These are the damage stats for all weapons in Apex Legends

Which weapon is the best? Statistically speaking, of course.

Like all of its legends, the weapons of Apex Legends are all viable in different situations. Even though one gun may have more damage per bullet than another, that stat is balanced by influences as disparate as ammo stack size, recoil, and reload time.

Even so, sometimes, it can be useful to know exactly what a particular weapon’s stats are. If you want to compare two of your favorite weapons or know which care package weapon you should swipe from a death box, stats are the way to go. We’ve compiled the damage stats for each of the game’s weapons here, including related numbers like reload time and qualitative data like available fire modes.

These stats assume white helmets for head damage and do not include an attachment or legend passive modifiers (ie. Fortified). Reload times for many weapons also differ based on whether they’re reloaded while empty or with at least one round still in the weapon. Supply drop weapons have been marked with their original ammo type.

These stats are accurate as of Apex season 20.

Care package weapons always have a chance to spawn in from the neutral care packages dropping at the start of each new ring announcement. Currently, four weapons can be obtained from the care package, with two weapons usually rotated out each season. The current care package weapon rotation is as follows:

  • Kraber .50-Cal Sniper (Permanent Care Package Weapon)
  • Bocek Compound Bow
  • Wingman
  • EVA-8 Auto
