Overwatch 2.34 Update Patch Notes

Overwatch 2.34 Patch Notes Detail Doomfist and Mei Buffs

Amidst all the excitement caused by the Brigitte Overwatch hero rumor, it’s easy to forget about the game itself. New characters create a buzz, but so do new patch notes. The Overwatch 2.34 update patch notes will be especially satisfying to Doomfist and Mei mains, and Sombra wielders will be happy, too!

Overwatch 2.34 Update Patch Notes

The Doomfist buff is intended to allow him to “consistently be able to use his weapon as part of his combos.”

Doomfist

  • Hand Cannon
    • Ammo recovery rate increased from 0.8 seconds to 0.65 seconds per bullet

The Mei buff increases her duration to “help her freeze targets that are particularly elusive, such as Genji or Lucio.” Her alternate ammo fire cost has been reduced, meaning she can use it more safely, without it costing her the ability to freeze opponents.

Mei

  • Endothermic Blaster
    • Freeze (slow) duration increased from 1 second to 1.5 seconds
    • Weapon alternate fire ammo cost reduced from 25 to 20

The changes to Sombra are pretty interesting, as they really shake up her abilities. The EMP, Hack, Machine Pistol, Opportunist, and Translocator have all been tweaked.

As you’d expect, the Overwatch 2.34 update patch notes also contain some minor user interface changes and bug fixes.
