Seer has recently received a rework/nerf that affects his passive, tactical, and ultimate abilities. Firstly, his passive, Heartbeat Sensor, has had its range reduced from 75m to 50m, with a significant reduction in the initial heartbeat delay. Moving on to his tactical, Focus of Attention, its range has also been decreased to 60m from 75m, but its firing speed has increased by approximately 30%. The Heal Cancel, Revive Cancel, and Respawn Beacon Interaction Interrupt have been removed, and the scan time has been reduced to 2.5s from 8s. Moreover, the scan once again includes a full body highlight, and enemies hit by Focus of Attention are now slowed for 2.5s. The silence time has been increased to 10s, up from 1.75s. When Seer silences enemies, they are now also highlighted with a threat outline to Seer and his teammates, but only when they have line of sight.
Lastly, Seer's ultimate, Exhibit, has gone through a few changes with a throw range reduced from approximately 50m to 15m. The Diamond Scan Markers on enemy movement have been completely removed. Exhibit will now only show the footsteps of players moving within the zone, and Diamond Markers will only appear with enemy gunfire for 1.25s. These changes aim to balance Seer's abilities and make them more effective. However, it also aims to make him less of an overpowered character in Apex Legends.
What legend is he comparable to now?
1. Bloodhound
2. Revenant
3. Bangalore
4. Horizon
Seer is now somewhat comparable to Bloodhound since they both have abilities that allow them to track enemy movements. However, Bloodhound's abilities are more focused on tracking and detecting enemies, while Seer's abilities provide more information about an enemy's location and actions. In terms of playstyle, Seer is still quite distinct from Bloodhound and has a unique set of abilities that set him apart. Therefore, Seer cannot be seen as a direct replacement for Bloodhound.
Seer shares some similarities with Revenant since they both have abilities that can interrupt enemy movements and skills. However, Revenant is more focused on disabling and eliminating enemies, while Seer is more focused on providing information and strategic advantages to his team.
Seer's abilities are not very similar to Bangalore's, but he shares her high mobility playstyle. Bangalore is a legend that has abilities used to disorientate enemies and get the upper hand during fights, while Seer's abilities are more focused on providing valuable information. Bangalore typically excels at close-range combat, while Seer can be more effective at medium to long range.
Horizon is a legend that has the ability to manipulate gravity in a particular area. While she has some similarities with Seer in regards to deploying an ability that can affect an area, Seer is more focused on tracking and providing information, while Horizon has a focus on mobility and repositioning. In terms of playstyle, they are quite different characters.
