Two seasons of Fuse had better be worth it ...

My aim for S9 was to get my KDr as high as possible, but I then lost interest. I got to 2.10 but at the moment I think it's somewhere around 1.75. I've taken a young padawan on board as my wingman an...

@Cheese9Man Can fuse now use beacons?

At this point I question why the defensive legends cant? It would seem that a defensive legends wants to get to circle ahead of all others.

What even?!? 

Let’s enable all the defensive legends to find out where the next ring is, so a team of Caustic and Wattson can trap up and camp it out! 

No thank you, I’ll pass on that.

    @rockyboy1998 Well the likes of fuse isnt a tracker or anything so why can he scan beacons? It makes way more sense that the ones that want to defend an area know where to go.

      @hayhor  It would make far more sense for them to have an actual defensive class passive.

      Survey beacons are directly tied to recons and it makes sense. Anyone who isn't a recon legend shouldn't have access to them in my opinion.

      I don't really understand why this has been done for recons but no other class to be honest.

        @MandatoryIDtag Same with the support legends. Everyone thought that Loba should be able to open that extra compartment on the blue bins!

      @hayhor I’m not sure, he’s imo the worst legend to be introduced into this game (ability wise). I like his character, I find him funny but he isn’t one to be feared when playing.

      I think they are trying to give him as much as they can to try and higher that low pick rate of his.

      It does make sense, however it makes too much sense and would be incredibly OP. It would make games very sweaty, especially ranked games.

        @rockyboy1998 Even though I am closing in on 3,000 kills with Fuse I agree on introduction he was weak, but now his tactical is four times more powerful, and his ult is probably three times as useful.

        One thing people don't seem to get with Fuse is that the knucklecluster can be used as a recon tool as well. Think there might be an enemy in a building or crouched behind a wall? Fire the KC and see if any numbers pop up.

        The KC now renders people one-shot if you stick to them and they've only a white shield. It also stops 'locked doors' when someone stands in front of it to heal so you can't get in - I've lost count of the number of knocks I've got of people using doors for protection.

        I think he's one of the best for third partying. I love Estates and firing nades and KCs at a thirty party fight around a building. The enhanced ML will make that even better.

        Fuse is one of the legends you need to play a lot to get the most out of him. I've met other Fuses who are even better than me, virtually untouchable in fact.

        Having said all this he's terrible in Arenas and I never play him in that mode.

    @rockyboy1998 See, this is the type of attitude I don't understand.  There are different playstyles.  If I have an opportunity to deny access or make it difficult people to run and gun roll me why shouldn't I?  Why is it the "shoot-shoot-shoot" strategy always the one people want and any othe rstyle of play/tactic is frowned upon?  Like many legends Wattson/Caustic's strengths are very situational.  

    Don't get it, really don't.
