Fair warning ladies, gents and themts, besides a few days ago, I haven’t touched Apex Legends since Season 11 days just before or after The Great Glitchfest of Apex… Featuring David Attenborough.
But hey, I like working with what I have and giving the best I can from that: There’s a laptop in front of me, a couple tutorial tabs next to an Overanalyzing Avatar video in the background and a couple month-old wasp corpses behind the window sill! Let’s see what ungodly unhinged cocktail of gaming edutainment I can spin from this.
Season 12, Key Gameplay Summaries: For starters, the CAR Sub Machine Gun (SMG) from Titanfall 2 is here to stay. Some balancing changes were made to gameplay, plus a range of new guns, meaning Apex now boasts a gun-roster of two-dozen!
We’re also peddling an Apex Legends CHAMPIONS EDITION if you want in on that!
The Alternator SMG is also now a floor-loot item, replaced with the Volt SMG as a seemingly more powerful alternative… Hold up, the Alternator got Alternated!? That’s some Shakespearean irony on a whole other level!
The Peacemaker shotgun and Triple Take energy rifle also got buffs while Flatline got partially nerfed (that’s gamer lingo for weakened to you and me). You can only hold 2 guns maximum into battle, so choose wisely.
Without further ado, let’s break down some of the best in-game weapons! I’ll also go into detail about ammo types after.
The M600 Spitfire: Heavy Machine Gun. Despite some light nerfing, it can drop in care packages alongside extra buffs. The large magazine size and firing stability during long rates of fire also make it a must-have for players who prematurely shoot off into the sunset and need a little extra time to line up a good shot.
Kraber .50 CAL A: Care Package Sniper Gun: For my fellow short-sighted kings, getting your hands on a good sniper gun can do a world of good. I mean, what better way to take out an enemy player than using something that puts as much distance between the two of you as possible? And if you spend enough time in the shooting range, a head shot from this hefty tool can turn you into the gun-toting equivalent to One Punch Man! Very much a high-risk high-reward weapon.
R-301 Carbine. Light Assault Rifle: On the other hand, working up-close and personal means you’re more likely to hit the other bloke, which can work out if you have the armor to survive a good bout of firearm jousting! And if you want to boost your Light Machine Gun skills even more, Rampart’s passive skill is increased magazine sizes, heat capacity and reload speeds to LMGs, letting you fire longer.
VK-47 Flatline: Heavy Assault Rifle. Needless to say, my noob self always assumed “oh, is a heavy gun, therefore best becoz ‘ard”… Well, I was partially right, but that didn’t stop me taking shots out back like pornstar martini (minus the martini). It may have medium damage nowadays, but the recoil is good for stability and the medium-to-long range uses are effective.
Volt! Supply Drop SMG. Now one of the new top-dogs in terms of damage output, this bad boy may be harder to find in a care package or supply drop, but definitely worth it! And SMG’s in general are good if you want to channel your inner DP(S).
