Keeping your health level high in Apex Legends is extremely important. After all, this is a battle royale game where everybody is out to get you.
The good news is that there are many methods and items that you can use to recover your health. For example, you can use the med kit, the Phoenix kit, the shield battery and so on.
But did you know that you can also ask for health in Apex Legends?
Using this feature is not that obvious. In this quick guide, I’ll tell you what steps you need to follow in order to ask for health for you or other team members.
How can I ask for health in Apex Legends?
If you don’t have any healing items and your health level is not 100%, then press up the DPad pad.
This sends a signal to the game that you really need healing and you don’t own any items that allow you to restore your health. As a result, this will send out a signal to other players that you need healing.
As a quick reminder, if you want to ask use health restoring items in Apex Legends, press up the DPad and then hold it to access the quick menu wheel for meds. You should now be able to see your list of available seringes, medkits for health or shield batteries. Use the right stick to select the med that you want to use and then press R1.
In order to ask for health on the PS4, go to your inventory menu, go to your health box and then ping the item that you need to use.
Keep in mind that if you have a shield cell and your body armor is less than its maximum shield capacity, you’ll use a shield when you tap up.
