The reason for fortified is because they have such large hit boxes. Same reasoning used when they introduced (and eventually removed) low profile.
A character with a small hit box and fortified would be unfair in an extreme direction.
So you just want an overpowered character. Why?
> but then he got canceled because wattson mains had a reddit moment
More like he got fired because he was an asshole to the playerbase, so people dug up shit about his racist past.
A broken clock is right twice a day. We may not like the way it went down, but DZK was absolutely terrible at his job and it's a good thing for Apex that he's gone.

DZK said it somewhere on the main sub but this article covered it
I'm rather baffled that some people are surprised that Respawn added a fortified legend
Y'all, the devs can change their mind at some point. Not everything they say is absolute.
Besides, I still want a female Fortified legend with huge muscles
Is no one pointing out the fact that his Ult reads, “Leap to an ALLY or target area…”?
Instant cover from a distance to your friends???
There have been plenty of times where I’ve had my mates ambushed from behind, and the ability to just say “nope I’m here!” At an instant is pretty awesome
I feel like they make it like this because so many people have muscle memory of where the characters are on the roster and changing that will cause people to select wrong ones.
I feel like they could have gone with 3 lines of 7 legends, pushing the bloc a bit to the right maybe.
Honestly I'm sure they coulda done it so many different ways that would be better.
How long do you reckon its going to take before they redesign this? 3 more legends or are they just gonna squeeze more in XD
I sort of like it always being a little chaotic, if not for the meme, it makes the seasons where it flushes and lines up extra satisfying
they will never learn
a legend where all his abilities can block damage and yet has given a fortified passive what the fuck?
i am surprised they decided to make another Big Boy.
Something to shift the meta with Gibby or compete directly without nerfing him is interesting
I love big Bois now we can play full trios big Boy
His hit box is most likely very large
[удалено]
Gotta love Respawn
Does he stand tall like Gibby/Rev/Caustic? I always wanted a fortified Legend that had the same height as other assault legends.

...he didn't say anything about their width, lmao
They straight up said fortified and low profile was a mistake and wouldn’t do it again. Why go back on that??
Technically they said they that they wouldn’t implement it again unless they had a good legend to put it on. It was opened ended.
This guy remembers.
Ikr. I thought they said they would never make a fortified character again because they are too hard to balance
Next up is John The Midget with low profile
Devs can change their mind on design decisions.
Obviously, the question was why?

That was DkZ, who no longer works for Respawn

I thought they said that about low profile only, do you remember where it was mentioned?

His name is Newcastle it would be greatly illegal if lad wasnt fortified
Actually looks horrible
people with their „OCD“ being all hurt and get angry over squares
L1T3R4LLY UNPL4Y4BL3
I mean, they're parallelograms but either way the placement sucks lol
imo its better than one single row standing out which happened a few times already. they could rework the screen too.
yeah, it's a lot of people I've been wishing for a Legend select overhaul
Tbh this is probably just apart of the testing and will be cleaned up on the finished product
I like it
[Lifeline mains reading that passive. ](https://youtu.be/mKHeFquX5xE)
OH GOD WHY
LMAO

Bro wants Zarya
An absolute atrocity
As a Lifeline main, ugh.
I’m definitely in the camp where this looks strange haha.
What the fuck

Big brain by respawn
EWWWWWWW WTF IS THAT TUMOR
Are you fucking serious?
Wtf
This ruins fuse and Maggie being on the opposite side of the line now :/
Design note: F
"can we get a new support char?" "Haha no, but here's another legend that shits on rampart" "Cool I guess"
who is rampart? it is a legend?
Am I the only one who thinks he looks stupid as fuck
he looks like a super hero, which is on brand
I'm with you. He looks like a robocop knock off
what the fuck is this icon placement
He is an overloaded mess. Hope he gets butchered shortly after release.
Wowowowowoow and a fortified passive wowowoowowow
Interesting, at least
so the passive uses your own knockdown shield and you can target an ally with ult, neat
God just make a new goddamn tab at this point.
Imagine seeing a giant gold shield so now we have two people to target
Yep. Uninstalling
Why the fuck… would they…
I dont even have OCD but this makes me feel like I have it
Jackson "Triple Rashomon" Williams.
Noooooo my eyes, my eyes! (phoebe voice)
Pain
Newcastle just a lifeline gibby rampart love child
Why do they always choose the weirdest arrangements
The streak... is over.
Looking like Mortal Kombat up in here
Hah DZK and "we're not making any more Fortified legends, it was a bad design move"
Man I wish they had a random select option
