Bloodhound's Trials is a high tierloot zone positioned on the northwest corner of World's Edge, west of Skyhook and east of the Uncharted Territories. It is a large cave inside a mountain, accessible either through the open hole in the roof or via the tunnels on the east and west sides of the mountain. In the center of the cave are three small vaults containing loot, each with a panel beside it; interacting with the panel begins a round of the trials. During a round, Prowlers will be released from the walls to fight the players inside. When all prowlers have been killed, the round ends and the vault opens. Each round releases more prowlers, but also rewards higher tier loot.
Lore
After the Apex Games was moved to World's Edge, larger predators native to the region vacated the area, allowing the Prowler population to rise. Their nest was discovered in a cavern west of Skyhook, and here, Bloodhound opted to build an arena, controlling the prowler population and giving competitors a challenge at the same time.[1] The arena is adorned with art and artifacts from Bloodhound's home village.
While playing as Bloodhound, players can interact with exhibits in the area to trigger a quote:
