Wraith rework

Wraith is one of the MOST nurfed legends in the apex legends history. And I think I have a solution. First give back her fast phase, but under one condition- Wraith will now have a brand new mechanic inspired by the voidwalker trailer. Now she will have a procentage bar on the game HUD. Here comes the interesting part- she has a 4 second cooldown when she phases, but when she's phasing it drains power from the bar and when bar reaches to 0% she needs to wait for it to reach back to atleast 20% to use her tactical again. The bar starts to charge 5 seconds after the ability is over and recharges 1% every 0,5 seconds. Increase the range of the dimensional rift.

  • @George575758 The reason wraith is so op is not simply how often she can use her abilities. She has safe repositioning which no other legend can compete with, and of course theres her tiny hitboxes.
  • They nurfed the run animation, but with that rework it Will need more skill because the phase bar drains quite fast and if the player is not aware of that he could end up in a worse spot then before he repositioned, but If the player mastered the phase bar he could do a devestating play. This could add a hole new spark to the character. Think of it not as a god tier rework, but a idea how the character could be more exciting.did I mention that you could stop the phase mid way whenever you wanted? Now wraith could be used as a aggressive type of character

  • Umm it's S tier from the start pls of the game. And you call that the worst

    @George575758 She's still got a pretty high win rate and is often used in predator lobbies. I stopped playing Wraith a few seasons ago because she is honestly just a really boring legend.

    They decreased her portal range because it shouldn't be used to travel faster and farther, (which is the purpose of PathFinder's zip line), it should mainly to get out of tricky spots, and help your team reposition.

    The devs were reasonable when altering her abilities because by taking more time to phase you can run faster and stay in the phase for longer.

    This is a terrible idea. And I’m a wraith main myself, with over 15,000 games played on Wraith and I’m in the top 100 players worldwide for almost all stats on the legend. Changing the cool down based upon a “charge” is stupid, this sounds like a nerf, it would make the game choppy and make wraith less fun to use, and since the rework in season 5, Wraith is now able to phase and see her enemies while in the void. if you simply phase onto and enemy, you can use her aggressively now because you can see them and shoot almost instantly after coming out of phase!!! I do that already all the time and it works! There is no need to over complicate things, Wraith is in a decent place. The only buffs needed for her kit but that are kind of selfish would be a faster into the void activation time, and a faster cool down on her portal/ an extension of the distance it can travel. But honestly when you get good at apex you realize legend abilities do less than just being good at the game, hitting shots and learning how to position/move well. 

  • You know that it's just an idea and you don't need to get that hostile over it. Plus you know that the enemy can see you as well and when you have a split second delay before pulling out your weapon and firing it. And it isn't a nerf because it will just increase the skill needed to play her.
