Interlocked shields!

Why is nobody talking about Rein and Brigitte interlocking their shields to make a big barrier in the cinematic?
What if that’s a thing in OW2?

i mean, i was
in a discord of friends

forums aren’t the entirety of humans playing this game

“forum”-wise

not sure

what i’ve been thinking of is, what that isn’t all

imagine more types of ability synergies, being pve and all, it could get pretty wild

cinematic’s are not always the same as gameplay though, in the cinematic winston actually killed something

-flashbacks to Reaper grenades-

also, p sure winston threw tracer at him or something

Then maybe brig will finally have a reason to not hog the back line like a coward.

Well the real reason is you’d hear “MY BARRIER CANT-(CRACK)” after 0.3 seconds and Brig would just stand behind Rein

Better question is why Winston didn’t bubble, clearly Silver IMO.

I could see it being a thing in PvE… cool synergies between heroes. Very Avengers-esque, you know, like Cap’s shield paired with Thor’s hammer :man_shrugging:t2:

“Interlock Shields!”

“Our barrier is down”

honestly, that is a pretty neat concept for a hero in this game, though

now with 222, we can’t have 3 barriers, so another barrier tank that feeds from a barrier tank… is… mildly interesting…

they’d just need something else to work with, however, of course, otherwise it’d be garbage to have synergies with one type of hero and not another

assuming they’re not shared

but if they just combined their barriers together, to make a larger one, and shared it, that’s not what would happen

but brig in that situation would end up not doing much besides being a barrier, which is… questionable

I have a feeling there will be a coop skills involved.
I have a feeling there’s Pulse bomb Blizzard!!!
…and I have a feeeeeling they have a shieeeeeld generatooooaaaarrrr!

All this yapping about Brigitte’s shield. Just sounds like a bunch of ppl who don’t know how to play her. Even when they reduced her shield to 200 it was still more than viable. Everyone cant play Moira dps i mean heal. Some characters take actual skill to play
