The Symmetra rework went live on Overwatch's test server in early June. PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC players all have access to the rework now.It's not the first rework for Symmetra, but it's definitely the most extensive. In the live game, Symmetra's remained a niche pick\u2014in the game's professional league, she's never been played. Symmetra's new kit makes her a lot more powerful, moving her from the support category to a broader damage class.Related: Overwatch weclomes a newly reworked Symmetra to the test server\ufeffHere are the details, straight from Blizzard.SymmetraPhoton ProjectorNo longer locks onto targetsRange increased to 10 metersDamage ramping now takes two seconds per damage level instead of one secondDamage ramp increased from 30\/60\/120 to 60\/120\/180Now generates ammo instead of spending it when hitting a barrierAmmo reduced from 100 to 70Alternate FireNo longer pierces targetsNo longer locks onto targetsNow explodes on contactProjectile speed increasedCharge up speed increasedDamage changed to 60 impact \/ 60 explosiveSentry TurretTurret is now placed like a projectile instead of being set in placeCan hold a max of three, down from sixCan now deploy a max three, down from sixDamage increasedAmount of slowing effect increasedTeleporterCan now place the exit up to 25 meters away from SymmetraEntrance will automatically be built in front of Symmetra, rather than at her team\u2019s spawn pointLasts 10 secondsHealth lowered to 300More things can teleport through it (e.g. Junkrat\u2019s RIP-Tire)Entrance can be destroyed, but If either the entrance or exit is destroyed, the other is removedNew Ultimate: Photon BarrierDeploys a barrier that is big enough to span and cut through an entire mapOrientation can be changed by pressing the ultimate button againHas 5000 healthSymmetra is much more flexible in action. She can dole out heavy damage, but still set up interesting traps to protect her team from flanking enemies. Likewise, her abilities still support a role that allows Symmetra to change the tide of battle, whether it be with her massive Photon Barrier or teleporters.Despite being added to the Overwatch live server, she won't be playable in the Overwatch League playoffs. That won't change too much for many Overwatch League players, however\u2014she's never been touched in-game.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/11091828\/879c1008-a999-484c-84f0-284792db597a.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1640"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/909"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1640"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1640\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1640"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1640"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
