  • I would unlock in this order.

    1st Octane (one of the best in the game imo)

    2nd Mirage

    3rd Caustic

    Caustic have a big hitbox, his traps and have just received a buff as they were to weak. I think he will receieve yet another buff.

    Mirage was better in the beginning, his Q isn’t really effective. People have suggested that his Q should send out random legends - that would be a nice buff. 

    The ultimates of Mirage is seldom effective as most people will still spot you and you can still take damage withouth being able to counter. 

    The ultimate of Caustic should be quadrupled in size and deal twice the damage - as of now it’s just working as smoke

  • Hi @Psycho4Real 

    Octane - Small with simple abilities which boost his speed and make him jump and a passive ability that heals him over time. He is good fun to play but probably has less gameplay depth than say Caustic. Choose Octane if you want fast, furious and fun gameplay.

    Mirage - Not quite as small as Octane, each of his three abilities use decoys to bamboozle opponents, plus, his passive and Ultimate abilities also cloak him for a limited time - although he is not completely invisible to opponents while cloaked. Choose Mirage if you want a slight tactical advantage in combat.

    Caustic - The largest of the three and most difficult to play. His size is probably due to the fact that he is the only one of the three here who has abilities which do damage and also hinder the movement and ability to see of players affected by them. His larger hit boxes are not to every player's taste, but played properly he is very strong. But he takes practise to get the most out of. Choose Caustic if you want close range combat around his gas traps.

    Good luck with your choice.

  • Octane is the most balanced. All three abilities are useful. 

    Mirage's tactical ability can sometimes work and his Ultimate mostly works from long range (unless someone is sniping). 


    Caustic is very situational because of his hitbox and time to use abilities.

    Hey guys,

    Just noticed one thing that I could actually unlock all 3 legends by using 36000 Legend Tokens, I mean I am level 112 now and I never realized I could unlock the legends by using legend tokens I just don't know why there is this misunderstanding but I just instantly unlocked the 3 legends.

    Only used Octane for a round so far, been thinking about possible strategies for Caustic and Mirage

    Definitely octane, small and fast, and his jump pad ultimate can really surprise enemy squads when they are hiding behind cover and you land behind them.

    Also, he heals out of combat, really handy when you just won that fight off spawn and you dont have any syringes.
