The Kraber sniper rifle has got a major boost. The damage has been increased from 125 to 145 but the rarity has also increased slightly. The Kraber got other improvements such as increased headshot and leg damage scale.
The Triple Take has also got a boost when paired with the Precision Choke attachment. The choke time has been reduced from 1.5 seconds to 1.1. If you use this combination then you are in luck. Other than that, all energy weapons have got a small buff as the max stack has been increased from 60 to 80. Now it is similar to light and heavy ammo.
Shotguns have been nerfed in the new Apex Legends Season 2 update. The max stack has been reduced from 64 to 16. You will need to have multiple stacks on you to play with a shotgun.

Watson, the new character has also been added to the game. A new stats page has been added and it shows player different stats and achievements.
Respawn has confirmed that this is only the beginning and new features will be added with the passage of time. Here is what the dev had to say in this regard:
We’re sure you all will have feedback on other stats you’d like to see here. What we’re shipping with Season 2 is just the start and we’re planning to build on it. We won’t promise anything but definitely let us know what other stats you want shown after you’ve played around with it.
There are still no Titans in the game but the upcoming Battle Pass should be interesting.
