Reload Time
Reload Time is the time it takes for a hero to reload their weapon's ammo count.
Overview
Abrams and Fathom are the only heroes who can reload one ammo unit at a time and stop their reload before it's finished. Other heroes need to reload the entire magazine at once.
With the exception of Abrams and Fathom, the reload time isn't affected by how much ammo was left in the magazine before reloading.
Abrams and Fathom have a 0.7s delay to start reloading after firing a shell. Other heroes can reload immediately after firing.
Using a Melee Attack or Dashing will interrupt the reload until the melee or dash animation is finished.
