Respawn Entertainment has pushed out  Apex Legends update 1.000.099 on consoles and PC. This patch resolves the “encryption protocol violation” error that players are seeing, alongside other issues such as prestige skin offers greyed out after previewing an offer, and more.

The patch notes below also contain yesterday’s changes from a server-side patch.

Apex Legends New Update for May 14 Fixes “View Placement” Issues and More

Apex Legends Patch 1.000.099 Here’s what got fixed today per Respawn:

  • A crash occuring after selecting “View Placement” after playing your ranked placement matches
  • The Gun-Shield Generator hop-up not functioning on the Hemlok
  • The “Encryption protocol violation” error some players saw when loading the title screen
  • Prestige Skins Offers becoming greyed out after previewing an offer owned
  • Conduit and Ballistic thematic packs having the normal Apex Pack art

Here are the fixes for the server-side patch released yesterday on all platforms:

  • A fix for some crashes players were experiencing, especially on Storm Point

Changes to the Bocek and Havoc, including:

Bocek Compound Bow:

  • Max charge damage increased to 65 (was 55)
  • Explosive arrow on hit damage increased to 55 (was 40)
  •  Increased rate of fire

Havoc:

  • Increased damage to 20 (was 19)
  • Improved recoil

Both the Bocek and Havoc haven’t really shined since leaving the Care Package, so we’re making these adjustments to address overall performance.

That’s about it. Of course, there are other issues yet to be resolved, which we assume will be fixed in a much bigger patch when a new seasonal content drop makes its way out.
