Apex Legends\u2019 Season 14 patch introduced plenty of buffs and nerfs for both Legends and weapons. One of the more controversial changes came through a nerf to the Kraber .50 Cal Care Package-exclusive sniper rifle. Now, some Apex Legends players are debating whether the nerf has made the Kraber \u201cuseless\u201d or if it was a necessary change. Apex Legends players debate Season 14 Kraber nerf The discussion spawned from a post on the Apex Legends subreddit, where user GhostxFilter made a post titled which called the Kraber nerf a \u201cmistake.\u201d They argued that before the Season 14 nerf, the Kraber was balanced thanks to its low spawn rate, slower bullet drop and speed, and the skill required to perform well with the weapon. They go on to call Season 14\u2019s Kraber \u201cuseless\u201d owing to its overall lower damage output. For those who may not know, the Kraber\u2019s overall damage was reduced from 145 to 140, while the headshot multiplier was changed from 3x to 2x. This makes it impossible for players to instantly down opponents with a Kraber headshot at full health. While plenty of players agreed with GhostxFilter\u2019s initial post, many others pushed back on calling the Kraber \u201cuseless\u201d now. \u201c\u2026It still does 140 which is more than enough to break shields instantly and do a decent bit of flesh damage. Also, getting one tapped by a Kraber doesn\u2019t mean the user is skilled in any way, in fact, it\u2019s the complete opposite,\u201d said Endar_Spire. Others also took issue with the fact that the Kraber was the only weapon in Apex Legends that provided a one-shot kill. \u201cIn my opinion, it is a well-balanced care package weapon now. No other weapon will give you a one-shot kill, and neither should the Kraber,\u201d said spooch001. Though both sides of the discussion make valid arguments, for now, it doesn\u2019t seem as though Respawn has any intention of boosting the Kraber\u2019s damage back to where it was before Season 14.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players call the Kraber\u201duseless\u201d after Season 14 nerf Respawn EntertainmentWith the Kraber nerfed in Apex Legends Season 14, some players think the latest change has made the gun \u201cuseless\u201d as a care package weapon.
