The Apex Legends weapon tier list for November 2021 is going to be different from last month’s tier list because there are a significant amount of weapon reworks coming to Season 11.
The Peacekeeper and the Triple take both received buffs and the Eva-8, Longbow and L-Star all received nerfs.
In addition to these weapon changes the Triple Take is being returned to ground loot and the G7 Scout is taking its place. Finally, a new weapon, the C.A.R. SMG, is expected to shake up the weapon meta in Season 11. The C.A.R SMG is capable of using both light and heavy ammo as well as both versions of extended mags.

Remember that weapons are in no particular order within their given tiers and Care Package weapons will not be ranked.
S Tier Weapons: *Chef’s Kiss*
S tier weapons are the Flatline, R-301, Wingman and R-99. The Flatline’s power and ability to perform well in both short and medium-long ranges earn it the title of the best assault rifle in the game. The R-301 is the better choice for players who find the Flatline’s recoil is too difficult to control. The Wingman does impressive damage but requires incredible aim to be used effectively. The R-99’s rate of fire gives it one of the highest DPS statistics in the game.
A Tier Weapons: Great Weapons
A tier weapons include the Prowler, Peacekeeper, Eva-8, Volt SMG, C.A.R SMG and Devotion. The Prowler’s hip-fire accuracy is almost as consistent as its ADS accuracy. The Peacekeeper and Eva-8 are both good shotguns after some recent changes. Choose the Peacekeeper if you prefer higher damage per shot and choose the Eva-8 if you prefer a higher fire rate. The Volt SMG has the best range of any SMG currently in Apex Legends. The newest weapon coming to Apex Legends is also set up to be one of the most versatile in the game. The Devotion is a fantastic weapon, but really only performs its best if a turbocharger can be found.

B Tier Weapons: Good Weapons
In B tier we have the Longbow, Mastiff, Rampage, Sentinel, L-Star and Triple Take. The Longbow is the most consistent sniper in Apex and arguably the easiest to use. The Mastiff is a decent shotgun, but struggles to outperform the two shotguns in A tier. The Rampage does impressively high damage for a gun that is so easy to control. The Sentinel’s charging capability turns it into an intimidating weapon to peek against. The L-Star has been nerfed decently well, but it is still a force to be reckoned with. The Triple Take is already a good marksman rifle, but its bullet spread makes it surprisingly effective as a hip-fire weapon close up.
C Tier Weapons: Still Capable of Winning
There are five weapons in C tier: the Havoc, 30-30 Repeater, Bocek Bow, Charge Rifle and the Hemlock. The Havoc isn’t a bad weapon, but it requires the turbocharger attachment to be used to the fullest at which point players would usually be better off looking for a Devotion. The 30-30 Repeater feels almost like a dollar store version of the Wingman with a charging mechanic slapped onto it. The Bocek Bow’s primary issue is finding enough arrows to last through the entire game. The Charge Rifle has the best range of any gun in the game, but is useless up close. The Hemlock burst fire can make it difficult to track targets consistently.
D Tier Weapons: Consistently Outclassed
The D tier weapons are the Re-45, the P2020 and the Mozambique. The Re-45 struggles to fight at anything longer than short range. The P2020 is generally considered the worst gun in the game. The Mozambique should be dropped in favor of any other shotgun players find.
