Apex Legends Season 16 Weapon Tier List

In this video, the speaker provides a tier list of weapons in Apex Legends Season 16. The speaker does not cover care package guns and recommends viewers to check out the Gamely website for more in-depth guides.

D Tier

• L-Star: Despite receiving slight buffs, it is still gimmicky and requires too much focus on usage.

• P2020: Only useful as a placeholder until something better is found.

• Triple Take: Nice for beginners but mid-performing compared to other snipers and shotguns.

C Tier

• LMGS (Devotion, Spitfire, Rampage): Low damage output and difficult to control. High damage per magazine but makes players slow while ADS strafing.

B Tier

• Longbow: Decent long-range weapon but falls behind other options due to slow fire rate.

A Tier

• Mastiff: Powerful shotgun with high damage output.

• R99: Fast-firing SMG with high DPS.

• Volt: Versatile SMG with good accuracy and range.

S Tier

• Hemlok Burst AR: Strong burst-fire rifle with high damage output.

• Kraber Sniper Rifle: Extremely powerful sniper rifle that can one-shot enemies even if they have full armor.

B Tier Weapons

In this section, the speaker discusses the B tier weapons in Apex Legends and provides insights into their strengths and weaknesses.

Alternator

• The Alternator has a high damage magazine and is easy to control.

• However, it lacks the punch needed to keep up with other SMGs or ARs.

• It can be useful at the start of the game due to its accuracy without attachments.

Havoc

• The Havoc has a high damage per second but requires good timing to use effectively.

• With a turbocharger, it has a higher DPS than all other full-auto ARs except for the Flatline.

• However, it remains in B tier due to barriers to entry.

Mozambique

• The Mozambique is no longer weak with hammer points and gold mag.

• However, it requires many attachments to compete with other shotguns that don't need attachments.

• It's hard to justify taking over any other shotgun.

30 30 Repeater

• The 30 30 is great at mid-to-long range but gets dropped out of A tier because it's placed in the replicator.

• It's not worth crafting over higher-ranked long-range weapons.

A Tier Weapons

In this section, the speaker discusses the A tier weapons in Apex Legends and provides insights into their strengths and weaknesses.

Sentinel

• The Sentinel is more difficult to use than semi-auto snipers but allows for larger burst amounts with a single shot.

• Recent buffs make it easier to access its raw burst potential at range.

• Its output makes up for its difficulty of use as long as you charge it with shield cells.

Volt

• The Volt is an A tier weapon due to its versatility and ease of use at all ranges.

• It handles all ranges well, giving it the ability to have AR 301 ease of use and versatility with better mobility.

• The Nerf to the R301 has affected many other guns, making the Volt a strong contender.

CAR SMG

• The CAR SMG is a solid choice for close-range combat due to its high rate of fire and accuracy.

• However, it lacks the range and versatility of other A tier weapons.

Apex Legends Weapon Tier List

In this section, the speaker discusses the weapon tier list for Apex Legends.

Shotguns

• The Eva 8 is an insanely good shotgun and is a great option for those who have trouble with consistency when using shotguns in Apex.

• The Mastiff does seem to have a little bit of trouble with getting consistent burst shots compared to something like the PK. It's awkward spread makes it hard to achieve quick bursts.

• All shotguns received some insane buffs and are all pretty good, but the Mastiff is placed in A-tier due to its varying damage output.

Assault Rifles

• The G7 sits at the top of A-tier as it has a very high ammo capacity for a marksman rifle and has the fastest fire rate. It's easy to use, uses common ammo type, extremely forgiving, and does a lot of damage quickly when hitting successive shots.

• The Hemlok/Nemesis has higher damage output than both Flatline and R301 by a significant amount. It's easy to use but falls behind in close ranges due to its bad hit fire up.

SMGs

• The Prowler is extremely easy to use with insanely good hip fire. With its recent damage buff, it now has better chances standing up against other SMGs. Its five-round bursts make it hit like a truck if you manage to hit them all.

• The Charge Rifle is hitscan weapon in the game and can be very annoying to come up against, thus leaving it in S-tier.

Other Weapons

• The R301 and Flatline are still in a very good place and are likely to be some of the most picked weapons of the game. They're pretty tied for even.

• The Kraber is the best sniper rifle in the game with high damage output and one-shot potential.

This transcript only covers a portion of the video.
