Whether or not the nerf brings balance is of secondary importance IMHO.
What matters most is that grappling is fun(arguably the most fun ability in Apex), and reducing its use is to reduce fun.
Not a good direction to go.

Bingo. Has nothing to do with what character is OP. It's about fun. I play pathfinder because that's what's fun for me. Pathfinder is the game for me, I dont play anyone else. If I were to play a character just because they are OP I'd pick gibby, caustic, wraith or even bang. Id mop up if I commited to one of them. But I'm not here to complain about character balancing. Im legitimately a little sad, because Apex isnt as fun for me now. So I'm here to support the original poster and all those who know this is just wrong.
Making decisions in this game based on competitive play is a bad idea. It's not a very good platform for competitive let be real. Theres far too many random variables and factors. Far more people play it casually and only play ranked to get the stupid badge. No one I know enjoys ranked yet they play it just for that. Dont try to be something your not

@LordloshBang smh. Every other legend has function in doors. Name one who doesn't, I'm waiting. Maybe think before posting this time. And saying caustic is useless outdoors? Seriously? Please bro. The more you talk its apparent the less you know.

If I had a nickle for how many times someone complained about pathfinder running away and escaping, I'd have zero nickles. Who cares. It's not like you got stuck in his gas, cant see or move and get fired back to lobby. Fight him later when he comes back. I love it when a path escapes. Because I know it's not that easy like people who dont play him think, and I look forward to meeting later in the battle. And most likely if they ran away their team is dead and you will easily outman them. And this rarely happens anyways! Most attempts at escape fail and that's a fact.
What people actually complain about in my experience is the servers, sound/hit reg, Caustic and gibby.
The only thing that was OP was path with gold helmet I'll give you that.

And yea, let me push someone far away on my own, probably Into a whole team with out mine. Yes I'm sure the other team loves that, I know I do. Please launch at me pathfinder, immediately regret your decision.

If it was single player game, this could be true, fun would be fundamental, but when we talk about a competitive multiplayer game, balance is always going to be the first thing to go.
Also it may be fun for you, but not fun for your opponent.
Wh0FqRted, you obviously don`t know a s**** man. Games are always balanced at highest possible level, not on a noob level, otherwise a game would be mess.
If you don`t give a crap about ranked i`m okay with it. But there is a plenty of tournaments at Apex Legends, and for me the competitive level here at Apex Legends is great.
As far as the stupidity goes with indoor/outdoor, most of your game going to be outside anyway. Actually you need to use your legend to his strength, otherwise its your problem and you are playing bad, not that the legends are lacking.
And how Caustic is not useless on outdoor? Explain it to me ? Everyone stated that. Streamers, pro everyone.
There is a place called a "Bunker" you heard of him ? You know what everyone say about it ? That is a Caustic place.
Caustic strength is in indoor or tight places.
A lot of legends abilities are useless indoor, just like Path. Wraith for example. What you going to do in a tight house with her? Put a portal or use her phase ?
What you going to do with Octane on indoor? With Mirage? With Bangalore? Gibralter strength is not for indoor as well.
Only Caustic and Wattson are good on tight places if enemies are rushing you.
But with Path you can always open a door and escape, you get that?
