Blizzard Entertainment has announced the Overwatch update 3.10 patch notes for your viewing pleasure, which is now live to download for PS4 users. It’s nothing too exciting however, as it only contains bug fixes.
However, there’s also some character changes that were rolled out a few days ago, which we’ve also included. Read up on the latest Overwatch patch notes below.

BUG FIXES
General
- Fixed a bug that caused statistics on the Career Profile screen to extend off-screen
HERO UPDATES
Baptiste
We are reducing Immortality Field’s minimum health threshold and Baptiste’s area-of-effect healing output as they were providing too much value overall for closely grouped teams. However, direct impacts with the healing grenade projectiles will now grant additional healing to the impacted ally to keep his single target healing effective, with a slightly higher skill requirement.
Biotic Launcher (Secondary Fire)
Healing projectile explosion reduced from 60 to 50 health
Healing projectile direct impact now restores an additional 20 health
Immortality Field
Now protects teammates to a minimum health threshold of 10% maximum health, down from 20%
D.Va
D.Va’s respawn is often intentionally delayed by the enemy team if she is the last player alive from her team and without her mech. This change will make it more dangerous to be near the Call Mech arrival area for low health heroes.
Call Mech
Damage increased from 50 to 250
Echo
This is a change picked up from the Community Experimental card. Since Echo gains an additional health pool through using her Duplicate ultimate, it seemed reasonable that she doesn’t need to be healed to full upon it ending as well. The minimum health value is there so she doesn’t instantly die to a small amount of damage when it ends, as often with a long duration ultimate it can be difficult to remember her starting health.
Duplicate
When Duplicate ends, Echo will return to the health value she had prior to activating the ability, or to 100 health, whichever is higher
Moira
Moira has been underperforming in the support role even in team compositions and metas where we’d expect her to excel. Reducing the cooldown of Biotic Orb is a significant increase in Moira’s potential to quickly adapt to many situations.
Biotic Orb
Cooldown reduced from 10 to 8 seconds
Orisa
We’re reevaluating the cooldown for Orisa’s ‘Halt!’ ability after previous changes have reduced its effectiveness to combo with other heroes. We’ll keep a close eye on whether the increased frequency of this displacement ability ends up being too disruptive to gameplay.
Halt!
Cooldown reduced from 8 to 6 seconds
Reinhardt
Reinhardt has been overperforming since his last round of changes. To help increase tank diversity we are reverting his armor to its previous value while keeping the Rocket Hammer damage increase for now as it helps to balance out the reduced crowd control duration of Earthshatter.
General
Armor reduced from 250 to 200 (Health/armor total reduced from 550 to 500)
Roadhog
Roadhog is a hero who has been underperforming lately with not much changing about him since late last year when he had a more dominant presence, though the balance of other heroes has indeed shifted around. We’re partially reverting the reduction to his damage to help bring him back up to a more effective level.
Scrap Gun (Primary and Secondary Fire)
Damage per projectile increased from 6 to 6.6
Sombra
Sombra’s gameplay usually involves a lot of time waiting for opportune moments to strike and using the Translocator to disengage at a safe distance. Speeding up her movement in Stealth should help get her back into the action more quickly.
Stealth
Movement speed bonus increased from 50 to 65%
