Recommended Custom Perks
We currently recommend the following four perks to be competitive in Season 4 meta:
- Overkill: Given the strength of LMGs (like the Sakin and RPK), which are typically optimized for long-range, you’ll still want to rock a close-range primary on swap, like the Fennec or Lachmann Sub.
- Double Time: Increased movement speed will be critical given low TTK, especially for gaining an advantage in Resurgence
- Fast Hands: Again, speed is the name of the game. Swapping between long and close range, reloads — it doesn’t get any better
- High Alert: Huge for survivability, especially given low TTK
Resurgence Map Rotation
Resurgence maps will now rotate between Vondel and Ashika Island after a set time – similar to rotating maps in Apex Legends.
