However, Respawn are already considering nerfs \u2014 if players want them. Revenant mains had plenty to be happy about in the Genesis Collection update for Apex Legends. Not only did the robot get a handy buff to his climbing ability, he netted himself an heirloom too. However, while Respawn can\u2019t take the heirloom away, they\u2019re keeping an eye on his power after the climbing buff has seen Revenant players scale buildings and prey on unsuspecting opponents a little too easily. While the developers believe the Legend is in a decent spot, lead game designer Daniel Z. Klein is listening to the community\u2019s reaction to the change, and may implement a slight nerf if the climb becomes too problematic. It fits with Revenant\u2019s theme of being an assassin to try and be as quiet as possible while climbing, however Respawn will \u201cabsolutely increase the volume\u201d if the climb sound is too quiet, and his win rate climbs too quickly. The floated change was rather controversial when it was posted on Reddit, with many players asking for the devs to perhaps make it even quieter. Is Revenant\u2019s super climb too quiet?

It\u2019s still too early to tell how effective the small change has been. It doesn\u2019t rule out the fact that Respawn are looking at the potential for a change \u2014 if player consensus swings \u2014 but for now, you can happily climb quietly, before launching onto your enemies with that sick heirloom scythe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends devs will nerf Revenant climbing if it\u2019s too powerful Respawn EntertainmentRevenant\u2019s climbing abilities were drastically improved in the Apex Legends Genesis Collection update, allowing the robot to scale skyscrapers across all the Outlands.
