Change wraiths run animation back to the ninja run

I understand the balance for weapons and legends skills but instead of changing wraiths run animation, I think respawn should have made changes to her hit box so it was more accurate to the running character.

Her run was cool, she ducks and was slightly harder to hit previously (but even so you could 1 clip her) 

Now she runs like a generic fortnight character, and loses a lot of her agility 

With Apex's Pakour mechanics and importantance on movement wraiths animations made sense.

She is a highly trained Voidwalker Soldier with a mysterious past etc 

I've dealt with the tactical nerfs and ult nerfs but the run animation really kills the character for me and I've been playing since season 1

And if the issue is her running slightly different makes her harder to hit 

Give the other characters distinct running animations as well 

Especially because they all have there own gimmick

Like mirage for example who is way more relaxed, smooth, cool

Should not run like Bangalore who is a strong iron hide soldier 

Or octane who is crazy about speed and has prosthetic legs 

I've loved this game for awhile but I hope it takes a better direction than it is now,

But there's always hope for titan fall lol

  • @GreatSoulNamazu Why not give all characters the naruto run?
    Why should the smallest character gain an even smaller hitbox when she is running? (BTW, this change to her running doesn't make her agility any less, it just makes her hitbox more consistent with other characters)
  • @GreatSoulNamazurunninganimations like this willallways result in some kind of inbalance, they shouldve got rid of it long time ago

    and pls dont call that bs a ninjarun its insulting

  • @GreatSoulNamazuI also dont understand what it is with all yo people and wraith tbh, she is not a ninja or any kind of superwoman... she is a bold 30 years old abused woman with a mental sickness but thats about it

    If you wanna play some ninjatyp character you should play Crypto, he is korean and not japanese but he actually really runs similar to a real ninja did run...He bends slighty forward and has his hands in his pockets(ninjas used to have their hands on their hips while running to stop the sword from swining)
    + he has this kind of stealthy hiding background

    Wraith did just run like a stupid animecharacter

  • Edit:

    Her speed/agility doesn't change. But her nimbleness visually is gone

    I get some people couldn't hit her, but I never had that issue

    And I'm not insane about Wraith, I've been maining loba 

    But the damn run made Waith, Wraith

    She's got the kunai she's got the future ninja feel

     A hitbox issue is a hitbox issue if you can fix the hitbox to the character it doesn't matter how they run you just have to hit them

    And I second giving everyone the naruto run

    I need to see gibby doing it lol

    @GreatSoulNamazubut she is not like a ninja ☹️
    a kunai has also nothing to do with ninjas

    maybe you just like naruto ^^

    as i said if you aim for a future ninja you should look at crypto

  • @GreatSoulNamazu Ok, usually I would argue with post saying that Wraiths nerf should be reverted, but you seem reasonable. I know that a lot of people really liked Wraiths running animation, but when you think about it logically, this nerf makes sense. She was hittable when Naruto running, and I do agree with you when you said make her hitbox bigger. But still, her running animation gave her an advantage over other legends. They could revert if they gave all other legends some kind of running animation, or gave her a damage increase when Naruto running. I don't really agree with the damage increase idea, it was just an option.
