Couple possible Buffs (Wraith & Caustic)

I'm very new, but have played enough other games to know an underpowered character. He gadget currently works very well for area denial, but I personally feel it should be capable of actual damage. That might be the devs intention, to just keep him at area denial, but I think maybe buffing his gas to 10 damage per tick would go a long way.

Also, I think it would be cool if wraith could close her portal as she chooses, killing any players in them as they close. 

If I get anything wrong please let me know down below 🙂

    Wraith seems to be a long range character just because enemies can use your portal, it's best use is having one end in a safe space and one end in a good shooting position that enemies are too far away to get to.  I agree that caustic should deal more damage with his gas, right now it's at about mosquito level of annoyance to walk through when it should be semi lethal to walk through although I don't know why the robot is affected unless he has an air cooling system that would get clogged up with gas.

    Caustic is a difficult character to both use and even gauge his worth. He doesn’t deal much damage with gas, so you/your teammates have to be able to be aware of and notice the pros of his gas to determine how well a Caustic is doing or how good the character is in general.

    People seem to be forgetting that the utilities in this games aren't designed and meant as a means to kill but as a means to survive they're meant to be used to create space between you and your oponents allowing you and your squad to recharge and heal up.

    The gas doesn't deal much damage as it's intended to keep them at bay and not kill them.

    And wraith is indeed a longer range character and she's fine all her utilities are meant to be used as an quick escape out of harms way.

    Gas should be something to avoid, not something to carelessly walk into.
