Here are all the weapon changes in Apex LegendsSeason 10.
Apex Legends Season 10 weapon buffs & nerfs
L-Star buff
The L-Star has seen a number of changes for Apex Legends Season 10, so don’t be surprised to see it become a far more popular weapon throughout the season. Here’s what’s changing:
30-30 Repeater buff
It’s not a huge change for the 30-30 Repeater, but the reload speed from stocks has increased. With the amount of time you spend reloading the 30-30, this will no doubt be handy going forwards.
EVA-8 nerf
Only minor changes for the EVA-8, but it should now be better balanced alongside the Peacekeeper and Mastiff shotguns.
Prowler Burst PDW nerf
The former supply drop SMG has received a slight nerf as it returns to floor loot, with the Time Between Burst increased from 0.2 to 0.24.
You also won’t be able to use select fire on the Prowler anymore.
M600 Spitfire Buff
The ever-changing Spitfire has received a buff for Season 10, because it’s going into care packages, with the following changes:
Best guns in Apex Legends Season 26: Ultimate weapon tier list
Warzone has a new meta SMG after brutal LC10 nerf
Apex Legends Season 26 patch notes: New Wildcard mode, Legend reworks and more
In order to slow down the tried and true “spray and pray” method for LMGs, the headshot multiplier on these weapons has seen a considerable reduction, although there has been a slight increase on limbshot multipliers.
Pistol buffs in Season 10
Pistols received a slight buff in Season 10, with changes to the handling of the weapons. This should counter the hit they took from the removal of the Quickdraw Holster and reload speed moving from mags to stocks.
Apex Legends Season 10 Supply Drop rotation
Here are the changes to supply drops in Apex Legends Season 10:
Hop-Up changes
The Anvil Receiver and Quickdraw Holster are being vaulted for Apex Legends Season 10, making way for the new Boosted Loader. With this, reloading near empty (but not at 0) increases reload speed and overloads the next magazine with extra rounds. This hop up will be equipable to the Hemlok Burst AR and the Wingman.
Fully Kitted rotation
New season, new Fully Kitted rotation. Here are the changes:
Stock & Magazine attachment changes
The reload speed increase associated with magazines has been moved to the equivalent stock rarity tier.
As well as this, Marksman Weapons (30-30 Repeater, G7 Scout, Triple-Take) now take Sniper Stocks instead of Tactical Stocks. They will offer increased stability and sway reduction with slightly reduced handling bonuses.
Arenas weapon changes
As well as BR, there have been several changes to Arenas weapons. Care package changes apply to arenas, so the Prowler and Rampage replace the Alternator and Spitfire in the Arenas shop. Here’s the cost for each:
Arenas price adjustments
The following price adjustments have been made to Arenas weapons for Season 10:
