A full second at 100 charge is 190, at 80 charge it's 171.
Per round that is 9.5 at 100 and 8.55 at 80.
It's still a lot of damage.

Doesn't it decay faster now tho?

I've gotten to the point where I can only play this game stoned. It's amazing what being high does to your reflexes in this game lol
According to the patch notes, no.
I believe she works on a 1%:1 ratio. So at 100% she's basically double her normal damage.
95 per second with particle cannon becomes 190 per second at 100%, so 171...though that's assuming she's static at that percent which doesn't really happen makes tracking her DPS hard. I'm not sure what the damage on her alt fire is.
But basically she still will do a shitload of damage.

Hmm, it is, but she has dmg decay to worry about, so I dunno how that would translate to how she'll play out live.
I think a better question would be what's her damage going from 80-60 compared to going 100-80, or is it not as relevant as I think it is?
No, we just play on PC.
She'll still be strong, but I'd rather they buff others than directly nerf her.

I won't complain about zaryas nerf. It's super easy to get her at 100 and maintain it. Two encounters and I'm super charged.

I mean, why would you play it any other way.
I recommend a monster or your preferred energy drink for a wombo combo.
Oh ok, seen it mentioned earlier...placebo I guess.

Might just be me, but Mercy was sorta pinned as the 'premier' single target healer. If they want Ana to compete with that then buff Mercy, but I don't think they should really buff single target healing more than what Mercy has. I would like to see Res (and Teleporter) grant some brief invincibilty to the people revived. At least give the revives a chance to avoid the ult-ening after the Res.
I think Torb turrets need more health and more DPS overall. Lvl 1 turret is basically useless and when the enemies are already there they just get destroyed and don't really amount to anything.
D.Va needs to compete with Zarya's niche instead of Winston. His role is pretty fringe anyway, we don't need D.Va cutting into his usage. How to accomplish this? Iunno...

I swear to god this game is programmed to put you on bad teams when you are on tilt. Decided to stay up late and play one more game after a close loss. Played out of my skin as Tracer and got 4 golds but still got beat 3-0 on Illios. Soloed 3/4 people multiple times before dying, feeling good, surely the team will be able to cap the point after that. Nope, most of them just died...

10% healing reduction with amp it up.
So like, 36HPS instead of 40HPS.
Which is like, why?

We lost this round on Eichenwalde. But I got a POTG I can treasure forever.

My only regret is that I didn't teabag or spray him.

Every little bit helps. It adds up.

Dva is a lot of fun so far. Her health seems to go down insanely fast. I'm guessing it's the huge headshot hit box.
Congrats?

Does anyone know if the XP rate is different for QP and CP? I feel like I get less in QP despite winning more matches more frequently compared to CP.

A CP match last twice as long, and so the "match completed" bonus is higher.

Probably not anytime soon.
Considering these changes are meant to be "out there" and adjusted over longer period of time I wouldn't expect balance patch for several weeks, at least.

The Discord orb going through Dva's defense matrix is bull.

The ult change is just more dancing around the issue of having ult charge drop on death which would fix a lot of the games problems. Making the charge rate slower overall will just make people play even safer and utl showdowns more critical.
well i mean...................................... he can infinitely reapply it so not sure what youre looking for in this instance balancewise

Uh what? Ult charge drop on death sounds like you might as well not have ults in the game unless I'm misreading you.

Dva would still have a short bit of time to step out of the line of sight or other side of the payload with the shield up.
Instead of throwing up the matrix and knowing no matter what after the shield ends you are done for, its impossible for others to not hit her, Dva's so large the discord orb itself is a death sentence

Kill Mercy, she cant come back and rez her team because her ult will drop 
DD.
DD.The discord orb getting eaten up by Zarya's shielding is bull.

Game revolves way too heavily around ults and comboing them. In most team fights you can pretty much guess outcome based on what heroes have ult ready going in and who uses when and in what order. Basically simple set of chess piece moves and if one move is out of order or forced into wrong spot you most likely lose team fight.
Bursts of action which can get predictable and boring.

It wouldn't because of how powerful good trades would be. Same reason in TF2 a scout can suicide dive a medic to create an advantage. However in overwatch if you did the same to a mercy and you killed her too early, you can sometimes wind up helping her to "hide" when the full team fight goes off and so she's back in time for a big rez. This is extremely counter intuitive but it's how overwatch functions as an ult spamming game.
Having ults drop on death creates pressure on both teams to disallow each other to "farm" charge. It encourages more fighting with regular abilities and decreases the reliability of ults.

Well I can definitely see why people play Dva so much despite being lower tier. Lots of fun. That faster moving while shooting would be great.
You PC people need to get on it with the impressions for us peasants.
