Apex Legends pros call for \u201cworst\u201d Season 14 change to be reversed TSM\/NRG\/Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends pro players Philip \u2018ImperialHal\u2019 Dosen and Christopher \u2018sweetdreams\u2019 Sexton both believe the Season 14 ring damage changes have negatively impacted the game. Season 14 of Apex Legends introduced Vantage, the Kings Canyon map changes, and the huge level cap increase which have all been positively received by the community. However, as always, certain players and pros have criticized some of the additions that were added with Hunted. One of the changes that\u2019s sparked a lot of debate is the increase in zone damage, making it harder to survive outside the ring even at the beginning of the match. Both sweetdreams and ImperialHal dislike this change, claiming it \u201cdoesn\u2019t feel right\u201d and feels \u201cweird\u201d. ImperialHal and sweet dislike Season 14 ring damage changes In the Hunted patch, Respawn decided to increase ring 1 damage from 2 to 3 hp\/tick, making it equivalent to ring 2. This has made it significantly more punishing to be caught in ring 1 at the start of a match and forces players to start rotating earlier. ImperialHal isn\u2019t a fan of the changes as it makes it impossible to spend time crafting after landing, especially if you\u2019re looking to collect all the loot from a POI outside the next ring. As for sweet, he believes the ring changes are \u201ctoo extreme\u201d and thinks \u201cit f**ks with the pacing of the game too much\u201d. Topic starts at 0:43 So far, this zone damage increase has received a lot of criticism so it\u2019ll be interesting to see if Respawn opts to reverse the changes. It\u2019s certainly speeding up the time in which opposing squads run into each other, as players are forced to head into the ring earlier. However, as activities like crafting take an allocated amount of time, this zone change may be discouraging the community from using replicators early in a match.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
