Apex Legends devs are confident Seer won\u2019t overshadow Bloodhound, Crypto Respawn EntertainmentSeer is here in Apex Legends Season 10, and the Recon Legend has a lot of overlap with some of the existing picks like Bloodhound or Crypto. However, Respawn has assured players the three Agents have enough differences between them. Seer\u2019s introduction in Apex Legends Season 10 brings a whole new level of intel gathering. Some players have likened him to being a Crypto drone, without the droning, or a Bloodhound with a more permanent scan. Respawn has assured players that while Seer is similar in principle, in practice, he won\u2019t overshadow the two Recon specialists. Seer gameplay lead Travis Nordin confirmed as much in an interview on his release. \u201cThe comparisons are always going to be there \u2014 he\u2019s a recon legend like them. There\u2019s similarities, but in practice, he definitely plays a bit differently,\u201d Nordin said. \u201cI think both Crypto and Bloodhound can guide you towards players, either Crypto scouting with the drone or Bloodhound following those breadcrumbs to find out where they go. Whereas Seer is a much more kind of close-quarters Recon information character.\u201d Seer\u2019s heartbeat sensor might be able to track enemies up close like a Crypto drone \u2014 even through walls \u2014 but you don\u2019t get direct information on their location. Plus, his scan is more of a beam compared to Bloodhound\u2019s cone which makes it \u201charder to hit,\u201d Nordin said. However, the effects \u201care a bit more potent\u201d to counterbalance that difficulty. \u201cThe second scan reveals health bars, which will be useful if your team is calling out \u2018they\u2019re one shot,\u2019 you can actually know if it\u2019s a one shot or not,\u201d he said.

And that\u2019ll interrupt any shield batteries or rezzing or basically any long press activities that the players are doing.\u201d There\u2019s also some counterplay to Seer that exists that doesn\u2019t really affect Bloodhound or Crypto. Seer\u2019s ultimate can be destroyed by an EMP, limiting his effectiveness in late-games against the Recon Legend. Even Mirage can bamboozle the ultimate with his own. Plus, the best trick of them all: If you don\u2019t want to be scanned by Seer, just stop moving or shooting. Sure, you become a sitting duck, but ultimately you don\u2019t get spotted. \u201cYou just kind of get these footstep VFX and a diamond lock on, so there\u2019s some counterplay there as the enemy: if you stop moving or if you are healing you\u2019re not going to be revealed.\u201d All these little measures of counterplay make sure that Seer is different enough from all the other Recon Legends, while still filling his own niche in the game. While there\u2019s concerns his kit will be totally broken, ultimately only time will tell about Seer\u2019s place in the tier list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
