R.I.P. Pathfinder
This is my Eulogy for Pathfinder I'm sorry but im going to vent a little, call me a cryer or whatever i iust want to share my opinion. I'm a Pathfinder main and this nerf has made completely useless...
It's funny how everyone just comes here and compares Loba to Pathfinder.
1. Her teleportation is at 30-sec cooldown. So, going by your comment you don't know what you are talking about since you haven't even played Loba.
2. Loba is superior as a mobility character? The minute you throw your bracelet, you will be locked in animation(no guns until you have warped to your destination), you can't sprint or take out your gun or slide. The whole warping takes about 4 sec, so you are vulnerable for 3 sec since you are basically invisible for almost 1 sec(maybe less) when warping. Grapple>Teleportation, anyone saying otherwise is wrong. The grapple goes covers more distance horizontally and more than double vertically. And you can take out your weapon instantly when the grapple disconnects. Also, you can throw in a slide/bunny hop with the grapple to make you harder to hit when you touch the ground, while Loba has to put her bracelet back on after warping so she can't slide or sprint after.
3. Her hitbox is definitely not smaller than Pathfinder. Loba is taller/thiccer than Wattson and Lifeline, so you can infer the relative size of Loba and Pathfinder from this picture below.
Lifeline, Wattson, and Pathfinder have almost the same hitbox size and all of them have low profile debuff on them. I don't know Loba's exact size but let me tell you she is bigger than Path for sure, and more closer to Revenant hitbox size. Cuz she thicc 😛
Pathfinder> Loba even after the nerf. You have decided to be a Loba main? Great! I can bet you haven't even touched her once when you made this post and if you did and still say Loba is a better Pathfinder, I don't know what to tell you. If you have a problem with Pathy nerf, make some valid arguments and don't go throwing around completely ridiculous ideas.
@BaldWraithSimpYeah but Pathfinder can get the entire team out of a sticky situation, Loba can't. Toss in that I miss more shots on Pathfinder than any other legend (aside from wraith).
Pathfinder is still a decent legend. He just has to use his grapple tactically now, instead of all over the place. The problem most people have with him, he's not OP anymore and players who could overachieve with an OP legend can't anymore. Now that they are on equal ground they are getting knocked around a bit more.
I think we need to give things more time and see where/how things are in a week or two. I'm really annoyed with the Mastiff right now. I'm starting to think it's just the fact that everyone is using them. But it gets old getting 2 shot knocked by it before you can unload a R-99 clip. If they land a headshot with all pellets it can do 180 damage in one shot.
