@S1mmOJ I feel the exact same way, this isn't really a nerf at all. If they wanted to nerf wraith they need to focus on her outrageously tiny hitbox.....

@The7O2Guy Don’t give em ideas, the low profile perk balances her out I think. She is only as good as the player because movement is key with wraith. Also, I feel her phase is about in the same spot as it was if you know what I mean, except it got reworked. It’s less of an escape ability, now more along the lines of octane’s stim.

  Sorry @Stringer2048 no disrespect but you on another planet if you truly believe phase is akin to stim.
  Stim is extremely penalised, 3 stims and octane is practically half health - and the regen is far too long to recoup that. Plus remember that octane can get sprayed with bullets whilst in stim. And btw, the octane reworks are still terrible.
  Wraith is the go to legend for people who genuinely want an easy ride, now more than ever given this latest buff. She is the legend for people who cannot legitimately survive with other legends. This isn't an opinion, it's a reality if you see the stats on top 1,000 wins/kills (70% are wraiths).
  I have had a million and one encounters where I'm absolutely dominating a wraith, she phases, and poof there goes all advantage.
  I'd rather the Devs just openly admit that they have no intention of removing the advantage, but would prefer they stop buffing her and packaging it as a nerf.
  On the other hand. Free game and EA/Respawn so I can't exactly complain given their legacy of terrible decisions.
