I have played so many apex games and everytime i had bane he was completely useless.If you are picking bane in the hopes that the stars align and you get the proper shards to solo the final boss pls don't.

enfeeble spill talent and meteor hammer is actually all you need. hero is pretty good

can you explain how this works ive never heard of this with meteor hammer
2
Sure. You wanna get the shard "shared torment". Then you'll enfeeble the closest enemie of a cluster that is chasing you and nightmare the same one. The whole group of enemies is gonna be nightmared then allowing for easy hit with your meteor hammer. Also buy the meteor hammer with bugged describtion that comes in one piece, dont be the normal meteor hammer from real dota. Even on apex difficulty this combo is very good.

why the "bugged" one? whats the deal with it
2
It's redundant anyway since anyone with a Eul's Scepter can solo Primal Beast.

What? How?

If you are alone, the Primal Beast follows this move pattern
- 3 x charge
- 2 x rock throw
- 1 x roar + walk towards you while golem rocks fall from the sky
- Jump into the middle and slam his fists that generate the lines, also known as "The Business"
He will repeat this pattern. If you Eul's just as phase 3 begins he will go back to phase 1, skipping the golem spawn and "The Business" phases. I normally do it right as he does his roar. This means he will never spawn the golems or do "The Business", giving you a very easy (but long) fight.
EDIT: If you are coordinated, you can do this trick with all 4 players still being alive, but it's harder as he doesn't always throw 2 rocks. Sometimes he does 1, 2 or 3. I believe it depends on damage dealt to him. But in any case, if everyone just waits for him to roar and then immediately uses Eul's, he will reset back to the charge phase.

There is actually a guide within this shitpost. Nice.

You can't skip the business when all 4 are alive.
4
can you post a short video showcasing the exact correct time to use eul's?
1
Only works if all your teammates are dead (in my case):
-dodge the 3 primal beast charges
-dodge the first stone throw then eul the second one
The primal will charge at you again instead of spawning creatures.

If the bane was useless that was on the player. So many rooms are trivialized by bane even without god shards.

i mean hes amazing the rest of the way through if you pick up the nightmare explode talent or the mind control one. Even just getting the enfeeble spill talent makes him incredible useful cause he can nightmare half the room. he's actually one of the best heroes in the game. You don't need to build him to solo the final boss.

2 shard mind control enjoyers vs 10 shard sweaty spinning boys. who bricks more runs?

Jug does fine with most shards. Most people just play and build him wrong.
You need to be extremly unlucky with shards for jug to not be a decent pick, even at Apex.
Bad shard Jug beats bad shard Bane.
Decent shard Jug is way stronger than decent shard Bane.
And lucky shard Jug does just as well as lucky shard Bane.
Bane bricks way more runs than Jug does.
I had exactly one run with jug where I got really unlucky and felt I underperformed and that is out of the 30ish Jug games I did this far (most on 4 and 5).

Yeaaaa jugg and babe are broken. Now if you said SK and Kunkka I would agree on useless.
-2
SK are weak yes...but kunkka is very strong even in apex and surprisingly one of the most versatile one cause he can be unkillable tank, magic nuker, aoe control or strong support in boss fight depending on the shard given so u rarely get fucked by rng.
He is one of the 3 hero that can facetank primal beast, the other 2 is omni and ursa.But omni only block 5 instances not exactly the best in this regard, ursa is ok too not hard to achieve that.But kunkka is the easiet just need 3-4 rum upgrade, 1 time X duration or cdr and only 1 legendary shard(doesn't need a 2nd one to combo) to achieve it so u have 3 chances to get it instead of needing 2 legend shard to reach it.He will reach 100% dmg resistance with 100% uptime.he can gives zero fucks to everything beast throw at him and just hit beast till beast is dead.Nuker kunkka does surprisingly high dmg per ghostship to beast,low cd too.Support kunkka can make ur team fully immune to beast "the business" from the rum bkb + ghostship fleet.Aoe control kunkka is the weakest since he's bad at boss fight but he can carry the team to beast room cause he can permastun 90% of the mob except few captain that is immune to stun.he can still help the team permastun the golem while the other 3 concentrate on beast so he's not exactly useless if u end up having bad rng and given this build.

in the hopes that the stars align and you get the proper shards
You just described the whole event.

Bane is good at winning a lot of rooms effortlessly, but he's not doing that much Vs bosses.
Plus he can really get fucked over with bad shards

I attempted this like a dozen times and I agree. It's not hard to get the right shards as he has a lot of good ones, but there's only 1 that gives him any real kind of wave clear so he's completely useless in rooms that aren't bosses. And even in boss rooms they usually spawns a lot of creeps so he's not always too impactful in those either.

How do you get to only one shard? He does have so many nice AoE shards that the chances of having an unlucky run are extremely low: Shared Torment, Dark Tendrils, Cloud of Frailty, and Sleep Terror all are very useful for wave clear or massive cc if used properly. Nyctasha's Congregation is nice as well to control units and let them tank enemies. Black Ichor and Fear the Dark might be sub-par, I have never taken them just because they do not sound very well and I like to build around Nightmare.
I find with other heroes like WW, Tusk, or Luna the chances are much higher to end up feeling useless if you didn't get the right shards.

Solo beast guide
Undying guide tho.
Get the Bury the living, tell your teamates to suicide, and just change house every 30 sec for 5min.
Never seen primal beast so confused and weak
We put our TA in the tomb and it turned into a tower xd
