How to use Apex Legends trackers to track your stats

Apex Legends has the usual spread of cosmetics: character skins, gun skins, voice lines, and emblems. One of its unlockables is different. Trackers, aka stat trackers, are character-specific items you can get from loot boxes to show off your prowess with different Legends on your profile. With combat specialist Bangalore you might want to display your total damage dealt, while with medic Lifeline you could show off the amount of healing your recovery drone has pumped into your team.

Here's how you unlock and equip Apex Legends' trackers to show off your stats.

How do I unlock Apex Legends' trackers?

Trackers can drop as loot box items, but you can also craft them with Crafting Metals, one of Apex Legends' in-game currencies. Those metals are also loot box drops and can be used to craft other cosmetics, like character and gun skins. Tracker unlocks are unique to each character, so even if you get a drop for a basic stat like "Kills" for Bangalore, it won't be unlocked for anyone else.

Since the odds are slim you're going to get the specific tracker drop you want for the character you want, crafting is your better option. To craft trackers, go to the Legends tab, pick a Legend, and then click the Banners tab. Now look at the menu in the left column, which lists Frames, Poses, Badges, and Trackers. Click one of the Tracker headings to see the list of trackers you can unlock.

Simply click on one of the listed trackers and hit confirm to craft it.

The regular trackers cost 30 Crafting Metals to make. Each Legend also has three unique, Rare (blue) tier trackers, which cost 60 Crafting Metals to make.

What are Apex Legends' trackers?

For every Legend, there are 17 basic trackers available. These are the same for each character. They are: 

  • Kills
