Should projectile heroes do more damage?

Not really, Splash Damage is a thing.

they’re often not that balanced out tho.

e.g.

@Zephrin-11143

Here’s the tea about sym orbs:

• if meant to be aimed, why do they travel 25m/s which is so easily dodged in many ranges irrespective of how well one aims or predicts?
  • like even at 15m it gives enemies 0.6s to reactively dodge them . most heroes can travel 3.3m > than orb splash radius i.e. can completely dodge or easily just guarantee only taking splash damage even at 15m away
• if meant to be spammed, why is there 1.25s between fully charged orbs (1s charge up, 0.25s wind down) preventing decent area coverage and simply being bad spam esp when comparing to junkrat or pharah who have like double the fire rate for similar damage per shot and same, if not faster, projectile speed?

and then meanwhile we have hitscans like mccree that can kill more quickly or as quick as a lot of projectiles due to their firerates + also decent if not same burst all the while being more reliable because they’re undodgeable.
