Rampart Prestige Skin
I just got my first set of heirloom shards since launch (i started on playstation then moved to pc, then lost my account and had to restart [meaning ive had 3 different acccounts so far and finally got some]), and I am having trouble deciding what to get because it's so rare that one has this decision (at least for the average player). I main Rampart, so the wrench looks desirable, however, I would be so down to get a prestige skin for her if ever that launched. I understand its unlikely because of her extremely low pick rate, nevertheless I would like one. Kinda just my thoughts out loud here, but I think after all the love all the other legends get, it'd be nice to get something for Rampart.Possible ballistic or idea?
Now one of the things I noticed as a ballistic is that I like the two tac upgrade. But hear me out on this. What if you just gave him two tacs and removed the upgrade with a separate one? Maybe even reduce the cooldown if he doesn’t get enough attention. But I’m always open to suggestions on how it works and doesn’t! So no worries on me wanting to judge!Ballistics weapon are the best thing ever, just add a penalty to them.
Hemlock is great, ballistic weapon concept is the best. Just add a penalty to using these weapons. 1- If you use the current hemlock, you can only use the hemlock, single weapon lock. Keeping the weapon the same is great 2- Make a ballistic crate, 2 crates or 3 create per map, will always be on the map from zone one. 3- the weapon are great, the change the META, they bring change to the game and they are fun. Just at a penalty to them so the player needs to balance the decision to use them. The current hemlock can stay, just make the hemlock and single weapon lock. so you can only use the hemlock which is great.Ranked is unplayable
The state of this game more specifically ranked is actually so trash, every other game it feels like I’m not getting a full squad or I’m dealing with smurfs. It’s so annoying and frustrating. I’m trying to play ranked and get killed by a level 40 wraith with a 20 bomb and 4k moving like she’s a masters in gold/plat lobbiesmy reactive skins i have does not work after a kill
my reactive skins does not work these are the ones( lightning bug for volt and the r99 mystic coil) the only ones i have. when i enter a match and killl someone with the skins it does not evolve i have tried restarting still does not work tried puting a new skin on and put the reactive back and still no evolving after i get a kill. but it only works in firing range no help! i tried to ask what was going on to streamers and they said that they dont have any problem and they dont know so i need help! tyRanked resets...
Don't help the competitiveness of the game if I only reset 2 tiers in plat, but masters/diamonds reset to plat 1-2. The first and last week's are unplayable and quick play is unwinnable with the non-existent mm. At least de-rank me down to silver to get the same feeling as they do stomping my ranked games.Please stop VPN use like Valorant does
Please do something about VPN abuse, I'm tired when cheaters from another area join my servers. The cheating situation in this game is insane. If you ban someone they just make a new account and join again. People hide behind so much to cheat, at least try to take ban tactics awayKilled a Pro → Instant Ban Next Game (HWID?)
I am a PC player from Taiwan. On March 11th, my account was suddenly banned while I was in a match. At the time, I believed it was a mistake and continued submitting appeals, hoping to receive a proper manual review. After that account was banned, I continued playing on my other personal accounts using the exact same setup and environment. I was able to climb from 16,000 KP to 28,000 KP without any issues, and none of those accounts were flagged or banned during that time. However, on March 24th, during a livestream, I eliminated a professional player from China, “Kongbai” from RT team. Immediately after that, my account was banned in the very next match. For transparency, here is the exact clip where I eliminated the professional player during my livestream: https://www.twitch.tv/yu851123/clip/SmellyPiercingSrirachaAsianGlow-tZBIa-w5slS8l39- This is the moment that was immediately followed by my account being banned in the next match. I have since confirmed that this player did report me through a channel that is not available to regular players. Because of this, I have strong reason to believe that this ban was not purely an automated system decision, but may have been influenced by a manual report. Additionally, after this incident, multiple accounts I used on the same device were also banned. This leads me to suspect that my system may have been hardware banned (possibly an HWID ban affecting my motherboard or system). I want to emphasize: I have over 10,000 hours of playtime in Apex Legends, and I have always played legitimately without using any cheats or exploits. All of my gameplay was streamed live, and I have full VOD recordings that clearly prove I was not using any cheats, hacks, or unfair tools. The only external program I have ever used is a simple crosshair overlay, which does not interact with the game or provide any unfair advantage. As for my setup, I strictly play on controller: G7 Pro 8K ZD Ultimate Legend I do NOT use XIM, adapters, scripts, or any kind of cheating device. I have already submitted nearly 10 appeals, and every single one was rejected with the same automated response. I have now reached the maximum number of appeals allowed and have no remaining way to request further review. I am fully willing to cooperate with any kind of manual investigation, including providing full gameplay recordings, input proof, or even hardware checks. I simply want the truth to be verified. At this point, I have no other option but to speak out through the community. If anyone from EA or the community has any advice, or knows of another way to escalate this issue, I would sincerely appreciate your help.Apex legends cross progression
So I spent a lot of money on my apex account on my ps5 and now I’m on pc I linked both of my account already and still haven’t gotten no message or anything it’s really frustrating because I’ve spent so much money so when I load in on pc I have nothing I’m back to level 1 can someone help me get my stuff on pcAccount banned for gameplay enhancements
Hello my account : Tsarbombax has been banned the 11th March 2026 for gameplay enhancement. At the beginning I was lost and thought that was because of the gamesir G7 pro controller because recently a lot of players using that controller got banned for no reason . Then I realized that day , a different IP address was on my account and also I found a lot of suspicious IP address on my account . I did multiples ban appeal to prove that I’m not lying but they are all getting declined. I really need help it’s been since season 0 I’m playing the game I bought the ultimate battle pass . I have over 1000 legendaries items on my account . I have 74.6k Kills . Multiples preds and I swear to god I never cheated. Also the hacker somehow got access to my account even with the ban on it . Please I’m so mad and sad because I was going to do the OPEN ALGS game I couldn’t and now I can’t even play comp . So please review my case properly. I play on Xbox (zTsay) and PlayStation (iTsay-) I need help asap . Case number : 240518076Kill and Damage blocking
I've played several hours tonight and got maybe 4 kills. I am shooting enemies and then they just stop taking any damage, impossible to down them, on one shot left i can keep hitting them with shots and nothing. Then my teammates end up knocking. It doesn't make any sense. Why are bullets just bouncing off my opponents when they're near death? Dealing zero damage, but very evidently hitting them? This is not going to encourage engagement or spending - i binned off Battlefront for the same reason.Weapon in apex legends .
I can understand that the developers want to play weapons (either they say they don't play to make them play even if they were already playing a lot) but please stop doing anything they have the alternator that has become too strong the re-45 too and now the hemlok... it's really anything it shows that he doesn't play their games because then people play that game this force to play alternator, re-45 and now hemlok because it's just too strong and too strong It's easy to make lots of kills (even if they're bad.) Except that the problem is that this meta weapon to assist totally destroys the game.! Because now an R-301 can no longer face a hemlok or an alternator because its **bleep** weapon... lays you down in only 6 balls and has 0 setbacks... so concludes all players now play its cheat weapon except the good players but now the good players get destroyed share of the nubs just because the developers have fun destroying their games. Please stop returning weapons too strong for nothing and return to the base (all weapons are worth it.) Otherwise your game will become even more dead. Frankly, it doesn't make you want to keep playing Apex Legends when you start a game and you die in 2s just because the person in front of you is playing a hemlok, re-45 or alternator.Banned, no way to appeal for weeks then rejected in 10 minutes
I want to share my full experience here. The details at the beginning are just for reference, but what really matters is what happened afterwards. My account was banned after my last session around 11 March 2026. I was not banned during gameplay — I had already exited the game when the ban happened. According to the data I could download, my last match ended at 2026-03-11T19:06:17Z (disconnect by user), anti-cheat activity ended at 19:12:01Z, and the ban was applied later at 20:44:07Z. So the ban clearly happened after I stopped playing. What makes this even more frustrating is that I actually had NVIDIA Instant Replay enabled specifically in case something like this ever happened. But since the ban occurred well after I exited the game, the replay buffer (which only keeps the last ~20 minutes) was useless. There was simply no way for me to capture the moment the ban was applied. Also, according to my data, the previous time I played before March 11 was March 8 — when I was streaming. So there is a clear gap in activity, and I do have full recordings from that session which I am completely willing to provide. I’m not going to argue endlessly about whether the ban is correct. I’ll just state clearly that I did not use any cheats — no aimbot, no aim assist tools, no XIM/Cronus/Strikepack, no scripts, no cfg exploits. I’ve read the rules and I know what is allowed. The only things I did that might look different are these: I use UU Accelerator because otherwise my ping is over 300ms and I can’t realistically play on Asian servers, while matchmaking in Australia can take extremely long. I modified a keybind config to invert sprint behavior (auto sprint by default, hold to walk), and I edited my videoconfig.txt to get a proper 16:10 resolution on a 2K monitor. I also own a controller, but I haven’t used it in Apex for a long time — during my last sessions it was only plugged in via receiver and not actually used. The receiver being plugged in does not activate the controller, and throughout my gameplay the in-game input indicators consistently showed keyboard and mouse only, with no controller input detected at any point. My keyboard is a Nuphy 60 HE (magnetic switch), and my mouse is an ATK F1 Extreme, both of which I have been using consistently for months without any changes. I do not use any macros or input automation. The only configuration on my keyboard is enabling the rapid response feature for WASD keys, which is a built-in hardware feature and does not inject or modify inputs. This also happened during the recent anti-cheat wave targeting converter-type devices. I understand and fully support banning those devices, but I have never used any converter or similar hardware. If anything, my system environment should be even cleaner than usual. About two weeks before the ban, I completely reinstalled Windows because another FPS game’s anti-cheat broke my WSL environment, which I need for development. So my system was essentially fresh at that point. I can also see that I was reported multiple times for aim snap, which might be related, but again, I have never used anything that would cause that. I clearly stated in my appeal that I can provide video evidence, and I am still willing to do so. All of that is just context. The real problem started after the ban. For over two weeks, I couldn’t even submit an appeal. The EA Help website just loops you between pages — one explaining appeals, and one where submissions fail with “case not created.” There is no clear way to contact a real person, only an AI chatbot giving irrelevant answers. I couldn’t find any proper entry point to reach support. I was effectively locked out of the appeal system entirely. In the end, the only way I managed to contact a human was by logging out and choosing a completely unrelated support category. That workaround came from this forum, not from EA’s own system. To be clear, I don’t blame the support agent. He did what he could and helped create a case for me. But he also can’t fix a broken system. And then came the part that really made me give up. The case was created at 10:54 AM and declined at 11:04 AM — about 10 minutes. No one contacted me. No one asked for the video evidence I explicitly offered. No one gave me a chance to provide anything further. I mentioned multiple times that I have recordings. I told the support agent as well. I was even told there might be a way to submit them later. But in reality, nothing happened. The case was simply closed with a template response. At that point, it’s hard to believe anyone actually reviewed the information. In such a short time, it really makes you question whether a human was involved at all. After spending two weeks just trying to submit an appeal, this “review” felt meaningless. And honestly, that’s the worst part of this entire experience. I’ve seen other games handle uncertain cases differently. For example, in some cases games like Valorant may apply temporary restrictions when behavior looks suspicious but cannot be fully confirmed, instead of immediately issuing permanent bans without giving players any real opportunity to respond. In comparison, this process felt extremely one-sided. I used to genuinely enjoy Apex. I’ve told many people it’s one of the best FPS games out there. I’ve been a long-time EA player as well — I’ve played Battlefield 1 and V, pre-ordered Battlefield 6, and finished Titanfall 2’s campaign. I was even invited to Battlefield Labs testing, although I couldn’t participate. I’ve never had any issues on my account before. But after going through this, I’m just tired. At this point, this doesn’t even feel like an appeal system anymore. It feels like decisions are made without any real way for players to respond or provide evidence. And the fact that I can only even say this here on the forum — because there is no proper way to submit a complaint through the official system — says a lot. I could create a new account and keep playing. But I don’t want to. After this experience, I won’t be playing Apex anymore, and I won’t be spending time or money on EA titles going forward. I’m sharing this so others know what the process currently looks like. If something goes wrong, don’t expect a real chance to explain yourself. And that’s why I’m walking away.Bug in the Hundred Packs Activity
After purchasing the Hundred-Crate Event, I upgraded all of them to Wishlist Combo Packs. Then, while opening crates, I encountered a bug when trying to open 30 crates at once. During the process of opening 30 crates in one go, a message appeared stating that a server error had occurred and to try again later. However, I did not receive the rewards for these 30 crates afterward, nor were the 30 crates returned to me.This has given me a really terrible gaming experience.Ranked Match Disputes.
There is no reason as a Plat ranked player should I be getting a Silver Rank as a teammate and if I do I should not lose RP especially on their mess up and lack of comms. I pinged everything I was doing and both my teammates were silent nothing. Even if they’re in a group they shouldn’t be able to play together with the other player being another Plat Rank. EA please fix this.
Play during day = bad, play during evening/night = better
Is it just me or are all the BAD/TERRIBLE/KIDS players play during the day and the good/serious players play during the evening/night? Intelligent humans are patter recognition machines, and it seems that on the daily the n00bs play during the day, you know, Octane users, hot droppers, mentally retarted players... And the serious good ranked players play during the day/evening, you get good matches, not wins all the time but top 5 placement with positive RP... Seems to me playing during the day you just loose a bunch of RP and during evening/night you farm some... The ranking system needs a tweek, if you are constantly dying in the first minute or two because your octane team wants to hot drop and suicide every time, it should queue you with non stupid players based on PATTERNS... Also, something everyone thinks but no one says, if you have no skill you have to 3rd party, bad players will never understand nor have an honest fight in their life, and I get it, BR is 3rd party by default, but still does not remove the OBJECTIVE FACT that if you 3rd party, even if it gives you kills, rank and wins, you are still lesser than those who had honest fights...What's the point of Ash's tactical snare?
It doesn't seem to do anything - whether I use it or it's used against me... it offers enemies about 10m radius of movement, so the usual range of movement most fight with if they walk to the edge of it (5m) it just snaps How it COULD be good: the radius needs to be a lot tighter, and maybe add slowing, as well as not snapping. It really needs to hinder an enemies movement. When it snags you you can still sprint around and just run to the edge and it snaps - what's the point?
