Apex Legends Ballistic: Class, Kit and Playstyle

1 min read

A weapons specialist added after launch, built around boosting his own guns and disrupting the enemy's. Here is what his class and kit do.

Apex Legends Ballistic joined the roster after launch, one of the Legends added as Respawn has kept expanding the game, and his identity is built entirely around guns rather than movement or information.

Class

Ballistic is an Assault Legend, the class centred on gunfights rather than utility.

What the kit does

His kit revolves around weapons directly — enhancing the guns his own squad is carrying while disrupting the ones the enemy team relies on.
That split is what separates him from other Assault Legends: rather than adding a grenade or a smoke round to a fight, he changes how the guns already in play perform.

Where he is strong

Fights where gunplay decides the outcome rather than positioning or utility — open engagements where enhanced weapons and disrupted enemy guns both matter more than cover.

Where he is weaker

Anything that rewards movement or information over raw gunfighting, since his kit offers neither.

Kits get reworked

Bloodhound's overhaul in Season 30: Marked, August 2026, is the most recent proof that no kit stays fixed forever. Confirm specifics against the in-game tooltip rather than any single guide.
