    Pathfinder doesn't need to be banned from event play

    So, as the title suggests, this post is about the pathfinder in events. Why is he banned? He shouldn't be, and I will make the argument for why he shouldn't be.

    First: Light Step. Literally just means he can't trigger mines or traps, and be detected by electronics, save the Echelon and Vanguard. Sentinel can't spot him, and no one else. Is this useful? Yes. Is it broken in the event modes where those electronics aren't in play and you can't spot people anyway? No. Why is it not broken? Because literally anyone can look at literally anyone else, and spot them, even if marking isn't on. So if marking isn't on, his passive is literally useless, as is the sentinel satcom.

    Second: The crossbow. Is it good? Yes. Is it quiet? Yes. Is a 1 shot kill? Only if you land a headshot. So no, this thing isn't broken for event modes either.

    To summarize, or give the TL;DR, I would say that Pathfinder is currently only being banned from event mode play because "balancing"? Really? If you want to balance it, remove all the healing stuff, and remove hollow point ammo and fighting spirit from perks. Seriously... get it right next time. Pathfinder isn't a gamebreaker.

    banning character choices from certain game modes might make sense for some not others, their logic is not our logic.

    but an undetectable character vs. a detectable character has an advantage, so maybe their choice is made only to make things more equal in their minds....... who knows really.

    every character has access to a silenced handgun, it is underused in my opinion, if you are undetected, take out your pistol and pop a few rounds in a guy and see him run around in circles looking for the shooter...... fun.....
