Hey, so Respawn’s at it again with an update drop for Apex Legends. Yeah, that game—still kickin’ around with a steady crowd sticking to it like pine sap. Seriously, over 100k Steam players diving in daily. Wild, right?
Alright, right to the update chaos. They’ve fiddled with the Devotion and EVA-8, tinkered like some mad scientist who can’t leave things well enough alone. First snag: they ripped out that high-tier barrel scaling from the Devotion. Oh, and they shrunk the mag size. From 52 to 48. Feels like someone’s on a mission to nerf.
Meanwhile, EVA-8’s damage bump — it’s up to 7 per pellet now. Yeah, making a difference there, but they dialed back the fire rate. Fancy gold and purple bolts now align across shotguns too. Whatever that means. Can someone tell the difference mid-battle? Maybe. I just shoot.
Next, the Duels in Arenas got spruced up. Now it’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it countdown; quicker pace too. Kind of like they’re trying to cram a whole lot into short bursts. Makes your heart race, if you know what I mean. This isn’t just updated guns—they’re tweaking the whole feel of it.
But you have the crowd splitting opinions about the weapon shake-up. Some cheerleader types thrilled with the Devotion nerf, while others say, “Enough isn’t enough yet!” Can’t please everyone, right?
Remember that rework from Season 25? It seems like Respawn’s eternally tweaking things like it’s going out of style. Swear, feels like playing with clay, squishing things around until it’s “perfect”—whatever perfect even looks like in gaming.
These patch things gotta keep players on their toes. Who knows how Respawn dreams up what’s next? Probably plotting changes over late-night ramen bowls or something. Keeps the game surprising, keeps players engaged. Yeah, they’re sticking tweaks on Wattson and Vantage too. So they’re not leaving Legends behind.
You’ve gotta dive in for yourself—’cause, no doubt, soon as you’re getting cozy with the new feel, they’ll have more up their sleeve. Always something brewing. Keeps us hooked, doesn’t it?
