About this converter
Cooldowns gate Overwatch 2 abilities. Times run from 1.5 seconds for Mercy Guardian Angel to 30 seconds for Mercy Resurrect. Blink recharges in 3 seconds per charge. Most fight tools sit between 6 and 12 seconds: Fire Strike at 6, Swift Strike at 8, Biotic Grenade at 10 and Recall at 12. This page pins current values from wiki and official hero pages. Balance patches move numbers often, so each entry notes past values. That makes one Resurrect equal twenty Guardian Angels.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first ability, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total seconds. Try Recall at 12 against Resurrect at 30. Only seconds are used here.
Ana Grenade is listed 10 here, though some tables list 12. Sleep Dart moved 15 to 14. Genji Deflect moved 10 back to 8. Reinhardt Charge varies 7 to 10 across sources and is pinned at 8. Ultimates have no cooldown and stay out. Perks that cut cooldowns stay out. Winston Jump Pack stays out over 5 to 6 second patch swings.
