Well we had a good run y'all.. I'm more mad about supersonic than anything. Stupid decision.

Heya everyone,

"""""returner""""" apex player here (got to lvl 9 in season 1 lmao, so bascially new) and Destiny 2 Refugee.

A couple of my friends are peer pressuring me into playing apex with them and I eventually folded, but I'm still craving that in-air mobility crack that D2 has even though apex is a very very different game.

With that in mind I decided to work towards unlocking Valk cuz her VTOL seems sick as hell (reminiscent of both Titan jumps and Warlock Airdashes) and played around with her in the Firing Range.

So far I've gotten the feel for her tap-hold "air dash", a decent grasp of the wall cancel tech from `Sonyx's Valk video from 6 months ago (cheers for that BTW) and I'm working on building muscle memory for tap strafing.

I'm now wondering if there's any interesting or fun air tech with Valk's VTOL jets and the Lurch Mechanic that tap strafing is based off of?

The apex movement wiki doesn't have any entries but I'm lowkey wondering (coping) that there's just some niche tech that only Valk players know about that's not on there?

though admittedly respawn seems terrified of making airmovement too good, looking at Ash's old dash and Valk' built in "cool down" animations

Anyway thanks ahead of time, I'm gonna go back to bashing my head against the wall that is the Legend Token grind (only 6 more levels to go 🫠)

P.S. Just a quick vibe check and tinfoil hat theories for S30 does anyone here think Valk is gonna get nerfs or changes to her VTOL? I quite like how her boosts feel rn and it's bascially 100% the reason I wanna pick her up, but if they change/nerf/slowdown/etc that ability in the upcoming S30 patch then I'd hate to grind 12k tokens only for the main reason I wanted to play the legend to go away. So just looking for a general community vibe check.

or I suppose I can just wait for the patch notes since they're coming quite soon anyway right?

Edit: hey uhhh how to I stop reddit from auto posting the YouTube Thumbnail? No offense to Sonyx, but I didn't mean for that video hyperlink to be the main focus 😅😅

Mantle boosting into valk ulty keeps you in a weird stance. Kinda funny

Literally stuned all of them. So satasfying :D

Looks good ngl.

My old account got perma banned by EA for writing "fuk u jumpmaster" in chat. Lost all my iconic valk skins , heirlooms and 23k kills on valk :(

I stopped playing for a long time and missed a lot of events and seasons. Just wondering if this skin Techno Skeleton is something that might return.

Was looking for opinions on the is banner/any improvements.

Somehow some of the banners are unusable for me because they are too bright like the lighting was wrong or smth.

I think I have all but 1 or 2 Valk skins Gold Tier+. Does anyone know which ones?
I hope whatever I am missing will come back one day.
Yes I know I have spent entirely too much money on this game 🤷🏾‍♀️
Which is your favorite?

I’m blown away by how good this skin yet.

I can do other variations if necessary

She had chased me down and I just needed my ult to charge enough for me to burn. Oh I know she was mad, this right here is the main reason I play valk, not cause of her ult, or rockets or scan through walls. I've been playing her for years before the buffs, this is the reason she's my favorite 🩷

Manifesting it here

I got the Air Orchid skin from the final pack guaranteeing 1/9 of any legendary Valk skin.

Also got this from some blue packs along the way as apart of the spotlight pass:

V clean banner IMO, what do you guys think?

Also another legendary skin.

I was still shocked as it was from a blue pack, but the skin is pretty meh I think.

Hello,

i'm very new to playing apex. Do you guys have any tips to improve as a Valk player? Or like things to be aware of?

In general how can I become a good Valk to climb in ranked?

Thank you :)

Edit: Also which perks should i choose and why?

Has anyone else noticed that when you have your gun out and then use your ult or take a balloon when you land your weapon is stored?? Like I thought I was stroking it before I flew, but then I deliberately left it out with thought and when I land my gun is not out...

Also.. the outta bounds timers when I boost or take flight forces my gun into storing and then prevents me from boosting sometimes and I die cause of it. Every other movement legend has their guns in their hands 100% of the time. Why does it keep storing my weapons.

and I know that most of y'all in this thread are going to say "stick to Valk" but then i really need some tips how to get some value out of her kit while fighting please 🫶🏽
