Here we’ll talk about all the best Ash skins that Respawn released in Apex Legends so far in 2023.
The developer behind the famous Titanfall franchise made a surprise entry into the battle royale genre with the launch of Apex Legends. Despite the unannounced release, players from all across the world were interested in this game. The game quickly gained a following among a wide range of players eager to try something new.
As players entered the game, the character system, movement, precise gunplay, and fast-paced gameplay instantly captured their attention. As a result, the player count of Apex Legends kept climbing.
Upon its release, Respawn introduced a few legends with distinct abilities and roles, making Apex Legends more unique than other battle royale games on the market. The characters in Apex Legends are divided into five categories: Assault, Recon, Support, Skirmisher, and Controller.
Asault Legends are specialized for being aggressive and getting important frags in a match. Their abilities help them get into a fight and sometimes escape from there too. They usually stay in front of the pack, leading the team to victory.
Ash is one such Legend in the game, released in Season 11 of Apex Legends. Quickly after her debut, this simulacrum became popular among the players because of her distinct abilities, especially her one-way portal, which became one of the greatest ways to engage and disengage from a fight.

Best Ash Skins in Apex Legends (A Complete Tier List)
Here we’ll rank all the Ash skins that Respawn has released so far in the game. We’ll put all the skins into three distinct tiers: S-Tier, A-Tier, and B-Tier.
The S-Tier Ash skins are the absolute best among the Legendary skins, followed closely by the A-Tier Legendary ones that only fall short by a little margin. However, the B-Tier skins look very ordinary compared to their S and A-Tier Legendary counterparts.
We have ranked these Ash skins based on their looks, rarity, and popularity. Like any other tier list, this one is also purely subjective, and any of the mentioned skins can be put elsewhere on the list. This list is intended primarily to assist newcomers and veteran players looking for some of the best-looking legendary Ash skins.
| Tier | Skins |
|---|---|
| Best(S-Tier) | Opulent Instigator, Biotechnic, Existential Threat |
| Good(A-Tier) | Inner Demon, Chain of Command, Synthetic Huntress, Opalescent Serpent |
| Average(B-Tier) | Mercenary Mystique, Solar Consequence, Fallen Angel, Denizen of the Deep |
Top 10 Best Ash Skins in Apex Legends
Here, we’ll aim to highlight some of Respawn’s best-looking Legendary Ash skins thus far in Season 16. Ash has quite a collection of nice Legendary cosmetics, so this top ten list will be a reference for players for easy picks. In addition, this list will be ranked from worst to best.
10. Denizen of The Deep
Denizen of the Deep is a Crab inspired Ash skin that looks quite cool and creepy at the same time. The barnacles throughout her body make it obvious that she has been underwater for a long time. Denizen of the Deep was released in Dark Depth Event in 2022.
9. Fallen Angel
Fallen Angel is a default Legendary skin for Ash that has a similar structure to the Chaotic Emerald Ash skin. However, the shiny dark blue color and golden and white accent on top make this skin a superior version of its counterpart.
Other alternatives and variants:
- Solar Consequence
- Chaotic Emerald
8. Synthetic Huntress
Synthetic Huntress is by far the scariest-looking skin for Ash. The skin has a golden skeleton mask with glowing yellow eyes, which is enough to scare off any enemy in the vicinity. Synthetic Huntress was released in the Warriors Collection Event in Season 12.
7. Mercenary Mystique
Mercenary Mystique is a Legendary default skin for Ash. Her battle scar metal body with lots of stains and rust gives this skin a more rigid look. The eagle on the hood represents her passive, which detects her enemies all over the map.
Other alternatives and variants:
- Eagle-Eyed
6. Opalescent Serpent
palescent Serpent Ash skin was created by Respawn using a different approach. The color combination of white and pink feels lovely on the skin. This skin also has a decent appearance thanks to the addition of a green accent and snake-like features.
5. Chain of Command
At first look, the Chain of Command seems like a skin that is inspired by a DC supervillain named Deathstroke. Deathstroke is one of the ruthless and deadliest assassins in the DC universe who carries a sword and is similar to Ash. But Respawn’s version of this character is a fearless assassin carrying a katana to tear up dimensions. Chain of Command was released with the Ash Launch Bundle in Season 11.
4. Inner Demon
Inner Demon Ash skin was featured in the Fight or Fright 2022Â Collection Event. Respawn gave Ash a pretty scary look on the skin to go with the theme. The black and red color combination adds more to the scariness of the skin.
3. Existential Threat
If you look closely, the Muto from Godzilla may have served as an inspiration for the Existential Threat skin. It also makes sense because such creatures were the focus of the Awakening Collection Event, from which the skin was taken. In any case, the skin looks really cool because of its unique color and design choice.
2. Biotechnic
One of the most recent Ash skins in the game is Biotechnic. It was included in the Year 4 Anniversary Event along with two other skins for Octane and Horizon that shared a similar design. This skin has a lovely touch because of the combination of the bright green color and the skin’s dark tint. Needless to say, the skin’s mask is unlike anything we have ever seen before.
1. Opulent Instigator
Opulent Instigator is by far the best-looking Ash skin in the game. Moreover, it is the most recent Ash skin that was part of the Regal Wrath Sale. Ash has an extremely elegant appearance thanks to his skin being black and golden in color with a red accent. Respawn, however, preserved the spooky appearance as well. To do this, they skillfully constructed Ash’s mask and gave her a pair of bright red eyes.
Will past event-related Ash Skins Ever return?
The event and recolor skins may ultimately make their way to the store, so skins like Synthetic Huntress and Denizen of the Deep may still be available in the future.
Respawn has announced that battle pass skins from Season 11 and onwards may be available in an event-specific skin package in the future, So any battle pass skins for Ash might come into the store in the future.
Upcoming Ash Skins
As of writing, there has been no new development regarding any new Ash skins in the game. We’ll definitely highlight more Ash skins as soon as they get announced.
