Overwatch 2’s Lifeweaver Keybind Changes Will Save You From Aching Arms & Fingers
Lifeweaver has only been available to play in Overwatch 2 for about a week, and devs are already implementing several changes to his kit to help remedy a significant point of pain for players who were looking to pick him up as one of their Heroes.
Unfortunately, within the first day of his debut on the Support role roster, Lifeweaver received an overwhelming amount ofplayer feedback indicating that his controls felt very clunkyand were causing players pain in their hands and fingers from the awkward key binds assigned to his abilities.
This issue has been extremely prominent with console players and controller users, as needing to press and hold all of those different buttons for his abilities was causing uncomfortable positioning and stretching of their hands. However, this issue doesn’t exclude mouse and keyboard players, as there have been several reports on theBlizzard Forumsof PC players facing similar issues.
Fortunately, the devs have worked hard to roll out a fix for this, which will be implemented next week. These changes were announced by the popular Overwatch news and leaks channel, OWCavalry,with clarification from Aaron Kellerthat these changes will be the new default loadout for Lifeweaver, with the option for a player to switch back to the old ability layout at will.
