Widow needs to go to 0.0m projectile size

there is no reason for a 57m hitscan one shot primary fire to have a projectile hitbox

And certainly not in a game where heroes already have exaggerated / ballooned hurt boxes.

The only problem is it’s a one shot kill. Reduce the headshot multiplier from x2.5 to x2. Then Widow can be buffed in other ways, or even the sniper itself could gain some non-damage buffs or new utilities.

One of my pet peves is when people over react to heros getting hit by stuff not aimed at them.

Like the model =/= hitbox,

Still wouldn’t actually fix the issue of widow 1 shotting

Instead of floating around the issue they just need to remove the 1 shot that makes her problematic

You can make it as hard to hit as you want, people will still hit the shots and it will still suck to play into. No projectile size will change the fundamental problem widow sucks to face

Crit multiplier 2.5x → 2x
Max crit damage goes from 300 to 240

New passive
Widow’s Bite - Scoped Critical shots apply a poison DoT to the enemy
Meaning she cant instantly 1 shot anymore but she can take someone super low and if no one is there to help or they cant cleanse themself her poison finishes them off keeping her 1 shot lethality

Two things that are factually correct:

  1. Hitscan is a crutch

  2. Snipers don’t belong in Arena shooters

They did not say the hitbox was the model. They said the hitbox is ballooned. This is objectively true. And after this update, so are the projectiles.

players are getting sick of her and it’s only a matter of time until she will get nerfed into the ground again. Can’t happen soon enough IMO
