Every weapon buff and nerf in Apex Legends Season 25 Split 2
The meta just got shaken (again). Apex Legends Season 25 Split 2 is here, and Respawn has dropped some slick weapon tweaks to keep the gunplay spicy. From subtle buffs to key nerfs, these mid-season changes are all about making sure no one gun dominates the lobby.
Here are all the buffs and nerfs to weapons in Season 25 Split 2.
All Weapon Buffs and Nerfs in Apex Legends Season 25 Split 2

Assault Rifles (ARs)
Havoc AR (Previous Hotfix)
The energy beast just got even spicier.
Recoil improved
– Way easier to beam now.
Damage increased to 20 (from 19)
– That extra point
adds up fast
, especially with turbo.
EVERYTHING NEW in APEX SZN 25 SPLIT 2 (Wattson BUFFS + Ash NERFS & More!)
Hemlok Burst AR
Trying to make burst guns cool again? Maybe.
Reduced burst fire delay
– You'll feel the bursts hit quicker, making it smoother in fights.
Marksman Weapons
30-30 Repeater
This one took a Skullpiercer slap.
Uncharged headshot reduced to 80 (was 86)
Charged headshot reduced to 120 (was 130)
Headshot fans might feel this one. Still deadly, but less punishing now.
Bocek Compound Bow
(Previous Hotfix)
This silent killer just got deadlier.
Explosive arrow hit damage increased to 55 (from 40)
Increased fire rate
– Faster spam if you've got the arrows.
Max charge damage upped to 65 (was 55).
Shotguns
Mastiff
No damage buffs, but smoother feels.
New ADS firing animation
– The weapon now returns to center screen quicker.
While it doesn't change the damage, it smoothens the feel of ADS play, especially for close-range duels.
SMGs
Prowler Burst PDW
The burst SMG got a much-needed glow-up.
Better horizontal recoil (burst + full-auto) –
More stable during both burst and full-auto.
Reduced burst fire delay
– Tighter follow-ups and higher DPS potential.
BEST WEAPONS TO USE IN APEX LEGENDS SEASON 25 | APEX LEGENDS
Sniper Rifles
Sentinel
A small, but impactful buff.
Energized rechamber speed increased
– Firing feels quicker now when you've juiced it up with a shield battery. Expect more follow-up shots in shorter timeframes.
Not a huge update in terms of weapon count, but the changes are impactful if you're someone who actually pays attention to gun behavior (aka not just grabbing R-99 and winging it). Most of these buffs and nerfs are about smoothing things out and keeping guns viable without being broken.
Also worth noting: devs have been rolling out small patches across Season 25 so far, so don't be surprised if more tweaks land before Split 3. Till then, adjust your loadouts, experiment a little, and maybe give Bocek or Hemlok another shot.
