Apex - EAC and Serverside ban evasion

Practical Apex EAC and server-side ban evasion guidance.

Permanent HWID spoofing#

When every identifier survives a cold boot, come back here and finish the game-specific account, cleanup and server-tracking steps.

With how frequently EAC expands and improves their hardware identification system it has gotten significantly harder for the average user to keep track of what works and what does not when it comes to staying a step ahead of the hardware identification tracking game. Here comes a complete summary of how you evade EAC HWID bans.

EAC Hardware bans#

Updated 2026-04-14

EAC bans a lot of identifiers across your host system, the main ones being SSD serials and volume ID:s, that does not mean that does not mean that you can simply change your SSD to a brand new one and hope that it will be enough. You need to ensure everything in this guide is spoofed correctly to safely play again.

The confirmed identifiers are currently:
SSD Serials and Volume ID:s
Host Network card MAC addresses including passive Wi-Fi cards and Bluetooth adapters.
All non "Default Value" motherboard serials, most obvious one being UUID

Complete router ARP table

Identifiers that will cause definite flags:
Monitor EDID / Serial number

SSD and volume Spoofing#

The most reliable way to spoof all SSD identifiers across both AMD and Intel is by purchasing a priventive spoofable SSD (priventive.de), that being said purchasing / owning a SSD using a map 1202 memory controller has also been proven to work, these SSDs can be easily permanently spoofed using online tools / manufacturer tools.

Another way to currently bypass the SSD identifiers if and only if you have a AMD CPU is by using Raid0, which to our knowledge works on the vast majority of recommended motherboards. This works even if you only have 1 SSD in your system. For guidelines and help with doing this, please refer to your motherboard manufacturers manuals. If you want to do this on Intel you're simply out of luck, this would require a dedicated Raid card.

Motherboard Spoofing#

This is another topic that already has a vast amount of online resources, majority of motherboards can be spoofed using public tools (AMIDEWIN), besides certain OEM motherboards and all ASUS motherboards which require dumping your bios rom and flashing the modified version. This comes with a certain risk of bricking your motherboard if done incorrectly, but there are so many resources out there already that this is likely the easiest identifier to spoof.

Consult with your spoofer provider if you have an ASUS motherboard as some providers are able to spoof it and some do not.

Network card spoofing#

Majority of network cards from Intel, Realtek and Mellanox allow modifying MAC through manufacturer provided tools that have been shared across various forums and websites. There is quite a few things to keep in mind when it comes to this, always make sure to backup a dump of your network card before doing any changes to avoid bricking it, there is also a set amount of times that you can actually spoof the MAC (around 20 ish times) until the flash is full and the tool no longer works.

The majority of permanent spoofer providers can spoof MAC for you as long as you have one of these 3 providers. Your best bet is to get an external USB network card that you can easily swap once the flash is full.

Router ARP spoofing#

To spoof your ARP table on your router you need a router that has OpenWRT firmware flashed onto it, openwrt has a list of the routers they support on their website. Certain routers already come flashed with OpenWRT such as routers from GL.iNet. You can find these on Amazon for anywhere from 20-50$. This is something to easily overlook and expect to be fine without, but that is truly not the case.

Inside the OpenWRT web-ui you can easily modify the MAC of each interface, we recommend just changing the last two digits in the MAC and be careful to not modify the vendor specific identifiers unless you know what you're doing. It's not the end of the world but stupid to do nonetheless.

Monitor / EDID Spoofing#

This is yet another thing that is easy to overlook but is crucial for spoofing for EAC protected games. A lot of fusers allow for flashing custom EDID (refer to your fusers manual), if your fuser doesn't allow for custom EDID you're not totally out of luck, this can be easily bypassed by using a capture card like the Elgato HD60 X that allow for custom EDID inside of their software. To dump your current EDID you can use MonitorAssetManager to save your current monitors EDID as a BIN. You can modify this using HxD or other similar tools.


If you have a multi monitor setup you will need to get yourself a DrHDMI as it's not just one monitors EDID that gets banned it's all of them, these can be found on Amazon.

Apex Serverside bans#

Updated 2026-04-14

Gameplay#

Be careful with how you play, the easiest way to get banned on a Apex is getting banned for their serverside aimbot detection. It is very important to leave Humanization on, since with our Humanization even while using low smooths you will rarely or never be banned. BUT if you decide to not use humanization make sure you play on very high smoothing to make sure you dont flag the serverside detection.

Features#

We currently don't have any features in the software that will lead to a direct ban, but keep in mind that memory write function do carry a certain risk, but as of now there has been no ban reports for any of the features or any ban reports at all. Iam writing this early in to the release of the software so things may vary, so make sure to always keep an eye on the news and the update channel.
