Flatline
Flatline | Heat Sink
Release date: Season 4
Rarity: Legendary
Cost: 2400 Apex Coins
The Flatline has the potential to accommodate various modifications. Optics, a stock, an enlarged magazine, with a maximum horn capacity of only thirty rounds, is enough to cope even with an opponent in full armor.
The blix.gg team has chosen the Heat Sink skin as the best skin for this weapon. Most Apex Legends players consider it the best weapon skin in the game. It has a great aesthetic.
As the player makes more kills with the weapon, it releases blue pulses from its vents. The intensity of these pulses increases as the number of kills increases. The skin is also famous for its improved aiming aids.

Peacekeeper
Peacekeeper | The Lonestar

The 30-30 Repeater is an excellent rifle for medium—to long-range shooting. With it, you can always impose a fight on the enemy.
The Wild West skin reduces the size of the weapon's massive body parts, providing players with a clean sighting reticle. Due to their overloaded metal sights, players have avoided using these small arms without optics.
However, there are significant improvements to the face with this skin.
L-Star
L-Star | Alien Invasion
Release date: February 4, 2019
Rarity: Legendary
Cost: 1800 Apex Coins/ 1200 Crafting Metals

Alternator
Alternator | LED Rez
Release date: February 4, 2019
Rarity: Legendary
Cost: 1800 Apex Coins/ 1200 Crafting Metals
