In Apex Legends, getting good loot is massively important to where a team places during a match of the battle royale game. Powerful weapons, armor, and medkits can all spell the difference between winning a match or coming in last.

Unlike other battle royale games such as Fortnite, where getting the best loot often depends on finding randomly spawning chests, Apex Legends' best loot can be found in specific sections of the game's map. When players enter a new region on the Apex Legends map, a notification on the Heads-Up Display (HUD) will tell players the name of the area and the tier of the loot that can be found there.

Apex Legends fan Twitter TheApexBR has collected this information and has highlighted the areas for the best loot on the map. For high-tier loot, players should focus on the outer areas of the game's map, including locations like the Thunderdome, the Water Treatment center, and the Swamps. As players go toward the middle of the map, they will pick up mid-tier loot from areas like the Cascades, the Wetlands, and the Bridges. Low-tier loot can be found at the Hydro Dam and Market areas.

These are the best loot locations in Apex Legends right now, but things could change in the future. Developer Respawn Entertainment sees the new battle royale game as a 10-year game, and plenty of updates could be released in that time. That could include big changes to loot locations (and the loot available there) as the studio aims to offer more variety to players.

Although it's not highlighted on the map, Apex Legends players can also land on a supply ship that flies around the map. Aim for it after jumping out of the dropship to get good loot, but be warned–the competition for this loot is always fierce. Players will need to be quick on the trigger or they risk being outplayed by opponents who are also trying to make a dash for great gear.

As important as loot is, that's not the only determining factor in whether a team wins or loses. Picking the right character (there are eight playable heroes in total) is just as important, as each has their own set of skills and these will complement each other differently. Master these skills and grab the most powerful and useful loot to get ahead in Apex Legends.

Apex Legends is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
