Legend

Legends are playable characters in Apex Legends. Each legend is a unique character with their own backstory, abilities, and playstyle. Some legends need to be unlocked by using Legend Tokens or Apex Coins.

The legends are divided by their classes; Offensive, Defensive, Support, and Recon.

Common Legend Abilities[edit | edit source]

Each legend is defined by a unique tactical ability, passive ability, and ultimate ability. However, every legend has many of the same capabilities:

Legends can sprint, jump, crouch, crouch walk, slide, and climb walls up to [?] meters tall.
Using their waist-mounted jetpacks, legends can skydive from high altitudes and boost themselves along zip lines.
Legends can equip two weapons of any type, as well as one of each kind of gear.
Legends have 10 slots in their inventory that they can use to carry ammo, consumables, grenades, or spare attachments. Equipping Backpacks adds more slots.
Legends can melee attack at any time. It has a short windup, but deals 30 damage and knocks enemies back a bit.
When downed, legends can still crawl slowly and defend themselves with a Knockdown Shield if they have one. Squadmates that are still up can revive them.
If killed while downed, legends drop a death box which contains all of the items they had, as well as a banner card that squadmates can use at a Respawn Beacon to bring them back.
Legends can perform finishers on downed enemies, refueling their Body Shield and finishing off the target.
