Overwatch PS4 Update 3.06 Now Available, Features Hero Adjustments

Blizzard has announced details on the Overwatch update 3.06 patch notes, which you can now download for PS4, PC and Xbox One versions of the hero shooter. Read up on the full Overwatch 3.06 patch notes below.


HERO UPDATES

ORISA

This will make Fortify more reliable at preventing large bursts of incoming damage and make it more consistent as a defensive ability.

Fortify

Prevents critical headshot damage while effect is active

REAPER

Reaper’s shotguns have a high damage potential but require close range or large targets to fully utilize. We’re smoothing this out by extending the range at which he can consistently deal damage while lowering the maximum damage of each shot.

Hellfire Shotguns

Spread reduced from 8 to 6

Damage per projectile reduced from 7 to 5.5

WINSTON

With this change Winston will be slightly more resilient against shotguns, beams, and weapons with a high rate of fire.

Base Armor/Health has been redistributed from 100/400 to 150/350

WRECKING BALL

For how often it can occur, Wrecking Ball’s knockback is too strong. We’re reducing the distance it moves enemy players to bring it more in line with other low cooldown knockback abilities.

Grappling Claw

Knockback strength reduced 25%

BUG FIXES

General

Fixed a bug that caused player ragdoll models to fall through the terrain when skipping the kill camera

Fixed a bug that caused the Bounty Hunter game mode to collapse too early

Maps

Junkertown

Fixed a bug that allowed Tracer to escape map geometry in a specific location
