Catalyst confirmed abilities in Apex Legends
- Tactical, Piercing Spikes – Catalyst throws ferrofluid onto the ground which creates spikes. When enemies walk onto these spikes, they are damaged and slowed. Piercing Spikes has a long range.
- Passive, Barricade – Catalyst can use ferrofluid to reinforce doors and walls. They are vulnerable to bullets or explosives.
- Ultimate, Dark Veil – Catalyst throws ferrofluid which rises to create a permeable wall. Enemies can walk through the wall, however, they will be slowed and will be blinded when they go through the other side. This wall also blocks scan tech and is great to divide up the battlefield.
Catalyst synergies
Because Catalyst's abilities are focussed on CC or controlling the field itself, she does great with defensive or high-mobility characters.
Caustic or Wattson are great for Catalyst as they can use her abilities to reinforce the frontline for any damage Legends.
High mobility Legends such as Octane and Pathfinder are also great with this legend.
Creating a slowdown for the enemies means that faster allies can catch up much easier.
