Is pathfinder ever going to get a nerf?
Impossible to escape a pathfinder/chase. tactical is 13 seconds for a recharge. Impossible to get accurate headshots Hitbox is still absolutely awful Are devs actively looking into this or are the...

@Babbediboopi I honestly think that Pathfinder is the only S tier character. I would class Octane/Gibby/Caustic/Lifeline as A tier, and the rest as B tier. Yes, you read that right, even wraith, her nerfs have got to the point where her character is now completely destroyed and the only thing she has got going is her hitbox and her height, that is it. Tacticals now trash, ultimates now trash, no speedbuff, 2.5s to activate a tactical and you still get shot/burnt while in phase. Garbage.
Yeah I might even agree that Pathfinder is a S-tier legend. Like I said, I think he is top 3 in ALL categories imao; offensive, defensive, support/utility etc etc. I would also put Wraith up there in competitive/high elo games though because her ability to transport the entire team to a new location is invaluable when positioning is so important. But I guess that isnt that useful in causal games etc
- @Babbediboopi As a wraith main, I'd rather use Octane than Wraith. That should tell you something. Wraith is mostly trash now.
Well, the picks in the most recent Apex Legends global series tells a different story. I think there was a Wraith in EVERY single team comp, with Pathfinder being a close second (some teams played with a Wraith, Gibb/Caustic, Watson comp instead of a Wraith, Path, Watson comp). So with all respect, its kinda hard to argue that Wraith being "universally" trash in competitive play based on that. I mean you are ofc entitled to your own opinion but the stats speaks for itself.
Wraith is also the most picked Legend outside the pro scene. Here is the pick rate for PC players from the 27 Jan to 27 April for all matches played during this period and as you can see Wraith is #1 and Path #2 with no competition.
- @Babbediboopi Wraith is mostly picked because of her hitbox, some choose because of her abilities, which are literally nonexistent now. You have to also remember when the starting 5 characters were chosen, wraith and pathfinder were the only 2 to choose logically too. I still choose wraith now because I'm used to using her and thats my main, but she is literally trash to use since her abilities take 10+ years to activate.
