Top 5 Legends for Olympus in Apex Legends

The best Legends for Olympus in Apex Legends Season 24 are as follows:

1) Ash

Ash can be considered the most fun and aggressive Assault class legend after the recent Season 24 update. Her ability kit has become more reliable alongside receiving a significant buff to the ultimate ability as it can now teleport to a greater distance. Moreover, her passive ability was overhauled as the devs added an omnidirectional dash ability to the legend.

Ash's ability to trap enemies with her tactical ability can be critical during team fights as it can stop enemy rushes. Olympus is a clean map with distinct areas and planned layouts. Her ultimate ability is also quite essential as it allows players to reposition faster while avoiding unnecessary gunfights.

2) Ballistic

Ballistic is the second character from the Assault class who enjoys a rework in Season 24. His base ability kit now comes with two tactical charges and an ultimate ability that provides a movement speed buff alongside reload speed. The perks for this legend can be used to extend the ultimate ability timer and get double the amount of tactical charges to a maximum of four.

Ballistic's tactical ability can sway team fights in your favor as it can damage enemies and affect them with the "overheat" debuff. This causes them to temporarily cease firing their weapons, disabling them from actively taking a fight. This can be a major hindrance to opponents as you can rush them while they are unable to shoot back.

3) Bangalore

Bangalore is an ideal Legend for clearing out angles. She can deploy smoke grenades to provide cover for herself and her teammates, while simultaneously blocking out enemy vision.

Additionally, the ultimate ability, Rolling Thunder, calls in a concentrated artillery strike on a designated area. It works best to clear out enemies from a given space, or it can also be used as a getaway tool when required.

4) Revenant

Revenant is an ideal Legend for solo queue and a perfect pick for players who have exceptional aim and can lead the team with tactical entry. His unique ability, Assassin’s Instinct, helps to locate low-health enemies while supplying enhanced movement abilities, such as faster crouch walking and improved wall climbing.

The Revenant Pounce ability enables you to close the distance between yourself and the opponent. Meanwhile, the ultimate ability, Forged Shadow, allows you to create a hardened shadow barrier that can block incoming damage.

5) Rampart

Rampart is a defensive Legend recommended for players aiming to strengthen their position in Olympus. Her recent buffs have made her a popular choice in the current meta. Further, her ability to scan ring consoles provides valuable information, enabling you to position yourself in optimal locations.

Rampart's weapon, Sheila, is arguably the most effective in the game. Her new perks allow her to carry an extra ammo stack. This has also improved Sheila's handling and spin-up time, faster Sheila reload and Amped cover, and a -20% ultimate cooldown. All of these enhancements elevate her power, making her stand out on the battlefield.
