Apex Legends Players Discover Insane Crypto Stealth Exploit in Season 22

Shortly after Season 22 was released, players quickly uncovered an exploit with his new stealth passive that allows him to perform actions while completely invisible, which greatly alters gameplay.

Despite being a powerful player in coordinated and high-level gameplay, Crypto has struggled to be effective in the hands of average players, making him an unpopular Legend.

Therefore, the introduction of Season 22 granted Crypto the capability to use stealth while controlling his drone, greatly enhancing his reliability in challenging scenarios. This newfound stealth also allows the Legend to perform actions that may not have been originally intended.

As the Season progresses, players are likely to discover additional strategies, but there is already a prominent exploit: healing while being stealthed.

Phisheyy, a player of Apex Legends, was among the first to uncover that using a healing item while throwing the drone provides full stealth healing.

Despite the potential of this exploit, there are certain limitations to its effectiveness. If the drone is already active and you are simply accessing its feed, the exploit will not function. The healing item will only activate if you toggle it at the exact moment the throwing animation is initiated.

However, you can quickly start flying the drone while the heal is activating, ensuring that its position does not reveal your hiding spot if you release it swiftly enough.

In addition, utilizing this exploit allows you to pop a Phoenix Kit while in stealth and immediately follow up with an EMP, resulting in entering a fight with full HP and being within the radius of your own EMP. It is also possible to do this with a Shield Battery, but the timing must be precise to avoid damaging your own shield.

Despite Crypto’s limitations in making an immediate and significant impact in a fight when he is already involved, this exploit provides skilled players with a great opportunity for outplaying their opponents.
