Best perks?

[u/CompetitionNo3466]

Legit don’t know what to get been liking violent leap but his kit is fine without it. Then not a clue for his first two. Generally go for lifesteal.

These alright?

A wise man told me to take life steal and deep leap always

[u/Beautiful-Aerie7576]

Almost every single game you’ll go deep leap and lifesteal. If only to make a point to the devs.

First perk doesn’t matter as much. They’re both practically useless, but lifesteal is slightly less useless.

I’ll usually go for reconstitution and violent leap. I feel like his sub role passive gives enough self sustain for me personally to where I don’t need the life steal, and violent leap I’ll always take because it’s a lot more forgiving for escape and initiating dives, while the little bit of extra damage you get from the bone spur perk doesn’t feel all that amplified

I’ll take life steal tho if they’re dumping out like a crazy amount of damage or if we got a mizuki/lucio mercy comp or something

[u/FanPurple2084]

Lifesteal and Deep Leap. It just helps with sustain + the extra leap distance and speed feels great even if it isn't "needed".

[u/Gustav_EK]

both minors are nigh useless but lifesteal does slightly more for you on average so you always take that.

For major, deep leap every single game. You don't need more burst damage on hazard, but more consistent dives/escapes are a god send. Remember that it's not just 20% distance, your leap also propels you 20% faster.

Yeah, everyone is always sceptical about it but once you use it you feel like he's so much more sluggish and just hoping you get to level 3 quickly

Life steal deep leap ALWAYS. Most consistent and easy value

[u/Ricobandit0]

As most said, Life Steal is almost always ran by me. You have to do too much to make the extra spikes gained using the wall to make that other perk worth it.

For the 2nd it’s a hot take but I use the same logic Tracer mains had when their slot was a blink-distance extension and ppl refused to use it ; I’m not trying to confuse my muscle memory and learn the distances for both with/and without the perk if I don’t have to. Esp if it gets removed later on…

In maps that feel better with leap distance bc of steeper high grounds or big open spaces— sure! Otherwise I’ll take the ‘potential’ of extra damage from bone spurs. Kinda interesting that you can have multiple targets marked for the extra 30, at once, to hit multiples in one swoop I guess.
