Reinheart movement speed

[BigDrEAMZ-11537]

Reinheart movement speed. I have notice when moving forward while swinging on a player that is backing up I am not gaining one bit of ground. Also when backing with shield up I am a completely vulnerable baby jesus turtle!..?

No seriously I can watch a player run at an angle running out of their way (as if they cant walk through the shield) ! Go all the way around it to finish off a standing alone tank after team wipe.

Another huge problem is Rein trying to advance with his team with his shield raised. He is a big brainless oof! He wants to protect his team but he’s way to slow to keep up pace with the team in order to shield them. This is a huge disadvantage for a team trying to move forward.

So two things can happen here. Drop shield to try and keep up with team and get sniped or something… or leave shield up and your HEALER or another player (mind you that is walking normally) gets out in front and gets killed because the shield guy is I dunno wearing ankle weights or something .

I mean I get it I love the look of his big strong walk. But in the heat of battle that walk is starting to look like a big saggy baby diaper that needs to be changed! I am being funny but this is very serious. Thanks for reading! … GJ TEAM!

Have you considered separating your thoughts into paragraphs?

Thanks for reading

I… uhm… didn’t read it.

I just wanted to let you know that using paragraphs would be nice.

Well considering this is the first topic I have ever started. I guess I will take it as an early lesson learned. I underestimated the seriousness of the readers. Thanks for the advise.

As a Sym player who runs into Reinhardts who actually know how to be aggressive, he is faster than you while swinging if you’re backing up.

And if your team is running in front of your shield and you’re not in a position to lower it, then they’re the ones at fault, not Reinhardt.

Reinhardt:

Barrier Field

• Self-Slowing effect reduced to 30%, down from 50%

Steadfast

• Reduces enemy Slow effects by 30%.

Comments: The goal of these changes are to make it so that Reinhardt has a much easier time gap-closing onto DoubleBarrier compositions. And once in close range, Reinhardt is uniquely suited to do attacks that ignore barriers entirely; While providing the sustained firepower needed to kill a Tank. Overall, a very small portion of the playerbase is good at Dive compositions; When compared to Bunker compositions, Reinhardt compositions involve more movement, and less time waiting for barriers to break before gunplay can begin.

Same answer to you as I gave Lycaon.
