Legacy Update Changes
Devstream
Explore the Legacy Update with the developers in depth. We’re going beyond Battle Royale! Meet the Arena mode with new cards, a new Valkyrie legend, an update to the Olympus map and much more.
Click on the video below to watch.
New in Apex Legends: Legacy
Arenas
Games go underground with the introduction of a new permanent mode — Arena. Fully rejuvenated and unimpressed by the glitz and glam of the Apex Games, former Supreme Predator Ash decided to bring the competition back to its roots. To a purer form of combat. nine0005
The rules are simple: 3v3. Destroy the enemy to win the round. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Victory or death.
Arenas feature a new set of special maps designed with close combat in mind (more to come in the future). Each round, squads start in a spawn zone where weapons, equipment, and abilities can be purchased and modified to fit a new strategy. The team that wins in three rounds and is at least two points ahead of the opponent wins. A 4-4 draw is also possible. In this case, the teams will be honored to participate in Ash’s favorite part of the game — «Sudden Death».
nine0005
Details on the Arena mode can be found in a separate blog post.
Sudden Party
In short, Mirage decided to have fun rides on the Voyage, but something went wrong.
The Sudden Party is one of two exciting special arenas where you can show off your skills. This arena is a luxurious square in the city center where players can engage in combat on the wreckage of the Voyage or inside the opulent two-story buildings that line the square. Be vigilant, this map presents opportunities for combat at different distances, both close and long. nine0005
Phase change
The phase transition on Olympus is unique, but it is not the first of its kind.
Phase Shift is the second and largest of our dedicated arenas. You will have to fight in a secret experimental zone on top of a mountain, where a fully working phase transition prototype is located. This map has a lot of room to maneuver, so get ready for someone to decide to wait and take you out from afar.
To emerge victorious from the fights at the construction site or near the exit from the phase transition, you will need to think carefully about your tactics and establish communication within the squad. nine0005
In addition to two new maps, the two-week rotation will include locations from three of our Battle Royale maps, allowing you to use five Arena maps in total. At the start, you will receive Artillery from Kings Canyon, Heating Plant from World’s End, and Golden Gardens from Olympus.
Valkyrie
Kairi Imahara, daughter of the Apex Predator Gyurza, found the remains of his Northstar Titan years after her father’s death. With Rampart’s help, she turned him into a brand new jetpack that would not dishonor the honor of the family. She has now joined the Games under the name VALKYRIE .
Passive Skill: Engines of the GDP
The jetpack will allow you to change position or climb higher.
The fuel supply is limited and you cannot use weapons while flying.
Tactical Ability: Missile Swarm
Launch a swarm of mini missiles that damage and disorient the enemy.
Ultimate skill: Sky Leap
Take off into the sky to travel long distances on the map. You can take allies with you. nine0005
Class: Scout
By scanning the landmark beacon, you can find out the location of the next ring.
Bocek
Composite bow Bozek (also pronounced as « bow-check «) is a high-precision marksman weapon, especially useful in skilled and strong hands. Hold down the «fire» key for a short time to increase the tension of the bow and the power of the shot. Maximum tension will provide optimal damage and charge speed. Multiple shots from the «Bozek» at the moment of maximum tension allow you to inflict large stable damage to the enemy. nine0005
«Bozek» uses a new type of ammunition unique to this weapon — arrows.
They are less common on the battlefield, but shot arrows get stuck on surfaces, making them easy to pick up and use again. It is possible to equip with 1x, 2x and 3x magnification GBOP optics, 1x holographic or 1-2x adjustable holographic sight. In addition, two never-before-seen modifications can be used to further improve Bozek — Explosive Tips and Rhythm of the Gunner. By the way, they can be installed at the same time! nine0005
Olympus — Lost Fleet Change
A fleet of mysterious ships reached Mount Olympus and brought with them an alien parasitic flora that began to take over the surface. The flagship of the fleet, the Icarus, docked at the city and changed its landscape forever. Fight in the uncomfortable halls of the ghost ship, search the corpses in search of a mysterious key card and stay alive.
More information about the changes to Olympus can be found on our blog about the latest map update. nine0005
So that everyone can get acquainted with the latest map update, in the first week of the new season, Olympus will be the only map in the rotation.
Changes — Starter Packs and Loot
- Players will now start a match with a «Starter Pack» of a Level 1 EVO Shield, Helmet and Knockout Shield, plus 2 Shield Slots and 2 Syringes.
- We have removed tier 1 helmets and knockout shields from the loot list.
- The chance of a Tier 1 EVO Shield appearing in the loot list has been greatly reduced. nine0102
- In addition to removing or reducing the spawn rate of these items, we’ve also reworked the loot list so that the high-level variants of these items spawn at nearly the same frequency, but more often with other types of items (weapons, ammo, health, ammo, etc.).
Developer comment
We’ve been wanting to improve the loot system for a long time, primarily to increase the importance of collecting it during the game. Another goal of ours was to optimize the loot list as we constantly add new items to the game. The recently introduced Alert Capture Mode helped us test some of the changes we’re going to make in the future by removing some loot, particularly low-level loot.
nine0024
Level 1 Helmets and Knockout Shields will be removed from ground loot because experience has shown them to be the least attractive and valuable loot in the game. They almost don’t give the feeling of «strengthening» the character, unlike, say, a backpack (extra slots are VERY cool!).
We’ll keep the tier 1 EVO shields in the loot list (albeit lowering their drop rate), and add them to the starter pack as they’re still important for the «shield swap» frills. nine0024
Finally, giving this gear at the start of the game will help you survive situations like Hot Drop: more health, some reduction in headshot damage, and easy KO protection will allow players to resist the chaos of Hot Drop for longer than before.
Stay tuned for more loot updates! This part of the game will be constantly improved.
Emotions
nine0004 Introducing emotions ! Immediately after the launch of the update, one emote will be available to each legend, and the rest can be obtained from Apex packs or crafted by yourself.
Assign your emotions to a special wheel and start showing off! Emotions are great for showing off to teammates in the Arena start room and, of course, for the winner’s podium.
We’re sure some of you have already thought that using emotes will be very useful for looking around corners, because using them puts the camera in a third-person view. Equal play remains our top priority, so enemies that your character can’t see in first-person view will remain invisible in third-person view as well. nine0005
This video shows how the Anti-peep function works using the example of a purple Doll hiding behind a rock. If not for this feature, the third-person view would allow Pathfinder to know what he should not have known. Anti-peeping is enabled for all emotes and cannot be disabled.
Battle Pass
Unlock and level up the Legacy Premium Battle Pass to unlock new skins, including Cunning Kitsune for Rampart (for Premium Tier 25) and Demon Whisper for Wraith (for Premium Tier 50).
nine0005
Legend changes
Characters with Stealth
- Stealth is no more! This feature has been removed from Wraith, Lifeline, and Wattson.
Developer comment
Wraith’s successful hitbox experiment showed that we can solve the balance issues between minor and major legends by changing their abilities and hitboxes. So, it’s time for Stealth to go after the dodos. (Dodos, sorry.)
Lifeline
- Field Resuscitation : No longer includes a shield. Now you can revive two players at once. An active revive can now be canceled so teammates can defend with their knockout shields.
- D.O.K. : Healing speed increased from 5 to 8 health per second. The time before the start of treatment is reduced by approximately 33%.
- Supplies : reload time reduced from 6 to 5 minutes. Now guaranteed to include an upgrade (if possible) in three categories: body shield, other gear (helmet, backpack, and knockout shield), and weapon mods based on your team’s gear at the time the supplies arrived.
nine0102
Developer comment
Lifeline’s abilities were not without flaws. Her passive shield was unnecessarily and annoyingly powerful, and her tactical and special skills increasingly looked outdated. These changes are meant to smooth out the massive power gap between all of her abilities, making D.O.K. and «Supplies» more powerful and effective, at the same time leveling the too double and situational «Field reanimation». nine0024
Octane
- Stimpak : Recharge time between uses reduced from 4 to 1 second. Health cost increased from 12 to 20.
- Increased dispersion of bullets when firing in the air and jumping from «Trampoline» on a low trajectory.
Developer comment
After the last changes, Octane continues to operate effectively. Maybe even too much? We’re still happy with Trampoline, but we’d like to make sure that Octane has to choose the right moment for the Stimulator, instead of turning it on recklessly.
nine0024
Loba
- Burglar’s Best Friend : You can now run and slide at full speed when aiming with the bracelet or while the bracelet is in the air. Loba will no longer slow down after teleporting.
- Fixed a lot of bugs preventing bracelet throwing.
- Black Market Boutique : Cooldown increased from 90 to 120 seconds.
Horizon
nine0100
Developer comment
Horizon is a powerful and popular character, but that’s not the main reason for making these changes. We think mistakes in Apex Legends should have consequences, so when Horizon can change a bad position just by using the whole battery, it’s not entirely fair. These changes serve two purposes: 1) to provide opponents with more opportunities to hit Horizon when she is at the top of the gravity elevator, and 2) to deprive the elevator of the advantages of an impromptu sniper position. nine0024
Fuse
- Cassette Knuckles: Fuse now has two charges of Brass Knuckles. Reload time reduced from 25 to 20 seconds.
Developer comment
More improvements are coming, but we don’t want to rush Fuse’s changes lest he turn into a legend that can kill you with just his abilities.
Bangalore
- Smoke gun: The veil of Bangalore has become denser.
Developer comment
In the last update we optimized Bangalore’s smoke particles and accidentally made them too small. The changes are intended to restore the original look of the curtain while maintaining optimization.
Bloodhound
- No longer receives assistance for Eye of the Allfather .
Developer comment
Bloodhound scans «excellent», but the main purpose of this change is to revise the mechanics of assists and their impact on getting rating points. The sonic scan itself provides benefits, so it’s highly questionable to count assistance as a non-damaging ability. Crypto will remain an exception. Crypto’s drone scan, which requires activation, is noticeably different from Bloodhound’s passive skill. We hope this will encourage Bloodhound players to make more use of the information obtained from the scan and eliminate situations where players can quickly snatch assistance without participating in combat to the same extent as Crypto. nine0024
Crypto
- Crypto Drone can now scan and open supplies.
- Drones can no longer be used to «hijack» an already active spawn beacon.
Weapon changes
Category «Marksman’s Weapons»
The G7 Scout and 30-30 are currently in the Assault Rifles category, which looks a little odd due to their inherent shooting style and usage patterns. In turn, «Triple Effect» looks out of place in the category of sniper weapons. nine0005
We believe that with the advent of the Bozek bow, it is appropriate to introduce a new category of weapons — «Marksman’s Weapons». It will include G7, 30-30, Triple Effect and Bocek. Weapons from this category are highly accurate. It is most effective at medium-long range and is an intermediate link between assault and sniper rifles. This will allow us to shift the stats of the indicated weapons towards more stable values for their class and reduce the spread in the stats of assault rifles and sniper weapons. nine0005
First, we will increase the movement speed when working with the scope for the Marksman weapon. Instead of having a value for sniper weapons, the speed will now be half that of assault rifles. In addition, we’ve tweaked the hip-firing dispersion to a point.
Supply drop changes
This season, we’re removing Peacemaker from our supply drops and replacing it with Triple Buff. Of course, as with any change to dropped supplies, the stats of these weapons will be updated. Below are the changes for each weapon. nine0005
Weapon Drop Chance:
Since we’re replacing the Shotgun with a Marksman weapon, it’s time to adjust the spawn chance of weapons in crates. The Kraber will drop less frequently in the early game and more frequently in the mid game, where its power can be used more effectively. The Triple Take will be the most common weapon in crates at the start of the game, and will be replaced by the Bloodhound by the end of the game.
Weapon replacement with all parts
- Added: Wingman, Bozek, R99, Hemlock & Guardian
- Deleted: R-301, Repeating Rifle 30-30, Mozambique, MB Longbow, Spitfire
Versions:
- Explosive Tips — Allows you to choose between standard fire and explosive projectiles. In the second mode, the projectiles are separated when fired. This modification can be installed on the 30-30 repeating rifle and Bocek.
- Rifleman’s Rhythm — The perfect timing of the shot increases the rate of fire. Can currently be installed on Guard and Bocek. nine0102
- To avoid clutter, Threshing Ammo and Skullbreakers have been deposited and will no longer be available.
Assault Rifles
- The headshot multiplier for all assault rifles has been reduced from 2.0 to 1.75.
Developer comment
Hemlock has already been adjusted, so this change is only relevant for R301, Flatline and Chaos.
nine0002 «Peacemaker»
- Comes with precision choke by default, which can be disabled.
- Shot damage reduced from 10 to 9.
- Ammo reloading time increased from 0.9 to 1.1 seconds.
- Reload time increased: normal — from 2.45 to 2.5 seconds, with an empty magazine — from 3.35 to 3.5 seconds.
- Pellet spread increased overall, and charged spread increased at all charges (from 0.
65/0.45/0.2 to 0.85/0.65/0.35). nine0102
- Loses charge quickly after exiting ADS.
Developer comment
Since the Peacemaker will not spawn in crates, we have adjusted many of the stats to their previous values. In addition, we have reduced the damage potential and slightly reduced the effective range of the weapon, since accurate choke is now always available.
«Triple effect»
- As a weapon from the box will be equipped with a magazine for 9rounds and 63 spare ammunition.
- Rate of fire increased from 1.2 to 1.3.
- Full charge time reduced from 1.1 to 1 second.
- Remains charged briefly after exiting ADS.
- Aiming movement speed has been increased to match other Marksman weapons. It is higher than that of sniper rifles, but lower than that of assault rifles.
- Increased dispersion when shooting in the air and when aiming.
Chaos
nine0100
Developer comment
This should compensate for the reduced headshot damage multiplier and adapt the weapon for medium range combat.
Spitfire
- Reduced recoil handling at the start of firing.
Developer Comment
The Spitfire is overpowered at the moment, dealing decent damage with low recoil. By making it slightly more difficult to handle at the start of firing, we gave the enemy more time to put up resistance. However, we are ready to make further changes if the Spitfire is still too powerful. nine0024
Repeating rifle 30-30
- Leg hit damage multiplier increased from 0.75 to 0.85.
- Aiming movement speed has been increased to match other Marksman weapons. It is higher than that of sniper rifles, but lower than that of assault rifles.
Developer comment
The 30-30 Rifle has received little attention, so we’ve increased its leg damage. This should make it more adequate, without leading to increased lethality in particularly successful cases. nine0024
Scout G7
- Aiming movement speed has been increased to match other Marksman weapons. It is higher than that of sniper rifles, but lower than that of assault rifles.
- Increased dispersion when firing from the hip (decreased accuracy). Now it matches the rest of the Marksman’s weapons.
Developer comment
The 30-30 repeating rifle and the Bozek composite bow outperform the main Marksman weapon in terms of hip fire accuracy, so we needed to reduce this parameter for the G7 Scout as well. nine0024
Longbow
- Headshot damage multiplier increased from 2.0 to 2.15.
«Slave»
- Headshot damage multiplier increased from 2.0 to 2.15.
Developer comment
As before, by removing the Skull Crusher from the loot list, we’ve buffed the Longbow and Wingman at the same time to balance things out.
nine0002 «Mozambique»
- Magazine capacity increased from 4 to 6 rounds.
- The bottom two pellets have been moved to the inside of the scatter area.
Developer comment
This raises the base level of power, so that «only» finding «Mozambique» at the start of the match will give you a greater advantage in combat. In addition, this change compensates for the lack of threshing ammo.
P2020
- Bullet damage increased from 15 to 18.
- Rate of fire reduced from 8.5 to 6.25.
Developer comment
As with Mozambique, we want to raise the P2020’s base power level a bit. Most players haven’t been able to take advantage of the rate of fire, so lowering the rate of fire as damage increases should help P2020 players win fights more often early on. nine0024
Arc star
- Removed movement and aiming slowdown after the first star hit.
Developer comment
Hitting someone with a star should feel like a celebration, given that it’s a rare and hard-to-perform trick. And if it’s arguable that a star that hits you should be a personal death sentence, then the lack of the ability to move and save teammates from the subsequent explosion undoubtedly makes it difficult to resist a well-coordinated enemy squad. This change should remove that question without downplaying the fun of slamming someone with a star. nine0024
Comfortable gameplay
- The emblems have been sorted into categories, and you can apply the filters «all» or «only unlocked». This offer came directly from the players. Thank you! So much better!
- Players can now see the health bars of everyone on the team when collecting containers of death.
- Challenges can now be marked as «favorites» by going to the Challenges menu and right-clicking on a challenge.
Featured Challenges will be added to their respective tab, which can be found in the lobby and on the match map screen. nine0102
- Press and hold F2 during gameplay to open a window with a description of your character’s abilities. This feature is only available on PC.
- Players can now request more advanced equipment by going into the backpack and tagging the desired item.
- The first change of challenges during the day can now be completed for free.
- When changing challenges, you can now choose between Arenas and Battle Royale challenges. nine0102
- Holosprays, taunts and emotes can now be added to Favorites. These will be used when the player is prompted to play a random emote.
- Club invites version 2.0: you can now specify what exactly you want to play by sending your teammates an invitation to the team in the «Club» tab. In this case, you can choose as many members of the club as you want from the list of participants.
- Rating: fixed a bug due to which the exit penalty was incorrectly applied due to errors on the server. nine0102
- Flight trajectory adjustments: Landing craft flight paths along the edge of the map have been removed. This will avoid matches in which there are no or almost no players on large areas of the map. These screenshots show the relative difference in flight routes through Kings Canyon before and after the changes.
Ring update
We’re continuing the work we started with the Night Fight update to optimize match pacing towards the end of the game. We slowed down the narrowing of the rings in the later stages of the game, so that you have more time to fight and move to the ring. We have also reduced the waiting time before the start of the narrowing of rings 4 and 6.
- Reduced time before ring 4 begins to shrink from 2 minutes to 1 minute 45 seconds.
- Ring 4 shrink time increased from 33 to 40 seconds.
- Ring 5 shrink time increased from 20 to 40 seconds.
- Reduced time before ring 6 begins to shrink from 1.5 to 1 minute.
- Ring 6 shrink time increased from 1 minute 40 seconds to 2 minutes.
