(Thanks to this, I have thought of this: :female_sign: Sym Buff Idea: Make the Flying part of the Turret a Photon Barrier)
I think Sym is still missing that essential part of that kit, the Photon Barrier. She needs that Barrier to combo with the rest of her kit.
Protecting Turrets
Shielding herself. (like she does in lore)
Aiding Allies from a small bit of damage if needed.
Blocking line of sight from Snipers.
And finally combining it with her Alt Fire and and Primary.
I would like to add it back to Sym’s Kit but also while keeping everything she got.
(It would even combo more with her new kit, Teleporter, flying turrets, and of course the other wall.)
The Barrier can give her precious seconds, so her shields (hp) can recharge. (Which is pretty vital.)
(Mostly because people are really touchy on not losing anything already.)
So please is there are way?
Edit Answer by Kyleesie: "Personally, I totally agree with this.
I think the ideal implementation would be to make it function similar to Moira’s orb deployment. Press the skill button to choose between firing a Damage Sentry Turret or a Barrier Sentry Turret. They’d have to have different cooldowns or different supply, but since the original barrier was originally projected by a flying turret, this mechanic just makes the most sense.
If they do bring the personal barrier back though, I think they should change the shape of it so it’s more similar to Orisa’s barrier (a half dome that can also block damage from the sides, and not just from the front).
Also, I think they should keep the Sym 3.0 ult, but change the name to Infinity Barrier (which honestly makes more sense), and name the personal barrier Photon Barrier.
Easy. Done "
