Can revive faster. Has a 75hp arm shield. Takes less damage. Has a dome. No character needs all of these abilities. Caustic has a really big hitbox and all he has is 15% less damage. No arm shield. No dome. No OP ult. Nerf gibby already. You cant kill him off spawn. Take away his arm shield

as versatile as he is, you really dont see many of them in game anymore with new legends to choose from. with that gun shield up his movement is pretty slow

Gibby is tough for sure. I mostly take him down only if somehow I manage to land behind him, and shoot a whole mag first.

@Ironflower196 The gas doesn't slow people anymore and nothing about Caustic comes close to Gibby's versatility. He has the best offense, defense, and support all in one package. That's why he needs a nerf.

@AddSolosRespawn A Caustic with that much damage ain't camping much but ok.@Suttles10 Yeah his arm shield is pretty powerful but that didn't stop him from being a joke in Season 1.Personally I considered Gibby to be more dangerous with a gold shield than a red one since shield cells work so well with his gun shield. He's also the least dangerous Legend on drop since Gibraltar is the least likely Legend to chase you.He's unbeatable if you're forced to trade shots with him though.

@Suttles10 Lol its you guys who are hilarious because you all actually think his shield is 75 hp, it is 50 hp. If yall want people to take your complaints seriously get your facts straight why would anyone listen to people who obviously don't know what they're talking about. Also don't go head to head with a gibby unless you're team shooting him. I don't understand what people expect to happen when you go face to face with a gibby. Be aware who is close to you when you drop good players know these things it might benefit some to learn.

@Tperodactyl Caustic gas does damage, slows ppl, and he can see ppl through it. His ultimate can also be used anywhere unlike gibby. Also gibbys dome and ultimate draw a lot of attention. Though I won't disagree that gibby is a better all around legend ppl still pick Caustic more.

@S8N_Spawn It doesn't blur anymore but it still slows unless I missed that patch note. No one really comes close to gibs versatility, he doesn't need a nerf just because he is good. His size is a major hindrance and not a fun disadvantage that's why ppl hardly pick big boys. Gibs is my 2nd pick for ranked but I don't even play him in pubs because he's not really fun. I'll give up bleed though on his gun shield because it shouldn't eat a whole kraber shot, but really that's it. He has a high win rate but is definitely not OP I mean the guy isn't even in the top half of picks.

@Tperodactyl Lol I've killed plenty of ppl with it and I'm pretty sure one of the developers once talked about how if you have a Caustic with a gas grenade at the end you pretty much have won the game. Also Caustic in my experience is more fun than Gibs.

@Tperodactyl I’ve seen a caustic with 1 million damage and an insane 150,000 was gas damage, that’s all you need to know he is unbalanced and for toxic camping fawks

@Ironflower196 You're hilarious, if you think Gibby's arm shield isn't OP. Off the spawn, the dude lands with a blue shield, just because of his arm shield. If he lands on a blue shield, he immediately has 250HP. Any skilled Gibby player gets a HUGE advantage with that arm shield. If he has red shields late in game, he has 300HP because of the arm shield. That is just ridiculous. That arm shield 100% needs a bleed through nerf (which is coming) and an HP nerf down to 25-50HP. There is a big difference between good and OP. That arm shield is definitely OP.
