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.
@BaldWraithSimpSo i was off by a few seconds does thst make literally everything else stated in my post not valid? I bet your the type of guy who gets mad when someone says the like a series because they dont know every detail religiously. She literally just came out 2 days ago
- @XGC_UZUMAKI That was the most detailed post I have made on this forum and you think I was mad? I provided detailed, descriptive reasons why your eulogy(learned a new word!) was wrong. I didn't just say 'hey, you are just off by 5 sec so you are wrong', instead I gave you a very nice and cool-headed logical explanation of why I think what you said isn't true and most people will agree with me(I think).
Actually I am the guy who doesn't remember the name of episodes and characters of a series. And I bet you are the type of guy who gets mad when someone proves you wrong with a very reasonable answer. 🙂- @BaldWraithSimp Im not mad at all it was an analogy since you assumed because i didnt know the exact time her cd was that i just didnt play her the analogy being you calling me out for not watching the show/playing the game because i was wrong on a single detial. To the contrary your detailed post just pointed out that you didn't take into account that lobas ability can be cancelled/commited to early if you double tap the ability button. Loba is no doubt a more viable mobility character than pathfinder with her teleport the range you can travel with either is pretty simular. Regardless of travel distance Loba having the shorter cd allows her to outpace path easily i've pretty much played nothing but Loba since her release since the Pathfinder nerf. I may not know all the details down to the pixel like you but playing both i can clearly see the difference in ability
- @XGC_UZUMAKI If you do the math, for 7 Loba teleports you get 6 grapples so not much difference. And like I said, grapple can be combined with slide, bunny hop, etc while you can't do that with Loba's teleport so that debunks the theory that Loba is more mobile. And grapple has more than twice vertical distance. Loba teleport can help her get out of pinned down buildings but she is not much use in open areas unless you teleport to cover, while you can zoom across the map with pathfinder using the terrain. Pathfinder definitely feels more mobile. I am maining Loba as of now since I needed to change my main, had enough games with Octane and Pathfinder.
And sorry about the unintended hostility in my original post.
