Respawn Entertainment launched Apex Legends with eight unique characters while adding Octane in the March 19 update. But as the game grows, it seems Legends with large hitboxes are being left on the sidelines more often than not. In a Reddit post, user \u2018TerminaV\u2019 suggested giving larger characters a special trait called \u201cMomentous Momentum\u201d which would prevent a slow from being shot that perfectly compliments their design. Characters like Octane and Wraith are fast, nimble and have smaller hitboxes that make their competitive edge pretty straightforward. But their larger counterparts in the game like Gibraltar are slower, have larger hitboxes and no discernible advantage to bring to the battleground. TerminaV noted that giving larger Legends haven\u2019t been accordingly changed to suit players\u2019 needs in the battle royale, so might as well give them something new to help raise them up. \u201cIf damage reduction and just giving them more health, or buffing the shit out of their legend abilities isn\u2019t the answer,\u201d TerminaV said. \u201cThen try giving big rig legends a universal passive that makes them immune to being slowed when hit by bullets (to balance out the fact that they\u2019re easier to hit).\u201d Other commenters immediately agreed with the idea, seeing as it would be a great compliment to the larger Legends\u2019 obvious weakness while still making sense in the overall game. \u201cThis is a fantastic idea,\u201d Reddit user SyntaxError9998 said. \u201cThis actually makes a lot of sense, they\u2019re big so they just power through, and since they aren\u2019t slowed they aren\u2019t spending more time taking damage.\u201d Many other users implored Respawn Entertainment to take note of the idea to at least try out something in a similar vein, so as to finally reinforce Apex Legends\u2019 bigger figures to some degree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simple Apex Legends buff could make Gibraltar and Caustic more viable Respawn EntertainmentCharacters like Gibraltar and Caustic in Apex Legends are starting to fall behind in use throughout King\u2019s Canyon, but a simple buff would go a long way to making them more fit for the battlefield.
