Apex Season 22: Best & Worst Weapons

Storyline Overview

The video discusses the current state of weapons in Apex Legends Season 22, highlighting the evolution of weapon tiers over the seasons. Notably, the P2020 is no longer considered the worst weapon in the game, reflecting changes in weapon balance and player preferences.

Weapon Tiers

D Tier (Worst Weapons)
- Charge Rifle: Difficult to use, especially for controller players; requires significant lead time.
- Longbow: Feels outdated; clunky compared to better options.
- RE45: Decent starter but not viable as a primary due to range limitations.
C Tier (Average Weapons)
- Alternator: User-friendly but outclassed by faster-firing weapons.
- G7 Scout: Good for damage farming but requires attachments and suffers from bullet drop.
- Rampage: Ineffective without charging; better for close-range hip firing.
- Car: Slightly buffed but still limited due to nerfs and ammo issues.
B Tier (Above Average Weapons)
- Eva 8: Viable secondary but limited in range; boosted loader is awkward.
- Sentinel: Best sniper on floor loot; can swing fights with charged shots.
- 3030: Good marksman option; needs a sight to be effective.
- Akimbo Weapons (Mosam Beak & P2020): Fun and useful; P2020 can spam effectively.
- R301: Slight buff but not meta; decent for mid-range.
- Lstar: Better close-up but inconsistent at range.
- Spitfire: Improved with gunshield hop up but limited at mid-range.
- Triple Take: Easy to use but inconsistent damage output.
- Wingman: Still strong but limited by magazine size and aim assist nerf.
A Tier (Strong Weapons)
- Nemesis: Strong in mid-range; automatic burst firing is advantageous.
- Vault: Good SMG; user-friendly recoil.
- Hemlock: Still effective despite recent nerfs.
- Flatline: Unnecessary nerfs; not as good as before.
- Prowler: Great close-range burst weapon.
- R99: Buffed but feels awkward in the care package; strong but not exceptional.
- Peacekeeper: Strong but feels slower; requires shotgun bolt for optimal performance.
S Tier (Best Weapons)
- Havoc: Still dominant despite nerfs; excellent in close-range.
- Mastiff: Increased damage makes it a top close-range weapon.
- Care Package Weapons (Karber & Bow): No changes; still top-tier.
- Devotion: Confusing buffs; remains a powerful choice.

Key Tips

Pay attention to the ammo availability and weapon types when choosing your loadout.
Utilize the akimbo mechanic for the Mosam Beak and P2020 for better performance in close-range engagements.
The Sentinel and 3030 are effective options for ranged combat, especially in ranked matches.
Always consider the weapon's strengths and weaknesses in relation to your play style and the current game meta.
