How does health work in Apex Legends?

Heads up, the health system in Apex could use a buff IMO. Shields feel like they're made of paper sometimes and I spend half the game patching myself up. But hey, that's just the way the cookie crumbles in the Arena.

In Apex Legends, you got a health bar and a shield bar. Your health starts at 100 points. Shields, on the other hand, add extra protection on top of your health. You can get various shield levels (up to 4) which give you extra points – from 50 up to 100 extra points for the Evo Shields as you deal damage. If you’re hit, your shield takes damage first, then your health. You can recharge shields using shield cells and batteries, and heal health with syringes and med kits. Oh, and there's this cool thing called a Knockdown Shield when you're down but not out, giving you a chance to be revived by a teammate!
