Description of Apex Legends Update: Season 6 Armor Change Reversal
Butcher79
Respawn Entertainment made a complete overhaul of armor health in Season 6, returning it to its previous values following player feedback.
At the start of Season 6, Apex Legends made some major changes to armor, making all defenses on the map evolve, as well as reducing the amount of health for each level of armor added.
This greatly impacted gameplay as it reduced the time to kill (TTK) across the board. This immediately split the community, and in response to feedback, the decision was reversed.
Jason McCord of Respawn explained that they originally made the decision during internal testing, but once it came out, player feedback forced them to rethink.
Error correction
This update also includes a number of bug fixes that should address some of the major community issues since the launch of Season 6.
This includes a very nasty bug that caused Loba's teleport ability to not work, mostly at World's End, as in many cases he simply wouldn't teleport her.
There is also a fix for an exploit that allowed place the Gibraltar dome on top of the Rampart minigun , which made the combo very powerful.
