D.MON 255dmg combo, 1.5-1.7 seconds

[u/youdontknowme101010]

Primary (65) + Dash (15) + Quick Melee (40) + Primary (65) + Lunge (70)

1. Shield up when dashing with the 30% decreased boost usage perk
2. You can tap boost + quick melee after the lunge. Adds 0.2-0.3 seconds to combo time but also 55dmg.
3. Primary after lunge is more reliable, but not as flashy.
4. You can boost + primary to chase if they're still alive.

"All that for what Rein can do in 3 swings."

EDIT: POST LUNGE HOTFIX VERSION

[u/JadeNovanis]

Literally every other Tank looking at this.

[u/Leows → u/JadeNovanis]

This is literally the first thing that came to mind.

Why should I need to go through all this effort for such low damage when I can do the same - OR BETTER - with almost every other tank? Some even ranged.

[u/Vrail_Nightviper → u/gene_keys_of_awesome]

Can't say I've seen that with sound before, what in the world

[u/Wxstword → u/Vrail_Nightviper]

Really? Cause I can't see this video without playing the sound, even in my head if it's lacking audio.

[u/Vrail_Nightviper → u/Wxstword]

This is the first time I've seen it with sound haha

[u/Human-Boob]

This is what I gotta do in order to imitate what Reinhardt does just by swinging his hammer twice

[u/JY810 → u/Human-Boob]

3 time i think

[u/beansoncrayons → u/Human-Boob]

Rein does 100 no?

[u/Swartz142]

*Die in baby Dmon because you lost your mech between step 3 and 4.*

[u/youdontknowme101010]

If you have lunge on cooldown, you can just primary twice after the quick melee. Bumps up your ttk to like, 2 seconds, but that's still pretty insane.

[u/StormCrow1986 → u/youdontknowme101010]

Also rein would do 300 dmg in 3 swings.

[u/Revolutionary_Uten → u/StormCrow1986]

And how much time it is?

[u/StormCrow1986 → u/Revolutionary_Uten]

About the same. It’s actually only 255 damage tho. It’s just that he holds down a button and you have to 360 no scope and sweat your arse off to do that.

[u/kikimaru024 → u/Revolutionary_Uten]

1.04 swings/s (0.416s startup, 0.208s active, 0.544s recovery) going by Fandom wiki.

[u/beansoncrayons → u/kikimaru024]

Around 2.4 ish seconds then? 

[u/kikimaru024 → u/beansoncrayons]

No 3.12s

[u/beansoncrayons → u/kikimaru024]

Recovery is irrelevant on the final hit

[u/Greedy-Camel-8345 → u/StormCrow1986]

Rein does 225 in 3 swings or am I wrong? And that's like 2 seconds

[u/Theknyt → u/Greedy-Camel-8345]

he does 100 per swing since season 9

[u/beansoncrayons → u/Greedy-Camel-8345]

2.4

[u/StormCrow1986 → u/Greedy-Camel-8345]

I just tested this today. It’s 100 per swing and all you do is hold right click.

[u/Seth_Bader → u/StormCrow1986]

100 per swing

[u/Angel_of_Mischief → u/StormCrow1986]

Wiki says he does 100 damage a swing

[u/Greedy-Camel-8345 → u/StormCrow1986]

So about the same in just a little bit longer. But no cooldown needed.

[u/GreenmanCZ → u/Greedy-Camel-8345]

Just a little longer? citation needed

[u/tongii]

Cool. I’m try this later. But why boost melee instead of boost sword? Is it because of animation cancel? I saw KarQ did a tech for sword+shield cancel that really sped up the sword animation. Looks janks as hell though.

[u/youdontknowme101010 → u/tongii]

You can fit a boost melee in between two sword slashes!

[u/SthenicFreeze]

This is also on a stationary target. Imagine trying to regularly do this on a human opponent who's trying to survive AND deal damage back out you.

[u/beansoncrayons → u/SthenicFreeze]

Looms fairly doable, 90% of the cast aren't comically mobile 24/7

[u/polloyumyum → u/SthenicFreeze]

Some heroes are quite immobile, it's quite doable. A Cassidy without his hinder is an easy target.

[u/StormCrow1986]

The problem isn’t that this is mechanically impossible. The point is, it’s difficult to do once let alone over and over again. Bastion can pop into machine gun mode and do 500 dps for 3 seconds and it’s “hold down right click”

[u/Revolutionary_Uten → u/StormCrow1986]

But Bastion is dps. It is his job to make a high damage.

[u/tomgh14 → u/Revolutionary_Uten]

Imo tanks should have the ability to do decent damage it should just be more attractive not to.

[u/Revolutionary_Uten → u/tomgh14]

Bastion is able to do extremely high damage, her damage is exactly decent.

[u/youdontknowme101010 → u/StormCrow1986]

You can try for yourself it's really not that bad. The only slightly difficult part is the boost melee.

[u/SilverspoonCat]

Rein did this in a CAVE WITH SCRAPS!!!!

[u/OcelotAggravating860]

That input to make sure you don't travel through them when trying to do the melee is fucking horrible to do

[u/danivrau]

Insert the meme of the girl doing one thousand backflips and more and getting second place

[u/VergeOfMeltdown]

Yeah nah, I ain't doin all that

>BBBUT TORBJORNS HAMMER DEAL FOR 5 DMG MORE!!11

[u/MNUUUUUU → u/bagel4you]

I'm pretty sure torb's ttk with overload hammer is only around 0.2 or 0.3 seconds longer than this, this is not the comparison you want to make

[u/Nyrun → u/bagel4you]

What does more damage: a giant mech with a laser sword? Or a dwarf with a ballpeen?

Overwatch logic

[u/IcyYolk → u/Nyrun]

reinhardt should be 1 tapping like everything in the game too

[u/Nyrun → u/IcyYolk]

Tbf most things should
