All upcoming Hero changes in Overwatch 2 Season 10 Developer Update
The latest director’s take from Overwatch 2 Season 10 Developer Update is mainly focused on some Hero changes in the upcoming seasons. The changes are mentioned below:
Venture Changes
After getting some positive reviews from the community during Venture’s Hero Trial, Overwatch 2 developers have decided on their (Venture’s) early landing in the competitive scene. However, the developers haven’t revealed a confirmed date for Venture’s debut.
Additionally, to maintain the game’s tempo with the Canadian DPS character, Aaron Keller and the developer team have decided to tweak a few things to the Archeologist’s ability kit. The burst damage inflicted by Venture’s Drill Dash and Clobber is going to be converted into damage over time. Moreover, the vertical knockback coming from tectonic Shock will be reduced in the latest update.
Tank Changes
In the Tank Hero section, Junker Queen, Reinhardt, and Wrecking Ball will undergo some significant changes. Junker Queen’s Carnage and Reinhardt’s Earthshatter are all set to receive a massive buff. This might potentially change the upcoming Tank meta in Season 10.
Amidst all these changes, Wrecking Ball’s buff will surely make headlines. After a long time, the developers have decided to upgrade Test Subject’s Grappling hook by reducing its cool-down period. Moreover, his adaptive shield will also undergo some minor changes. Now, players can reactivate the shield and transfer up to 300 overhealth to their allies in close vicinity.
DPS Changes
Apart from the Tank Heroes, Sombra and Tracer will get some minor tweaks. The damage over time from Sombra’s Virus is being reduced to 90 from 100. Additionally, being the “least-touched” Hero of Overwatch 2, Tracer’s kit will receive slight changes. The developers are looking forward to nerfing her viability and converting her into a hard-to-play character.
Support Changes
Following the advent of Overwatch 2 Season 10, Support Heroes like Moira, Lucio, and Illari are about to receive a “power shift” in their abilities. As an example: Illari’s secondary fire will now heal 115HP instead of 105 while the recovery time in Illari’s primary fire is about to increase from 0.2 seconds to 0.25 seconds.
The fans are quite overwhelmed by these much-awaited changes and waiting for Season 10 to go live. Meanwhile, Keller and his team promised to unveil some more changes during the Overwatch 2 Season 10 Developer’s update on April 10, 2024.
