HERO UPDATES
ASHE
Ashe is still a bit too powerful, but we’d like to keep her rifle feeling impactful so we’re taking some power out of her Dynamite ability.
- Explosion damage reduced from 75 to 50
BAPTISTE
Baptiste generates a majority of his ultimate charge through area-of-effect healing. As we reduced area healing values recently, we’re also scaling down the cost of his ultimate.
- Ultimate cost decreased 15%
MCCREE
After scaling down the damage output of McCree’s primary fire, we’re looking to give back a bit of power through improvements to his abilities.
- Distance increased 20%
- Stun duration increased from 0.7 to 0.8 seconds
ORISA
Increased projectile speed will help Orisa’s weapon feel more responsive, reducing the need to lead targets. We found that recent adjustments to Orisa’s abilities were more impactful than we originally anticipated and have increased her armor to compensate.
- Base armor increased from 200 to 250
- Projectile speed increased from 90 to 120
ROADHOG
After the last round of shotgun improvements, Roadhog’s Chain Hook combo still wasn’t effective against some of the smaller enemy heroes. This change pulls targets closer to melee range for swifter, more reliable combo execution.
- Now pulls targets 0.5 meters closer (3.5 meters down to 3.0 meters)
