Do Golden Guns/Weapons do anything in game?

I was wondering if golden guns/weapons do anything in game. I’ve seen people with golden weapons so I wanted to get my own. But, I don’t want to work hard to get them and get nothing out of it.

They are only Cosmetic, sry

Thanks! I just wanted to know just in case.

Fake News: you do 10x more damage, and get auto aim

Nothing, they are purely cosmetic items as the rest of the goodies for the heroes of the game. Its just to have something special for your favorite hero that requires dedication to get the necessary points.

They intimidate, they destroy opponent’s confidence.

Winston’s golden gun lets you aim automatically, it’s pretty OP for a cosmetic

Symmetra’s golden gun too, I have it and I hardly miss the enemy

Has anyone seen Moira’s golden “gun” in-game? Is it noticeable? I feel like you won’t be able to even really see them.

I looked at them. They are barely noticeable because her sleeves cover most of them. And no one in game can see them unless they look closely.

If you collect them all people will finally respect you. Jk that wouldn’t happen.

They are cosmetic as mentioned.

An interesting side-point is they can fuel toxicity if someone is trying to give you a hard time as having a golden weapon generally shows you ‘like’ the hero you’re playing.

I throw golden weapons on heroes I could care-less about playing.

Sort of thinking my next golden weapon will go to Torb, I have already have Zen’s golden nutz so now it’s time for Torbs golden hammer, memeing is the only right way to use golden guns.
