Apex Legends devs already considering reworks for Octane and Lifeline RespawnRespawn Entertainment have revealed that they\u2019re eyeing up potential reworks for Octane and Lifeline now that Mirage has been buffed following the launch of Apex Legends Season 5. The one thing that sets Apex Legends apart from its fellow battle royale titles is that players use different \u2018Legends\u2019 that each have their own unique abilities. You can spy with Crypto, disappear with Wraith, or trip people up with Wattson \u2013 there are a ton of possibilities. Fans, obviously, have their favorite characters that they use, but that doesn\u2019t stop them from wishing that their main legend had a bit more going for it. Players will regularly put forward their own ideas for buffs \u2013 be it a complete ability rework or slight tweak \u2013 and Respawn does take notice of their calls. The developers recently gave Mirage a long-awaited rework after months and months of requests. Now, a large part of the community has switched its focus to seeing changes for both Octane and Lifeline \u2013 and Respawn are exploring the possibility of making it a reality. Apex Legends game director Chad Greiner told Gamespot that the success of the Mirage rework has made them assess things. \u201cNow that Mirage is sort of off the table and on the bottom for feedback, we\u2019re hearing comments about Octane and about Lifeline.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything substantial right now but there are definitely some options that you can look forward to and things that we\u2019re looking into,\u201d he said, adding that the developers are \u201ctrying things.\u201d However, just when Octane and Lifeline mains can expect to see a change is a different story. Grenier noted in his interview that the Mirage rework was \u201ctricky\u201d and that the developers do have data that shows them which legends are severely underpowered. At first, they were unsure if players would be happy with a Legend receiving a whole new set of abilities, rather than just small buffs and nerfs. But, since feedback to the Mirage changes has been so positive, Lifeline and Octane could be next. Pineda previously said on Twitter that Lifeline is still a top tier character, but \u201ceveryone wants her to be unique and I agree she\u2019s lost some of her shine due to the other Legend buffs.\u201d Just when these changes come could into the fold, though, remains to be seen as the developers are seemingly just in the beginning stages of figuring things out for the two characters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
