@billybobbjoebob I've only just come back to Apex a few days ago, but that change blew me away. It's almost pointless to even try to fight a lifeline at a distance. If you pair it with a gold backpack it's just insanity. You can rez your teammate with over half health and shield, and you get unbreakable cover to fight from. I've even seen people fighting out in the open as lifeline just crouching behind a teammate, letting them get knocked, rezing them to put up the shield and firing from that. Then when the teammate is up with half health and shield they can just fire away until they're downed again and lifeline gets another free shield.
I've seen people use it a few times to cross open stretches with no cover when they're being shot at by a whole squad of people. Or you can just use it to slowly back into cover rezing your teammate a few steps at a time.
I love that she can rez people and move at the same time, it's a great ability and makes sense for her from a lore-standpoint - but I think not having a cooldown is pretty strong.
