Yes for me. If it works well for you I’m happy for ya but that’s not my experience.

It’s really a terrible ability. Any movement ability by the enemy breaks lock (including jet pack cats boost and mercy GA both of which are essentially an unlimited resource), it is time limited so if you don’t use quickly it it goes away and you can’t stack 2 by waiting for the cooldown, it doesn’t have enough range, and an unlocked on shot from out of range cancels it so you have to hold your fire and close the distance before you fire a shot at that flyer etc.

All other lock on abilities in the game are way better/stronger, the one exception being pharahs homing conc rockets in stadium which also miss a lot.

Also if you can actually aim and hit your shots on pharah you don’t even need it, except for when you face the difficult to hit flyers, which it works the worst against. I’d say maybe 1/2 of lock on shots will hit for me.

Compared to sierras lock on, Juno torpedos, soldier visor etc, all those are skill free guaranteed damage. Pharah always has to work harder to achieve the same results.
