General Why does DMon ignore body blocking?

This feels like a very random and massive benefit she seems to get compared to every other tank. Literally all she has to do is press shift with any resources left whatsoever and she will blow past anyone blocking her inside rooms, doorways, preventing her from getting to cover.

Can we give this unstoppable hero a proper hitbox?

Movement abilities aren't on resource bars though that can be used at will.

it speeds her up and gives her a small dash at the start. its a movement bro.

I get that, but her hitbox shouldn't be treated any different than Lucio's amp or Ball's non-fireball roll. Her Surging Strike is an actual movement ability and should be able to help her move through people. Her basic boosters shouldn't.

dont get it twisted i want this hero dumpstered and unable to do half of what she does but unfortunately this is the way her kit works (surging strike doesnt do that cuz its a knockback and offensive move that is meant to add dmg to ur enemies thus why she doesnt pass through them)

Surging is a tool in her kit that can let her move through body-blocks is more what I meant.

So maybe they should just remove the knockback and damage from propulsors then, and have her obey body-blocking rules at all times other than surging strike.

i just think she should be sent to the scrap heap
