The system shares Apex bundles and items with friends.

Revision information
The fifteenth season of “Lunar Eclipse” has once again changed the entry requirements for season points. Players must now reach level 20 to participate in the scoring battle, which will increase the cost of entry time for plug-in players.
In terms of circle reduction, the time before circle 1 reduction has been increased from 60 seconds to 90 seconds, which is mostly good news for gamers. At the same time, canceling the initial flag-picking animation when acquiring the second flag reduces the time it takes to pick up teammates’ flags from the death chest, the time of the card-picking animation, and the later action can be made faster.
Weapons balance has been adjusted according to past practice (too strong, weakened, too weak to be strengthened) with many numerical adjustments up and down; treasure chests are rotated, mastiff rifles return to the ground, RE-45 ammo and jammers enter the treasure chests.
It is worth mentioning that the damage of the “Turbocharger” accessory (Focus SMG, Habok) is reduced by 1 when equipped, ie the damage for canceling the heat gun time is reduced; in addition, vertebral ammunition, enhanced magazine, supply of kinetic energy, etc. Accessories have been removed from Floor Loot and Crafting Sets.
Overall, Apex Legends made many QoL changes in season 15 “Eclipse” to reflect past complaints from the gamer community, and it also shows that the arrival of “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II 2022” and “Battlefield” with the launch of “Special Attack 2” on the market for free, “Apex Heroes” is intended to better respond to the needs of players in the face of the competition.
However, for most gamers, all are still hoping to achieve more stable server connection quality and a plugin-free gaming environment.
