What is considered "good" for Ana's scoped accuracy?

I have been playing Ana quite a bit and was curious as to what number is good for her scoped accuracy.

Don’t focus on accuracy too much just focus on your job and the aim will come with time. If you focus on ur accuracy % you may end up with bad habits like not taking hard shots to avoid ruining ur %.

If you won the game, it was good enough.

50%+ is about alright don't seek perfection

I feel like accuracy stats on Ana don’t mean that much without context. If you’re spending the entire game putting point blank shots into your massive hitbox tank, of course your accuracy is gonna be high.

Generally though I think anything over 50% is fine.

50% or greater for the most part

But the main thing with Ana of course is when to switch from using Ana offensively to Defensively and cool down management especially in OW2 since they want not have as much CC

I want back her UNSCOPED accuracy! :sob:

Accuracy means nothing in OW.
Also remember scoping will reveal your position so its not the best to focus on scoped shots.

Its more about who you heal, who you hurt and when.
How many heroes your grenades hit, how many ultimates you cancel with your sleep are very more important questions… Unfortunately, the game doesn’t really tell you that.

Grenade kills and Nanoboost assists might be the only “reliable” stats to know if you’re a good Ana or not (also Deaths ofc).

Imo scoped accuracy doesn’t matter. How good you can hit hipshots matters a lot more. During scope you only need to hit the shots that matters.

NGL that stat is unironically more indicative of how good the ana is.

It doesn’t mean anything and that goes for all heroes. If you focus too much on accuracy then it means you purposefully don’t take shots because you’ll miss. If you don’t spam chokes/angles or throwout a random shot, you’ll never know if you would get damage/healing/kills with it.

I disagree slightly

It doesn’t matter with Ana because it is the same damage/healing whether it is scoped or unscoped

But with characters like Ashe and Widow where scoped aim is needed to do more damage (and especially Widow where you are giving away your position either way) you need to be accurate…

I think the thing we need to be teaching is that… It is okay to go for body shots because your teammate can clean up the rest

The biggest thing that is taught is headshots but if we put more emphasis in just hitting the shot whether it body or head…

We’ll get better results

Well, even for Ashe and Widow. You should still take shots that are going to miss. This is true when you’re going for Widow 1v1s. You can preemptively shoot to predict the widow peeking. It’s even useful to force a dps to go for another angle.

Thanks to everyone who has responded! I think I am doing okay with her at about 60%.

You’re missing the shots you don’t take, really. There are skills more valuable with Ana than accuracy. Eventually you’ll probably see that number climb to 60-75% but realistically anything higher than that is difficult given how deadly hardscoping can get at higher ranks, especially in a meta with Sojourn.

Whatever wins the match.

Strive for perfection, but don’t expect to achieve it.
