Moira’s Survival DPS Build is Taking Over in Overwatch 2 💜⚡
If you’re a Moira player who’s tired of just babysitting your team with heals, it’s time to unleash your inner menace. This build is absolutely beaming its way through Stadium. Gone are the days of just healing and poking—this survival DPS Moira build is here to say, “I can heal, but I’d rather carry, thanks 💅.”
The Survival DPS Moira build is dominating Overwatch 2, and it turns our favorite support scientist into a slippery, self-healing damage dealer that can literally carry games. Yes, you heard that right.
Support? More like a zoomy, flanking, lifestealing menace with attitude 😎.
This build is based off of the information from @Arx_UK in the video above.
🧪 Core Build
This build revolves around 6 must-have items:
Ethereal Excision, Cross-Orbal, Nebula Conduit, Phantasmic Flux, Crusaders Hydraulics and Vital-E-Tee.
Get them by round 4 (or round 3 if you’re ahead) and you’re golden! The rest is suggested – and other than that the rest of the build depends on what you think will work best with who you are against.
