Hey!

Happy Season 1 Day! The update is scheduled to go live at 10:00am PST on all platforms that you will need to download. Patch notes are below. I do by best to account for everything but there may be cases where I miss something. It's not intentional to omit anything from the patch notes. Enjoy!

But another comment says

There aren't hidden new legendaries. The legendary crate drops a Guaranteed Legendary from the existing pool of content.

Unless I am missing something here?

It means that Legendaries in general = new geo/theme compared to base skin. Legendary Apex Pack drops 1+ legendaries from the common item pool (aka the same pool of standard Apex Packs).

A small comparison

Do you really think they would go all nuts and burn money away to make a bazillion content not even knowing how's the playerbase reception to battle passes? Or do you guys really do believe the content we got is the perfect and idealized version of a battle pass Respawn wanted to launch?

This right here is business, brother. The S1 BP is not perfect, but it's an effort and it shows. We already got a new legend, after a community feedback reworks on the big hitboxes, possible reworks on map parts, battle pass and minor fixes. All in a matter of weeks from launch.

The best we can do is show our love to Apex, and I'm sure Respawn is going to love us back. They already gave us an awesome game for absolutely free, even if as a symbolic purchase through some cos...

We have very high detail character and weapon models. There are long lead times to produce legendary content (new geo). It's definitely not easy or fast.

It is dope but the problem is that by the end of the match you'll normally have dropped the havoc for something better.

Gotta live that Turbo charger life baby

Only issue I have is that the legendary skins are base skin recolors and not new legendaries.

The legendary havoc IS a full legendary and then some. It's completely new geo/theme AND it is the first ever 3 stage evolving skin that has reactive VFX on kills.

Additionally, the Legendary Apex Pack will drop at least 1 legendary that is completely new geo/theme.

The level 100 Havoc skin is the first ever 3-stage evolving Legendary weapon skin.

As you get more kills (within the match), its eyes glow and its nostrils emit smoke, etc.

This was really fun to work on. It's the first reactive weapon skin that the weapons team has created at Respawn (unless you count the Pro Screen from R2)

Recommend ironsight for flexing during late game kill feeds, the smoke blasting and eyes glowing in ADS looks amazing.

Why is reward 18 and 68 both a lifeline season 1 kill badge?

23 and 78 are both Bangalore.

13 and 58 are Octane?

Are these placeholders?

Edit 3PM EST: Respawn Dev "Leeeeeee-RSPN" Replied: ·

This looks like an error when the website was built. We're investigating now. But she won't be getting the same rewards twice :)

Edit 2 4pm EST: Respawn Dev "Garza_RSPN" Replied again:

  1. Mirage Banner Frame
  2. Mirage S1 Wins [Thirleck Edit: Maybe he means Kills?] Tracker
  3. Wraith Banner Frame
  4. Octane S1 Kills Tracker
  5. Lifeline S1 Kills tracker
  6. Bangalore S1 Kills

This still doesn't explain where Gibraltar's Tracker is. (Edit 3.5): It's been included to Reward 48... not sure what was there before.

Edit 3 5pm EST:

18 is a Banner Frame Currently....

To help out a bit

13 - Mirage Banner Frame

18 - Mirage S1 Wins Tracker

23 - Wraith Banner Frame

58 - Octane S1 Kills Tracker

68 - Lifeline S1 Kills tracker

78 - Bangalore S1 Kills

Was that the L-Star in the trailer?

It was too fast to be sure. But I think it was the Havoc skin that is the final reward for the BP.

Showin' that sweet VFX green nostril flare!

THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT GAME AND THE BATTLEPASS. a few questions:

  1. Do levels reset and if so, do Apex packs start again at the old pacing?

  2. Patch notes?

  3. Any new skins or content added outside the battle pass besides octane?

  4. Was that the L-Star in the trailer?

  1. No, this is a separate track
  2. Tomorrow
  3. Not at this time
  4. It's the level 100 Havoc with it's reactive VFX

Player level and Battle Pass level are completely independent and don't impact each other. Player Level ain't goin' anywhere :)

What are the "XP" tokens? Are rewards going to be added past level 100 on the base XP track because if XP tokens give XP I don't see them being very useful if I'm already 100?

These will boost your BP earn rate when playing with friends - and they stack as you get more of them

Awesome! So if you buy the battle pass, sometimes you'll get 2 items per level up, 1 for the free version and 1 for the paid version?

Yep

Does this mean we won’t be able to earn Apex packs if we’ve already earned them all on our way to level 100 player level?

You'll be able to earn 5 more via the battle pass free track. And if you purchase the premium battle pass you can get another 5 standard, 1 epic and 1 legendary.

Battle Pass Season 1 Philosophy

Post

Hey All,

Leeeeeee-RSPN here with a quick post on Battle Pass Season 1 philosophies – where we are with the first iteration of Battle Pass and where we might go in the future.

Battle Pass Season 1 Philosophy

TL;DR Season 1 is about keeping it focused and allowing players to earn a lot of rewards at a great value (you even get the cost of the base Battle Pass back if you reach level 97).  We’ll begin adding more and more innovations each season, as we evolve the Battle Pass.

Our first Battle Pass is all about letting you continue to learn and experiment with the core Apex Legends experience while earning awesome loot at the same time. You’ll notice the first version isn’t built around a complex quest system where you need to do a 720 backflip off of Watchtower Artemis and get two Wingman headshots before hitting the ground. While we think there’s really cool design space in quests and challenges for future Battle Passes, we w...
