Apex Legends’ excellent loot system makes it stand apart from other battle royales. Thanks to the rarity system, it’s easy to find out what attachments your weapon can use and which ones are upgrades over ones you already have have. There are a wide variety of weapon attachments in Apex, including optics, stocks, magazines, and more.

Hop-ups are a different type of attachment that alter a weapon’s performance in dramatic ways. They can increase a weapon’s headshot multiplier, change its fire pattern, or even increase damage to shielded or unshielded opponents. As you might expect, because of these strong effects, all hop-ups are epic or legendary rarity and are a little trickier to find during a battle royale match.

Here are all hop-ups in Apex, what they do for their respective guns, and which ones are available right now.
