Pathfinder Buff is secretly another NERF

It’s almost like every time the developers release an update, they don’t realize their actions have consequences.

Let me start by saying this new “smaller grapples are better idea” CAN be an interesting idea, but was implement all WRONG!

As an experienced pathfinder main, 90%+ of my grapples will EASILY reach the 35s mark. I find it difficult to grapple less than that. Yes it’s nice for maybe getting atop a building but by delaying the cooldown timer until all movement has stopped, my old 35s grapple is now a closer to a 40s grapple. F*CKING JOKE! I get that I’m an experienced pathfinder (12K kills), but reaching that maximum plateau of 35s is a no where near difficult and a rookie pathfinder could easily do it. Changing the time frames to 10-30s would still hardly be a buff, wish they just stuck with the 25s compromise as this was implemented horribly. 

Every update that has come out since the original grapple change has nerfed him in some way (can’t jump on ziplines, low profile more prominent as TTK is lower, etc.). I’m F*CKING sick of it!

  • @PatRaad97 No. I personally believed that a 35 second cooldown was appropriate. I use Pathfinder for midfight repositioning, not flight. Flying across the map is definitely worth a 35 second cooldown.
