โ Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Armor Shield Swap in Apex Legends?
An armor swap is the competitive technique of opening an eliminated enemy's death box and instantly picking up their fully charged evo shield instead of spending 5 seconds using a Shield Battery. Performing a 200ms armor swap during a third party restores 100 to 125 health instantly, turning losing fights into victories.
How fast do ALGS professional players armor swap?
Top professional players (like ImperialHal, Genburten, and Timmy) execute complete death box armor swaps in 150ms to 250ms on mouse & keyboard, and 200ms to 350ms on controller using cursor speed acceleration.
How do I exit a death box faster in Apex Legends?
In Apex Legends settings, enable 'Taking Damage Closes Deathbox: OFF'. This prevents the death box from closing abruptly while you are trying to click the shield. To exit cleanly after clicking the armor, tap 'ESC' or 'TAB' instantly.
How does this trainer measure swap latency?
The timer starts the exact millisecond you press 'E' or click 'Open Death Box', tracks your cursor travel path to the Armor icon, records the click event, and stops the clock when you close the box with 'ESC', 'TAB', or click, reporting your total elapsed time in milliseconds.
