Reason I don't like Limbo is that whenever I'm playing with him on the team I always feel like his abilities get in my way. They may have useful side-effects, that's trie. On paper he recovers energy, creates a nullify zone, can buff or debuff allies and targets, and can be quite literally invulnerable, recovering energy faster than he spends it...

In practice I find that the bubble means I can't use rifles, melee has this glitchy game of "will it hit" as I pass back and forth around the bubble trying to hit things, We tend to miss a ton of drops and take longer doing mobile defense, and even with the least offensive colours I actually find being inside the void incredibly tough on the eyes, and that's with all the glare and bloom effects off.

I'm also not too fond of just how his abilities are "effective". like the Mirage+Simulor combo there's no question that something like banishing a rescue target is effective, but it just breaks the game in a way that's not really that fun. I was just in a sortie where Limbo sat in rift walk and just kept the target banished, which made the mission just a glorified exterminate. Effective? Yes. but sapped pretty much any urgency out of it.
