@Kyldenar What do you mean for intel?
@Gabrielmojo26 I believe he's just taking a break from the forum or he's just busy.
Additional leaks:
- Improvements to the Firing Range (dummies maybe will behave better and more realistically). This is still unconfirmed.
- Confirmed Seer big nerf, it seems on his passive ability.
- New Support class legends: Loba, Gibraltar, Lifeline, Newcastle.
- (huge but not confirmed so bear in mind this) Support legends will be able to craft teammates' banners.
- Assault class will get extra ammo (it could refer to when crafting ammo or the ground loot).
- (still not clear) New Red bins will give you attachments to your weapons if opened by an Assault legend.
- Apparently recon class will still be able to scan beacons but it will work differently compared to the normal zone scan.
@Cro_PitttI'll take tdm.
Is anyone else both excited but scared to death of all this? It's so many changes I fear it breaks the game.
@hayhorIt obviously will. And craft this and that... remove the crafter! Holy *@#!!@?+&@, why is this in the game?? Loot cheese with red bins. I'm disappointed though, where's the mention of more npc loot cheesing? 🤪 Thank Odin for Control where all this nonsense isn't a thing.
Come to Apex and craft something. While you're crafting, 15 squads have died. Have fun.
I don't know where this was found:
LL looking kinda funky.

I feel like the game/servers are gonna be a mess for at least a week, given the normal results of updates.
I also feel conflicted about so much change. On the one hand, overall the game has felt the most balanced as it has ever been. On the other hand, it also feels stale. We've got no choice in the matter. Big changes are assuredly coming. Hopefully Rspn can get things working in a timely fashion, and the changes can be embraced!
Yeah, the when the new recon legends scan beacon, they will see all the enemies in a certain area.
@CCbathwater Oh please the crafter is one of the most useful things in the game, do you really want to loot forever to not even find a battery? It saves a lot of time and actually makes you have a decent inventory.
@CCbathwaterThe crafter is a must have to offset the RNG of the loot pool. Batteries, blue shields when you find none in a whole POI, mobile respawn beacons mid/late game, purple helmets/mags, sights, etc.
I think I use it almost every game where I'm not killed immediately.
@Cro_PitttYou literally have to loot and rotate at the same time the moment you land, or all the BR haters in Fragment are out of the game by the time you're done crafting your bat. And that's if there even is a crafter in your POI anyway.
@HappyHourSumwurWho are you fighting after you've done crafting the entire Apex inventory list? Maybe you have actual BR lobbies, but my lobbies are just pure TDM's and dead after 3 minutes.
@CCbathwater Everything that reduces RNG is a good feature in the game, and that includes crafter. In pubs you don't need to craft a lot of stuff, 1 or 2 batteries are enough, you can do it fast if you manage to loot in a logical way and not randomly.
@Cro_PitttTrue, so if only the crafter would limit the biggest RNG/lotto factor in the game, i.e. hot-dropping, then I'd be onboard, but as it stands now it's a pain and takes away mags and other vital stuff I could potential need from floor loot, which I could find while on the run from the extremely fast closing of the health damaging ring, searching for the last couple of squads to fight. But no, let's put this stuff exclusively in a crafter. Put all guns in the crafter instead, so hot-droppers would have to take turns at the crafter in Fragment before they could pretend to be Shiv.
@CCbathwater Not sure why you're thinking that removing the crafter will somehow improve the hotdropping issue. Two completely different aspects of the game.
And putting guns in the crafter is a good thing, because at least those are guaranteed weapons you don't need to look for. If you want them just drop on a POI with a crafter. Countless times i've searched for a Flatline or a R301 and could not find any in the entire game, forcing myself to play with an Alternator or some other minor guns.
Additonal leaks:
- Ranked will have a daily map change (Stormpoint, Broken Moon and Worlds' Edge). No Olympus, we got robbed.
- Hemlock will go into the care package in a buffed version with Boosted loader (Rampage will return to ground loot).
- Longbow and Volt are going into the crafter, Car and G7 are back to to ground loot.
- R301 nerfed: damage reduced from 14 to 13.
- Assault rifles will see their hip fire accuracy nerfed to make SMGs, shotguns and pistols stronger in cqc.
Two whole seasons without my favourite map ;(
Why cant they just admit no one likes Stormpointless and deleve it?
No rev buffs once again lovely when the company has no clue
Please bring the Re45 back to ground loot! or at least but the base one on the ground. Its one of the only guns that allows me to compete with this broken MM system and hack infested game.
Detailed info on Seer and Bloodhound nerfs:
Seer
- Ultimate cooldown and duration is increased “pretty hard”
- Heartbeat sensor now has a charge-up time, so can’t spam it. Only get the scan on the heartbeat ‘pulses’, not constant.
- HB sensor now audible to nearby enemies.
Bloodhound
-Ultimate will no longer speed up tactical charge, instead, will now find "ethereal white ravens" around the map, that when interacted with, will fly in the direction of the closest enemy, guiding them into battle. (so the previous leak of Bloodhound was fake)
They literally destroyed Bloodhound and nobody was asking for that lmao.
Mirage
- After reviving, Mirage + ally will be cloaked for 3 seconds, but unarmed. If you draw a weapon, cloak breaks immediately. Additionally, when a clone is shot, the bamboozled enemy will now be tracked for a short time.
Lifeline
- Greatly reduced the slow penalty when activating her revive, and greatly increased the drop speed and range of her care package.
Horizon
- Accuracy on gravity lift has been reduced, making it more difficult to hit targets when floating. However, ”lift speed nudged up a little bit”.
Wraith
- Wraith can now place her portal twice as far as before, and will speed up as she travels that extra distance.
Pathfinder
- Pathfinder’s range and riding speed on zipline increased “significantly”, so can travel further and faster than before.
New unique perks for all classes
Assault (Ash, Bangalore, Revenant, Fuse, Maggie)
Can open a hidden shelf in new Weapon Supply Bins. Smart loot system provides valuable weapons and upgrades. Can also store an extra stack of Ammo per inventory slot.
Skirmisher (Valkyrie, Wraith, Mirage, Horizon, Octane, Pathfinder)
Can spot incoming Care Packages at a distance and see the highest value item it contains. They are also able to keep tabs on the revealed weapon and whether it has been equipped by an enemy team.
Controller (Catalyst, Rampart, Wattson, Caustic)
Legends have access to new devices called Ring Consoles, located around the map. These devices reveal the next ring location (transferring this ability from Recon to Legends who are designed to rotate early and set up in new zone)
Support (Lifeline, Newcastle, Loba, Gibraltar)
Can access hidden shelf in Extended Supply Bins, which contain high-value healing and survival items. Support Legends can also craft banners of eliminated teammates at crafting stations for 30 materials, even ones that have expired!
