I never said she was alone. But unless u have a Rein Orisa brig comboor similar, ur team is probably not going to be able to protect u from direct line of fire of high damage spam (like Bast+Junk).
And since this beam will require u to maintain a direct los for at least 10 seconds to break an Orisa barrier, I feel like that’s quite risky and dangerous for the Sym, especially if she has to work w Zaryas range.
Her new role is to be a shield buster. You aren’t supposed to even be using those as her primary fire literally lets you build up damage while not losing ammo to rip through shields and then the enemy once those shields are gone.
I think the idea is that instead of spamfare that you lob in a direction and hope your enemy team isn’t smart enough to just strafe, the new m1 and m2 will work hand in hand in actively busting shields down, and then doing damage with splash to clumped up enemies.
That’s how I’m gonna try it out anyway. If not, the m1 still does signifant ramp up damage.
