Apex Legends Lost Treasures update patch notes: Crypto event & buffs Respawn EntertainmentThe next update in Apex Legends Season 5 is bringing a swarm of new content, starting with the new Lost Treasures Collection Event, changes to almost every Legend, and the long-awaited Town Takeover for Crypto. As explained in the patch notes, these changes will give the battle royale a bit more longevity when it drops June 23 at 8 AM PST \/ 11 AM EST \/ 4 PM BST, as it will also implement a revised version of fan-favorite Limited Time Mode (LTM) Armed and Dangerous, with Evo armor only. The Respawn Entertainment team are also giving Mirage players the heirloom they\u2019ve been waiting for with a specially made trophy, perfect for the Arena\u2019s most ornate Legend. Legend balance updates Almost every Legend has been touched by the balancing team as the devs work to tweak some that have been problematic, and some that need a boost. As such, characters like Revenant are now going to be more disruptive to other Legend\u2019s abilities while Lifeline gets a helping hand to revive downed allies. Lifeline\u2019s tweaks are going to be a point of contention, since technically she\u2019s getting better at healing with D.O.C\u2019s new ability, but at the cost of her Fast Heal passive. Meanwhile, teams holed up in a building with Wattson\u2019s ultimate and electric fence will be in for a rude awakening now that Respawn are making her ability to fortify a position more easily countered. That\u2019s only a fraction of the Legend updates that are coming packaged in Lost Treasures Collection Event update, including a bevy of changes to Wraith\u2019s kit. Zipline changes and Quality of Life updates Players have been using Ziplines in Apex for a ton of creative movement techs in the game, though that\u2019s about to change. The devs are adding a new cooldown to re-grabbing Ziplines which will increase every time a person disconnects and reattaches to the line. Meanwhile, there are now friendly Caustic Trap pings that the community has been asking to implement for quite some time. Although not the color-changing update that some might have hoped for, this will certainly go a long way to differentiating the traps in the middle of a fight. There are myriad updates revolving around different aspects of the battle royale, so don\u2019t forget to get a rundown of the entire patch down below, courtesy of Respawn Entertainment. LOST TREASURE COLLECTION EVENT We\u2019re bringing a ton of exciting changes to the game along with the Lost Treasures Collection Event. In addition to the event, we\u2019ll be making a host of tweaks to various Legend abilities and weapons. Get all the intel here so you\u2019re fully prepared when you drop in. ARMED & DANGEROUS EVOLVED LTM The Armed & Dangerous Limited time mode has evolved. In this LTM, only Shotguns and Snipers are allowed. You\u2019ll also start with a Mozambique and Evo armor. All other armor has been removed from the loot pool. But that\u2019s not all. Respawn beacons will also be removed and all players will start with the Mobile Respawn Beacon in their inventory. MOBILE RESPAWN BEACONS Need to Respawn on the go? Use the new Mobile Respawn Beacons! In the Armed and Dangerous LTM, players will start the match with one in their inventory. Then from the inventory screen, deploy it anywhere on the map and save your fallen teammates. But beware, calling in a Respawn Beacon takes time, giving your enemies time to find you, take you out, and use that Beacon you just deployed. So find that safe spot before you call it in. CRYPTO TOWN TAKEOVER Crypto is taking over and providing some recon to Kings Canyon. Located at the south-east of the map (under Repulsor), lies Crypto\u2019s Map Room. Use his tech to get the location of all Legends on the map and check the screens scattered around the room to see how many enemy squads are nearby. HEIRLOOM \u2013 MIRAGE\u2019S TROPHY Isn\u2019t that a handsome guy! Yes, it\u2019s true, your man Mirage is getting his Heirloom! The gorgeous statue is one of a kind (sort of) and will ensure you look good in the arena. LEGEND UPDATES Lifeline Passive Combat Revive now replaces Combat Medic. Deploy D.O.C to revive teammates. D.O.C. will deploy a shield and revive Lifeline\u2019s teammate, leaving Lifeline free to defend or revive someone else. – This fully replaces Lifeline\u2019s old passive, including Fast Heal – – – Combat Revive now replaces Combat Medic. – Tactical Lifeline\u2019s Tactical cooldown is now 45 seconds (was 60 seconds). – – Ultimate Lifeline\u2019s Care Package now contains more items Care Package will contain 3x more small healing items, when it decides to spawn small healing items – Care Package will contain 2x more attachments, when it decides to spawn attachments – – – Lifeline\u2019s Care Package now contains more items – Octane Tactical Upon activation, Stim will remove movement impairing effects. – Stim sprinting speed is increased by 10% – – Ultimate Players can now double jump in mid-air after using Octane\u2019s Launch Pad – Players can change direction easily from the double jump. – – Revenant Tactical Will now cancel: Pathfinder mid-grapple – Wraith mid-Phase Walk attempt (before Phase Walk activates) – – Will now prevent: Mirage cloaked revive – Mirage decoy control activation – Lifeline combat revive – – – Will now cancel: – Ultimate Range removed on Death Totem – – Crypto Tactical Deploying Hack (Crypto\u2019s Drone) now takes 1.5 seconds (from 2.5 seconds) – – Ultimate EMP will now disable Wattson\u2019s Pylons. – – Loba Tactical Burglar\u2019s Best Friend will no longer be intercepted by Watton\u2019s Interception Pylon. – – Ultimate Black Market Boutique (ultimate) will now only pick up 1 stack of ammo (rather than 1 stack + the amount that was required to fill whatever partial stack you had in your inventory). – Ultimate Accelerants now give 20% ult charge (up from 17.5%). – – Mirage Tactical You can now hold the tactical button, and release to auto-control decoys – Decoys will now say lines when shot – – Passive When cloaked, Mirage\u2019s holo emitters will be visible to players that are less than 5 meters away – – Skydive Will now create decoys for the entire squad when skydiving when still diving with your squad. – – Gibraltar Fast Heal granted inside the Dome Shield, slowed down: 25% faster -> 15% faster – Caustic Enemies can cancel Caustic\u2019s barrel by shooting it before it is fully inflated. – Wattson The intent of these changes is to create openings where enemies can breach Wattson positions. It is still possible for Wattson players to hold a position with a trophy indefinitely, but that should come at the cost of using Ultimate Accelerants. Wattson\u2019s Pylons now last for 90 seconds – Wattson can now have up to 3 pylons out at a time – Wattson can stack 2 Ultimate accelerants per inventory slot – Wraith Increasing Wraith\u2019s tactical cooldown has proven to be ineffective at curbing her exceedingly high win rate and kill rate. These changes are meant to disincentivize Wraith players from using Phase Walk as a \u201cget out of jail free\u201d card, and move it into more of a repositioning and scouting ability. Phase Walk Phase Walk now takes 1.25 seconds to enable (was 0.4 seconds). During this time, Wraith will receive a 20% move slow This does not affect Phase Walk while placing a Phase Portal – – While in Phase Walk, Wraith now gets a 30% move speed boost – While in Phase Walk, Wraith can now see other players while in the Void. – Phase Walk now lasts 4 seconds (from 3 seconds) – Phase walk cooldown is now down to 25 (from 35 seconds) – – Phase Walk now takes 1.25 seconds to enable (was 0.4 seconds).
