\n
\n
\n
Adjusted Distance Attenuation on Enemy Footsteps
\n
\n

HERO UPDATES

\n
\n
\n
\n

TANK

\n
\n
\n
\n\n
ORISA
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Terra Surge is a channeled ultimate which cannot be interrupted by most abilities, as it gains the same effects as Fortify. While this makes sense for stuns, Sombra's Hack interrupt shouldn't be negated and now correctly cancels Terra Surge.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Terra Surge
\n
\n
    \n
  • Terra Surge can now be interrupted by Hack

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
RAMATTRA
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Players found that shifting out of Nemesis Form before activating the Annihilation ultimate would fully reset Nemesis Form's bonus armor. To smooth out the gameplay, it now resets the armor health automatically as part of the ultimate activation.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Annihilation
\n
\n
    \n
  • Using Annihilation while in Nemesis Form refreshes your bonus armor
    • \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
ROADHOG
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: The Chain Hook cooldown beginning when the ability started, instead of at the end, caused some confusion when discussing the cooldown since once you can see the timer, it appeared a second shorter (7 seconds) than the actual maximum cooldown. After fixing that, we're reducing the cooldown overall by an additional second to increase the frequency of Roadhog's team utility now that being pulled in by Chain Hook is less deadly.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Chain Hook
\n
\n
    \n
  • Chain Hook cooldown now starts when the ability ends instead of at the start
    • \n
  • Chain Hook cooldown reduced from 8 to 6 seconds
    • \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
WRECKING BALL
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: There is now a hero control option for Wrecking Ball to set a separate aim sensitivity while transformed into a ball as players may want to aim his weapons in first-person and move the camera in third-person significantly differently. In addition, a visual indicator for Grappling Claw has been added to indicate its maximum duration before automatically detaching.

\n
\n
\n
    \n
  • Added the hero-specific option \"Relative aim sensitivity while rolling\"
    • \n
  • Added the hero-specific option \"Relative gyro sensitivity while rolling\" (Nintendo Switch™ platform only)
    • \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Grappling Claw
\n
\n
    \n
  • Added a timeout indicator for Grappling Claw located above the ability icon
    • \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Minefield
\n
\n
    \n
  • Minefield arming time increased from 1 to 1.25 seconds

\n
\n\n
ZARYA
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: A previous change decreased both barrier duration and increased the cooldown at the same time, lowering Zarya's effectiveness more than anticipated. This is a partial reversion to help level it out.

\n
\n
\n
    \n
  • The shared cooldown for Particle Barrier and Projected Barrier reduced from 11 to 10 seconds
    • \n

\n
\n
\n
\n\n
ASHE
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: We want to enable Ashe and B.O.B. to easily assist one another more. B.O.B. now prioritizes targets damaged by Ashe's rifle, which may allow for more flexible Ultimate placement.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
B.O.B.
\n
\n
    \n
  • B.O.B. now prefers to shoot at enemy targets that Ashe damages with her rifle

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
HANZO
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Hanzo has high burst damage potential with Storm Bow and Storm Arrows and strong utility with Sonic Arrow but still underperforms compared to other heroes in the same role. This change increases his survivability without directly improving his strengths.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Lunge
\n
\n
    \n
  • Lunge cooldown decreased from 5 to 4 seconds

\n\n
MEI
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Mei's Blizzard ultimate cast time sometimes led to situations where the animation appeared to have been completed, but there was still additional time that it could get interrupted. This change will help mitigate that feeling without significantly reducing counterplay.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Blizzard
\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
PHARAH
\n
\n
\n
\n

Dev Comment: In addition to rapidly launching her upwards, Jump Jet used to always move Pharah forward a small amount which made the ability feel less responsive when trying to move to the side or backwards. This change now enables a small amount of horizontal momentum in any direction.

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Jump Jet
\n
\n
    \n
  • Jump Jet movement is now influenced by directional inputs

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\n
SOJOURN
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Due to the angle of Sojourn's torso in her default animation stance, her torso hit volume was more difficult to hit compared to similarly sized heroes.

\n
\n
\n
    \n
  • Torso hit volume width increased by 20%

\n\n
BAPTISTE
\n
\n
\n
\n

Developer Comment: Baptiste is capable of potent damage and healing output but often slightly underperforms across many skill levels. This change to the Immortality Field's minimum health threshold will strengthen his utility and enable him to more reliably assist his allies after its effect ends.

\n
\n
\n
\n

Immortality Field
\n
