About this deal

As indicated in an earlier post, there’s a major issue with the Pathfinder. The magazine catch that holds it in place is designed only for newer magazines. In 2019, Nerf added plastic to one surface of the magazine to prevent compatibility with some Dart Zone blasters. Now, however, the Pathfinder cannot use older magazines, as they sit too low in the blaster! It wouldn’t be as bad if Rival magazines were readily available…but right now, they’re hard to find from big retailers. Assuming things stay as they are, Hasbro may have shot themselves in the foot with this one. You can fix the issue, either with 3d printed shims or your own homemade version. But consumers shouldn’t have to do this! This is a huge penalty in User Friendliness. Performance NERF RIVAL ACCU-ROUNDS: The most accurate Nerf Rival rounds, with an improved aerodynamic design and dimple pattern to provide more consistent flight. Compatible with all Nerf Rival blasters Designer note: This is a first step in pushing more team utility for Octane. We have more updates planned but they didn’t make the cutoff for this patch.

Meanwhile, professional bamboozler Mirage (who has often been regarded as underpowered by the Apex community) has finally been given a complete makeover, with new abilities and serious improvements to his existing skills. His tactical ability psyche out, which pops out a decoy, now allows Mirage to control it by having it mimic his movements, and he can now release another decoy which simultaneously removes the previous one. Oh, and the decoys now last for 60 seconds. ADJUSTABLE REAR SIGHT: The rear sight has 2-way adjustment, so you can customize it for improved aim. Line up the rear sight with the front edge-glow sight for the perfect shot The Fate is a Difficult mod that we only suggest for an experienced modder. It requires the removal of the plunger head which is attached with a one-way detent that can easily be damaged. I’m unsure if adding a stronger spring would end up being of any benefit. In any case, magazines are still the main concern. Final Thoughts

Over on r/pathfindermains, the entire subreddit is now filled with memes mourning the death of their favourite character, as many players have either lamented the the harshness of the nerf or stated how they’re giving up on the character entirely. It’s actually pretty funny if this virtual funeral wasn’t at least a little tragic. And, finally, to let players know when they've achieved a successful bamboozle, Mirage's "you got bamboozled" line will now occur when another player shoots a decoy. Now that's far more satisfying. Charge towers are new devices which give a full ultimate charge to nearby legends when activated. As both Skull Town and Thunderdome got destroyed when Loba blew up an underground bunker, there are several new points of interest on King's Canyon, such as Salvage and Offshore Rig.

Designer Note: The hope for this rework is that it gives more depth to Mirage gameplay by giving Mirage players avenues to get better at Bamboozling people. While the arrival of the new legend Loba Andrade and significant changes to the now iconic King’s Canyon map have certainly been the driving force behind players’ excitement for the latest season of Apex Legends, what’s even more interesting to those players that actually pay attention to this stuff are the small changes to the game. The little buffs and nerfs to all the existing legends and weapons, the things that actually fundamentally change the game. While the changes made across the board to Apex Legends were pretty fair, one nerf in particular has sent a wave a sadness rippling throughout the community. Pathfinder has received arguably the harshest nerf in the game’s history, so bad that Reddit is currently holding a memorial of sorts for the beloved character.Designer note: Internal data shows that Gibraltar’s performance in individual fights is in a good place, but we want to bring down his power a bit in team fights. Designer note: this is something that is a bit of an experiment. We will be keeping an eye out to make sure this change doesn’t cause any degenerate player behavior. OPTIMIZED BARREL: The barrel is optimized with streamlined design that's engineered for enhanced performance Fixed a condition where the third character model would be missing on screens with three Legend banners. Accuracy with the new rounds did seem slightly improved. However, at some point, I’ll need to set up an actual test for comparison. Until then, my evidence is strictly anecdotal. In addition, firing at targets at range will still be a challenge, especially outdoors with the wind. Rival balls float, and they’re pretty slow-moving by the time they get that far out. Internals
