Hero Concept: "V" (Big read) 🦾

[DoctorSix-11373]

@ChibiFox-11511

Well they mean she’s not intended to be an NPC. Which is something you directly said… which is contradictory.

I didn’t say she was an NPC. You asked if the girl Mercy saved was a Mary Sue because Mercy saved her, and I answered that the girl was an NPC so it didn’t matter.

[ChibiFox-11511]

Ah. well you didn’t really specify, i thought you still meant the character in question.
Sorry again about that.

Still, i know i’ll write more onto this at a later date, but i was expecting maybe somebody could give some feedback about the hero concept as a whole.
Like, as a hero.

I only really moved it here because it was instantly buried in general.

[DoctorSix-11373]

If you’re looking for feedback on the hero concept, you’re better off moving this to General. Most folks in Story Discussion don’t care for hero concepts (and you’re not supposed to post fanfiction here anyway).

@DoctorSix-11373

(and you’re not supposed to post fanfiction here anyway).

This did confuse me a little… why have a story section with no… story writing?
It’s anti fan.

But yea, perhaps i’ll move it back.

Thanks for your feedback, and pointing out an error.
(Oh hey, i didn’t know it would be bumped by me moving it, perhaps some people will see it. Yay)

@ChibiFox-11511

the standard melee damage

isnt it 30?

@ChibiFox-11511

melee range.

Which melee range? the Quick Melee attacks such as mercy pistol whipe or zen kick (thats 2 m if I remember correctly?) or Same as melee weapons? (4 to 6m)

@ChibiFox-11511

If used while moving she will jump in a small arc. No matter how she began the jump, she will roll a few meters into a standing position when landing on flat surfaces, or grab onto walls to climb them.

Wait I am confused?
So after she lands she rolls?
or she rolls then jump?
(its probably the first one aint it?)

@ChibiFox-11511

(This is not a static sequence, allowing for camera movement throughout.)

So unlike genji she actually moves her head?
YES PLEASE

@ChibiFox-11511

4 seconds.

See if she jumps and gets to wall climb? I would say 6 seconds is alright
4 I feel like would feel way to short imo.

I loki like the movement of camera when you wall climb.
Is wall climb as long as genji and hanzos or is shorter duration?

@ChibiFox-11511

“Enhanced mobility” V is capable of climbing walls, ledges, and “Holding” a ledge

Wait I thought the wall climb was for the short ability nani?

@ChibiFox-11511

V’s base movement speed is slightly higher than normal. If the jump button is held after a normal jump higher than 1 meter

alil bit like genjis xD
only he cant hold on ledges
can she shoot or do anything when she holding on ledges?

@ChibiFox-11511

“Enhanced senses” With a cooldown of 20 seconds, V will hone in on her enhanced senses, emitting a “ping” every 2 seconds, lasting for a duration of 10 seconds

so
use the ability, 20s cooldown starts
for first 10s She gets a total of 5 pings?
is that correct?

@ChibiFox-11511

• “Healing aura” V naturally has a healing aura around her… it may be a side effect of her time spent training with Zenyatta, and will naturally heal her allies in a small radius of 6 meters for 10 hp per second, scaling up with each successfully landed melee attack, from 10 to 35 to 60, lingering for 5 seconds after the hit has landed. (Radius requires line of sight, it’s size is up for debate.)

Interesting aspect honestly
tho I would say the numbers should be abit less
like
10 to 20 to 40
I would say that would be good since its a passive. (its a passive right?)
Also cute with the zen touch <3

@ChibiFox-11511

“Personal shield grid” V’s health consists of 50 standard HP, 50 Armor HP, and 100 shield HP. Making V heavily reliant on her own naturally replenishing shield grid to survive.

interesting.
I kinda want this.
make it 100hp 50 armor and 100 shields doe.
Since she is melee.

@ChibiFox-11511

• Duel ultimate. V has two ultimates, up to the player which to use.
  As a singular entity, it is referred to as “Duality”
• The first: “Wrath” sends V into an uncontrolled rage, her primary attack dealing 100 damage per swing, without a combo scaling effect. Her cooldowns are halved during this ultimate.
• The second: “Compassion” halves her cooldowns but ups her healing output twice over, and increases her primary fire (swing) rate slightly.

LOVE IT
combo fighter feel to it.
Appearance makes me feel of a female Bugazoid from an old indie game I played called Attack of bot bugs
that game was weird… but it had intresting designs.
it had robot humans transformed into bug and then turned to bots so bot bugs just why XD

@ChibiFox-11511

a welcome change from the normal day to day.

a good question who was she hunted by?

I love how sombra made friends V because she is kinda as chaotic as her.

Nice hero concept.
I want her to drop kick people.
Just goes from a ledge uses the ability and drop kicks someone.
that would be so cool XD

[ChibiFox-11511]

@Lethal-11550

isnt it 30?

I… would have to check that, but i am up for discussion on all numbers suggested.

@Lethal-11550

Which melee range? the Quick Melee attacks such as mercy pistol whipe or zen kick (thats 2 m if I remember correctly?) or Same as melee weapons? (4 to 6m)

As i said i’m up for any discussion on balance related numbers, but i assumed it would be somewhere near 2-4 meters.

@Lethal-11550

Wait I am confused?
So after she lands she rolls?
or she rolls then jump?
(its probably the first one aint it?)

It would function similarly to Hanzo’s lunge, just not as an ability.

To explain:
When standing or making small regular jumps she wouldn’t roll
When jumping from any higher than that, she would roll at the end of the jump, or after the use of her mobility abilities.

With Hanzo you can’t use lunge until you jump, so that’s why i make the comparison.

@Lethal-11550

So unlike genji she actually moves her head?
YES PLEASE

Yes, the intention is for her to be hyper mobile, possibly even a match for Genji in a 1v1.

@Lethal-11550

See if she jumps and gets to wall climb? I would say 6 seconds is alright
4 I feel like would feel way to short imo.

Is wall climb as long as genji and hanzos or is shorter duration?

I don’t exactly understand the question?

@Lethal-11550

Wait I thought the wall climb was for the short ability nani?

No, it is a passive ability like Genji and Hanzo, she simply is capable of climbing walls.

@Lethal-11550

alil bit like genjis xD
only he cant hold on ledges
can she shoot or do anything when she holding on ledges?

Well without the ability to shoot anyways, no. It’s simply for mobility’s sake.

@Lethal-11550

so
use the ability, 20s cooldown starts
for first 10s She gets a total of 5 pings?
is that correct?

Yes, i believe that is correct.

It is a passive, but the numbers scale with direct melee hits landed, meaning it rewards extremely close combat, which is the only reasoning behind the high numbers, as the lingering effect wouldn’t last very long.

It’s burst healing, basically.

@Lethal-11550

interesting.
I kinda want this.
make it 100hp 50 armor and 100 shields doe.
Since she is melee.

She is also a glass cannon, and also both a counter to Sombra, and tied in with her lore. She’s easily countered by Sombra in the same fashion.

@Lethal-11550

LOVE IT

I’m glad! I put a lot of thought into the in-game version of the hero, especially the ultimate.

@Lethal-11550

a good question who was she hunted by?

As far as i am aware, Ana is being hunted world wide under multiple different personas, for many different reasons. I could be wrong, but that is what i thought.

@Lethal-11550

Nice hero concept.
I want her to drop kick people.
Just goes from a ledge uses the ability and drop kicks someone.
that would be so cool XD

This would be a rather viable strategy when playing as V, to simply lay in wait on a ledge, unseen, and drop onto the enemies to engage in close combat.

Thank you for the feedback! ^,^

@ChibiFox-11511

I don’t exactly understand the question?

does she take the same time as genji and hanzo in terms of wall climbing?
Does she take less or more?

@ChibiFox-11511

This would be a rather viable strategy when playing as V, to simply lay in wait on a ledge, unseen, and drop onto the enemies to engage in close combat.

I want her to do it just because it kinda adds an extra stealthy aspect?
Like to not make it obnoxious she can deal 50 damage and 0.1s stun with a mild boop (half of lucios boop) if she hits the target with drop kick. I think that would be cool

@ChibiFox-11511

your welcome

[ChibiFox-11511]

@Lethal-11550

Oh! So the actual time to climb up the surface?
I assumed it would be the same, yes.

Eh, as amazingly cool as that would be i wouldn’t want to over-complicate the hero.

Lethal:

OO ok

@ChibiFox-11511

I just want my assasin creed drop kick or batman stealth xD

for one of her skins she should get the V mask as reference to Vendetta

[ChibiFox-11511]

@Lethal-11550

That would be a perfect reference, given her anonymity.

I wish i could draw better, or i’d have a version of her already posted.
