Reliable Apex Legends<\/em><\/strong> leaker “Shrugtal” revealed a new piece of equipment that could be coming to the battle royale during the next patch. Apex Legends<\/em> Season 8 has just started up with the destruction of King’s Canyon and the introduction of the new legend Fuse<\/a>. With the second Anniversary Collection event said to be right around the corner, the patch that comes with it may feature some new items.<\/p>\n

Starting with Season 8, a number of guns and attachments were changed that tweak Apex Legends<\/em><\/a>‘ gameplay quite a bit. Respawn Entertainment removed the Double Tap hop-up, which would increase the EVA-8 and the Scout’s fire rate to two shots per trigger pull. The Anvil Receiver has also returned, giving the R301 and the Flatline more damage output for semi-automatic shots at the cost of more ammo used.<\/p>\n

However, a new hop-up may be coming to the game that will make gameplay very interesting. An Armorsmith hop-up will be able to attach to the RE-45 or the Alternator to level shields up faster<\/a>. Although it is not known what rate players’ shields will be able to level up at, the hop-up would essentially lower the amount of damage needed to level up an EVO-Shield.<\/p>\n
