Overwatch 2 Ultimates: Ult Point Costs, Charge Rates & Tracking Timers
undefined
undefined
Every hero requires a specific number of Ultimate Points. Lucio Sound Barrier and Kiriko Kitsune Rush cost 2,400 points; Zenyatta Transcendence costs 2,310 points; Ana Nano Boost costs 2,100 points; and Baptiste Amplification Matrix costs 2,310 points.
Every 1 point of direct damage dealt grants 1 ultimate point, and every 1 point of healing done grants 1 ultimate point. Passive charge adds 5 points every second (300/min). A Kiriko healing 70 HPS and dealing 25 DPS charges Kitsune in approximately 24 seconds of active brawling.
Shooting enemy tanks grants 25% less ultimate charge (0.75 points per damage). Dumping entire magazines into an opposing Roadhog or Mauga slows down your ultimate generation compared to focusing squishy 250 HP damage and support heroes.
During the first 30 seconds of an objective capture, enemy defensive support ultimates are mathematically impossible to have unless heavy feeding occurred. Shotcall aggressive speed-boost dives during this window before Sound Barrier or Transcendence can negate your damage.

Yes, self-healing from passive support regeneration, Mei's Cryo-Freeze, or Reaper's life steal grants ultimate points, provided the hero is repairing actual damage taken from enemy players.
Mercy damage boost (+25%) and Zenyatta Discord Orb (+25%) increase the damage dealt by your teammates, accelerating their ultimate point generation proportionally to the amplified damage.
