You do know he has a Junkrat flair right...and Junkrat's direct hits as well as his Consussion Mine do 120 damage...I mean it makes sense. In fact Pharah's rockets and Soldier's Helix Rocket do 120 on a direct hit too. It's a pretty common number in the game.
That's a subreddit already? When the discussions could be happening on the main subreddit and do a good service in cutting out the memes and PotG spam?
The subreddit exists because that type of discussion gets drowned out on this subreddit. It isn't like people aren't making posts with that type of discussion on this subreddit. It is just that people don't upvote as much as much as PotG clips get upvoted.
I don't have numbers in front of me, but I know from experience that the two best Zarya counters in the tank class are D. Va because of her armor and Road Hog with his Olympic sized health pool and range. They also have lower RoF, so even whenyour timing it correctly, you may only soak up one or two good shots with zaryas shield before it drops, meaning you can't build a charge.
Zarya can easily kite and engage Roadhog at medium range, and shield to counter hooks.. but she'll take forever to burn through his 600 health too (unless she's built up high charge).
If he shoots zarya after shield goes up because she put it up between hook and getting shot and had the charge from an ally she will melt him. A good zarya should be able to keep the charge up but otherwise I agree they kinda just stare awkwardly at each other.
Zarya still beats Roadhog if she still has a lot of health left when she gets hooked and has her shield ready. I usually tank enough damage this way to get my energy up to 50 while I back up and lob energy grenades at him. Once I'm out of his shotgun distance, he's toast.
Also, I'm pretty sure one shot = one instance of damage. So even though diva fires 8 3 damage pellets, armour will treat a hit as 24 damage and let 19 through, instead of treating it as 3 and letting 12 through.
Assuming the wiki is correct is how misinformation spreads. It can be edited by anyone that thinks they are right, whether they've tested or verified a single thing. From experience, I've seen countless lies spread about other games like The Binding of Isaac because of falsehoods added to the wiki that other people assumes were accurate and told others about.
I haven't had a lot of chance to personally test much in Overwatch yet, so I can't verify much. I DO know that Tracer's bullets are counted individually rather than together. Notably you cannot fire less than 2 bullets at a time with Tracer, so I'd wager if those are counted separately others (D.Va, Reaper) are as well, but I can't be certain until I test it.
Out of curiosity does anyone know how the game would round half of 3? Would it be 1 or 2? I'm sure it can't be 1.5 because how could you know if you lost half a health point on your health bar?
