They didn't nerf Sym's beam width as much

According to the notes, it’s 0.2m now, not 0.15m.

Her beam thickness didn’t really need a nerf, her damage did though.

Cool, 0.15 seemed a bit excessive.
The power of testing.

Yep, 0.2m plus the bug fix seems very reasonable. Can’t wait to test.

Are we getting a live patch push today because consoke has patch notes too

Finally???

I don’t know about that. They still are keeping the Bastion nerf. Not enough power it seems.

Synnetra you mean lol.

And didn’t Hanzo get nerfed or am I missing something? He not on the notes.

He didn’t get nerfed, no. He did last patch before role queue with one less storm arrow

I think that’s a super reasonable nerf. Excited to test!

I note that Zarya’s beam still got reduced to 0.15 according to the notes. Interesting.

Surprised but not disappointed. Makes a change.

She has a bit more range than Sym so it’s probably fair.

the fact that they had to state the damage nerfs again is hilariousss
people complained about her damage when it was CLEARLY on the patch notes

Yea, Zarya is the one who got hit hard

True.

I’m not a Sym main, so a question to those out there who are: if it was up to you, would you trade beam width for range?

Plot twist: It’s still 0.15, they just rounded it up to 0.2 see if people would even notice so they can point to this later down the road as evidence that the majority of people here have no clue what the hell they’re talking about when they nitpick changes that are hundredths in size.

I’d go as far to say anyone with half decent aim would do it in a heartbeat.

I thank Bliz is rather scared of ever giving her that range due to the monster is could potentially create. People don’t think about it but I’ve played enough Zarya to know how many things you can reach and how much safer you can play with 15M range.
