Rocket Barrage is the Worst Ult in the game

You’re guaranteed to die unless you have a Zarya bubble, it won’t kill anything unless you’re point blank, and Pharah’s self-damage is way too high.

They NEED to do something with it. Allow it to be canceled, let her strafe around like McCree and Sigma get to, and speed up its rate of fire.

On a positive note, THANK YOU for the jetpack fuel buff. She SORELY needed it.

yea most dps ults are bad without team work

make sure to ask your team for resources, a lot of zar so either combo with her or just ask for bubble

if you have an ana nano barrage is pretty outrageous and if your aware you just point at something and delete them

i play pharah to a masters-low GM level, pharah was already good before the recent buff and the fuel change pushes her to being a downright strong character in all aspects, her ultimate is among the better DPS ults in the game

please learn how to play a character properly before asking for them to be buffed, YSNZA streamed himself getting top 10 on 5 different accounts at the same time with pharah only, and has created guides with KarQ on the character for you to learn from

Honestly I’d rather have Barrage than Giant Wall.

At least then maybe I’d get to kill something myself as Symmetra, rather than having to wait for my team to help me do it.

You misspelled meteor strike. Atleast barrage has the potential to kill someone…

Pharah’s self damage is absurd.

If only they removed or minimized her self damage she would be a little bit more viable.

Personally I think it’s fine. It should be very risky and hard to teamwipe with one button press.

Wholehog is the worst Ult by far.

Barrage rocket randomization shall be reduced.

If lucky, it takes an instant to kill a 200hp hero. If unlucky, it takes more than 1 second to pick one.

Barrage is very risky but you can survive if you kill hitscans before they are able to kill you.

Whole Hog, Configuration: Tank, Tactical Visor and Meteor Strike are all worst ults IMO

That being said, I agree Pharah should be able to cancel it

Just wait til you see sojourns…

The answer is doomfists by the way…It’s rarely used for its intended purpose

It’s not the worst ult, but you better be prepared to die if you use it

I’d much rather have a Barrage ready than a Blossom or Meteor Strike.

Meteor strike is Doomfist’s get out of jail free card. What other DPS ultimate literally makes you invulnerable in an instant and allows you to escape across the map to safety?

Doomfist is a cheap hero anyway, his feast or famine playstyle is disgusting IMO and I hate that he’s in the game. There I said it. Him and Hammond, man, they f’ed up the games pacing and battles so much that I’m nothing but bitter, and frankly they can suck for all I care.

recall, fade on a support

I am going to be honest, I don’t think they care about your opinion

The only thing that makes me tolerate Doom atm is how crap he is. Most of the times, he’s a troll pick. If he dominated everyone would whine about him, but (thankfully) he isn’t good right now.

Everybody hates Hammond except Hammond players. The rat can burn in hell for all I care lol

The way I see it they could go two routes with her ult

A) they tighten the cone and increase the distance so that she can at least be a little further away and still do a fair amount of damage

Or

B) give her a health regeneration mechanic…Like say shields for a kill or just passive health recovery during it like reaper

Nothing that what Would outright make the ultimate OP but at least not make it a death sentence either

That’s fine it’s just an opinion, you don’t have to value it if you don’t want to.

Recall is significantly less valuable than Meteor Strike due to it being not a place you can ‘choose’, much more limited range, and something the enemy can predict. Meteor strike is much, much more forgiving than Recall.

And fade on a support I wouldn’t count, since it’s a support category and I think things get really messy when people act like the DPS and Support and Tanks should all be able to do the same things at the same power level. It’s about concepts and sticking with them; DPS should be doing damage, their ultimates should be oriented around them largely doing damage and getting kills. Supports should have ults that focus around supporting, and healing, boosting their teammates, that kind of thing.
