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_plzThis is not about Caustic anymore is it? (Oh well tell them to create another Caustic topic). Fans want Wattson and Caustic to be buffed. Have u been on Reddit, alot of her mains want her to be an actual RepairsMan. Dude, they want Defense to be kind of useful. Who can stop the aggressors? Defense, so the offensive would think a little of thier power is a whole lot.

10 sec node for Wattson
Passive for Caustic
Make Rampart a Craftsman
Just a little improvement even aggressors approve of.

As the playerbase change, Apex will adapt

@XLnarrator Right. Back to Caustic.

He needs some sort of buff, yes. But a lot of the suggested buffs often consist of "make his gas deadlier" - We have one guy in this thread who even says "make enemies inside of the gas more vulnerable to incoming damage" - Which would quickly turn him from 'he could be better' to 'now he becomes a necessity'...

The amount of synergies with that buff alone are endless. Almost all damaging abilities would get a 15% buff when paired with caustic (for some legends that's going to be broken) - But even with gunfire alone... 15% more damage is a lot.

I would rather see a utility buff. Which I have proposed a while ago but for the most part got ignored. Go figure, lol.
