Some of you may already know about the changes to Revenant Reborn, but that’s not all: the developers have also tweaked some key abilities for other characters in the game. Without any further ado, here's a detailed breakdown of all the Legend changes in Apex Legends Season 18.

Revenant New Class and Abilities

  • Updated class to Skirmisher (was Assault)
  • Passive: Assasin’s Instinct
    • Highlight nearby visible enemies who are low on health. You crouch walk faster and have improved wall climbing.
  • Tactical: Shadow Pounce
    • Unleash a powerful pounce forward. Hold to charge for farther distances.
  • Ultimate: Forged Shadows
    • Forge a shroud of hardened shadows around you that blocks direct damage and regenerates after breaking. Your shadows and tactical are refreshed on knockdowns.

Revenant seems to have a lot more mobility and versatility with his new abilities, especially when it comes to Shadow Pounce and Forged Shadows. I think he will be a great legend for players who like to play aggressively and stealthily, as he can track down low-health enemies, leap across the map, and create a protective shield around him.
