While playing this game on our consoles like PS4, Xbox, and so on, we have at some point imagined how fun it would be if we could play the same game on our phones. Well, thanks to Respawn Entertainment, that is now possible. Apex legend mobile has taken the gaming world by storm, since its release on the 17th of May 2022, for many reasons.

It offers you amazing guns, ten characters with all their unique skills, and much more. For more information on guns, go on over and read our guide on the best guns in apex legends mobile. In this Apex legends mobile fade guide, we will be covering one of the characters called fade in detail.

‘Fade’ is an exclusive mobile legend who is classified as a ‘phase punisher, similar to ‘Ash’ and ‘Wraith.’ Fade’s character revolves around his ability to escape conflicts and deal damage.

Even though there is not much information available on the fade, which is understandable considering it is a brand-new character, but after dabbling around with it for a while, we can say it is undoubtedly one of the best legends available right now and definitely gives Wraith a run for its money.

Now that the basics are out of the way, let’s dive right into our guide on fade in Apex Legends mobile.

How To Unlock Fade In Apex Legends Mobile

Unlocking fade in Apex Legends mobile is not a hard task, and it is especially easier if you are willing to spend some money out of your own pocket. There are two ways that you can go about unlocking this beast of a legend. The first way is free, and the second one will require you to spend some real-world money.

Collect fade pieces

This method of getting fade in Apex legends involves collecting 10 fade pieces as you progress in the game and then eventually using them to get fade. You will receive two fade pieces as you reach level 1, 9, 13, 17, and 25 on the free battle pass. Then, all you need to do is exchange all these fade pieces that you have kept in the store for fade.

This method of unlocking fade is free, but it will take some till before you have your hands on fade.

Purchasing fade

The second way to unlock fade in Apex legends mobile is to purchase him using apex coins. Apex coins or syndicate gold is the currency that you can use to buy different things in the game.

You will need a total of 750 apex coins to unlock fade. One of the cheapest apex coins packages will get you 935 apex coins for a price of $9.99.

This method will allow you to have fade instantly however, we suggest that you use the former method. Mainly because it does not take long to reach level 25, so you do not really need to spend all that money.

Fade’s Abilities

Fade’s abilities in apex legends mobile are mentioned below

• The passive ability of fade is slipstream
• The tactical ability of fade is a flashback
• The ultimate ability of fade is phase chamber

Slipstream

Slipstream allows fade to have a 15 percent movement speed increase for a period of 4 seconds after sliding. A downside to this ability is that it has a 10-second cooldown, so you cannot just spam it.

However, it is still advantageous because you can use it to slide in and out of fights quickly and possibly protect you from taking a lot of damage.

Not only that, but you can also use this ability to protect yourself from bullets that are fired your way. It also makes it possible for you to reach your teammates in need quickly or even take cover swiftly if you are under heavy threat from the enemy.

The cooldown might make you not use this ability but do not shy away from using it as much as possible. It is because this simple ability makes it extremely difficult for your enemies to catch you in one place.

Flashback

Flashback is basically a rewind ability that allows you to enter the void and go back to the place you were 3 seconds ago. This ability has a 20-second cooldown, and a really beneficial thing about it is that it caters to both the newcomers and veterans of the game.

The newcomers and the veterans can get confused at times when in battle because of the fast-paced combat. The flashback ability allows you to escape from such situations and hence return while packing a punch.

Another thing that expert players can do when it comes to flashbacks is use them to keep your enemies confused about your position. You can move into a different position and ambush your enemy from there. Your enemy will not even realize where you are coming from.

The fact that you can use flashback for defense and offense is precisely what makes this ability so elite and effective against your enemies.

Phase Chamber

Phase chamber is an AOE attack that allows you to send all legends within a specific radius to the void. Any legends within the void will not be able to deal damage to their enemy, and they will also be protected from taking any damage from the enemy.

If you are able to master when to use the phase chamber, it can turn the game around you. However, you will need to pay a lot of heed to who is getting caught in the area of effect.

The phase chamber ability can be used in several ways to your advantage. The most beneficial of these is giving cover to your team.

It is because in times when things are going extremely bad for your team, a few seconds of relief can prove to be enough to adopt a new strategy to decimate your foes.

Running away from a fight might seem a cowardly thing to do, but at times it is also the smartest decision one can make.

The phase chamber allows you to do just that while making sure that your enemies can cause you no harm. Therefore, if your team is down in the pits then this ability can ensure your departure to safety.

Best Team Comps With Fade in Apex Legends Mobile

Even though at the end of the day your team composition boils down to your personal preference but having the right mix of legends and hence skills can prove to give you the edge that you need.

There is not much information available on the best team comps with fade but what we know is that fade is very similar to Wraith and Ash in several aspects; therefore, the compositions that worked well with them will also go well with fade.

Keeping fade’s speed in mind, we will be covering the best team comp based on speed in this Apex Legends mobile fade guide.

Something that we highly suggest is using a composition in which you have characters that are equally good as fade when it comes to speed. You must also have a legend on your team who is capable of transporting the entire squad as fade’s flashback ability works only on himself.

That being said, a good comp with fade would be octane and mirage. This team completely ignores defense but you do not have to worry about that much as you will be too fast for your enemies.

A great advantage of this comp is that mirage’s decoys, when combined with fade’s speed, will disorient the enemies, giving you a vital edge in combat.

Final Words

As we reach the end of our guide on fade in Apex Legends mobile, there are some golden tips that we must leave you with. Remember one thing, if you want to unleash fade’fade’s potential, then it must be played by the most aggressive player on your team.

The reason is that fade is amazing when looking for enemies and starting fights with them. However, he can just easily escape from a fight; therefore, such a character is best suited for a player who likes to be aggressive.

You will have a hard time playing fade initially, but once you have mastered him, you will progress by leaps and bounds in the game.
