What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? truToasty
Please provide your squad mates' gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name if possible.
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)? Catalyst
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)? N/A
Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. Broken Moon
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Using an Ability
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? I don't know
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? alot
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 11/4/22
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Minor impact to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Fighting a Revenant and I got hit by Rev Tactical (Silence Ability) and as Catalyst I was able to use my Passive and Barricade a door.
What should be happening instead? Revenant Tactical is supposed to suppress all abilities including Passives yet Catalyst is immune to this
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? First: Be Catalyst. Second: Get hit by Revenant Tactical (Silence) Third: Use Catalyst's Passive and Barricade a Door
Ok so when you get hit as Catalyst by Revenant Tactical (Silence) you can still use your passive (Barricade) as Catalyst.
As far as I know this is unintentional as Revenant Tactical is supposed to suppress all abilities including Passives.
This is my video of the bug in question.
Go to the timestamp 1:55 in the video to see the bug in action.
There are other strange bugs in the video as well however, I am focusing on the Revenant bug in this Report.
(There is mild profanity in some sections of the video I'm sorry in advance)

Thank you for taking the time to look into this bug and I am enjoying the new season so far!
- @truToasty Revenant’s tactical doesn’t cancel all passives - there are already a few exceptions: https://apexlegends.fandom.com/wiki/Ability#Passive_abilities
It may be a design decision for Catalyst’s passive to be unaffected.
