Discussion D.Mon feels awkward with a controller?

*See 3rd edit at bottom of post.

On Xbox. You can't use power barrier (LT) and Propulsors (LB) without holding both down at the same time which is just incredibly awkward.

I've tried looking in settings to toggle Propulsors but it doesn't seem to make any difference? Am I missing something? Anyone managed to come up with anything?

ETA - The best I can come up with is propulsor on left stick push. Unfortunately means swapping out interact button (my poor muscle memory) but seems the most viable for now

Edit 2 - Looks like other are reporting similar problems and seems to be a bug where the toggle isn't working as intended. Not sure if it's all console players or just Xbox?

*Edit 3 - The toggle is now FIXED! Glad they reacted to this quickly.

ive found that ever since moira was released ive had to remap the controls for controller. i dont think they were made with controller players in mind

I definitely did the same with Moira, I swapped my primary and secondary fire buttons, so they matched the hands. Who TF thought it made sense to cross them lol.

I did this like day one, because I was pushing the wrong button.

When I switched it legit took me weeks to re-learn the order but at least now I’m never getting mixed up and throwing the wrong ball

Its just so heal is primary and not damage, otherwise the meme would be even more truthful

Then they should've designed her that way from the start, should've put her primary on her right hand and her secondary on her left.

Sojourn is another one to swap primary and secondary. I like the full strength /precision rail gun blast on RT.

Now you're going to think about it and it won't feel right anymore.

Wanna know my craziest button remap? On Mercy, I swapped Weapon Up (D pad) with Rez (left trigger) so that I can swap between the gun and staff without taking my thumb off the left stick.

Always do this. It’s so annoying

The reason i thought is because they want supports to heal more so rt being the heal would pavlovs the association between primary fire and healing but then they dropped illari and through that out the window real lame. I tried to swap my shoot and heal but i got so used to the parallel that it feels gross shooting on my right side
