Buff Caustic
Caustic is way too slow and needs a movement buff to be able to fight respectfully since his gas isn’t respected at all. I love playing him but nobody respects his gas it’s too weak

@Peri_Longbow_plzYou know something that's a great idea, why don't someone make 1 topic for each legend. Discuss what changes can be made to them.
Then Respawn picks it up and throws it away. (lol)
If all they do is stare at Winrate/pickrate Apex will stay the same. How about make a topic based on pickerate/winrate. Every suggestion isn't going to do much, unless every Apex player admits
balancing based on tracker is useless.
@XLnarrator What else do you want to base the balancing on? Just on pure feel?
I do agree that going purely for winning and picking rates isn't the best idea. In fact that has never truly worked out. But if a certain weapon or a certain legend remains among the top picked for an extended period of time, then it's worth investigating. I like to remind that Octane is still the most picked legend. To whom I agree a nerf. Wraith is the second, however in this case I do think she's fine as she is. Next up is Bloodhound, to who I agree for a nerf again. At least according to unofficial Apex Legends stats, mind you.
I consider Caustic to be the least in the need for a buff. There are legends who have been begged to be buffed over the course of several seasons and haven't seen any. In that time span, Caustic fluctuated back and forth several times, going from needing a buff to needing a nerf and everything in-between.

- @Peri_Longbow_plz Yeah, it should be based on pure feel where the Community is the democracy. And the creators makes a common idea out of it.
Common sense and feeling. What the majority says she be done. Make polls every now and then, then the final idea should be based off the common idea- @XLnarrator I can tell you right here and right now that this would cause more imbalance compared to what we have already. Because things which are already very popular will be demanded to be buffed, which narrows the viable choices for weapons and characters even more. Even back in Season 4 a lot of people wanted Wraith to be buffed. When her hitbox was the size of a paper with an almost instant-cast ability, endlessly holding portals and whatnot. Now project that to your suggestion of the community deciding for buffs and nerf.
@Peri_Longbow_plzAlright not everything is perfect.
Make a poll if Wraith was powerful and most agrees why change her? Then the creators would suggest nerf or no change to her. That would be said and done. Make sense out of the senseless.
Like if Caustic was at the bottom, they would make a poll and Devs would be consent on how to buff him
