What if wraith form was a resource meter?

Basically the title. What if wraith form had a meter like D.va matrix? Of course this would need to remove the instant reload, but I think it could make reaper more fun if he was able to juke more than one attack every 8 seconds and was able to cross a small gap between main tank shields safely without being stuck there afterwards.

Anyone else think this would make reaper much more fun to play? It could also come with a small nerf if it’d be OP.

maybe, but he would have to lose the movement speed increase I think. it would allow him to ignore everything and go faceblast the supports very easily, since no cd he can do it at ANY time prmuch

i kind of want a shadow step that works like meteor strike

depends on duration. anything more than 3 secs and is insanely broken.

I agree it could get broken quick - it would def be a huge buff

I think this would definitely be a bit OP unless the duration was nerfed heavily, which I feel would also not be optimal.

Yeah definitely has the power to be really OP. I feel like with this I could actually do stuff with him though, even if he took a nerf in other areas and/or it becomes a downgrade for people who use it all at once.

Then you gotta take away the free, instant reload

Reaper’s wraith is fine as is. It’s just his shadowstep and lack of an alt fire or ability tied to that button that needs to be looked at.

Oh yeah loosing the free reload is a given.

way too broken, it removes his major weakness which is stuns and one shots. It’d be the same as if mei had her cryo freeze on resource meter. They can use those abilities to dodge other powerful abilities and they’re already amazing ad 1v1s. So no to that suggestion.

One of the weaknesses for Reaper is that he has to commit. If he can just dodge shots mid fight with wraith and still use it to leave it gives him extra staying power and the choice to not commit.
