What in the world is the point of Gibraltar

This has to be the absolute worst character in the game, What was the purpose of even putting this big slow character that doesn't have any defensive properties besides a shield that anyone can walk ...

I mainly played Gibraltar but I ended up switching. I always play with the same team and always noticed that I was always the first to get killed. I can understand the scope of different character sizes but it is not working for Gibraltar.

I ended up after 75 levels of Gibraltar to switch (playing lifeline) and I immediately saw big improvement in my survivability. Its not a mater of improvement in my playing skills (which i admit i am not the best player).

I would play him again if he either gets:

a passive damage reduction to compensate his size

or increased health

or a maybe constant up time of his ADS shield (as in hip fire or in ADS not) and it being less visable then.... Like a full body absorbsion shield that regenerates.

Some new balance changes just dropped today in Patch 1.1.1.

The two thicc bois Caustic and Gibraltar just got some nice buffs. Let us know what you think about Gibraltar after playing a bit.

Gib is the wooorrrssssssttt, not being able to shoot through your own shield, the hitbox, he just makes your team worse, the patch did nothing to help any of that sorry.
