A member of the original Apex Legends roster, Pathfinder is definitely one of the most iconic characters in the Outlands. Not only that but the Forward\u2019s Scout popularity is also reflected in his incredible pick rate, which sits at an impressive 9.2% in Season 14. Despite this, Respawn didn\u2019t feel the need to make any changes to Pathfinder\u2019s kit in the Beast of Prey Collection Event, so no buffs or nerfs were mentioned for him in the patch notes. However, after jumping into a game after the Collection Event, Pathfinder mains quickly realized that he\u2019d been hit with a secret nerf. Pathfinder hit with secret nerf in Beast of Prey update Discovered and showcased by Apex Legends YouTuber Skeptation, it seems Respawn has nerfed Pathfinder\u2019s zipline Ultimate. The Forward Scout can no longer bounce between double zip lines, an advanced movement mechanic that a lot of Pathfinder mains used to avoid enemy fire and make outplays. While before you could maintain your momentum going forward and jumping between both lines, now attempting to do the technique will stop you in your tracks by pushing you into the air. There was no mention of this nerf in the Beast of Prey patch notes, so a lot of Pathfinder players are extremely frustrated and confused about why the devs would remove this. There\u2019s no denying this is a niche mechanic and its removal will only affect dedicated Pathfinder mains, but taking away any technique from a Legend\u2019s kit is a huge deal for those who have mastered them completely. It\u2019s possible this is a mistake from Respawn similar to the accidental removal of tap-strafing in the past. If that\u2019s the case, hopefully, the devs will roll out a patch in the near future to resolve the issue. However, if this was a deliberate nerf, it\u2019s definitely not going to go down well with the huge community of Pathfinder mains who love pushing his kit to the limits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players find secret Pathfinder nerf that must be a mistake Respawn EntertainmentPathfinder has been secretly nerfed in the Apex Legends Beast of Prey update, and it involves his fan-favorite zipline Ultimate.
