Oh, that part I’m happy to have changed
I think it is silly for Ashe to be able to farm ult with Bob out. Sure you would likely change how much charge he needed in the first place as part of that, but again… I’d be up for that.
But that wasn’t what OP was complaining about.
But surprisingly enough, Ashe is not the only hero who can farm ult FROM their own ult. Rein is really good at this. If you charge just at the end of shatter, you get like 20% charge by pinning someone. It is super useful.
Sombra too, since you can hack the tank post EMP (it is such a rotten thing to go), they can’t stop you, (since they are EMPed). but now you can farm ult from them.
I mean Sombra is also a DPS, so it isn’t an example of non DPS doing this.
I’ll have to look, I think Lucio / Brig can also get ult while their ult is still winding down, but the effect is still there.
Oh yeah, Winston can do it (kinda) if you use Primal to knock someone off the edge as it is ending, you get their ult charge. I know players who do this on purpose! But the skill needed is really high. They juggle them a little off the edge at the end, and then use the jump recharge from primal ending to get back to land.
I can’t do it, I’m not good enough with Winston.
But yeah, I’d be happy for that change to happen, but the ult charge needed for Bob, would likely be changed as part of it. The lower ranks would be the ones who suffered from it, because they would typically be getting less charge while Bob was out compared to high ranks, and it would be balanced mostly around high ranked play, as overwatch is (with some concessions around stuff which just ruins low ranked play experiences)
