Think about it a character that's able to teleport his entire squad to another part of the map in a sticky situation.Thoughts?

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97 What you are describing is one of Loba's abilities (but only for her), wait till season 5 🙂

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97 Well for starters, that sounds a lot like Wraith ult.Second, having a single use ultimate would be really weak. It’d have to be really strong to outweigh the negative if only being able to use one per match.

So basically revenant before the latest patch? 🥳

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97Season 5s legend will be able to throw a disc (bracelet) and teleport to that location but i think it will be only her (Rosie/lloba) that is able to teleport and not her whole squad

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97 I'd suspect that'd be a bit too luck-based. Some team with perfect positioning getting shot in the back after a team teleports in aren't going to feel they fairly lost. Also there's the chance of teleporting from the proverbial frying pan into the figurative or literal fire, which isn't going to satisfying. @TheJumpingJawa jokes about a bug with Revenant's Totem from a little while back, but that was quite frustrating for folks who were ported to an unwinnable location. Folks are mentioning the classic FPS throwable teleport beacon (while mentioning a hypothetical future character with hypothetical future mechanics), perhaps a version of that with an AoE teleport would be a more predictable take on the panic escape teleporter.

How about a character that uses there ultimate to teleport but only once?

@TBTFW No because you can only use the ultimate once through the entire game u get one shot and it puts u in a random spot with in the map u don't get to choose

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97 I mean think about your in a spot to where its gonna end up a cluster f*** weither its Grenade spam or theres more than 2 squads coming from all directions and I'm sure you're tired of getting trapped inside those loot vault cave systems during a third party or ambush maybe tired of squads half a** working together to take yours out ? Well here's that solution for you

@JACKTH3R1PP3R97or a range restriction can also be an option

@Sir_Named Similar yes but the same no not exactly it's not a portal but literally teleporting with no streaks attached in a random area of the map it can even be while the rings closing in just doesn't teleport you in the storm
