So I’ve recently picked up the game after first trying a year and a bit ago. Why is it some games I can melt the enemy then others I’m constantly firing on them only for their HP to slowly trickle down? I notice this a lot playing DPS and Tank and its getting annoying
if the tank has armour, you do alot less damage to them
some tanks that dont have armour has some form of healing that helps mitigate the damage received, such as roadhog using vape whilst taking damage
Might be that they’re getting healed while you’re attacking them.
The game is buggy. I’ve stood next to an ulting Orisa and an ulting Reaper as a Bastion and survived, without anyone healing me (I had a replay code for this but it’s no longer valid).
I get locked in place, stuck on literally nothing, so the enemy can kill me. Probably because the server decided I had died on that spot and told my client to keep me there.
I’ve point-blanked squishes as Bastion and their health doesn’t go anywhere, and when I check the replay there’s no healing going on. I’m guessing when the game randomly picked the hitscan path for each of Bastion’s shots, it just so happened to pick values that didn’t intersect the target’s hitbox. What luck!
On the other hand, I’ve played games where I feel like I have some kind of aimbot going. I just lazily aim toward an enemy and I get nice pingy headshots. Or I’ll somehow survive stuff that makes no sense (like the double ult above), and upon checking the replay it’s not like someone was healing me.
The game basically plays itself.
