Re: Character fix

@Reallyo387 Fuse isn't the only one who can be affected by his own abilities. There are several other legends who can either hurt themselves, (Mad Maggie, Bangalore, Gibraltar, Crypto, Valkyrie, Octane, etc.) or have their abilities be used against them, (Rampart, Wattson, (enemy Wattsons can build off Wattson's fence nodes), etc.)

Taking away the damage from these abilities would allow these legends to rush through their own abilities and that cause balancing issues. While there are legends like Ash, Ballistic, Wattson, and Caustic that aren't hurt by their own abilities, its a little different.

Wattson and Caustic are meant to hold down an area, so it make zero sense if their abilities started to hurt them. While Ash's snare is meant to trap and slow down an enemy player, and Ballistic's is meant to disable an enemy player's weapon. I do think both of these should affect Ash and Ballistic if they had ran into their own snare/smart bullet, however these are not like Fuse's knuckle clusters, (which are mini grenades), so I get why these don't damage the Ash/Ballistic who used the ability.
