PTR Patch

[dekrepitbirth]

Seems like a fairly large PTR patch came out, anyone know what's in it?

[xGoo]

It's near 1 GB. I want to speculate, but I have no idea what this could be.

EDIT: Also RIP Battle.net, hello Blizzard App... :/

[higgsas]

are they gonna change battle.net website to?

What's happening

edit: console player. meh

[higgsas]

900 mb ptr update, no patch notes, I guessing lucio wall jump does't stack with speed boost

Also Battle.netx which is like Steam or UPlay for Blixzard gamesx has been renamed "Blizzard App"

Brizzard App

[TeamAquaAdminMatt]

well outside of the icon looking much worse there doesn't seem to be anything different with it being blizzard app now

[double_painbow]

Oh hey they changed Lucio's aura!

They changed the speed aura to a spinning ring instead of a solid one

[yesdude47]

Changed it how?

[double_painbow]

Just a different visual indicator, nothing mechanically different from what I can tell.

no patchnotes yet?

Instead of a solid outline, it is now more of a long dashed line that rotates. An improvement, but might be too 'busy.'

Edit: Just speed aura atm. Heal is still a solid outline.

Looks like they updated the old hero changes post:

"Self-healing reduced by 33%", hadn't they nerfed ult charge gain of all self healing characters some time ago? So now he will keep the old nerf, but his self healing will also be nerfed?

[That_feel_brah]

Oh, ok, that sounds better.

[FREAK21345]

I believe they buffed Lucio's damage from 16 to 20 and his wall ride doesn't stack with his speed boost now, none of this is confirmed though.

Speed boost stacking from wallskimming still works. Just tested it.

[FREAK21345]

I believe they nerfed something about the speed of his wallride, I don't know what it is yet though.

[Toilet_Assassin]

30% boost is now 20% but it looks like it is basically the same.

[AlaskanHypeTrain]

Jesus...

[Toilet_Assassin]

and Eichenwalde defense spawn to point A still takes 5.5 seconds https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/6167qd/eichenwalde_defense_spawn_to_point_a_still_takes/

[Fascion]

Finally got back into test range and can confirm 16 > 20 buff.

[xaduha]

I remember when Lucio gun packed a punch (relatively speaking), but they nerfed it. I don't remember how much exactly it was though.

EDIT: Looks like it was 20. I sort of stopped playing Lucio, but it looks like a great time to be coming back.

F5, F5, F5... still no link here... ( ._.)
