What happens when the bug occurs? I used my ultimate and immediately used the charge tower. About a minute later I went to use my ultimate again but it had reset to 0% at some point and was at 15% charge. I was confused as I had not used the charge i received from the tower. I had a r-99 and a kraber.
What should be happening instead? Able to use my ult charge I received from the charge tower
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure, I sniped a revenant to down him before i tried to throw my ult again.

  • You can't charge your ult immediately after you used it. You should wait until all of the effects of your ult will pass (in your case all of the Bangalore's bombs must explode). You can see when it happens by paying attention on a ult icon at the bottom of your screen. When it stops glowing, turns grey and starts to gain a charge again - then you can you use a Charge Tower. I believe this restriction was make intentionally to avoid abusing of the Charge Towers. Just imagine Gibby throws his bombardment, charge it, throws again and so on. It will be ridiculous 🙂
