The Havoc is definitely a high-powered weapon, but is surprisingly easy to control in terms of recoil. However, short to mid-range distances are recommended while in full-auto fire mode - creating a feel similar to the Devotion light machine gun. Hitscan Beam fire mode, on the other hand, is best suited for longer distances, creating a shooting experience similar to that of a sniper rifle like the Scout, or even a fresh take on the classic railgun from the _ Quake _ franch


One major addition has already made its way to King’s Canyon: a new gun, fittingly named "Havoc." The versatile weapon is a welcome addition to the battlefield for whichever character you favor, but certainly has its own quirks that players will need to keep in mind while using it.

Why, many might wonder, would anyone pay the price of eight full-price AAA games on cosmetic items for a single free-to-play game? The answer isn't simple and could vary from player to player, but a solid start can be found in a number of gambling commissions' findings that loot boxes manipulate players' minds much in the same way games of chance do - in other words, their mechanics are almost identical to that of gambling. Combine that with Apex Legends ' steep drop-off in terms of Apex Packs earned through play rather than pay, and it makes at least some sense how one could find themselves in the hole over digital items with no real va

Even though players know a new character named Octane will release in week eight of Apex Legends (March 25- April 1), there's no news on when Prophet will drop.
