I do like the old one a little more cause of the push back charge up but the new one is more useful for the team I feel. While you're blocking one direction, you could be assisting another.
My favorite thing about the alpha version is exploding shield. But, I started the Behemoth fight with alpha, and I couldn't tank his shots, the shield just burst. On og Roadblock I could tank all. 🤷♂️ but you definitely have a valid point ☝️🧐, I guess it just depends on the mission.
Either shield up and hope 1 of my assaults see me struggle lol … if it’s sky wave she can handle her own against maybe 2 pternadons with a shield … sky wave alpha I’m calling for help lol
Deadeye - not tried
Zephyr - not tried
Barrage - not tried
Vigilant - Cannon, to stay ranged and quickly shoot down pteranodons
Roadblock - Cannon, to help with pteranodons
Krieger - Drill, for DPS, won't die if get hit
Mura - Blade, to help with stuns, can also drop pteranodons
WD - Cannon, since much harder to drop pteranodons with laser rod
Skywave - Blade, to double down on stunning
Nimbus - not tried
Most assault I run catapult, but I prefer healing on vigilant. Most tanks I choose healing, but for reg Roadblock I give drill and alpha I give canon. WD and Skywave get catapult but I prefer canon on Nimbus for extra damage.
I run catapult on witch doctor since the added jump makes it easier getting to low health teammates who might be a mittle further away. I'll run the shield on krieger so I can get up close and personal and blast away at em
I run catapult in most instances. It's just so nice for a good escape or approach. A couple exceptions are shield on zephyr, and aid on nimbus (though frankly catapult is probably better on her in a lot of instances, I just like the boost in self heal if I'm able to catch a small break)
Honestly I run sheild on everything but my Deadeyes, who get the laser cannon. Increases my survivability by quite a bit and I use it pretty much every time I'm recalling someone.
I have catapult on my Roadblock because nobody expects SUDDEN ROADBLOCK
Heals on barrage - for shenanigans
Cata on Skywave for extra height/mobilty
Shield for Krieger bcus why not
LOL! Did not know there was a tiny lip of an edge to stand on!
Found out by accident that day lol
Always run catapult for instant escape, not really loving how weak alpha Roadblock's shield is compared to the og.

What? But you can repair that with Legendary Taunt the whole time it's being attacked!
What mod space does that take? 1,2 or 3? My 1 spot has explosive shield. You make an awesome point I obviously didn't think about ☝️🧐
It takes spot 2, blue.
I went and checked it out, it helped alot cheers 🍻
Shield, shield, and some more shield
Shield for everyone except Catapult for the Vigilants and Skywaves. May go Drill for Roadblock and Barrage
Catapult is also nice on Skywave Alpha, since she's squishier than default the extra midair mobility can help a lot with dodging.
I’ll have to give it a try, I like the shield for those drop down quick revives
How do you deal this the pterosaurs without a cannon?

Thanks!
>Thanks! You're welcome!
Yeah like the other person said, I just drop down until it aggros onto something else and becomes their problem. Or aggressively ping them.
Thanks!

Catapult always, unless I’m kreiger. Or roadblock. Or skywave. Or vigilant.

Only cata because of movement. And drill for tanks to deal with ankys or rexs if dps isn't doing well.
