Details

Every point of damage absorbed by Zarya's Particle Barrier and Projected Barrier increases the damage of her Particle Cannon. Energy is counted on a scale of 0 to 100 and degrades by 1.8 points per second.

Energy level increases at 1 point per 5 shield damage taken.

For every point of Energy, the Particle Cannon's damage for both firing modes increases by 1%, up to 100%. This means that the primary fire's damage per second will be 85 with 0 energy, and 170 with 100 energy.

Zarya's Energy level is displayed below the crosshair. If the default crosshairs is enabled, a ring will surround the crosshair, getting thicker upon energy gain.
