How to Play and Tips

Lead Your Shots with Primary Fire

Railgun's primary fire shoots out projectiles instead of hitscan bullets, meaning they have travel time and do not instantly hit their targets. Practice adjusting and leading your shots over different distances to hit foes with Railgun accurately.

Aim for Headshots with Railgun

Railgun's primary fire generates twice as much energy per bullet when it lands critical hits, making it extremely efficient to land headshots with the weapon.

The same goes for its secondary fire, as a fully-charged Railgun instantly eliminates most non-Tank Heroes with a single headshot.

Reach High Ground with Power Slide

You can press the jump button while using Power Slide to launch Sojourn high into the air. This high jump gives Sojourn easy access to high ground, vantage points, and potential flanking routes.

Line Up Headshots with Disruptor Shot

Disruptor Shot snares and slows enemies down inside its area of effect, making them easier targets for you and your team. Take advantage of immobilized foes by lining up and landing headshots with your Railgun.

Use Disruptor Shot in Choke Points

Aside from slowing key enemy targets down, Disruptor Shot is also effective at damaging and disrupting clumps of enemies around choke points and objectives. Use Disruptor Shot to whittle down and fend off your foes as they attempt to advance through corners and narrow paths.

Prioritize Secondary Fire in Overclock

Sojourn's Overclock rapidly charges up her Railgun's energy for its duration and allows her secondary fire to pierce through foes. Maximize Overclock's damage output by prioritizing headshots and hitting multiple targets at once with Railgun's secondary fire while the ultimate is active.

Sojourn Story

From the Canadian Special Forces to Overwatch

A part of the Canadian Special Forces, Sojourn joined Overwatch and partnered with them during the Omnic Crisis. She led the team and kept them safe, making it her mission to bring every last one of them home. She stayed with the team until it was disbanded.

Cybernetically Enhanced

From the time she was a small child, Sojourn had many cybernetic enhancements made to her body out of necessity. She continued to make more cybernetic enhancements into adulthood by choice, as a means to become the most effective fighter possible.

Precision and Attention to Detail

Sojourn has a very detail-oriented personality. While serving in the Canadian Special Forces she was very thorough in leading the team to victory and ensuring every single member came back safely.

This is also part of the reason behind her many cybernetic upgrades- attaining battle perfection beyond human means. Her attention to detail and thoroughness is also evident in her playstyle, which rewards high accuracy.
