Apex Legends boasts a huge arsenal of armour and restoration items. Each item features a different level of rarity – Common (Grey), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple) and Legendary (Gold). The higher the rarity level, the better the item.
Armour plays a vital role in Apex Legends. Each character in the game possesses base health of 100 HP. Each piece of armour is instrumental in increasing a character's ability to reduce damage taken. While body armour doesn't increase a player's HP, each additional bar of armour adds 25 HP to your character's maximum health. The backpack doesn't block damage or offer any shields, but it is an essential part of every arsenal as it adds extra slots to your inventory. Here's everything you need to know about armour equipment in Apex Legends.
| Item | Common | Rare | Epic | Legendary |
| Helmet | 30% reduced headshot damage | 40% reduced headshot damage | 50% reduced headshot damage | 50% reduced headshot damage. Reduces ability-recharge time. |

Damage Markers Damage Markers play a highly significant role in figuring out the health of a player and the type of armour being used. On shooting an enemy, the amount of damage taken is displayed in a specific colour. Red damage numbers indicate your opponent has no armour, white numbers indicate common armour, blue numbers indicate rare armour, purple numbers indicate epic armour, while yellow numbers indicate headshots. Players can use this information to determine whether or not they want to use an aggressive or cautious approach to facing an enemy.
Apex Legends also features a host of restorative items that can be used to restore health and shields.
