Apex Legends Season 1 is already out, with new character Octane included in the character list. The featured Octane is not hard to unlock, nor do you need any real-life currency to get your hands on him. Although it's much faster to unlock Octane through micro-transactions (750 Apex Coins), he can be unlocked for completely free by using in-game Legend Tokens, which can be collected by leveling up.

In Apex Legends, 600 Legend Tokens will be awarded to you each time you level up. To buy a new character, 12,000 Legend Tokens is required. Therefore, it is clear to those who aren't planning on doing micro-transactions to sacrifice hours and hours of grinding for the sake of unlocking a character.

Obtaining Legend Tokens would be a walk in the park for seasoned players, but not the same can be said for those who just recently got into the game. New players engaging in a battle can be considered as a gamble. Normally, the best way for new players to level up faster is by avoiding battles as much as possible. The main aim to keep in mind is achieving more survival time, teammate revivals and retrieving teammates. By doing this each time, you can gather at least 3000 XP, which helps out a lot in leveling up faster. Keep in mind that it is still up to you on how you optimize your grinding process to obtain more content. Some may prefer to play normally and just engage in battles.

As mentioned earlier, the easiest and quickest way to obtain Octane in Apex Legends is by using the game's premium currency and spending $10. However, for those who are fresh and striving to be better at Apex Legends, it is encouraged to grind more rather than splashing the cash in the early stages. More matches played will lead to increased performance, better character understanding and optimization, and improved map knowledge and awareness.
