Prowler changes in Apex Legends

The Prowler PDW has less delay between bursts and better recoil, so it fires faster and is easier to keep on target.

• Burst fire delay reduced
• Recoil improvements

The Prowler PDW has a shorter delay between bursts and deals more damage per bullet in Selectfire.

• Decreased burst delay
• Damage increased to 17 while using Selectfire (was 16)

In burst mode, the Prowler PDW now keeps firing bursts while you hold the trigger, with a slightly longer delay between bursts.

• While in burst fire mode, holding down the trigger now releases subsequent bursts
• Slightly increased burst delay

The Prowler has less horizontal recoil in burst fire and full-auto, and a shorter delay between bursts.

• Improved horizontal recoil in burst fire and full-auto
• Reduced burst fire delay

The Prowler deals more damage per bullet.

• Damage 15 → 16
• Headshot damage: 19

TipHeadshots on the Prowler pay barely more than body shots, so hold the reticle on the chest and keep every round on target instead of climbing for the head.

The floor Prowler is back to its non-Care Package version, with slightly less damage, no Select Fire hop-up and longer burst and spread delays.

Reverted to non-Care Package version: Damage 16 → 15

• Reverted to non-Care Package version
• Damage 16 → 15
• Select Fire Hop-Up removed
• Burst delay 0.24 → 0.28
• Spread delay 0.15 → 0.28

TipThe Prowler's burst window is now tighter with longer delays; it's less reliable as a close-range finisher without the full-auto option.

The Prowler Burst PDW waits longer between bursts, so it fires more slowly overall.

Time Between Burst increased from 0.2 to .24

The Prowler kicks up slightly less in burst mode but moves more side to side in auto mode.

• Slightly Reduce vertical recoil in burst mode
• Increase horizontal recoil in Auto Mode

The Prowler deals more damage with each shot.

Damage per shot 14 → 15
