Give him something. He is too basic imo. Idk, maybe give him a smoke bomb or let him throw his shotguns at people. You guys got any ideas?
I want to throw my shotguns at they forehead. It could do 5 damage, it is not important. I just want to bounce them off their skull and feel good about myself.
Give him the USAS 12 with frag rounds from Battlefield 3 or the Model 1887 from MW2.
Maybe a slug shot on cooldown for like 50-75 damage. Hell, he would probably do just fine if Wraith got buffed so it caused like 10-15 per second against targets in melee range.
I remember when they showed us he had a grenade launcher…really thought that was gonna be something they eventually worked in. Here we are 7 years later and still no grenade launcher.
If they ever did do it they could limit it to 2 grenades per reload (one for each gun) and have each do like 35-50 damage and have a very small blast radius. (Obviously it would need to be tested to see what is considered too much or too little)
I always thought they should’ve added this. It could also be a hold down mechanic, and when you release alt fire it explodes. So it could function like an air burst round against flying targets.
It could add a ranged suppressive fire if sorts. Something like that could work for dealing with turrets from afar or finishing off a ranged enemy.
Alright throwing shotguns is actually a great idea. But I think he should have some sort of poison gas grenade.
It could work similar to Bastion’s physically, but it would release a cloud of gas that does minor damage over time. It would be a good way to clear rooms and even move the enemy where you want them.
It would nice for him to have a long-range shot. Instead of relaying to be close-quarters.
He should throw his shotguns forward instead of dropping them when he reloads. The attack should do 30 damage.
Which means he can reload/throw shotguns every 1.5s (20 dps).
Smoke bombs would flow with his kit perfectly, not be too hard to use but have big skill mastery, would be easy to add since smoke bombs have existed since the 2018 Anniversary event. Even makes sense lore wise with Reaper’s first appearance having grenade launcher shotguns.
All of which is exactly why blizz is never going to add them lol.
Or yknow…Poison gas instead of concealment gas
i vote for toob and here are the 20 characters you have ever so politely asked for
Still waiting on the ability to double tap…
Maybe we can get a Reaper rework after hog? He could use a longe range poke shot like Winston or maybe a smoke granade.
The idea is that Reaper is fine and any attention to his kit is going to butcher his identity like Hanzo, Sombra, Genji, and Bastion got butchered. I sincerely don’t trust the Overwatch devs to handle something special like Reaper. They hardly play the game themselves. Please don’t drag him into the spotlight, let shadowboy stay hidden.
Unironically I would like this. Do a very minimal amount of impact damage, and insta-reload on a cooldown. Like, if you do it quick enough, you can animation cancel the reload and shoot faster. You’re actually onto something here, what the heck.
Edgelords are not complicated. It’s been proven by science.
Who? Reaper? HA, that guy’s just cosmetic. He’s meant to be the poster boy villain and that’s all. What do you mean you want him to be some what significant? That’s delusional
