Octane 2.0

Octane needs a NERF IF ANYTHING!!! All I have been seeing are octanes, he IS META... I have even begun to start playing him as my main now over bangalore and pathfinder and I hate playing octane for the most part but he's too god NOT to pick now, literally easy top 3's with him since you can run from any gunfight or 3rd party xD...

He needs more than a light nerf. Almost everyone is playing him in Wildcard right now, and what's happening on PC is so unplayable....

It's a shame the developers haven't been able to beef up the legend for many seasons so that it doesn't ruin the entire game.

First Ash, then Horizon, now Octane.

If there aren't significant nerfs to the free movement class at the start of the next season, this will definitely be my last season in this broken game.

Dude octane got a crazy buff, he gets fortified and increased passive healing when you hold the stim button down(it's almost like using the syringe amp but you can run). I don't play him much and even I think he's crazy now, after playing a few games as him. he needs a slight nerf.

I really don't understand why they're doing this and where they're getting these ideas. Almost every idea that's been introduced in the last two years has only ruined the game. Are they really trying to kill it on purpose?

I dream of a mode featuring good old Apex (permanently, like Wildcard). Without the legends since Alter. Without all the changes introduced after s21.

I have to agree. Octane's original stim is now a PASSIVE. I can't say this enough - this DEV team has no clue what they're doing and certainty don't know how to balance a bucket of water on flat pavement, let alone Apex Legends. 

I can't wait for the day you guys quit or get let go. At this point, that would be the healthiest thing for this game! 

That was ironic. You know that?

This ruined the entire point of the game. Octane's movement is so powerful that it's hard to keep your crosshair on him while shooting. It's crazy what you've done to this game, but that's how it's been for two years. Needless to say, almost every above-average Octane uses tap strafe macros, right?

Further proof that Octane is simply broken is that I have roughly 10% kills as the kill leader on all other legends.On Octane, I have over 40% (I only played for one day to see what you broke again). So there's nothing to even discuss here. Another buff/rework that ruins the entire game.

After the failed reinforcement of Ash a year ago, are you making the same mistake again? Don't you learn from your mistakes?

Reverse these changes before you wear down the Apex community like you did in the Ash meta.
