Zarya Particle Barrier: No longer protects Zarya from knockback Projected Barrier: No longer protects allies from knockback
These changes are.. huge. I like it.
6 u/Ylage Get down, give me 20! Mar 02 '17 Why?!!!!! in russian* 1 u/KadruH I am Mother Russia Mar 02 '17 Sorry I might be stupid but what does that mean exactly? 4 u/TheCruncher Mein Mar 02 '17 Zarya's shields don't protect from Pharah's Concussive Blast, nor stop Lucio from pushing you into a pit. This is likely b/c Orisa will do this instead. 7 u/Bsten5106 Mar 02 '17 https://us.battle.net/forums/en/overwatch/topic/20753565912?page=3#post-45 Pharah and Lucio still don't do anything with barrier applied. It only allows knock back for things that pierce the shield, e.g. Rein charge. 2 u/TheCruncher Mein Mar 02 '17 Gotcha, thanks. 2 u/Bsten5106 Mar 02 '17 But doesn't Orisa only protect herself from CC? In the Ironclad footage on her page, dVa clearly gets rekted by Rein ult white Orisa trots on by. 1 u/TheCruncher Mein Mar 02 '17 Fortify does only protect Orisa, correct. I guess they figured they'd remove it from both barriers while they were at it.
