>Widowmaker isn't good enough to consistently get headshots
>Can only land bodyshots which do good damage but don't kill me instantly
>It doesn't matter though because she can just instantly fire another one that will finish the job

Why did Blizzard think it was a good idea to give a sniper such a ridiculous rate of fire? On top of that her grappling hook gives her a free escape if she sees you coming and her ult is probably the best in the game.

>instantly fire another one that will finish the job

>0% charge doing another 50 damage

N O P E

They would need over a 30% charge to do 50 more dmg.
>>
>>339960379
30% takes how many tenths of a second?
>>
>>339960379
Considering how fast her charge time is that's nothing. She can still fire fully charged shots every half second.
>>
>>339960608
>half second.

Full second.

I keep seeing these overwatch threads but none of them are posting porn.

what's the point of posting about a porn game if you don't post any porn?

uncharged shot does 15 damage, the issue is her charge time.
it needs to be doubled at least, in a few months widow players will be dominating every match if this doesn't get changed.

Snipers weaknesses
>Low rate of fire/Having to reload after each shot
Nah don't worry about that

>Sitting ducks, wide open to flanks
Nah just give her a hook to reach areas inaccessible to most of the cast

Oh and give her an ult that lets her whole team see through walls for 15 seconds
>>
>>339961723
Sure she can dominate scrub playing their main only but thats it... It take a whole 10 second for any non retarded player to pick Winston and go kill the Widow.

>mfw people unironically bitch about this character

You're not a one man army like you are in your other generic FPS games son. Get behind Reinhardt's shield and advance as a team (in a team based shooter, who would of thunk?) , or git really gud if you want to be Rambo.

Having a sniper on the other team should put fear into you, and not be something you can just ignore. When you hear your teammates shout "SNIPER!" your adrenaline and excitement levels should rise in anticipation.
>>
>>339962590
footfags are literally on par with cuckolds and scatfags and should be rounded up and mass exterminated. stop existing.
>>
>>339962759
her damage output is absurd though, with her on the other team that reinhardt shield won't stay up long, also if your whole team is behind the shield then you are going to get flanked.

Why use Widowmaker when you can use someone who has a sniper MINIGUN?

>>339963082
Are you on drugs? Widow doesn't do shit to Reinhardt's shield. The only character that tears through Reinhardt's shield is Bastion.

>>339962174
The hook itself is fine, it's the HP that makes it look OP. She can escape a flank every time if you're not a mccree or a winston or someone with a one hit kill ult.
>>
>>339962759
But she should be totally ineffective and almost incapable of doing anything because it's not fair that I got killed without being able to fight
>>
>>339962759
You have no idea what you're talking about

Reinhardt is horrible vs Widowmaker
>>
>>339962496
She is 19, more than legal in most places. And btw she is older than me
>>
>>339963584
That means she would have to shoot it 12 times on her own with full charge. If your Reinhardt sits there like a braindead ape and lets her do that then he deserves to have his shield broken. If you can't deal with a single Widowmaker in one or two Reinhardt shields you're probably just really fucking bad.
>>
>>339963584
It's pretty insignificant.

I really doubt widows sustained DPS with charged scoped shots is anywhere near the DPS of some other characters

No one screams sniper in this game. This isn't a one life survival game where you have to coordinate and keep cover to survive. Fucking enemies glow fucking red and shout their lame ass one-liners.

Listen in your next match. Normally the first person to see Widowmaker will shout something about there being a sniper and that you should be careful. It's easy to miss in the chaos, but they do announce that there's a sniper.

>>339963540
>>339963584

Well of course the shield isn't going to last forever, your teammates should use the time it buys to fire back or disperse and flank once the shield got you inside the point. The maps are built to have multiple ways of advancing/flanking once you get close to the objective.

>>339963368

I wrote what goes through my head when i hear that there's a sniper on the other team. That's the whole purpose of the enemy team being unknown until your teams face each other. It creates suspense and pressure on you when you don't know into what you're getting.

You don't know if there's a dwarf with a turret behind that car or if Symettra put like 5 turrets in that room with the health packs or where the Widowmaker is. IT'S FUCKING EXCITING. This is why i love this game.

Yes, that is a core to such games that should be the first things on everyone's mind to assure coordination, however people are arrogant beta faggots who are pissing themselves over the thought of speaking loudly on the mic. And when someone does, they "sure as hell ain't takin' no orders!"

LIterally just have your team distract her while a dva goes and bops her.

>>
>>339966620
Even if that was true, it doesn't change anything stated, the claim is 100% true.

And no, most if not all gave a straight bonus

The only "negative" was that you had two have 3-4 specific items and sometimes one of those items may be shit and the bonus not justification enough to use a shit item to get it.

Others were utterly invaluable
