Baptiste\u2019s Abilities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Biotic Launcher<\/strong>
<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste\u2019s Biotic Launcher has two different firing modes. The primary firing magazine contains 45 bullets, shooting 15 three-round bursts, and each bullet does 24 damage to the body with no damage falling off. The damage falling off starts occurring at 25 meters away from the target and ends its effect at 45 meters. Where each shot does 12 damage to the body. There is a recoil pattern that comes along with the primary fire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste Secondary Fire magazine contains 10 healing grenades that heal for 70 If they directly hit the target and 50 for other teammates impacted by its explosion. Each grenade is arcing projectile meaning that they have travel time and fall while in the air. While the travel time is fast and it is noticeable and will have to learn it to scale large distances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste\u2019s Regenerative
<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste\u2019s Regenerative provides a convenient healing solution for the whole team when needed in the pinch. When the regenerative burst is activated, it heals 15 per second to all teammates and 30 per second to yourself over 5 seconds. The regenerative burst has only a 10-meter radius. It will heal those teammates that will be inside a radius of 10 meters. A regenerative burst should be beneficial if it is utilized when your team gets dynamited by ash or after a great deal of splash damage hits your team from Pharah and Junk Art. Do not overuse this ability as it is on a 13-second cooldown. A creative way to use regenerative burst is to use it on an engagement with a brawl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immortality Field<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most important ability within Baptist\u2019s kit is the Immortality field. It defines him as a character when thrown, the immortality field flies through the air until it comes in contact with the ground. It will create a 6.5-meter radius where all friendlies are immortal while within the field. The lamp accomplishes this effect by not allowing any friendlies to submerge below 10% of their max health. If the lamp is not destroyed it can last for a whole five and a half seconds which is fight-defining. The immortality field is on a 25-second cooldown. This ability requires extreme precision to get maximum value out of the character. Place the immortality fields on the corner so that you can get the effects and you want on your allies, out of the sight of your enemies to keep the field healthy as long as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amplifications Matrix<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Baptist\u2019s ultimate is the amplification matrix. A 9X5 garage door that amplifies all friendly damage and healing that passes through it by 100%. The matrix also charges extremely quickly so using it frequently can create a lot of value and win you more fights. Baptist\u2019s ultimate can create the breaking point in which all resources are committed, optimally one team always beats the other team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exo Boots<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Exo boots, you can jump up to 9.1 meters in the air. The higher you climb the less you are going to want bunny hop especially against a window. It is important that you practice with this passive as it can get you out of a lot of tough situations. Try not to jump too much higher than your destination. A situation where you will want to use your Exo boots is when an enemy may wall off your Rhine. Immediately jumping over the wall can mean the difference between the won and lost fight. Jumping up gives you more options to either heal, damage, or use your immortality field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips & Tricks in 2024 to Follow<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste is most effective when he stays close to his team. This way, he can use his Immortality Field and area healing grenades better. He can shoot and heal at the same time to use his abilities fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Overwatch 2, where moving quickly is important, Baptiste should be in the middle of his team. His Exo Boots let him jump high to heal from above or escape from enemies by jumping up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of players make mistakes when playing Baptiste involves poorly managing your resources. It is important that you do not use your healing grenades when you don\u2019t need them before the battle begins and during the battle. You only need 13 grenades in a MAG before you have to reload. If you waste heal on targets that took bits and pieces of damage then you will lower your uptime because of this it will cause you to use your immortality field way early compared to enemy Baptiste and lose your fights consistently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playing Baptiste well means knowing the best time to use his Immortality Field. Using it at the right moment can help your team win against strong enemy attacks. It’s good to use it when the enemy uses powerful moves like D.VA’s Self-Destruct, Genji’s Dragonblade, or Doomfist’s Meteor Strike. This can protect your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste Playstyle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Baptiste has changed compared to where he was before in Overwatch 1. Baptiste is no longer your standard brawl support pickup instead his role is shifted while it has not been Meta yet. If Arisa shifted into a better position, then Baptiste would be the pick. He would have to keep up with her needs that isn\u2019t to say that he would not be good with other brawl compositions and function better with Brigitta and Moira. Baptiste does thrive especially in spam compositions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When in spam composition Zenyatta his damage is impeccable comparatively over other supports. Which allows for fantastic Shields bursts against enemy Sigma. Baptiste also provides herb peeling opportunities for Zenyatta in the scenario that the enemy decides to pull out a tracer or Genji. Any Zenyatta should be able to deal with a flanker when he has over 300 effective HP. Baptiste has now peel and damage potential. In Brawl compositions, he is still going to stack with his entire team and look to push with more aggressive immortality Fields. While with spammy poke compositions, he will be staying close to his tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
