RESPAWN DOES NOT AGREE TO LIFELINE COMPLAINS?

According to “TheGamer.com“ Respawn answers; Lifeline is doing fine! Link below:

 

@ the Devs,

 

I would like to know on behalf of the apex community & especially Lifeline mains what we can expect from Lifeline’s future?

 

In case when giving Lifeline a rework doesn’t seem necessary to all or some developers. I want to ask to reach out to our Apex community, because clearly we are not on the same page if this article on TheGamer.com is accurate.

 

Most Lifeline mains have big concerns about Lifeline. It will be a safe statement to say that most of us Lifeline mains are “NOT” happy! She is not balanced, other characters doing her job better than herself.

 

Here are the complains & solutions in a nutshell we collected in my last post 🔥“Rework megatread lifeline”.

 

Complains:

 

  • Slow revive animation
  • No revive protection for herself or downed teammates.
  • Static DOC drone
  • Lack of support

 

Solutions:

 

- Revive solutions:

 

  • No tap revive animation.
  • Sending DOC revive mechanic
  • Big shield mechanic (knockdown)
  • Small shield mechanic

- Protect solutions:

 

  • Protecting “big” DOC shield (knockdown) (revive)
  • Protecting “small” DOC shields (healing/revive)
  • DOC Stun/shock enemies (when nearby)

- Support solutions:

 

  • Sending following DOC heal drones

 

Please consider on behalf of your Lifeline mains a second opinion and revisit Lifeline’s stability in Apex Legends. I hope you guys found this is interesting. We surely are willen to give some more ideas if needed.

 

All good intentions. Thanks you so much!

  • @ROTTERDAM-BOSS I can see the frustration but Lifeline is honestly fine. A change/buff to her Ult or a slight buff to her tactical may be in order but her revive is pretty great. The only downside to it is asking your teammates not to stupidly die in the open or crawl AWAY from cover after they've been knocked. You can't always control where you're knocked but stupid teammates are the main reason she gets no value from her revive.

    She's probably the weakest reviver in competitive but more than competent for the majority of Apex players.

    @heme725Thanks for sharing your opinion.

    Stupid teammates doesn’t exist, unless you refer to cheaters or griefers.

    I agree she is one of the weakest revivers. Especially in higher ranks Dime/Master/Pred.

    Please notice my other post about her lacking abilities.  “Rework Megatread Lifeline”. Please discuss with us, you might change your mind 😉.
