Remove gold armor

It doesn't fit into the game. I lazer a Wriath push her to finish her, and in the 2seconds it takes for me to get to her she's already used a Battery. How is that fair? I outplayed, out positioned, ...

loot

weapons

The same thing happened to me. Hit a wraith for 130, push her as octane, used jump pad and by the time it takes me to get 30 feet, already back at 170 hp. I died and basically threw and lost the match. If anything it should be as fast as lifelines passive, not faster. It would make it a lot more balanced

I'll say what everyone says to me - This is how the game goes.
I personally love Gold Armor. I can take it from the people I kill too. If you are good enough, you can take out a gold armor person easily. I will snipe them/hit them from afar, see gold armor, and immediately take out someone else from distance. You have to play it right. Don't rush someone with gold armor. Take out their team. This leaves them alone and if you fall back, they may try to revive, thats when you go in. Its not the gold armor, it is the play you make.

  @SolitaryMassacre Yeah, gold armor isn't really a problem, plus, once they know you're gold, it paints a big ol' target on you. Insta thirsting is the price you pay for wearing it (then again insta thirsting is the price you pay for playing Apex in general, but hopefully you know what I mean)!

    Okay so gold armor is a bit OP compared to the other legendary items. I do not suggest removing it, but changing it.
    First it heals way too fast and is a complete game changer in a lot of fights. Self rez makes an obnoxious noise and you can get killed easily while doing it. Helmet is good, but not OP and is not like an instant charge rate. There is no weaknesses with gold armor.
    I suggest that maybe when you finish someone it works like a phoenix. Full health and armor (some vulnerability). That or just give it one extra tick over the purple armor. Right now its stupid how fast you can heal.. Even all the pro's say it is op.
    That or make the fast heal comparison to lifelines and then she can get the faster heal since its her passive.
