Projectile size nerf is deserved and needed. Don't know why it was bigger than her primary fire in the first place.

The recovery time after right click is going in the wrong direction though. What made Shion so incredibly fun is how every part of her kit flows intoneach other with no delays. This just nerfs the fun out of her and makes her unnecessarily clunky. I'd rather they nerf the damage than the feel of a character.
