For a character with one of the smallest hitboxes and highest mobility giving her high damage seems very unreasonable and unbalanced and yet she has had it all this time, in one clip she can do a maximum of 480 damage and she empties a clip in 1 second and with a discord on a target she can do 624 damage Max in one clip meaning she can one clip hog, I suggest dropping her critical hit damage from 12 to 9 meaning she can only do a max of 360 in one clip and with discord she can only Max 468, it seems absolutely ridiculous that a character like herself only needs to hit you with a minimum of 17 bullets in a 40 bullet clip to kill you if you’re a squishy target, her role is backline harasser and yet she’s being a backline assassin, destroying squishy targets and she can barely even be countered by mccrees, because at 15 metres she can still eat away at your health and thats far beyond the 7 metre flashbang distance, she has never been a balanced character and yet nothing has been done about her. This character is a joke. She’s only supposed to disrupt backline to draw enemies from the front line to deal with her but instead she’s not disrupting, she’s just straight up killing targets before they can do anything.
Unbalanced game
20 char
I just made an edit, I was in a comp game so I quickly just made the post and write down what had to be said after
Yeah, tracers pretty OP but most players aren’t gonna be good enough to get that crazy potential that she has to 1 clip tanks etc.
I am with you, but dont expect anything, from the forum users. I think everyone except tracer players, understands, that she needs a good dmg nerf.
So yeah, just wanted to say, that you are not alone
Lol at thinking she does 480 per clip
Why don’t you try that in game and see how many clips it takes you to kill a tank?
Yep I agree. Not many people wanted a pulse bomb nerf, and majority of those that did wanted it to be made so it takes longer to charge.
Most people wanted her base weapons nerfed in some way, whether it be spread, reload time, or just damage.
I’ve proposed many times to just try out reducing her max damage per bullet by 1.
She’s a high skill hero with 150 health. The Pulse Bomb nerf is enough, for now.
Stop
The nerf isn’t even live yet
She has no problem killing people with 200 health with one clip. She becoming a little bit of a problem lately.
Wow. How are you getting all head shots.
It never, EVER happens in reality. Even Effect, Soon, SBB and the rest can’t achieve that
Zenyatta can kill every 200hp discorded heroes with one headshot and one body shot. It’s teamwork; ofc it’s powerful
This cannot happen in real life, hog would react fast enough with take a breather.
I suggest you stop doing those pointless mathematics. According to your logic, Soldier 76 can potentially deal 950 damage, and that’s not even counting a potential discord orb.
I shuddered for real. Can you only imagine?
Like…just ew, haha.
She has no problem doing that to people who don’t know how to press their A and D keys, she has no problem doing it to people who spam space because jumping is the easiest movement to track in the game, she has no problem doing it to people who stand still.
Point is, one clipping isn’t nearly as common and simple as this forum full of anecdotal shenanigans makes it out to be.
Not even going to touch OP’s ridiculous post.
Soldier can’t empty his clip in one second, and I was saying maximum damage, as well as him being a much easier target to hit and not having that great mobility, tracer is the hardest target to hit in the game because of tiny hit box and ridiculous mobility, she can “Max” do 480 in one second and with discord “max” one clip hog in one second, she absolutely munches through health even when she just hits the head for a brief moment a lot of health just disappears from squishy targets, at 15 damn metres she is still within one clip range, and even in diamond, I see tracers one clipping all the time, as a character as hard to hit as she is, it’s obvious from a balance perspective that she’s supposed to be a backline harasser and why she shouldn’t be an assassin character, yet she is just melting squishy targets, and she doesn’t even need to use 20 bullets to do this, if she hits all headshots.
Sometimes I wish I could check profiles on mobile. All these people talking about one clipping like it’s easy. I’d love to see their God tier accuracy stats.
Tracer one clips roadhog. You heard it here first folks.
I use Max to show her crazy potential, and to show that she doesn’t even need to hit headshots that much to melt targets, just one very brief moment of contact with the head is all she needs and if you’re a 200 health character you will have lost most of your health and at that point you might as well just give up and let her kill you
Ever been headshot by a McCree?
You know good tracers will sit outside of flashbang range, and give very little time for you to aim for the head but you as a mccree are a sitting duck and even though she is outside of flashbang range she is still within one clip range, you know that right? Balance?
