I agree she needs a buff. No one is stupid enough to run through the perimeter fences, and they are easy enough to destroy. I think if you place her ultimate near the perimeter fences, then the perimeter fences should be indestructible. If the enemy destroy her ultimate, they can then destroy the fences.

I think Wattson is in a really really good place at the moment.

Her hitbox makes her a pretty hard target and her skills are really useful in the right hands. I think it's important to take into account what her value is other than just getting damage from her fences. Those fences can really put a spanner into an enemy teams push, and it's really good for separating enemy team-mates from each other.

On top of that her ultimate is probably one of the best in the game at the moment, purely due to its ability to shoot ordinance out of the air. I've played a bunch of games with her now where i've heard the interception pylon zap several grenades out of the air and give me the breathing room to heal over and over again.

If you're playing Wattson too defensively however it is important to know that she is most powerful when she pushes, as many opponents won't expect a push from her you can really take people by surprise. Then once you've got people's attention you retreat back to your safe space to heal or plan a second ambush.

@Cabowse I can't get there man. Someone's hitbox not accurately resembling the model isn't a feature with which to balance things - it's TERRIBLE design for an FPS :S

You shoot what you can see. It has ever been thus. Making things you can see lots of but not land any hits on is garbage.
