Re: Wraith is nerfed to DEATH!!!
@Sir_Named I understand where you are coming from, but lets face it for a moment. wraith portal while good for various movement actions isn't equal to a gibby dome shield. for example you cannot heal inside the portal and anyone can follow using it to finish off or escape from you.
caustics gas makes it hard for your own team to see through and fire at enemies and can be a hinderance as much as a help, they are also easily removed by shooting at the metal base.
bangalore smoke wont stop bullets and makes anyone reviving a team member inside still at risk. rolling thunder imo is not as good as the gibby bombardment its time delay and spacing of shells make it somewhat ok to avoid and although it has a larger area of shell placement it is rather predictable unlike gibby bombs which last abit longer and strike multiple times over the area of effect. (I mainly play bangalore and lifeline btw)
lifeline has good healing and revive but that's about it tbh, the care packages are ok and at times somewhat good but rather random, the healing bot is of course a good tool but gibby dome does everything for him that lifeline can do in terms of revive and heal speeds plus adds lifeline healing speed to team mates.
as for wraith run anim, its to easy imo to score headshots on her from the front because she is so leaned forwards its literally legs or head shots that will hit with hip fire from a medium range add the time taken to activate into the void which is at least half as long to long makes her somewhat easy to kill. headshots do so much damage that even 5% extra does make a difference to her, of course It is situational catching her coming towards you unaware.
I know rebalancing can be a tricky business but imo nerfs of the same character over and over are not the answer I would like to see buffs applied to characters that seem to be lacking in some way over nerfing characters. and I would also be more reluctant over nerfing based on complaints of community because a lot of complaints stem from angry people who lost a lot of games or feel they was cheated somehow when it could just be they are not good and fighting players who are alot better. take for example me for instance I have played around 4000 games since day1 I have been on winning teams about 50 times total I am a terrible shot its very rare I do 200 damage in a game and I have lost count to the amount of times I have been punched to death while trying to shoot an enemy lol... but I don't demand its because the character is op and needs a nerf I don't cry hacks or snap keyboards or punch holes in my monitor over it, however those kinds of reactions are quite common place in online gaming, the devs should take them with a pinch of salt. anyways sorry for the what now must be a wall of text have a good1
