Re: Revert wraith nerfs

@Zamaha400 octane can get away instantly with stim and jump pad, horizon can q up, pathfinder can grapple , Gibraltar van protect himself with dome but your problem is with wraith running away by q . Octane is the most broken and annoying legend in the game he can run away quickly and chase you when you are one shot. But you people don't realise that . Wraith Q is literally useless now . Seems like she does not have a q at all . She can get lasered easily now . Her ultimate is useful for a team but for solo it's useless . She has no abilities . Other legends can use their ults like horizon Gibraltar caustic to inflict huge damage . What does wraith ultimate do ? Get out of zone change small location ? Ultimate distance is too short as well. She has been nerfed to the ground . People who played wraith before got used to it now . Nerfing her hurts the player base it does not help other legends. Making one legend worse than others is not good decision making. Instead of Nerfing wraith they could have buffed other legends that would have been a lot better .

@codeleaf00 Octane's stim + pad is an effective escape as well as Bangalore smoke + passive so long as she isn't near death. The community already has a problem with Horizon's gravity lift and Pathfinder's grapple has been nerfed into the ground so these are really bad points to defend Wraith's tactical with. Gibraltar's dome is also slower to activate than Wraith's OLD tactical so I'm not sure why you brought up the big guy. Octane is really the only fair comparison you have and I hear he's getting nerfed soon.
I'm not against Wraith's tactical getting a small buff but the OP was talking about reverting it to the way it was before. I never cared about Wraith's void but it was a ridiculously strong ability.
Decrease the activation time a bit? Sure why not.
Revert her tactical to the instant use, 15 second cool down it had before? No.
They've also tried buffing bad Legends before. How did everyone feel about 75 gun shield HP Gibby complete with quicker revive and healing? Beloved character I know.

@Zamaha400 Well the thing is I don’t like using those characters. I am no good with it, I love having an octane but gibby is dead weight when they’re not handled by a good player. I’m not comparing how other legends escape
I am here to discuss wraith tactical being reverted back to normal. It seems wraith is the most hated legend in this game and everyone wants to nerf this beast.

@codeleaf00
Some legends are stronger than others.
Most have weak abilities, wraith is getting there as well. If everyone cared about the game being balanced then shouldn’t rampart carry her mini gun around, pretty useless how it’s mounted.
When I first heard rampart had that ability, I unlocked her and was extremely disappointed. Basically a pathetic legend. And how her wall break down easily is a joke, setting them up in battle leaves you vulnerable which is why no one uses it.
Loba was a hated character for awhile until people learned how to use her properly

@codeleaf00 My sentiments as well.
