Apex Legends has a massive arsenal of weapons for players to choose from that all thrive in different situations. Whenever any of these guns become too strong or takeover the meta, Respawn has to step in and add some balance changes. Despite this, since the release of Apex, there\u2019s been one AR that\u2019s always been reliable, easy to use, and immensely powerful. We\u2019re of course talking about the R-301. Well, according to aceu, although he absolutely loves the weapon, the R-301 is \u201ctoo good\u201d and he\u2019s confused why the devs have never nerfed it. Aceu explains why R-301 is too strong in Apex Legends During a recent stream, one of aceu\u2019s viewers asked him what his go-to weapon is in Apex Legends and he revealed that he\u2019s a \u201c301 enjoyer\u201d. Despite loving the AR, aceu did reveal that he thinks the R-301 is \u201cbusted\u201d and \u201ctoo good\u201d compared to the other options available on the ground. With minimal recoil, high damage output, and deadly hip-fire accuracy, the R-301 has very few weaknesses, making it top-tier in nearly every situation. As a result, aceu is confused about how the weapon has been \u201chard meta\u201d for years, but the \u201cdevs still don\u2019t want to nerf it\u201d. As a suggestion to help balance the R-301 and ARs in general, aceu put forward the idea of heavily nerfing hip-fire. This would push players to use SMGs more for close-quarters gunfights, especially when they have a laser-equipped. However, this would be a major change to Apex and likely a nerf a lot of fans would not support. Either way, the R-301 is still destructive in Season 15, so seek it out in your matches if you struggle with recoil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aceu claims \u201cbusted\u201d R-301 needs nerf in Apex Legends Respawn Entertainment\/AceuPopular Apex Legends streamer Brandon \u2018aceu\u2019 Winn thinks the \u201cbusted\u201d R-301 is \u201ctoo good\u201d and deserves to be nerfed.
