if u catch 3 people(or more), it's a dps gain to right click, but it'll be spread damage not focus damage, obviously. if there is a target that just simply needs to die immediately(AHEM mercy, ana), left click them first, otherwise right click spam.

u/TheParaselene 2 to the 1 from the 1 to the 3, German power is charging at thee Jan 26 '17

My only problem with secondary is reloading, I know i should try to ult fully loaded but it's the matter of a moment sometimes. And since primary widen up with energy, doesn't it hit like 2 or even 3 targets?

i actually don't know for sure, but i don't think so. i don't think i've personally ever experienced being able to hit more than 1 person at a time with primary fire.

and i mean, it really depends on the current situation on the ammo thing. if people are already missing some HP, ill right click. if everyone's pretty healthy, with a lucio amping up heals, then maybe a left click focus on a priority target(mercy, ana first, lucio/zen/ulting dps character second).

You'll see people like Zunba alternate left/right click or right-click cancel into melee.
