Wraith Buff
I've been playing Wraith since I've started playing Apex, and overall, i quite like her character and her skills. and by no means am i a expert player. On paper, her skills seem really useful. Her p...

But Bangalore can use her smoke twice and has a devastating ultimate ability on top.
To compare directly; Wraith's passive is clunky and half of the time doesn't warn you until you have already been shot. Bangalore's passive works reliably.
Wraith's Q renders enemies invisible to you, but you stay visible to them, while also being unable to do anything except moving for the duration. Bangalore's Q can be used twice and can render your entire team basically invisible, while allowing you to continue shooting, healing, reviving or what have you.
Wraith's ultimate allows her to run quickly for a while and place portals where her run starts and where it ends. She is vulnerable while she runs as she cannot do anything else for the duration, and anyone can use the portals - enemies and allies both. Bangalore's ultimate is an artillery strike without friendly fire, it's very useful in just about any situation.
I think when comparing those two directly, there is just no way to come to the conclusion that these things are balanced.

You conveniently left out that Wraith's Q makes her avoid all damage and move faster for the duration. Her ultimate isn't just a point and click damage attack like Bangalore's, Its tactical squad movement and therefore takes a little more strategical aptitude. she is actually one of the strongest characters imo. Just because you aren't making effective use of the tools you are given does not make the tools weak.
I do like the suggestion of the option to close the portal prematurely.
Wraith is pretty overrated imho, people just like her for the paranormal emo whatsoever girl vibe.
