Understanding HWID BAN system
Hello,
How does APEX HWID ban system works?
Apex does not HWID ban on the first offense but again its just a theory because its different for everyone and what components EAC detects for example does it also grab IP addresses as well ?
I know CPU, GPU, MOBO, RAM etc gets flagged by EAC but what about keyboards, mouse and other peripheral?
Everyone is welcome to share knowledge.

I got banned alot and only got HWID banned once just because snip3down got killed by a cheater squad then he spectated them and I killed all 3 of them with the LC Lite triggerbot.
I assume I got HWID banned there because hideouts or some other admin saw that, checked me and then banned me manually.
So that means when you get banned automatically by a detection of the hack you are using you only get banned for this account. But when some admin like Hideouts ban you manually then you will most likely get a HWID ban.
I got rid of my HWID ban a few weeks ago by ordering new PC parts.
I changed my ssd, my mainboard, my CPU and my ram so the HWID ban was gone somehow. Which means that the traces are either on your HDD or SSD or on your mainboard including your CPU.

Monitors can be banned by EA/Apex - I think it is random based on the user and how many times they have been banned.

Does spoofer really help to bypass EAC HWID ban ?
I know that spoofer changes the serial ID of all hardwares but what about traces ?

Its always recommended to revo full uninstall a game when you get banned.
Yes a good spoofer will always work against eac and BE.
But spoofers are another detection vector

Revo uninstaller is unnecessary.
Uninstalling the game is unnecessary.
Reinstalling windows is unnecessary.
Just to put an end to all rumors, EAC leaves no traces.

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but this would seem like the perfect place to ask this question. When you are HWID banned in Apex, does the ban only apply while when playing Apex or are all EA games affected? For example, if you are HWID banned in Apex, will a new account created for Titanfall also be banned?
