Apex Legends Season 14 Weapon Changes
In terms of attachments, a new hop-up is being introduced inApex Legends. This hop-up is called laser sights, and they are designed to reduce hipfire spread on close-range weapons, namely pistols and SMGs. Fans will be able to change the color of their laser too.
Some of the more drastic changes include the Spitfire and Wingman changingammo types inApex Legends.
The EVA-8 will be getting buffed, with its fire rate increasing, with stocks able to be equipped now, and the double-tap coming on the weapon automatically.
The Skullpiercer is back, with the Wingman, Longbow, and 30-30 able to equip it.
The Bow and Rampage are going into theCare Package. The Volt and G7 are coming to floor loot.
Apex Legends Season 14 Gold Item Changes
The biggest change for gold items is the complete removal ofSelf-Revive inApex Legends. Many fans have been requesting this, due to issues it can cause at high levels of play, and Respawn has done it. Now, the Gold Backpack’s former Guardian Angel perk is now used on the Gold Knockdown Shield, which means those who have it can resurrect someone else with increased health and shields. This change is likely to benefit Newcastle quite a bit.
With Guardian Angel moving to theGold Knockdown Shield, the Gold Backpack is getting a new perk that allows players to stack another Shield Battery, Med Kit, and Phoenix Kit. So, while other backpacks allow players to stack two Batteries, two Med Kits, and one Phoenix Kit, the Gold Backpack allows players to stack three batteries, three med kits, and two Phoenix Kits.
Apex Legendsis available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
