Apex Legends Season 9 is baffling Lifeline, but it will also drive the character crazy. For now, it remains to be seen which one will outperform the other, but news of the nerf and buff arrives shortly after confirmation that a Revenant buff is in the works and will probably arrive during season 9 as well.
Speaking of the character and season 9, which begins in May, on Reddit, John Larson, who works on the game as a live balance designer, confirmed that he increases the character’s tactical healing speed by 60% Pack of care to offer guaranteed updates. However, these pairs of fans will be accompanied by the removal of the character’s rebirth shield.
Of course, depending on your style of play, fans can get over the nerve here, but it’s a pretty important, though not unexpected, nerve.
On the one hand, the 60% increase in healing speed is appreciable and substantial. It is also a much needed improvement. However, while changing the care package is also very necessary, it does not change the fact that the care package is still very risky to use, especially in some parts of the map.
That said, it’s worth noting that all of this could change at the time of the season 9 presentation on May 4th. And of course, nothing could change. Normally, the balance of the game changes constantly, especially in the testing phase, but with season 9 in less than a month, it’s safe to assume that if changes are made to these buffs and nerfs, they won’t be important.
