- SERPENT_DESCEND6 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_David I know your question isn't directed at me but I'm going to share my thoughts anyway. The main problem is his arm shield. It has a strong HP (75) and can be recharged quickly. If you want to make Gibraltar equal to other legends then you should decrease his arm shield HP to 50 and make it non rechargeable with shield cells. There should be also a bar that shows the arm shield HP and how much time left for it to recharge. If you don't want to nerf him then you need to buff other legends to be equal to him.
@SERPENT_DESCENDI'm strongly against losing the ability to heal His gun shield but in favor of nerfing the hp. His kit is strong enough for a change like that but the end result would be a pure support character. Very useful on a pre-made squad but worthless on a random team.
Perhaps when I used him I just did so poorly so I'm wondering how you'd engage fights with your version of Gibraltar while on a random team.

@Zamaha400I get what you are saying but he is better than most legends in the roster, They don't have to nerf him they can make other legends as good too, Right now a good Gibraltar with purple shield is a nightmare to go against, Even worse is when he has a golden shield because he can recharge his arm shield at a much faster speed.
Edit: Just to be specific, I'm against the idea of nerfing him. I would prefer if they buff other legends so they can be as good as him. I just don't like the idea that some legends like Gibby are a lot useful while other legends like Mirage and Revenant are not nearly as good.
- @SERPENT_DESCEND This. Gibby is broken and I made a thread about what is broken with Gun Shield here:

Gibby is not balanced. He's overpowered and if Gun Shield ain't nerfed next week March 3rd, 2020. He's about to have 300 Health with Red Armor. Good luck trying to one clip him people. You can't - @Leo_the_Lion25 Red armor?
- @Sir_Named The evo armor,which is said to be more powerful than golden armor.
@Leo_the_Lion25 I truly believe Gibraltar was meant to have an advantage in a straight up ADS fight. I dont know if the Gun Shield should have 75 health but he truly felt strong in his niche after it was buffed to that extent.
Then they gave him strong support skills that didn't fit with his existing play style.
Without those support skills he probably isn't worthwhile in higher levels of play but with them he's oppressive against any overly aggressive team.
I like that you're actually trying to balance him but most other suggestions just ruin him.
gibby doesnt need to be nerfed to oblivion like poor wraith, but that gun shield is ridiculous. I would hope to see something with the hp or the recharge rate,but not both. Because theen he'll just be meat bag to clap. But all in all his kit is overall good,just lil overpowered.
- @EA_David Nope Nope andddd Nope, Give his gun shield a timer once broken im thinking 50-60 seconds max so he has to use it wisely .
i@Sir_Named Red Armour is Heirloom Armour, im assuming its for all players and not only players who have purchased heirlooms or its pay2win but its basically the next level up from gold so a 5th shield slot
A evo shield starts at white and as you do damage the shield levels up its in the next events trailer and is the only part of it im looking forward to see i could care less about the cosmetics because its not going to fix this game in any way shape or form@EA_DavidAs everyone else has said I believe his armshield needs nerfed as its the only thing imo making him overpowerred, Im fine with fast heals and faster revives in his dome, im fine with the 15% damage reduction aslong as the armshield gets nerfed because imo having that combo together is the main issue to fight against Gibralters
I love playing as Gibralter but literally as soon as you get on him its apparent within the first couple of minutes how overpowerred of a legend he is... i could be having a bad day and get on Gibralter and win the game as kill leader without even trying at all especially with a ultimate as strong as his lol its great for third partying or to get yourself out of a pinch
