Holliday Ult (4) Rework

[jkolubinskyj]

I suggest that the Holliday ult be reworked to become gun focused. Holliday is just (in my opinion) unfun to play with a spirit build. Her passive (3) is amazing and getting use out of it is extremely satisfying. Holliday's 4 is just a worse Billy ult, and you can't even shoot during it, you have to rely completely on teammates to do damage.

Reworking Holliday to become a full gun-focused character is what I would like to see. I enjoy the bounce pads and increased movement, but landing successful barrel combos is difficult and can sometimes feel wonky. I do not enjoy it feeling like a fighting game combo.

A fun suggestion for her 4 would be a super charged set of rounds, that can maybe track or auto-lock on to certain enemy body parts. Think of it like V.A.T.S from Fallout, or Deadeye from Red Dead Redemption. This ultimate could work like Venator, where you have a certain set of shots and a limited amount of time to use it. Or, it could work on a charge system like Vindicta. I would also like to see the shots detonate all at once like Apollo ult.

Let me know what you guys think!

Agreed. I hope they rework her into more of a carry by taking power out of lasso or changing it entirely like you said. The supercharged shots from the ult should have different effects based on where you shoot on the body. I’m thinking if you shoot on the legs, it should movement cripple them and prevent dashing and movement abilities, shooting in the arms should disarm them, headshots do lots more damage, and body shots deal damage over time and prevent all healing during that time. The cooldown should be short too, with maybe even crack shot t3 reducing it as well.

While you may like to see it I wouldn't like if holliday strictly became a gun carry or gun hero, barrels are insanely fun and her bouncepads promote a unique movement system, paired with her lasso for set-up it'd be impossible for high skill hollidays not to get insane value off well timed lassos

That said I would love if she had potential for more hybrid stuff or the potential to be a gun carry, I wouldn't mind this new ult idea either! giving her a auto aim crackshot+debuff depending on limb hit could be interesting.

Maybe this could replace crackshot and be weaker in strength though, keeping her lasso ult for yanking people into walkers >
