    It comes back way way way too fast and blocks more damage than it "tells" you it's blocking.  If you hit that sucker with, say, a fatty Kraber shot, IT BLOCKS ALL THE DAMAGE. ALL 145 or whatever it hits for. Nothing penetrates through. No damage to shields. None to health either. Not as if he could, ya know, just back down and pop a bubble and HEAL FASTER THAN ANYONE ELSE EITHER. I mean, that would just be way too overpowered right?? Oh... wait... you mean...? Yeah. His gun shield takes all that damage, he's not hurt, and it comes back in like ten seconds. This needs fixing. 

    Damage should "leak" through his gun shield and damage his shields. Damage should break through and damage shields. If I hit the gun shield for 100+ the shield should tank the first 50 and then the rest blows through into his shields and he'd have to back down. Can't tell you how many unfair fights I've been in with Gibralter. Then they wonder why I thirst them as fast as possible for picking such a cheap character class.

    @Versa_Drmz Well, once you break it, he’s just a thicc boi that can be hit fairly easily.
    He’s good for tradeoffs, but fairly vulnerable to any attacks from other directions or focus fire.

    @BabyBachRibzzz Well, if the damage leaked through the shield, then the shield would just become an extra 50 health in one direction, which is still pretty good, but much less useful.

    I just dont get it, Gibby is strongest legend, Strongest Tactical (Massive Cover + Fast Heals + Fast res for Full Team) and its just 1 button very balanced. Ultimate is simply one of the strongest in game + we have broken passive..

    @BabyBachRibzzz Not really. It’s a shield, so to make it more unique they added that feature. I’m pretty sure this was also in effect back when Gibby was bad, so it isn’t a gamebreaking feature.

    I'm with this bruddah right ere. Gibraltar's whole schtick is "Shielded Fortress". I mean, he does what you'd expect and doesn't throw me off my rocker enough to bring the heat to him. If you know what I mean 😉
