All weapon buffs and nerfs in Apex Legends Season 15: Eclipse

The seasonal update seemingly has it out for two shotguns.

Apex Legends Season 15 will be one milestone of an update, as it debuts the Broken Moon Battle Royale map and the game’s first trans woman Legend, Catalyst. That said, the patch is fairly limited when it comes to weapon buffs and nerfs. The latest season is altering just nine guns, but a majority of these changes are significant buffs. Here’s every weapon adjustment made in Apex Legends Season 15: Eclipse.

Every gun and attachment adjustment in Season 15: Eclipse

The most notable difference Legends will discover on Broken Moon and all other Battle Royale maps is that the RE-45 is exclusive to Supply Drops. As a result, the pistol comes packaged with a buffed damage stat and a stronger Hammerpoint Rounds Hop-Up.
