These loadouts are the most successful and meta-essential combinations in the game. That being said, armor, health types, and characters have been excluded. Players should try to find the most protective armor and prioritize Medkits and Shield Batteries over less powerful health items.
There is no strategy involved in wearing Grey over Purple armor, or carrying Shield Cells instead of Batteries. It doesn’t matter if you’re Shroud, Seagull, or God at the Golden Gates, you still need that Shield Battery. As for characters, some are better than others in certain situations, but Apex boils down to teamwork, accuracy, and seamless adaptability.
