I will get straight to the point with this one. I believe the Kraber should not be in ranked or comp in general. I just lost a ranked game because a guy got a lucky headshot on me with the Kraber at somewhat close to medium range. No gun in Apex should have a one shot capability especially in ranked. Just my thoughts though.
@om3ga51999Meanwhile stuff like this happens:
The Kraber is just fine in ranked and pubs as well as in ALGS etc. as is, no changes necessary in my opinion.
Players just need to increase their own awareness while playing with or against the Kraber and plan for the eventuality that the longer the game progresses the possibility that another player has a Kraber is going to be out there. Play smart with or vs the Kraber if you are afraid of it rotate away if you can or push the Kraber player, its not like it has a high ROF.
Yes it sucks when you get nailed by it but it is a part of the game and challenges players keeping them on their toes.
The Kraber is rare to find on top of that.
Their are other issues with the game that the Devs need to fix (all the server probs etc that came with season 10) that are a lot more important than addressing a non-issue.
its not rare, and there is no counterplay to it. nobody knows if its on the map until its either shot at them or someone gets a kill. they literally have balanced champions to create conditions for counterplay, but theres only 1 weapon in the game that one shots, and 2 care packages drop at a time on either side of the map, and there is STILL a chance both have a kraber.
its the ONLY gun that does what it does. every other gun has alternatives. you cant increase awareness when theres no ability to determine whether or not a kraber is on the map. especially on storm point. Kraber outshines EVERY SINGLE CARE PACKAGE WEAPON THAT HAS EVER EXISTED. I wonder why? EVERY OTHER GUN HAS BEEN A NORMAL DROP. The kraber is the only gun thats unique to being unique. Every other legendary weapon is available as a gray drop.
You havent been competitve enough to actually complain about it, thats the main issue. Competitve players are mad that one out of 30 people on the map, in the 3rd round, have a nigh one shot gun. Nerfing ammo rates wasnt enough, its not a productive weapon to people enjoying ranked gameplay.
There is NOTHING more important than balancing the main part of this game, which is the guns. Server issues have died down, as they always do. Audio issues get fixed, as they always do.
The kraber has been a complaint since it was introduced.
