We're reducing Call Mech's transformation time to match D.Va's while adjusting Portable Fusion Repeater to improve accuracy and reduce effectiveness at longer distances. We're also reducing Plasma Saber's damage to help offset these improvements. Armor reduced from 325 to 300. (6v6) Plasma Saber Damage reduced from 65 to 60. Power Barrier Cast time decreased from 0.065s to 0.016
