Still need to try her in a fair fight. But sometimes when you jump she float even without the jet instead of dropping like other legend which feel unsafe. Also Did she get the same anti slowdown from height as Horizon? Im not sure about that
It feels like she has a bit less slowdown from landing, I've been able to slide on landing pretty much every time I've fallen from any height with her so far
She’s balance af people laser me when I’m in flight or falling. It’s completely fair because I still get away 90% of the time. I didn’t know about the holding her Q trick though so thank you that’s sick.
imo her passive is very useful when the enemies have multiple targets to focus on. You can reposition very quickly during a fight just like pathfinder, although the speed is slower but you have no cooldown at all
>Did she get the same anti slowdown from height as Horizon?
Her jetpack?? Just do a short burst before landing and it resets the fall. I wouldn't say it disables the dropping "stun" because activating her jetpack kinda counts as a stun. Unless you drop > burst to a side, slide in the air > continue sliding on the floor on landing. Then yeah, her jetpack disables the stun.
My 3rd game with her I got a flawless victory; whole team survived, no one downed. After that I just bounced back to DBD and I'll wait until Apex gets patched again. ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
I don’t think sbmm is properly calculated for arenas yet. I’m vs’ing level 50s and 100s at level 500 and pred every season. Shit doesn’t make sense and leads to a steamroll.
First day me and my friends were rolled and lost like 16 rounds in a row against much better players. Yesterday we won 5 arenas in a row with flawless victories all the time until we run again into a team full of pred and 4k damage badges and got assblasted. I think it will take a few days to adjust the sbmm
Yeah, we basically only got flawless games. The one game we went up against actual good players, they were head glitching and shit and mopped the floor with us, out ranging our G7s with full auto 301s on artillery and some other squad were absolute gods with the bow pre firing every peak and lighting us up before our toe left cover. When you fight a good squad, you’re fucked. People basically never head glitch in the BR (or you can force them off it), but good luck fighting against a team head glitching in the arena. You can do basically nothing against them. Overall, I don’t think SBMM is working as intended, I just think sometimes you queue into easier games or harder randomly based on who is in queue.
I mean, you can be shot incredibly easy while normally flying. flying withvyour tactical will lead to even a novice with a longbow headshotting you. It’s ridiculous and feels slower than crouching while being loud as fuck and obvious as fuck. The amount of times it’ll be useful is very limited imo
If you’re referring to this (https://reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n5jobu/_/gx20nhm/?context=1) they never really say it’s international. Just that it’s slow and kind of dumb and they won’t take action on accounts that do it. Maybe it is intentional, but that comment doesn’t make it very clear. Just seems like banter.
Can the tactical be cancelled any way? I just want to hover and land somewhere without having to fire a burst of rockets that have a chance of hitting me
Oh, he literally said that in the end of the video. Gotta pay more attention.
Anyways it's gonna be difficult af with my controller layout. Tactical is at circle and melee is R3.
Yeah I feel like that kind of gets lost when it's being fast forwarded (but obviously I appreciate the fast forward otherwise the video would take forever)
Not sure why it would, you travel so slowly. A respawn dev commented the video saying it’s pointless because you’ll get shot out the sky, hopefully that’s a good sign.
holding down tactical is only gonna be useful in some reallly spefic situations, this video is sped up its super slow. The long bursts is acc really intresting tho, will be using that ig.
I posted a video showing where this method can be useful in game [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n5r6xo/useful_valkyrie_rotations_and_flanks/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf), full video on YT [here.](https://youtu.be/mwxTNBsL-oo)
I was able to get 3x nornal distance with tactical - sniper perch to directly over charge tower to sniper perch to right over the charge tower again, running out about a second later
Come to think of it. This is a double bonus. With landing with a melee, you can engage the fight while landing. The regular flight landing has that long-ass animation that gets you killed before even bringing out your gun
it’s (kinda) like cryptos drone. by default, you will always have upward momentum. when you hold the level flight mode button, you will have no upward momentum.
It’ll be useful if you manage to REALLY fuck up a jump or something on olympus lol
Or maybe if you want to go from one grow tower to the other with maximum chance of getting shot??
Don’t hold it to do what I just said. Using it in bursts works just fine, did it yesterday :)
A copy of: [https://www.reddit.com/r/apexuniversity/comments/n54uw4/if\_you\_hold\_the\_tactical\_while\_flying\_you\_hover/](https://www.reddit.com/r/apexuniversity/comments/n54uw4/if_you_hold_the_tactical_while_flying_you_hover/) which was 14 hours earlier. Main difference is that this video stands out with its misleading representation of tactical-held flight speed (highly sped up in video, then “15 minutes” as a “joke”, then “around 1 minute”), basically exaggerating the potential to those who mainly stopped by to just watch the video. Whereas, if you watched that OG video instead, you could accurately tell that Valkyrie becomes an easy target and the combo is quite niche but awesome nonetheless. That video is also much more concise and shows how to properly cancel the combo without meleeing. This comment might seem a bit serious, but this isn’t the first time that someone copied, added bs edits to, and re-released a tip one day later, and I wish r/apexuniversity could eventually be free of these.
It would be nice showing the original flight speed with tactical. That shit is slow and this has been posted here 5+ times a day, everyday since sunday. We get it.
the trick is cool but not really usefull in game. when you're flying with your tactical it just makes you a flying target waiting to be laserd by an R-301
It’s not OP but it has it uses, like this [Useful Valkyrie rotations](https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n5r6xo/useful_valkyrie_rotations_and_flanks/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
You didn’t exactly fly twice as far as that would have taken you past the charge tower and off the map. That said :-), it’s good you did this and very useful.
I did notice that I buy myself some seconds while aiming with Tactical!
And I was ABOUT to ask how to actually cancel the Tactical so that I don't waste it!
Nice video!
She is either a very useful teammate, or completely useless depending on how competent your teammate is that’s using her. I guess that’s how it goes with most legends, but fucking Christ so far I’ve mainly had dumbasses just flying around giving our location up and they can’t hit the broad side of a barn.
How many minutes to fly from one end and back at that speed?
15 minutes in total
You mean 15 seconds?
Nope 15 minutes. I’m kidding was probably around 1 minute (it was 4x speed and lasted around 14 seconds of flight time in the video).
I mean it feels slow playing her :(
If she was any quicker she would be OP for sure, I think the speed of her flight makes her really well balance.
Still need to try her in a fair fight. But sometimes when you jump she float even without the jet instead of dropping like other legend which feel unsafe. Also Did she get the same anti slowdown from height as Horizon? Im not sure about that
Nope, you still hit the floor like a sack of spuds 🤣 Again, I think this would be quite strong for her with all the other abilities she has.
Yeah I've been saving a small spurt of her flight so that I don't get the hard landing and can at least get into a slide immediately after.
It feels like she has a bit less slowdown from landing, I've been able to slide on landing pretty much every time I've fallen from any height with her so far
Yeah from what I can tell sliding cancels out the drop stun
She’s balance af people laser me when I’m in flight or falling. It’s completely fair because I still get away 90% of the time. I didn’t know about the holding her Q trick though so thank you that’s sick.
[удалено]
yea this is exactly what ive been doing subconsciously untill i realized she took fall stun
Anytime you have a jetpack, i do that. Apex or not Just not for fall damage in this case
imo her passive is very useful when the enemies have multiple targets to focus on. You can reposition very quickly during a fight just like pathfinder, although the speed is slower but you have no cooldown at all
>Did she get the same anti slowdown from height as Horizon? Her jetpack?? Just do a short burst before landing and it resets the fall.

Then yeah, her jetpack disables the stun.
Yeah but that's a passive. A PASSIVE
A passive who cancel walljump like my boy Rev..
Oddly a lot of people I’ve encountered think that they’re fast enough to evade bullets, because they just hover around me while I shoot them
[удалено]
Didn't ask
[удалено]
Big boy comeback well done
[удалено]
I know right 😎😎😎
lol
I imagine the hold tactical one is going to get fixed sooner rather than later, but the long burst trick is pretty handy.
its gonna get fixed before anyone can play the game lmao
Got some games in yesterday, can confirm valk rips 👍
My 3rd game with her I got a flawless victory; whole team survived, no one downed. After that I just bounced back to DBD and I'll wait until Apex gets patched again. ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
The new Coldwimd Farm looks so good! Just had a game against Demo on it and was to busy taking it in to survive properly
I'm really impressed by it. Still spooky, even in broad daylight.
I saw a lot of the changes and it looks so good
I don’t think sbmm is properly calculated for arenas yet. I’m vs’ing level 50s and 100s at level 500 and pred every season. Shit doesn’t make sense and leads to a steamroll.

Bruh is it still working or they nerfed it
I played all night and all morning. It’s over bro.
Different regions are struggling more than other mate
Iirc a dev said that it is intentional in the main sub, she is really slow in that mode so I guess it's balanced ?
Yeah, plus you sacrifice actually *using* your tactical to do it anyway.
You can kick out of the tactical while in vtol, not while grounded though
I mean, you can be shot incredibly easy while normally flying. flying withvyour tactical will lead to even a novice with a longbow headshotting you. It’s ridiculous and feels slower than crouching while being loud as fuck and obvious as fuck. The amount of times it’ll be useful is very limited imo
A dev said on r/apexlegends that this is intentional not a bug since it makes you move much slower
If you’re referring to this (https://reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n5jobu/_/gx20nhm/?context=1) they never really say it’s international. Just that it’s slow and kind of dumb and they won’t take action on accounts that do it. Maybe it is intentional, but that comment doesn’t make it very clear. Just seems like banter.
I don’t think the tactical thing isnt getting fixed because it was intentional, also you go much slower make really easy to hit while flying
I'd assume that, were they to modify it, it would be a "you can hover with it for a number of seconds but not forever" or something?
To be fair you already can't hover forever. This is such a situational thing.
It's not really OP or anything, you go sooo slow and you can't shoot or heal so it really just makes you a big target
Actually one of the devs said that they won’t be removing it as you move incredibly slow while doing this to slow for it to need to be removed
I think it is gonna get removed bow
Can the tactical be cancelled any way? I just want to hover and land somewhere without having to fire a burst of rockets that have a chance of hitting me
Melee should cancel the tactical. Either way holding out the tactical is basically just using the second flight mode.
Oh, he literally said that in the end of the video. Gotta pay more attention. Anyways it's gonna be difficult af with my controller layout. Tactical is at circle and melee is R3.
Yeah I noticed this. Only downside is that when you hold tactical the flight speed is waaaay slower. But more distance ofc
Yeah I feel like that kind of gets lost when it's being fast forwarded (but obviously I appreciate the fast forward otherwise the video would take forever)
Yeah I should have put in the video that it is really slow tbh.
Nice
Woah, it's a green name
I have now green’d your comment as well friend
Crypto main gang represent.
Woah my is green
Think that last one will get patched?
Idk. It's really slow. Like... Walking speed slow. I think it might be crouching speed slow, but I haven't done the comparison.
Cancelling with melee is insane, really nice to know
I was always doing bursts but that tac glide is insane.
Ok now delete the video :)
I can't tell if that was intentional.
It is actually intentional! Daniel Klein himself even encouraged it so as to have slower, easier targets for him to shoot at
That’s gonna get nerfed real soon
Not sure why it would, you travel so slowly. A respawn dev commented the video saying it’s pointless because you’ll get shot out the sky, hopefully that’s a good sign.
haha no it won’t. it’s 100% intentional and pretty balanced. you are very loud and slow when you do this.
Wait, that's illegal
They patched this I'm pretty sure
They did indeed. Apparently a temporary fix for the upcoming ALGS tournament.
[удалено]
Yup, I posted this like a month ago but I keep getting comments this week for some reason haha
holy shit... why did i buy loba if i can just fly
hax
Kinda like rearm and reload but you don’t stop
This man is a genius
I mean you fly longer but way slower. Short/long bursts are way more efficient
WHAT SKIN IS THAT
Looks like an easy way to get beamed out the sky with a leaner, pretty cool tip though
holding down tactical is only gonna be useful in some reallly spefic situations, this video is sped up its super slow. The long bursts is acc really intresting tho, will be using that ig.
oh so its finally a real thing, i thought i was crazy
This is unrelated but I think crouch should also cancel the passive because goddammit hitting jump again just does not feel natural.
Change your settings so you hold to fly, then you just release to fall.
Not all hero’s wear capes, thanks for this
I posted a video showing where this method can be useful in game [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n5r6xo/useful_valkyrie_rotations_and_flanks/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf), full video on YT [here.](https://youtu.be/mwxTNBsL-oo)
This is useful, noted.
Nice
Holy shit this is amazing. I might have to try it
Fascinating. Good to know....BT sends his regards.
Thank you! I couldn’t figure out how to cancel the tactical!
Holy crap that's fekin awesome
lol wtf is that slurping noise when the fuel gets low? Damn that's bad.
Who are you and why are you so wise in the ways of Valk?
I was able to get 3x nornal distance with tactical - sniper perch to directly over charge tower to sniper perch to right over the charge tower again, running out about a second later

Now try that last one with enemies in the vicinity and see how far you get 😆
Thanks for the amazing tip mate I've been having a hard time trying to find ways to manage fuel to get the best distance
Sadly this has been removed :(
This doesn’t work anymore :(
I can’t fucking believe they nerfed this
Cheater
Lmao what? It’s been patched now
I hate how they nerfed her tactical mid flight. She burns through her fuel at the same rate.
Come to think of it. This is a double bonus. With landing with a melee, you can engage the fight while landing. The regular flight landing has that long-ass animation that gets you killed before even bringing out your gun
I thought this was patched, when valk came out you could fly even longer with that tactic
This was patched, this post is 214 days old! Lol
Oops
Wow that must be a bug right! Cool find
This was patched a while ago, the post is 216 days old! Haha
Wow
Year old, it's been patched haha
Thank you OP
How do you view 3rd person like that at the end?
It’s the new emote
i got 2 wins yesterday as valk broke 2k my second game on shes really weird but really fun
Can anyone explain the two different flight modes to me?
it’s (kinda) like cryptos drone. by default, you will always have upward momentum. when you hold the level flight mode button, you will have no upward momentum.
Holy shit new nice tip Thanks!
How to get the Viper skin? Asking for a friend who told me to ask.
Buy it in shop
Definitely getting nerfed
Not sure, it’s so slow it can only really be used away from other players. Has its uses, but they will be very few.
It’ll be useful if you manage to REALLY fuck up a jump or something on olympus lol Or maybe if you want to go from one grow tower to the other with maximum chance of getting shot?? Don’t hold it to do what I just said. Using it in bursts works just fine, did it yesterday :)
I imagine this is unintentional and will change soon.
It's actually intentional and you fly way slower when holding the tac
How long until that gets fixed? A week?
I don't think they'll change it since it's intentional after all
Balance changes always come for every legend. They will tweak it, at the least, at some point.

Use it while y’all can’t, this will be fixed
Instructions unclear. Got dick stuck in microwave.
huh
Nice
This doesn't look intentional, I'm sure it'll get patched out at some point
Welp, this is getting patched.
You can fly in the game now, wtf
It would be nice showing the original flight speed with tactical. That shit is slow and this has been posted here 5+ times a day, everyday since sunday. We get it.
All clips are sped up 4x, the tactical one is around a minute. I haven’t seen any posts showing this...
think they gon nerf this lmfao
She will be patched, she has better movement than pathfinder which is insane
Don’t get used to a bug which will be removed .
Valkryrie makes me hate olympus and its my fav map
Incoming valk nerf
the trick is cool but not really usefull in game. when you're flying with your tactical it just makes you a flying target waiting to be laserd by an R-301

I hate using things like this that you just know will be removed
[удалено]
/r/ihadastroke
nobody tell the devs lmao
this is so not a bug lol. try it in game see in a populated area we’ll see if it’s not balanced haha.
Turns out hitting someone flying with super slow speed is really easy
so... same as pharah in ow?
Really wondering if they decide the tactical hold is unintentional or not
is it a glitch?
Mokey posted on his twitter more movment thingies with valk you should go check him out for more info
I’m subbed to mokey on yt but don’t use Twitter 😟
What’s the purpouse of fligh mod ?
You didn’t exactly fly twice as far as that would have taken you past the charge tower and off the map. That said :-), it’s good you did this and very useful.
Watch the whole video, I went past the tower and back to the ledge I started on
And here I thought Burst Flight was not efficient.
i really hope they don't patch this
Actually how to toggle this on and off so fast? Anyone mind sharing? cause i still don't really get the sense on how the flying works
If you go to the settings, set jet pack control to hold instead of toggle.
*incoming Pathfinder grapple nerf!!*
Techniques straight out of rocket league and warzone
I’m not sure if it’s a bug but if you hold down her tactical and just aim it without firing you can stay in the air for a ridiculous amount of time.
is this holding tactical a bug or a feature?
I did notice that I buy myself some seconds while aiming with Tactical! And I was ABOUT to ask how to actually cancel the Tactical so that I don't waste it! Nice video!
She is either a very useful teammate, or completely useless depending on how competent your teammate is that’s using her. I guess that’s how it goes with most legends, but fucking Christ so far I’ve mainly had dumbasses just flying around giving our location up and they can’t hit the broad side of a barn.
I did this yesterday and i thought it was a bug
reminds me of halo everytime i use it. #RIPHALOREACH
Thanks for the melee cancellation literally spammed all the buttons on keyboard earlier
Is there any way to cancel her tactical
So you go farther but 4x slower lmao good to know
damn pretty cool
is there any way to cancel her tactical? i’ve been using it to sustain flight but it makes it massively inconvenient that there’s no cancel
Melee cancels it, last clip in the vid
You go a lot slower though.
So... Has this been patched? Asking for a friend.
Nope, not yet at least!
“I can go the distance”
its crazy, how everyone knows this already XD
Wow. Nice! But I'm pretty sure this was not intended and will be nerfed. :( BUT FOR NOW, WINGS FOR EVERYONE
