Wraith nerf

The devs say they will monitor it and see about bringing back her power in other ways later, but this is a huge nerf to this legend. Closer inspection of the changes show the hitbox has been extended...

@Deliberus her port isn’t a get out of jail free lots of risk involved her pasive isn’t that great compared to gibby’s gun shield or lifelines Rez or caustics ability to breath in other caustic gas And also her tactical ability takes forever to activate so she’s an easy beam when she uses it because she’s easy to hit now due to the hitbox and the amount of time it takes for her tactical to activate. They can make her bigger that is not a problem if it makes people with bad aim he able to hit her I don’t care but her escape abilities went from the best to the worst even octanes jump pad is more viable now

@xCranials "lots of risk involved"
xDDDDDDDDD

Good joke, thanks for the laugh. Anyway, she uses port, gets a speedbost, instant Q and even more speed when sliding. Even if you're using Q without port you can just hop around a corner and use Q or you can slide and Q to briefly negate the slowdown to the speed.

Also, comparing her passive to something like Gibby's gunshield or lifeline rez is so dumb as they have completely different purposes.

@Deliberus You're complaining about Wraith's abilities when she's made for that. She's a movement character, what do you expect her to do?
Do you think the game will be better if they nerf her more? Don't you see that if Wraith becomes a trash character the game will be a camping simulator because she's the only character that allows fast rotations and a fast push?
And before you say anything i'm ok with this nerf, we'll see how it goes, although seeing this first day i think that her low low profile (taking body damage on arms and legs) should be removed.
If you think she's that easy to use, try her and come back here later.
Oh btw, Octane can get faster if she slides while using his q, he should be nerfed 😮.

  @Cro_Pittt "You're complaining about Wraith's abilities when she's made for that"
  
  So? If a legend is made to crap in my face and leads to crappy gameplay I'm going to voice that concern.
  
  "Do you think the game will be better if they nerf her more" Yes, at least then there will be better options to choose from other than Wraith
  
  "Don't you see that if Wraith becomes a trash character the game will be a camping simulator because she's the only character that allows fast rotations and a fast push"
  Errr Horizon, Pathfinder and Octane always exist as alternatives. And if we're talking about camping, that already exists in ALGS and Platinum+ tier matches and for various other reasons that don't have anything to do with Wraith.
  
  "If you think she's that easy to use, try her and come back here later" Sure let me just go and get my time machi...oh wait they nerfed her. Oh well...
