Assault Rifles

Havoc Rifle 

The Havoc is an energy ammo Assault Rifle in Apex Legends. It deals with 18 damage to the body, 14 to the legs and 36 damage points to the head.

It is a great weapon for close to mid-range combat and can be really useful alongside the Turbocharger Hop-Up. Turbocharger gets rid of the need for the weapon to spin up before firing. Making the weapon more viable in close-quarter combat.

R-301 Carbine

Hailing as the fastest firing Assault Rifle in the game at 720RPM. The R-301s firing speed is balanced with low damage range. It deals with 18 damage to the body, 11 to the legs and 28 to the head. Despite having a high rate of fire, the R-301 is very accurate in both close and long-range combat.

Hemlock Burst AR 

The Hemlock is useful in the hands of a chosen few. Let’s face it, not everyone can use burst fire Assault Rifles effectively. It deals with 18 damage to the body, 14 to the legs and 36 to the head.

The Hemlock can be switched between burst fire mode that fires 3 shot bursts per trigger pull. It can also be used in single fire mode. Being a burst fire weapon it is best used in medium to long-range engagements. Attach an HCOG scope and an Extended Heavy Mag for maximum effectiveness.

VK-47 Flatline 

The VK-47 Flatline is a heavy hitter packing Heavy Ammo rounds. It deals with the highest damage of all the ARs in the game at 19 to the body, 15 to the legs and 38 to the head. The weapons high damage is balanced with high recoil. Therefore, it is recommended to attach a Standard Stock and a Holo or HCOG Scope.

Sub Machine Guns

Prowler Burst PDW

Although the Prowler has the lowest damage rate of all the SMGs. It sprays in 5 round bursts and each bullet does 14 damage. With that in mind, if a player lands the entire burst on target. The burst has the potential to do 70 damage. Making the Prowler a deadly weapon in close range combat.

The Prowler is compatible with the Select Receiver Hop-Up which turns it into a fully auto beast.

R-99 

R-99 has the highest fire rate in its class at 1080 RPM. On the flip side, it deals with the lowest damage per round at 12 to the body, 10 to the legs and 18 to the head. The best attachment for the R-99 is the stock to control its vertical recoil.

Light Machine Guns

L-STAR EMG 

The L-STAR was first introduced in Season 2 of Apex Legends. It is a Legendary weapon that can only be obtained from Air Drops. It is a very unique weapon because it only takes special ammo rounds called Experimental ammo. 

The L-STAR deals with the highest damage of all the LMGs at 21 to the body, 17 to the legs and 42 to the head. Its high damage and rate of fire make it a killing machine in the right hands. However, be aware that the L-STAR can overheat quickly. Firing in short bursts is recommended.

Devotion LMG 

900 RPM is certainly a fire rate to brag about. However, this rate of fire is not constant. The weapon’s rate of fire slowly gets higher as the player holds the trigger.

However, the Hop-Up attachment, Turbocharger, negates the need to charge the weapon before firing. The Devotion deals with moderate damage at 17 per round to the body. All the way up to 34 for headshots.

M600 Spitfire

The Spitfire is the most effective LMG at long ranges because of its heavy-hitting rounds (18-36) and very controllable recoil. It also holds a lot in the magazine which is always a plus. A long-distance scope such as a 2x-4x Variable AOG or 3x HCOG is most effective on the Spitfire.

Sniper Rifles

Sentinel

The Sentinel graced the shores of Apex Legends in Season 4. It differs from other weapons in the game because it can be charged using a Shield Battery. Each charge with a Shield Battery guarantees 100 HP shots to the body. The Bolt Action Sniper rifle is one of its kind.

Charge Rifle

The Charge Rifle is an Energy Sniper that deals 45 damage per shot. This baby needs to be charged before firing. While charging, the rifle omits a beam that can cause damage if you’re on target. It is best used in mid to long-range combat.

Longbow DMR 

The Longbow DMR is a great all-round sniper rifle. It deals 55 damage to the body, 40 to the legs and 110 to the head. This means that if the enemy is injured, you have quite a high chance to down them in 1 shot.

If the enemy has no helmet on, a headshot will mince them to the ground. The Skullpiercer Rifling Hop-Up adds even more insanity to the headshot damage on the Longbow DMR. (As of Season 3, the Skullpiercer Rifling is no longer available in-game).

Kraber .50-cal Sniper

The Kraber is King of the snipers with an incredible 145 damage per round. It’s probably a good thing that the Kraber is only available in Air Drops. Like the L-STAR it takes Special ammo in the form of Special Heavy Rounds. This ammo cannot be looted or dropped from the weapon.

G7 Scout

The G7 Scout isn’t the greatest Sniper Rifle you can find in Apex. However, it does have the highest rate of fire because of its semi-automatic design. It deals 34 damage to the body, 27 to the legs and 60 to the head. The G7 is best used in medium-range combat.

Shotguns

Peacekeeper

The Peacekeeper just misses the spot for the highest damage rate among the shotguns. Coming in second after the Mastiff. The Peacekeeper deals 110 damage to the body, 88 to the legs and 165 to the head, provided all the pellets land. To enable easier pellet accuracy. Use the Precision Choke Hop-Up.

Mozambique Shotgun

A triple barrel hand shotty. Could you make it up? You probably could. The Mozambique is a moderately powered shotgun dealing 45 damage to the body, 42 to the legs and 66 to the head.

However, attaching Hammerpoint Rounds to this shotgun turns it into an animal on the battlefield.

EVA-8 Auto

The EVA-8 is the only fully auto shotgun in Apex. Interestingly, it is a pump-action shotgun with the pump part being automatic for a faster fire rate. The EVA-8 deals with 63 damage to the body, 54 to the legs and 90 to the head.

Pistols

Wingman

The Wingman is canny to a pocket rocket Desert Eagle. It shoots heavy rounds that deal 45 damage to the head, 41 to the legs and 96 to the head. The Wingman’s lethality is further increased with the addition of the Hop-Up, Skullpiercer Rifling, which bumps the headshot damage from 2x to 2.25x. (Please note, as of Season 3, the Skullpiercer Rifling Hop-Up is no longer available).

The P2020 is similar to the popular American made pistol, the Glock 19. It is a light pistol that allows for faster movement speed. It deals with moderate damage at 13 to the body, 12 to the legs and 20 to the head.

RE-45 Auto

The RE-45 is a fully automatic pistol. Therefore, it boasts the fastest fire rate in its class. However, its low damage and mag size are rather disappointing. The RE-45 becomes somewhat viable with Disruptor Rounds attached, which gives a well-needed bump to its damage range. (Please note: Disruptor Rounds are no longer available as of Season 3).
