Apex Legends Season 25 brings new balance changes, making it important to know which weapons stand out and which ones fall short. This updated Apex Legends weapons tier list recommendation by TimProVision covers every gun in the current version of the game, ranked from F to S tier. Whether you’re picking up a Care Package weapon or a ground loot SMG, this list outlines which options give the best results across typical matches.
F Tier: Worst Weapons in Apex Legends Season 25 (Apex Legends Weapons Tier List)
The P2020 and single Mozambique return to the bottom of the tier list. These two serve mostly as placeholders until players find stronger options or their akimbo counterparts. While their range and time to kill aren’t terrible, their low damage output and limited long-term value make them weak picks in any serious match.
D Tier: Underwhelming Weapons That Struggle
The Charge Rifle, EVA-8, and RE-45 make up the D tier. The Charge Rifle is fun when hitting long-range shots but lacks versatility. The EVA-8, once dominant, now feels awkward due to its faster fire rate and lower damage per shot. It loses out to stronger secondary options. The RE-45 offers fast handling, especially for sniper pairings, but lacks the damage to compete with higher-tier SMGs like the R-99.
C and B Tier: Decent Guns with Limitations (Apex Legends Weapons Tier List)
The Havoc sits alone in C tier. Despite a damage buff, it remains difficult to manage without the turbocharger, and its recoil makes it a tough choice.
B tier includes a wide range of weapons like the Bocek, Mozambique Akimbos, Alternator, Prowler, L-STAR, Devotion, Wingman, and Longbow. Each of these has specific strengths—Alternator is reliable early-game, the Prowler works well with a mag, and the Bocek saw improvements post-buff. However, none are consistent enough to earn a higher rank. The L-STAR and Devotion can shine with the right loadout, but they demand too many attachments. The Wingman and Longbow perform well in skilled hands but are still outclassed in today’s long-range meta.
A Tier: Strong All-Around Weapons
The Spitfire, Flatline, R-301, Sentinel, Rampage, Mastiff, CAR, and Volt define the A tier. These guns are effective in various scenarios and serve as reliable choices for ranked or pubs. The Spitfire and Rampage excel in team fights, with large magazines and solid handling. The Flatline and R-301 offer flexibility but don’t dominate at any specific range. The Sentinel remains Apex’s strongest ground sniper thanks to its charge mechanic. The Volt and CAR SMGs balance close-range usability with manageable recoil, while the Mastiff delivers heavy burst damage for fast knockdowns.
S Tier: Apex Legends Meta Guns for Season 25
The Care Package weapons—Kraber, Peacekeeper, and Triple Take—lead the S tier. The Kraber’s one-shot potential remains unmatched, while the new Triple Take shines with its choke speed, accuracy, and range.
The Hemlock and Nemesis follow close behind. The Hemlock benefits from buffs and offers solid burst potential. The Nemesis edges it out with faster kill times and better close-range performance, especially when spun up.
Next are the 3030 Repeater and G7 Scout, both dominant marksman rifles. The 3030 delivers massive damage, especially with Skullpiercer, and the G7 offers unmatched pressure with high fire rate and precision.
Finally, the R-99 and P20 Akimbos take top honors for close-range supremacy. The R-99 reclaims its place as the best SMG with raw speed and kill potential. The P20 Akimbos, even after nerfs, still overwhelm opponents with burst damage and fast swaps.
