BLOODHOUND POINTLESS
Bloodhounds ultimate is mainly speed. Yes the black and white with enemy highlights happens to be nice, however the best part is his speed. Makes him harder to hit and more aggressive like blitzkrieg...
Thank you for the feedback on Bloodhound! We have another discussion around this Legend here if you wanted to jump in there too: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Legend-Spotlight-Bloodhound/td-p/7789536/page/3
We've seen some chatter around his abilities, like the Eye of the Allfather stunning enemies within range when activated. Do you have any specific thoughts on that ability? (other than touching up on listening to footsteps being more useful)
I think the stun would tip off the enemies and it's a mechanical rather than strategical advantage. People's mechanics (ability to run, aim, shoot) get impaired. This is an ability that requires little skill to take advantage of. I think if you're going to boost the ability, instead make it something that unlocks new plays once the ability is mastered. For example, you could tip off on the guns the enemies are holding, so that the skilled player can better plan how to attack. This would be of great advantage to skilled players who know how to fight people with specific weapons; however, it would be useless to a newbie, who doesn't know how this works. And I think that's the way it should be. Apex should reward skill.
