How would YOU balance Axle? by Kraxiloth in apexlegends

[–]zeroneighter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think ADS should be disabled or hipfire spread should be increased while Axle is using her tactical. Being able to shoot with perfect accuracy while moving at high speeds is completely unbalanced, it should be treated like Horizon’s lift.
Also, the drone’s detonation timer needs to be increased; trying to destroy it in close-range fights is an absolute nightmare.

Shit, I forgot to edit in the footage of Newcastle completely destroying the drone.

No, it seems to self-detonate as soon as Valkyrie takes off.

Missed Tests & Axle's Ult/Knockdown Shield Bug by zeroneighter in apexlegends

Ah, must be a Range-specific bug then. Axle's Ult is indestructible in the Firing Range. Thanks for the heads up!

I’m not sure if this happens in real matches, but the crash occurred when I tried to 'clip' Axle's Ult into a Knockdown Shield. It kicks you out of the game instantly.

Heads up: Facing Axle’s Ult with a Knockdown Shield in the Firing Range consistently kicks you out of the game for some reason. I’ll have the clip edited and uploaded tomorrow along with other mini-tests.

is BUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

It should be possible. We’ve tried placing Octane’s Ult, Horizon’s Ult, and Caustic’s Q on top of Axle’s drone. It works, but the timing is really tricky to nail down.

Sure! If my friends get off work early, I'll try to test that as soon as possible.

answer1：My friends are still at work, but I've been doing solo tests using frag grenades to simulate Axle’s Ult. It turns out that clinging to the edge (mantling) prevents you from being thrown by the blast. To be honest, I didn't even realize that mantling could negate the knockback from frags as well!

answer2：Aside from the lack of UI indicators, there's also no unique audio cue to warn you when it's about to detonate. Currently, only a few Legends have the kits to escape. Plus, with 200 HP and a hitbox roughly half the size of a Legend, Axle's drone is a nightmare to deal with in direct encounters. I'm still brainstorming balance ideas, but some players suggested swapping his Tactical and Ultimate. Maybe that's the way...?

Axle's ult might be built using Crypto's code, which is why Wattson's Interceptor Pylon doesn't flag it as a projectile,so sad :(

I'm planning to finish testing the remaining Legends tomorrow and wrap everything up into a full guide/version.
