Octane's Q Too Fast When Healing

Octane's Q allows for insane speed while taking sheilds/heals. If you use any sheild batteries, heals, or ult accelerant, immediately followed by Octane's Q, Octane can run as fast as his Q allows but still allows you to fully heal. This means not only can run from combat while healing, but will also be full health by the time the Q fades.

This wasn't mentioned in the patch notes, so I'm assuming it's unintentional and not discovered yet. Could be an OP mechanic.

    @ADM-REIxSUPREMO Exactly. That’s why some people think he shouldn’t be able to move fast while healing.
    I like having the fast movement though.

    366 is the running with his stim and a WEAPON ON. Why you making me write the same thing over again.

    Its 420 when you holstered.


    And yeah its a bug, because a running a speed for normal character with a weapon its 260, but you did not heal on 260 right?

    For me this is 100% unintentional and they should fix it asap.

    @LordloshBang Hmm. I feel like the numbers don’t really align right, but I’ll take your word for it.

    We’ll have to see if this is intentional or not. I haven’t heard anything about them “fixing” it yet, let me see.

    Check it with the speed value code and you will see i`m right.

    @LordloshBang Eh, I don’t think I can. I’m on console, so I’m pretty sure there’s no way to actually do the debug menu thing unless I download some third party software or do some strange tech magic.

    @BrBeeb Ok but it’s not op and octane really needs something the makes him strong and survivable in fights and the walking speed heal which isn’t OP is a step in the right direction. I mean technically speaking it’s not even a bug because the stem removes movements impairing effects so I don’t think it needs to be changed
