@jdanek722 I'm just swinging by to say that I disagree with everything you are saying in this post.
Thank you Devs for the recent legend updates.

@jdanek722 No I agree. Wraith didn’t need a nerf. I believe that the gibby and wraith updates were decided solely on the data of popularity and not at all on bringing balance. If anyone needs a tactical nerf it’s pathfinder. He’s arguably one of the best legends in the game over all and his tactical has been a curse for opponents for far to long. They just want player to put down certain legends but the underlying issue is player want to play the legends they’ve grinded stats for. Gibralters gunshield needs a nerf by 25 damage and he’ll be perfect I think. On the topic of wraith I doubt they will do anything anytime soon as they were probably well aware of the kickback the community would give them. Respawn if your listening I’m still gonna play wraith even if you nerf her again. Hope you enjoy months on end of players groveling and moaning about it.

@F1YBYN1GHT You really hit the mark with this: "They just want player to put down certain legends but the underlying issue is player want to play the legends they’ve grinded stats for."

Most players like to stick to 1-2 legends to grind out the stats to make their banner look stronger. So it is understandable that all the Wraith mains are pissed off about this update, because 'their' legend which was arguably one of the best in the game, is now slightly worse after the nerf.
I think the best way to resolve some of this frustration is to implement "Overall Kill", "Overall Damage", etc., trackers so that we can display our true prowess no matter what legend we play as.
