Others chimed in with ideas for more Legends that incorporates their unique Tactical Abilities, such as having Lifeline use one of her D.O.C. Heal Drone’s tentacles to attach to a fallen troop in order to revive them.

Though some of the most intriguing concepts integrate the Legend’s characteristics, like one user’s idea for Gibraltar to hoist up downed allies and smack them on the back while saying: “no time for rest bruddah.”
Some ideas made a good attempt at repurposing Finishers already in the game such as Octane’s Full Throttle move, but with a twist that would see the Adrenaline Junkie give teammates “five fast ass kicks to the person’s chest” in order to help them up.

While varying revive animations would be great for different Legends, one fan warned that any new styles would have to be tamed in approach: “changing the animations too much could cause problems, like people seeing you around a corner with this certain animation, but not the other one, some animations being harder to hit etc.”
That’s a great point for the developers to consider, since it seems like some people are really loving the idea of new revive animations in Apex Legends.
