An idea for Mercy

Why are you still trying? People have been suggesting fixes for months now and they have constantly gone ignored. Devs don’t care about Mercy.

Geoff answered my question about Mercy last week

@GeoffGoodman

I think that’s certainly possible. Overall her healing output is still higher than the other healers, which she pays for by not being able to split focus and do other things while healing. I’d also love to be able to increase the power of her damage boosting, but it causes a lot of issues with various breakpoints where suddenly X hero can one-shot 200 health heroes etc. There are other ways to make it feel better without just adding raw damage though, we’ll see.

This isn’t the first time the Devs have discussed Mercy, though. They’ve said multiple times they have no intention of reverting her or bringing back mass rez, and have said more recently they see her as being in a pretty balanced spot (in video interviews via twitch and youtube).

This pissy attitude is why the forums hate Mercy players. If there weren’t constantly somebody huffing about how ~devs don’t care~ in these threads they might get a little further.

That’s true, Geoff answered my question because I was being nice/respectful towards him in the thread, not attacking him or whining. Kindness goes a long way, Devs are people too.
