New lmg buff for season 22 has me worried

So idk how I feel about lmgs getting a rechargeable Shield with 40 extra health. I'm just already feeling like this change is going to cause some issues. Spitfire and Lstar are great guns and have a healthy damage output. Your telling me that if revnant has red shield and is in ult with an lmg he will have 340 health. What about the big boys that take 15% less damage. How are these stacking? This is the only change I'm unsure of

  • Im going to guess that these particular devs did not think that far ahead. It sounds like a absolutely ridiculous idea. I am trying to wrap my head around what would have even sparked this idea in the first place. But like always, most decisions these particular devs choose to make and implement sorely proves that none of them actually play this game to understand what is needed to make for a fair gaming experience with maintaining competitive integrity. 

  • not like it could be worse than the havoc meta we just had at last hahaha

    i truly hope for a light ammo buff tho , WHY ARE R99 R301 SUCH GARBAGE AGAIN T_T

  • @rionelo I've been outgunned using an LMG by a more mobile SMG player quite a bit. I've had players weave between my Spitfire shots in close quarters too many times to count. I think the idea is solid but as usual it comes down to how they balance it. If I read it right, Gun Shield is a hop up so not everybody is gonna be running around with one.
  • @rionelo If people thought Havoc meta was rough this is going to be worse. A Havoc could kill a whole team in one clip. An LMG can kill 2 teams, or if you have an lstar, you never have to reload.
