One of Apex’s strongest weapons last season has become one of its weakest—unless you’re lucky

After the changes brought in Season 18 and Revenant’s rebirth, Apex Legends now has two weapons that cannot take down someone wearing a red shield if you hit all body shots. 

Reddit user u/Ninjafish_TTV posted this “worthless piece of trivia” on the Apex subreddit on Aug. 8, noting that the R-99 submachine gun—which just exited the crafter this season—has joined the RE-45 machine pistol as the only weapons that can’t down a player in one magazine with body shots if they have full health and red shields, thanks to its reduced base clip.
