How to exit ground combat? An awkward situation...

_Loki

After spending a good 20 minutes in ground combat and finally winning the day! I'm left with an awkward situation. Victory yes, but no more energy cells (you can only carry 2 in your backpack), energy levels fading fast, no idea how to exit combat (outside of sprinting 500m from the zone edge with no energy and no oxygen) and only a single airlock I can access (given no cutter tool on the dominator suit), but given the flashlight bug I can't see anything to find another energy cell (if one existed there).

Exiting and restarting doesn't help...well, except it dropped me, still inside the combat zone, with no energy or oxygen and so I wait while trying to sprint away to recall my ship, slowly suffocating. Loosing my $6m bounties, but ready to respawn in my ship. Not really idea.

Any advice?

How do I make a better exit from ground combat?

Plus the flashlight bug is very annoying! I rebought a new suit (no Pioneer additions to this one) and still now light.

You need to apply the chest piece in the cosmetics section to enable the flashlight. Was hoping they fixed that in the latest hotfix but apparently not.

If you joined a CZ from Frontline, on victory you can recall the dropship, it arrives very quickly.
If doing Scav type missions you can book an Apex taxi to go somewhere local, it arrives in a pretty short time too - you can use the manage inventory to transfer power cells / medkits etc. - provided you bought a stock in the shop previously.

Are you in a CZ? There are recharge points scattered about. And you can recall FS once you look at the combat stats at the end of the CZ

Thanks! I had seen them but couldn't work out how to use them. Assumed the suit required an upgrade or something but some searching explained how to do it...WIN! That will make a huge difference

I landed directly next to the settlement and chose a side entering combat that way, so no dropship. But also no way to recall my ship until i leave the settlement area...long run on no oxygen. The recharge points and light fix should make that possible. Thanks!

Not sure exact keybind... but all suits has recharge tool on it. So all you need to find keybind , rush to recharge point ( if settlement is powered) and you will be ok

Your problem is fixed easily.

  1. Use the charge zones inside buildings and outside buildings you can't miss them they are marked on the mini map all you have to do is look for them.
  2. If you have used a drop ship to get to the CZ press E (or the key you re-assigned) to see the scoreboard the the same button again once you close the scoreboard to bring in your drop ship to take you back home.
  3. If you flew into the CZ and landed just recall your ship and fly home.
  4. If you have crashed or the CZ has borked up and your ride home is no longer available Call an Apex ship from your Comms menu (Q by default).
hope this helps.
