F tier is not a good place
It would be only reliable for other players on the field, sym would be unprotected
Torb still needs some work like Reaper, Mei and Hanzo are getting.
I think it would be awesome if Sym’s turrets could link together to make some type of hardlight bridge or barrier.
sorry, here is the rest
Thanks for clearing that up, but photon-barrier is extremely weak. A few shots and its down. Adding a few more health to it seems perfect for protecting herself and her team. That would still place her in a defensive role though
That would take up too much space/time for sym, and others on the field
Thats the whole Zarya thing again… not really liked.

What about if she places a turret down that creates an pyramid shaped barrier around it with x amount of health?
Most likely an a Defense/ Support path.
I hope they’re exploring more on how Symmetra can support her team with her utility; aka her constructs. She’s designed to be a builder type hero so I’d guess something along the lines of building constructs to support her team via bridges, turrets shields or whatever they can come up with that works.

It would still take to much time and would seem fair to other players not playing sym… This would also give other players a higher ground which is also unfair. But a bigger turret would just give her a molten core type turret. Which is unfair also

Mega Turret…Thought of this too as an ult… but it’s basically Path 4.

barrier is a tank ability imo, only tanks and sym have barriers, mei block things with her ice wall, its not a friendly barrier.
Sym’s gun: offense (her gun cant heal like ana or CC like Mei so its offensive)
turret: defense
barrier: tank
ult: support
she is a specialist but in ow i would say she is defense - support hybrid
people argue about her role because she cant heal
Brigitte can tank a lot of damage but no one argue that she isnt support because she can heal
most people still think support = heal but it isnt. I say sym can protect her ally is a support mechanic

She is more of a defense/support with way many more defense aspects
What are you guys thoughts on Path 3? Revive Path (Would be the hardest but wields the best result.)
so buffing her utility is the best way, make her the best utility support in the game

like “All allies are instantly respawned when the Teleporter is online”? yea sure
This wouldnt play out well. Its also unfair to have two people with the ability to rez. Plus seeing how fast her ult gets, you get a rez every 2-3 mins. Then everyone is going to be playing sym for the wrong reason
Yeah it’s tough to think of a strong but fair concept around her. I think you guys have some great ideas though. Hopefully with good community feedback and Blizzards ability to make some awesome things happen we shall see a more active Symmetra with a fun play style.
Reminder, allies usually die anyway if it was all.
But Yeah I get your points, but I did point out, it would lead to Mercy reworks as well.
(Mercy could be the “someone else”)(Aka, she could be losing her revive.)
