Legend class idea outline for MUCH later (Feb. 2026 update)

As Apex legends brings in more legends, the Recon roster will grow. Instead of having it grow to like 15 legends. I think it would be better if they eventually bring in a Hunter legend class. If it existed right now, Seer, Sparrow and Crypto would be the only 3 Recon legends, which wouldn't really make sense to me. I think some legends would fit more under Hunter, but they should stay as 1 class for now. I personally think Seer now belongs under Controller due to his unmatched crowd control.

If a Hunter class existed right now. It would consist of Ash, Bloodhound, Vantage. and Valkyrie, What I wanna know is, what would Hunter perks be? Here are some ideas

  • Stack Arc stars in 2
  • Scan enemies around your squad on melee (This might actually encourage players to put themselves in bad situations)
  • You have a dedicated optic slot in Wildcard. I came up with that as a Recon perk long before Wildcard existed. I think it would fit more for the Hunters.

  • @m14rampage Some interesting ideas. However lots of other things would need to be implemented for the perks to work.

    Other wildlife would need to be put into other maps. As it is only kings canyon, and storm point, and it's fairly easy to detect them without a perk. Being able to track an enemy after being respawned would be very situational and more than likely not worth it. They'd either be miles away most of the time or mid to late game youll be ill prepared to fight them.

    I'm all for bringing in more wildlife but there needs to be more justifiable reasons.

    I for instance made a new class called the "beast tamer" class. The legends could summon a creature to aid In battle and would bring an extra perk depending on their function. Offense, defeNse, recon, movement,support ect.

    Those were intentionally meant to not be good ideas. Nothing more than just examples. Spectating your killer while waiting respawn would just be a lot of fun. I think it would be more fun than useful. Kind of like how Rampart needs paintball rounds added to her passive. Maybe they can all detect death boxes, but at a much shorter distance than Ash

    I think getting a  short movement boost from knockdowns would work, but may make hunters feel too much like Bangalore (which would still be an Assault legends) If Hunter was a class right now. increased damage in your last mag shot would work for all Hunters (not just Vantage) I don't know if that would still be so when a Hunter class starts to be desired (which I think it will eventually) On the other hand, there could be some kind of execution legend by that point… I'm gonna change the title of this post idea outline.
