CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR PATHFINDER'S QUEST

Apologies, I know this theory/information isn't new, but I've been driving myself crazy thinking about it since last night so I went digging and found some pretty good stuff. Granted, most of this could just be coincidence, but I wanted to put it all out there, anyways. If I get anything wrong, let me know!!

TLDR: I think Rampart is connected to Viper, either by blood, or her family might have modified Viper's Northstar. Blisk might feel nostalgic and is looking out for her.

1. I believe Rampart is the only Legend on the roster that Blisk recruited, specifically. All other Legends won, or were allowed in due to special circumstances/cheating.

2. Blisk has known about Rampart for a while. When Bangalore approached him in the season 6 loading screen 'The Referral' he tells her he already knew about Rampart. In the same loading screen, he also tells Bangalore he'll be off the grid for a while, so this is right before he went missing for a year. Additionally, he can be seen in the background of this image watching Rampart working in her shop: https://i.redd.it/x8gospl2teh51.jpg

3. In the same image above, Rampart also has Viper's Titan in her shop. Additionally, one of her banners features a Scorch Titan: https://i.redd.it/lgqyhguglph51.png

4. Rampart's in-game teasers include graffiti art of Blisk with the caption "won't let ya down."

5. If I'm going by the daughter theory (which seems a bit of a stretch, to be honest, but): I think Viper is the most likely candidate for who Rampart could be related to. Firstly, it's been theorized for a long time that he survived the Battle of Typhon, given that his pilot helmet remained active after defeat. It's therefore plausible he could have escaped.

6. The fight with Viper takes place in 2715, meaning Rampart would have been 2 or 3 years old at the time.

7. Viper is referenced multiple times by Ash with the line "five by five" during Broken Ghost and The First Ship comics.

8. When meeting for the first time, Rampart specifically is the one who triggers Ash to have a flashback by saying the words "in time." Admittedly, this is connected to Horizon, I believe, however at the end of that same chapter, Ash again repeats the line "five by five" and appears to have gained some of her memory back.

Additionally, it's still unclear why Hammond wanted Ash rebuilt. They took code from her memory banks and then immediately discarded her. Whatever that information was, it

Read me out first; we know that they have the AI to follow the player around subtly (Constant in Sgail) and unsubtly (Stalker in H1 escalations), we also know that they can have have NPCs change path simply based on seeing 47 in a particular room (The Stowaway). It would've been great for them to use this AI to make counter-assassins rather than guards that just have long paths.

Think back to when Hitman has done counter-assassins in the past (Blood Money), they didn't just point a gun at you and tell you to surrender the moment they noticed you, that would make them pretty poor assassins; they were scripted to try lure you to an isolated area then they try kill you without any warning. In Hitman 3 they probably don't need to do the "seduction" thing but they could've had an agent posing as someone asking for help or sell you something, then if you follow them they try shoot you behind a closed door, or they lead you into the sniper's line of sight etc. Have another one who just follows you around like the Colorado Escalation stalker when they notice you and programmed to shoot you if barely any NPCs are around. Stuff like that

I just think it could've been really great to do something properly interesting with the AI rather than just making them glorified guards. Ah well, we can only dream

I was playing a little Apex Legends tonight and got into a lobby with two Apex Predators. All seemed good until we landed, at which point the player "CherryBlossom" insulted me multiple times before calling me a "F****t" (I'm gay lol) and running into battle. They died very quickly after pressing W and shooting before leaving the game. I killed the other two enemies before the remaining Apex Predator (his friend) led me to the entrance of Turbine before jumping off the edge and throwing the game with two squads left.

Here is a video of it: (GeForce Experience auto turned off "Instantly Replay" so I was only able to record everything AFTER he said the slur)

I love Apex but this is just a bad look for the community and the top-tier ranked players though according to someone these are S3 Preds and apparently it was comparatively easy to get Predator at the time which explains a lot. I originally said most of this at the end of the video but my software picked up my PC mic rather than my actual mic so I cut it before then.

EDIT: My Geforce "Instant Replay" was automatically off for whatever reason so I was only able to record afterward. You literally see my report him right when the video starts lmao.

I have recently come up with a, granted far-fetched theory regarding the future of the apex-titanfall lore.

Wraiths Original Dimension

The first theory that I have is that Wraiths original dimension, where void walker wraith currently resides is the same Dimension as the Shadowfall dimension. In the story from the outlands Voidwalker, we see that the IMC is still very much active in this dimension, which could result In a lot of changes from our dimension including Revenant's takeover of the island of kings canyon. The way I see it, this dimension could have mainly diverged from our current one at one specific point:

Operation Fracture

Operation Fracture was a refueling raid where the Militia Battled to capture a fracking plant and siphon fuel for their ship, The Redeye, Ultimately allowing the Militia to survive. In this Dimension I believe that the IMC won the battle destroying the Redeye and killing the Militia infantry. This is the first place that this Dimension would differ from our own resulting In the entire Future panning out differently.

The Battle Of Demeter

The Battle of Demeter was the battle that ended in the destruction of the IMC's main refueling station and cut the IMC off from accessing the Frontier, stranding the remnant fleet and giving the militia a new edge in the frontier war. As a result of Operation Fracture failing, Sarah Briggs would be dead and They would never have met James MacAllen. This would, as a result mean that, The Battle Of Demeter would have never happened, meaning that the IMC would control the entire Frontier and that the Militia could barely have a standing, if they were even around.

The Death Of Jack Cooper

At some point in titanfall 2, BT states that Cooper was present at Operation Fracture as a rifleman. With the failure of Operation Fracture, it is extremely likely that Jack Cooper would not have survived. This would not only mean that the entire of Titanfall 2 wouldn't have happened, but it would also mean that if the militia was still around then they w
