Recon

Seer

Ambush Artist

Seer is a Recon Legend. He was introduced in Season 10 and is locked from the base game. He can be unlocked using digital currency: either 12,000 Legend Tokens or 750 Apex Coins.

A Legend whose abilities are useful for tracking enemies in battle, Seer’s tactical, Focus of Attention reveals, slows, and silences his enemies. His passive, Heart Seeker can be used to determine the locations of nearby enemies. His ultimate Exhibit reveals enemies using their weapons or running within its radius.
