These things fit the basis of golden guns established by the addition of Sigma and Baptiste.
These all can:
be seen first person (rein can see his in third and spends most of the game that way)
are consistent across all skins
Are directly associated with the abilities of their respective heroes.
I didn’t add turrets because B.O.B is the only gold “turret” so far and he’s an Ult. Gold junkrat trap also wasn’t added because it makes it less stealthy.
I also didn’t add gold Moira backpack because it’s never seen in first person unlike Baptiste’s little backpack device when he uses his ultimate
Possible as in there’s not a hard reason not too:
Soldier’s healing pod.
Weird but it doesn’t have the turret/trap/immortality problem of needing to avoid being shot at
gold torb claw.
Same reason as sym but not on the main list because he already has a gold gun and hammer
Good point. That might fit in with turrets in terms of being easier to spot and being more of a problem to the user. BOB is big and obvious on his own and has more health so it doesn’t matter to him as much
It’s kinda strange some of them aren’t golden, like Mei’s robot, Orisa’s shield thingy and Reinhardt’s shield emblem, when things like Genji’s melee knife and Brigitte’s shield are.
Also, Reinhardt shield emblem.
That one could be golden too, right?
