Apex Legends Season 11: All weapon buffs and nerfs

Apex Legends Season 11 has arrived, debuting Ash as the latest Legend to make it into the Arena.

Season 11, also known as Escape, brings the usual array of content into Respawn's battle royale, with a new map, Storm Point as an added bonus.

As always, fans are expecting the weapon meta to change drastically, as Respawn Entertainment has added a new gun into the game -- the C.A.R. SMG.

Without further ado, let's take a look at all the weapon buffs and nerfs for Season 11 of Apex Legends.
