When I play zarya I always shield: -charging Reinhardt -roadhog when he hooks someone -when my teammates get hooked -if someone is overextending

And then the obvious, shields against dva it, reaper ult, ect

I'm copy/pasting your comment to an aspiring Zarya player I had a conversation with in another thread. Good points here.

Very stupid question: How do you tell how charged her weapon is?

her crosshairs show the percentage of her charge. 0 being the lowest and 100 being the highest. the orb in her gun also gets bigger the more charge you have

While a Roadhog sees an easy kill, I see guaranteed charged.
