks for the support!
I’m really trying to decide if I want Octane or Valkyrie, if someone has both of them, could you tell me which one is better and why? Thanks! :)

I actually have two questions to tell you. First, is -1 ping good or bad. Second, which server are u in, im saying this because i want to be in duos, cant matchmake in duos at Singapore server. Love ur vids
1 ping is amazing
Negative 1 ping, not 1 ping
No idea what negative ping would be. shouldn't be possible.
I have negative 1 ping and 100 packet loss at Sydney. Lol.
Do u use alc settings and plz make a video for alc settings
I have a video of my season 10 settings. Including my ALC setup.

@@tobyw624 big facts like some special smoke idk
I deff. want a bangalore buff. Not sure what though.
@@TimProVision apart from what I thought of with the smoke I can't think of anything either
Do you recommend running two med kits with octane and 4 syringes or just 4 syringes
Just 4 syringes his passive health recharge is really helpful just run away if your low on hp
@@colbalias1568 ok cool even though they're nerfing it to 1hp per sec rather than 1.5?
I still like running both the medkits and syringes. I would argue the medkits are more important too.
@@TimProVision thanks I sort of had the same idea
Well he's the master lol forget I said anything
love the videos

How do u control ur recoil so good...?

Since apex mobile just released, this would be helpful for us octane users
Best of luck with Mobile!
goat ‼️
Thanks for watching :)
What happens loba use tp ability to jump pad????
15:35 thats a summary of my life
doesnt he take extra damge while his stim is active or am I wrong
He does not. At least not beyond the use
@@TimProVision thanks alot of misinformation out there
Thx!
Thanks for watching!
The tip for pistols was given by me
I remember I was playing octane and was bunny hopping away from an enemy, my computer asked me if I wanted to turn on sticky keys, and I died ._.
Oh nooooo....
Very sad
I was second place too
Is octane still good after Evolution Collection event nerfs?
Yeah I think he will be.
Whos better revenant or octane
Octane
Ok
Thanks those ttv wraiths will finally something to fear: ME!!!
Haha thanks for watching!
how to turn the stimzoom off?
I would like to see about octane's new nerfs
Nothing yet!
so what loadout good for octane
Any close range smg/shotty with a mid range like an R3 or flatline
Just was in your game
U were champion 🏆
Hey lets go!
I feel like the nerf for octane's regeneration is gonna ruin him but the jump pad is a good nerf imo.
Yeah... I think he will still be widely picked.
This is absolutely helpful because i just buy octane and im a new player and i just started playing for about a week and also your other tips on playing apex is so much help for me
I am glad the video is helpful! Welcome to Apex too!
Please do seer next with the nerf and all
Not enough really to warrant a redo already imo. But thanks for the input!
I feel like a solid BS combo is Octane, Revenant and Bloodhound, if you really want to become satan for a short bit
I not mad about the jump pad nerf, im mad about the health cost nerf
How the heck do you shoot in range with L-star
You should do wraith next
We did Wraith not too long ago!
I love how he changed the title cause Octane still hasn't been touched so this video isn't out of date
Indeed!
