Knowing Ultimate Recharge time is crucial so that you know whether it is worth it to engage or not especially in the late game when the time between circles grows shorter.
Here is the list of specific ultimate recharge times for each legend in Apex Legends:
| Legend | Ultimate | Cooldown | Real-Time CD |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bangalore | Rolling Thunder | 270 Secs | 4:30 Mins |
| Bloodhound | Beast of the Hunt | 180 Secs | 3:00 Mins |
| Caustic | Nox Gas Grenade | 120 Secs | 2:00 Mins |
| Crypto | Weapon Drone EMP | 180 Secs | 3:00 Mins |
| Gibraltar | Defensive Bombardment | 180 Secs | 3:00 Mins |
| Lifeline | Care Package | 360 Secs | 6:00 Mins |
| Mirage | Vanishing Act | 150 Secs | 2:30 Mins |
| Octane | LaunchPad | 90 Secs | 1:30 Mins |
| Pathfinder | Zipline Gun | 120 Secs | 2:00 Mins |
| Wattson | Interception Pylon | 180 Secs* | 3:00 Mins* |
| Wraith | Dimensional Rift | 150 Secs | 2:30 Mins |
Wattson‘s ultimate cd can be lowered to 7 sec with the help of an ultimate accelerant since it instantly charges her ultimate. Ultimate accelerant also cuts 35% off the time it takes for legends ultimate to charge so, for Lifeline who has the longest charge time in the game it takes off 126 seconds from it’s charge time making it 4:50 mins.
Here is another table for the different ring times so that you can use those to calculate ultimate recharge rates depending on the ring.
| Round | Wait Period | Time To Close | Total Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3:00 Mins | 2:00 Mins | 5:00 Mins |
| 2 | 2:30 Mins | 2:00 Mins | 4:30 Mins |
| 3 | 2:15 Mins | 2:00 Mins | 4:15 Mins |
| 4 | 2:00 Mins | 2:00 Mins | 4:00 Mins |
| 5 | 1:30 Mins | 1:40 Mins | 3:10 Mins |
| 6 | 1:30 Mins | 1:40 Mins | 3:10 Mins |
