We need to talk about Gibraltar

I have no issue what so ever with Gibby taking less damage than wraith due to his hit box size, although I will say it was a lazy fix to a problem. 

what I do have a issue with is his gun shield coming back mid fight, now If I’ve already broken his gun shield I should not have to do it again. Red evo shield gibby with full gun shield is a nightmare to deal with.

i understand it is part of the character and is not something he should loose however my suggestion is this, upon dropping he has full gun shield, once broken it takes a single cell to repair it after your full shield is repaired.

i would also like to mentioned that having a first person shooter game where different characters take more or less damage will never in its life cycle be balance, If I’m wraith and come up against gibby using the same gun and shield and we hit the same shots I loose the fight due to no fault of my own

  • @Versa_DrmzI personally try to snipe Gibby, due to the fact that his gun shield pops back, even without using a cell. Like, you can break it, and it comes back not even a minute later.

    At least for me. So, trying to down a red evo Gibby, is like trying to get a carepackage that fell off the side of the map so right, that when you go to open it, the map forces you off. ~ Legit an experience of mine.

    Just played a match with a Gib, who I would assume was using health hacks. In training mode, I can down a dummy in 3 prowler bursts. (Cuz 5 per burst, 15 bullets). I was point blank to the Gib, and emptied a whole prowler into him. I had no mags. That's 20 bullets, 4 bursts. All bullets hit him. We were point blank. That's enough to crack his purple, in which it did, and then kill him. Instead, the Gib somehow got his full armor back while being hit with the prowler, that I switched to a Flatline and started emptying THAT mag into him. During this fight of about 10 seconds, I broke his gun shield, and it popped back without a recharge. My teammates also broke his gun shield prior to me fighting him, and it also came back a second later. As I said, he must of been health hacking. It's just so dam broken that he has all this health and reduced damage, and people can just cheat or abuse glitches to be unkillable. My teammates both got knocked at the same time, and to this player. Both were hitting him at the same time. Case in point: The cheating and the amount of buffs this legend has is beyond annoying.

  • @Versa_Drmz Just give it up. They know he's too strong, they don't care. We've been asking for fixes for so long and they instead out out cosmetic events that cause more bugs. It's usesless sadly
  • @Midnight9746 The only logical solution I can get out of the encounter you had was gibby was spamming his conceal/deploy button for his shield to make it last longer and to confuse you and both teammates, either that or he was indeed hacking.
  • @Midnight9746 I think what you just described here is an issue within itself, gibbys arm shield should be completely different sound fx to a normal shield break. I'm also curious to see how long gibby's shield takes to recharge back to 50hp when being concealed and before being destroyed, because if it is a lot shorter than it being completely destroyed and recharging then I believe this may need looking into.

    @chiefthunderball I know mate, honestly the game has potential they just have money on there mind and nothing else. Gibby is broken has been for 2 seasons and they haven’t done anything about it really, he’s made lifeline pointless in the process smh 

  • @Versa_Drmz I dont think they doesnt nerf him because they are lazy and only thinks about money but because of his pick rate is not that high

    @NewfeelinQc @pick rate shouldn’t come into it at the end of the day I spent £350 to get wraiths heirloom, I’m not going to pick someone else for awhile after that
