Nerfing Bangalore

I don't know about anyone else but I am very mad at Apex Legends for nerfing Bangalore. She is the only African- American women on this game and she is underappreciated as a player. Her only defense ...

@BlackBlue624 Lifeline doesn’t exist it would seem...

What does ethnicity & gender (lol like that even matters but I just want to see the response knowing it will be good) even have to do with anything.

Also, what nerf?

    Yeah I dunno what this guy is on about ethnicity it really doesn't matter, kinda weird.

    But you can note that the gas particles have been greatly lessened in this patch, affecting both Bangalore and Caustic. I noticed it almost immediately and I have seen several other people talk about it. The conspiracy theory going about other forums is that since the Nintendo Switch can't handle the gas particles they reduced the overall particles for a "fair" game. That must be the nerf he is talking about.

    Edit: I saw a newspiece about it just now too.

      @lKogitsune_marulThx for providing link. Didn’t notice. As of yet I had have not seen a caustic who’s gas went off on me and only 2 bangs who did throw her smoke, but I was chasing 1 and the other did so and I wasn’t in it or looking at it to really notice.

      Does make sense tho and the clip provided speaks volumes. As a frequent caustic player I immediately saw the density was sparser than what I know it looks like. Not by much, but noticeable.

      @Lord_Scorpion34 That mariachi one? I just thought they did that as a random theme xD. If not, speaks to why she wants Loba tho... xD

        I'm not wanting to cause any heated discussion or anything... But why do some people care so excessively much about the ethics/religion/racial accuracy of a certain legend? I'm just here playing a cool game. I get that the diversity offered right now is far from complete and accurate. But I'm not sitting here yelling at Respawn/EA that we still don't have a German Legend. Though then again.

        Next Legend should be called Jäger please, thanks.
