Is Zarya affected by the new shield/HP/armor changes?

Hello. This is my first post. I don’t have PC so I can’t play on the PTR, but I am curious if the new changes to Armor/Shield/HP Priority affects Zarya. Previously, Zarya (and Zen) would take damage to their shields first, before their HP, allowing them to take some damage and then disengage and gain back their shields. I am wondering if, with the current PTR changes, Zarya and Zen now take damage to their HP first?

Basically instead of this:

1. Sound Barrier takes damage
2. Shields take damage
3. Armour from Rally takes damage
4. Health takes damage

It’ll be this:

1. Sound Barrier takes damage
2. Armour from Rally takes damage
3. Shields take damage
4. Health takes damage

Unnecessary.

Its such a good change… It was quite stupid how the shield based heroes got so …powerful with that armor on them.

Well “Thank you so much!” Was only 18 characters. Get off my post if you’re gonna say some stupid stuff like this.

just like your own comment
