Rivet Gun

Torbjorn’s basic weapon is a slow firing, medium power rivet gun. It fires a single molten bullet in an arc that can hit enemies at long range or medium range fairly well. You will need to work on accuracy though, as it can be hard to hit faster, smaller heroes.

Forge Hammer

The hammer’s main use will be repairing and upgrading turrets. It can be used to attack enemies at close range in a pinch, but does minimal damage.

Build Turret

Turrets will be your big focus with Torbjorn, but it’s still important to try and place them in places that are going to support your allies. Torbjorn has a hard time on his own, but can be of great assistance when working with the team. Only one turret can be placed at a time, but there isn’t any kind of restriction or resource for how many turrets you have in a match other than the ability cooldown.

Armor Pack

As you accumulate kills in a match, it’s fairly easy to build up scrap. You do have a cap of 200 scrap though, so make sure you’re using Armor Packs to boost yourself and allies when you can. You’ll want to be on the move keeping tabs on your turret, firing at enemies and dropping packs for your allies to pick up.

Molten Core

Torbjorn’s ultimate is great in a pinch, but easy to waste if there aren’t many enemies around when you use it. The important thing to keep in mind with the ability is the fact that it’ll upgrade your turret at the same time, letting you blast enemies from two different sides or dig your heels in for defense.
