Overwatch 2 Season 18 Patch Breaks Cassidy, Wrecking Ball
"One of Cassidy's new perks is called Silver Bullet, and it replaces his rapid-fire "Fan the Hammer" secondary fire with a piercing shot that inflicts Bleed on its target. So not only does it shoot through enemies, but it inflicts damage over time on them as well. You can also zoom in when using it for more precision, which is always helpful for a hitscan hero."
"Fans are calling this latest patch one of Overwatch 2 's buggiest, but I guess when you're overhauling a system like Perks there's bound to be stuff that falls through the cracks. Wrecking Ball, the mech-piloting hamster tank, has been temporarily removed from standard play while Blizzard fixes a game-breaking bug that gave him too much momentum when moving while grappled to an object, and Hazard is able to use his block ability forever, rather than having to stop for a cooldown as he's supposed to."
A Perks system overhaul changes every hero's Perks and lets players choose buffs and tweaks during matches. Cassidy gains a Silver Bullet perk that replaces Fan the Hammer secondary fire with a piercing, Bleed-inflicting shot that can be zoomed for precision. The Silver Bullet's cooldown resets on dodge roll, enabling rapid follow-up shots and strong synergy with the Blazing Sun mythic weapon. A bug allows simultaneous primary and secondary fire to double Silver Bullet's damage. The patch contains multiple issues: Wrecking Ball was removed due to excessive grapple momentum, and Hazard's block can be used indefinitely.
