Here are the strongest weapon duos! We're not talking about legendary weapons here, which are of course even better.
The duo of pros: Peacekeeper / Wingman
The lightweight alternative: R-99 / R-301
Note that in this case, the Peacekeeper is replaced by the R-99 if you still want to play with the Wingman, And the R-301 will replace the Wingman if you want to play with the Peacekeeper. If you have enough light bullets, the combo R-99 / R-301 is also extremely powerful.
M600 Spitfire
The Spitfire is a good medium range weapon. Its accuracy is quite good and its firing speed is high with a large magazine. We will prefer assault rifles like the R-301, but it remains very interesting.
Devotion
The Devotion is very powerful... with a Turbo Charger. His dps is masterful, the highest in the game, if you shoot long enough. Because of this, the Turbo Charger upgrades the Devotion from "Mid Tier" to "Top Tier". If you find one with a Turbo Charger, keep it. Without, it remains interesting, but less than some assault rifles or pistols.
With very high accuracy, very little recoil and a very high rate of fire, the R-301 is the best assault rifle of the moment, despite the fairly low damage per bullet.
Le Hemlok
The Hemlok was shunned when the game was released. But with its bullet-by-bullet firing mode, we discover an assault rifle with a good rate, very accurate at long range and inflicting interesting damage.
VK-47 Flatline
Stable and precise, this weapon has decent damage. Unfortunately, it lacks the dps and rate of fire of the R-301 or the accuracy and versatility of the Hemlok.
Energy weapon, the only weapon that can equip 2 different Hop-ups (but not at the same time). the Havoc is... bad. Its loading time before firing, its recoil, its bullet expenditure make it really unattractive. Even with a Turbo Charger, the weapon does not go past the bottom of the Mid Tier. To avoid.
Kraber .50-Cal
This sniper rifle is a weapon legendary (very rare). In addition to being the most powerful weapon in the game, it offers formidable precision. Be careful though, this rifle only has 8 bullets.
Triple canon
This rifle has the advantage of being able to use many sights, it also has a very respectable rate of fire and very good damage. Its dispersion at very long distances weakens it, but in hand-to-hand combat, it does an excellent job as a shotgun. The Precision Choke makes it particularly interesting. This is the best non-legendary sniper rifle.
G7 scout
This weapon is a hybrid between the assault rifle and the sniper rifle, very good rate of fire and large magazine, this rifle will be a very good asset in combat.
Peacekeeper
The only non-legendary weapon that has the -theoretical- one-shot kill capability, the Peacekeeper is the go-to shotgun. Its dispersion is sometimes random but its ability to turn situations on a good shot makes the weapon mandatory in your arsenal.
The EVA-8 cars
Besides the legendary rifle, the EVA-8 is a very good shotgun. High cadence and 8-bullet magazine, this weapon can make the difference in many situations.
R-99
One of the most powerful weapons in the game. The R-99 is not a medium range weapon like its big sister, the R-301 but with its very high rate of fire, its close range dps is excellent. A great alternative to the Peacekeeper.
Alternator
More stable and more accurate than the R-99, the Alternator nevertheless has a lower rate than its predecessor and remains quite poor in terms of damage.
Prowler
This weapon has few advantages, bursts of 4 bullets for a magazine of 20, its recoil and its precision are very limited. Decent damage isn't enough to make her interesting. Only a fire selector could make the Prowler playable.
Wingman
The great strength of the Wingman, in addition to the 45 damage per bullet in the body, is the ability to be able to move as fast while aiming as without aiming. For good reason, in Apex, aiming makes you walk slower, but not with the Wingman! Accurate, with a correct cadence, this weapon is essential.
RE- 45
The RE-45 offers decent damage and is a good replacement for the P2020 to start with. Simply throw yourself quickly on another weapon (Alternator, R-99...) before continuing your game.
