Apex Legends Season 11 Weapon Buffs and Nerfs

Respawn Entertainment has just announced all the buffs and nerfs coming out in Apex Legends Season 11. Releasing on November 1, the update is said to bring changes to EVA-8 Auto, Peacekeeper, Longbow DMR, L-Star, and the G7 Scout. The update is a mix of nerfs and buffs and you would have to go through them if your favorite weapon is on the list.

Have you been an avid Apex Legends player? If so, then you would know that the game meta revolves heavily upon the weapons, and to stop a single weapon from dictating the way games go, it was about time that changes were introduced.

With the update notes being released, it seems like the developers are trying to bring the fan-favorite shotgun, the Peacemaker back into the meta with changes to its pellet size and choke speed. Additionally, we expect to see the popularity of L-Star take a massive hit as the weapon gets nerfed.
