[Feedback Thread Continued Part III] Mercy Updates - Jan 30, 2018

I think devs are actually looking at the comments bc its been about 2 hours and most of the posts have been suggestions to change up Mercys current state, so maybe if we keep it up they might respond soon?

And she contributed and made an impact on the fight hmmm.

I wouldnā€™t go so far as to say they would reply, but anything is possible. If the are looking, good. Good for them, and good for us

Hey gotta stay positive but not get your hopes up.

The important part is to be CAUTIOSLY optimistic.

i just want someone from blizzard to come out and say they are working on her. Idc if they dont give us details, but just a little ā€œyea we are working on herā€

I honestly do have faith that, one day, the devs will do the right thing and bring back our hero

Yeah it does get a little irritating having to repost all our ideas over and over again to get no feedback but hopefully it will change after todays convos.

Itā€™s still open, Iā€™m surprised. Maybe thereā€™s a glimmer of hope :innocent:

I just REALLY hope they address the whole ā€˜funā€™ aspect of this. So they just nerfed her healing, the ONE thing sheā€™s good at, and gave her absolutely nothing in return. The pure healer is now a secondary one, if that. I pocket the pharah, she dies. I canā€™t outheal the damage thrown at me anymore. Valkyrie? Iā€™ll likely survive, but no one else will. That 10% reduction was huge and took the last scrap of fun out of her. At least before I could flit around and feel like I was still helping keep my team alive, now I canā€™t even do that. Whatā€™s the point anymore?

I think itā€™s nice that even though we say we donā€™t support blizzard with their recent decisions, we still want to support them deep down. We know that they can make the decisions necessary to fix Mercy, they just havenā€™t chosen to yet. Hopefully we may get pleasantly surprised

Along with the fact that half of the time with Valk you dont even fly bc a widow or a aim bot soldier is going to get you.

Truth. And with rez being so risky now (not to mention being turned into a stone feels like garbage) Mercy doesnā€™t bring anything to the table now. Hundreds of hours on her, down the drain. Hooray. I just wanted to heal my team, and I got punished for it with this broken shell of a character.

On the contrary, those hundreds off hours mean that you can at least use her, even in just some scenarios. I canā€™t even do that. I didnā€™t take the time to learn Mercy because I took her 1 star difficulty for granted. Fortunately, I still learned how to use other supports, so Iā€™m ok.

I donā€™t really think the healing was the fun aspect of her kit. Itā€™s just that now, you dont get rwarded at all for working hard.
Soldier 76: you were landing your shots correctly and doing your dps job, heres a faster reload, immediate reload and an aimbot for your hard work.
Moira: you were healing a lot. Now you have a long distance beam that heals 140hps, does 70dps, youā€™re faster and better regen.
Mercy: you were doing great, now fly, uninterruptible 20hps (wow) regen and everybody gets the same amount as your base hps.
Itā€™s not rewarding at all

I use her when Iā€™m playing with friends and no one else goes healer, but I donā€™t play her for fun at ALL. Itā€™s incredibly demoralizing watching my teammates fall. Iā€™ve switched to DPS/Tank, but really havenā€™t been playing much at all lately, truth be told. Just not as fun.

Hi bin!

Bye bin!

Additionally they gave Mercy unlimited ammo at this point i just pick off enemies w her ult. Its irritating bc thats not her at all, it was never supposed to be.
