Wraith portal changes

After playing “Flashpoint “ , the greatest mode, I realized that I keep losing to a team that is hiding after the final circle closes with a wraith and using the portal to stay alive since you don’t take any damage while in the void. I’m using a Life Line and her drone was nerfed so it can’t survive in the storm, but you get a good 2 seconds before it vanishes to get health.

I think it would only be right if wraith was given a longer distance portal to buff her, but nerf her portal also to where it can’t last in the storm as long. A portal to run through back and forth plus her phase ability can allow her to last in the storm approximately 35sec or maybe more depending on the portal distance.... while my team is getting knocked by the storm because of no heals or other legends that aren’t capable of lasting long enough to survive for a win without fighting in 3 seconds ... 

I’m realizing this in “Flashpoint “, but now that it’s been used consistently I’m sure players will use it in in any mode to get an advantage. Having an advantage is always good, but the storm is something all legends should be effected close to equal... just a thought since I’ve lost so many battles due to a team with wraith forcing you to consider choosing wraith, at least in this game mode. Maybe you make the portal last only 5 seconds in the storm after setting and Life lines drone last 4 seconds in the storm. The wraith would still last much longer if the player has a 3 sec phase they can use so there’s still an advantage so maybe it should be even time of phase and drone destruction. Maybe while using a battery and drone together allows for health giving from the drone increase a little. Or maybe wraith takes damage in the portal still but not full storm damage but drains the phase usage time. Maybe it’s just the mode itself but something to consider for apex future.

    @MrVideoFreak_YT So maybe it’s just the mode she benefits from where it last long enough to keep players alive or maybe it is set before the ring touches it so it doesn’t disappear right away and acts normal. I literally just watched a team in the storm go back and forth through the portal to stay alive....

    Ok I’m not a wraith main but I realize now after watching some gameplay the portal does die quickly but only if both sides are in the ring. So the person did set it and one side was in and one out but once both are in it vanishes but it gave the player enough time to use it twice and phase to win the match without fighting.... so I guess it’s the mode...so I’m forced to either find the team with a wraith first or play with wraith to guarantee a chance at a no ring no fight win. Maybe the final ring is just the issue and that changes for future flashpoint and modes?

    I wouldn’t say cheating but to come in 2nd in like 10 games because a wraith has the advantage with the ability combination makes me not want to play the mode  when u think you’re going to fight but you’re only fighting the ring....
