Reload Time is the time it takes for a hero to reload their weapon's ammo count.

Overview

Each weapon has either a full or single reload type. Using a Melee Attack or Dashing will interrupt the reload until the melee or dash animation is finished.

A notable exception is   Billy, whose reload is not interrupted when performing a light melee attack.

Full Reload and Single Reload

Most heroes will reload their weapon's entire magazine at once, with a consistent reload time regardless of ammo left.

  Abrams' and   Silver's weapons are reloaded one shell at a time, and the reload can be interrupted before it's finished. For these weapons, the time to reload a full magazine depends on how much ammo was left before reloading. These heroes also have a short delay to start reloading after firing their weapon.

Notes:

  •   Abrams and   Silver take 3.17s and 2.1s to reload a full starting ammo clip, respectively (not counting reload delay).
  •   Silver (Transformed)'s reload is incorrect, since she has no reload.

  •   Crushing Fists will restore 15% ammo on a light melee and 30% ammo on a heavy melee.
  •   Quicksilver Reload and   Mercurial Magnum will reload the player's weapon when using the ability imbued by this item.
