They fixed Some of Sombra's Changes

[GeoGhostX-1391]

They are listening to our feedback

@GeoffGoodman

We have another round of Sombra changes coming to the PTR soon as well. This is what is coming:

• Reverting the detection radius from 4 to 2.
• You no longer need to look at the translocator to destroy it, you can now just hit the interact button and it will be destroyed. If you’re standing on a Symmetra teleporter hitting interact will only teleport you to Symmetra’s other teleporter, rather than destroying your translocator.
• Dramatically lowered the enemy sound cue for the translocator location. You need to be nearly standing right on it now to hear it.
• EMP now works on Wrecking Ball Minefield, disabling the mines for 10s
• You can now interrupt reload by hacking.

We’re still evaluating the changes overall, but shes unlikely to regain the ability to contest objectives or have +75% move speed while invisible. The goal of these changes is to make her stronger overall, even if it means being slightly weaker in some areas.

I’m still iffy about the whole speed reduction and cant contest but maybe it will be okay…maybe

When they say “ability to contest” do they mean she can only contest, like Reaper in wraith, or do they mean she will be able to actually build progress on the point, like before?

[GeoGhostX-1391]

i believe he means while she is stealthed, she still cant contest

That’s much better but 5hp on translocator that can be shot by a torb turret needs to be fixed. She should be the only one that can destroy the locator.

[GeoGhostX-1391]

either that or give it more health, maybe 30 hp like sym turrets

That’s exactly the type of reaction they expect, don’t be Fooled fella
