Apex Legends Wattson nerf being looked into
The latest season of Apex Legends kicked off this week, and like any turnover, Legacy hasn’t been without its foibles. One such issue in the multiplayer game is an unexpected nerf to Wattson that’s made some of her techniques a bit useless.
Wattson can activate an electrical fence that, when a player runs through it, causes them to temporarily slowdown. It’s a defense move, and one of the more potent aspects of Wattson’s arsenal. Now, it seems that slowdown has been incidentally taken away. On Twitter, lilakeyLK posted a clip of someone running through Wattson’s fence, and getting the visual part of the effects, but not the speed reduction. A first-person clip was added to demonstrate from a different angle, and yeah, nothing beyond some slight distortion onscreen.
