Apex Legends Player Finds Unique Exploit With the Havoc Energy Rifle
By Max Mallow
An Apex Legends player found an exploit involving the Havoc energy assault rifle and posted the findings to Reddit.
The Havoc assault rifle features a charging feature and two Hop-Ups: the Turbocharger and Selectfire Receiver. The Turbocharger acts as implied removing the spin-up time for the rifle. As most would think the Turbocharger is the better of the two, this new Apex Legends exploit shows the Selectfire Receiver might be just as useful.

The video shows a player using the Havoc rifle in the training ground with the Selectfire Receiver Hop-Up attached.
Surprisingly, the Selectfire Receiver actually allows players to skip the spin-up time for both fire modes. The Reddit user displayed both firing modes to show how the gun performs.
It's unknown if this finding is an actual exploit or bug for the Havoc. The Reddit comments seemed to be unsure as well with people defending both sides of the discussion. An Apex Legends Reddit mod forwarded the findings to the development team at Respawn Entertainment.
