How mercy should be balanced IMO

General Discussion
1

In my opinion mercy isnt that strong, if I could I would implement these changes to her:

Caduceus staff

  • Increase base healing from 50hp/s to 60hp/s when ally hast taken any damage for 2 seconds

Resurrect

  • Move speed reduction lowered from -75% to -60%
  • Casting time lowered from 1.75 seconds to 1.5 seconds

Guardian angel

  • Movement speed increased from 17m/sec to 18m/sec
  • Max range increased from 30 meters to 32 meters
  • Super jump patched
    • Mercy gains a 5.5m double jump

I got all the numbers from Mercy’s wikipedia page, so pardon me if i didnt get them right. Im not that great at suggesting balance ideas so please go easy on me. So, dont take this thread too seriously, its merely my opinion.

Edit:

  • Updated double jump height to 5.5m
  • Reduced bonus healing to 60hp/s
    • Removed range nerf

Mercy is fine and not in need of buffs, nerfs or reworks imo.

This is merely my opinion.

Mercy is going to see the light at the end of the tunnel only when rez is totally removed.

4

mercy is now useless outside of ashe and pharah.

Cool

Did you miss the second part? :woman_facepalming:t4:

Caduceus Staff

  • 70 hps is definitely too much since Mercy can’t miss, but I’d agree to 60 like previously. Why change the beam range though?

Resurrect

  • Agree to the first change, disagree with the second change (I’d rather get an extra charge during Valk, not as OP), agree with the third change

Guardian Angel

  • Disagree with the first two, agree with the last one to make it an official part of her kit instead of a bug, that sometimes happen when you don’t want it, and sometimes happens at the worst possible time and gets you killed.

No I saw it.

3.5M Is nothing, that will get her no where and will be so much worse than gaurdian angel, while ALSO raising her skill floor

Seriously, this would make mercy so unbelivably easy in mid and low ranks

Superjump is the reason mercy is still viable, nothing there stated can even compare to the power of superjump

I’d just prefer super jump to be an official part of her kit if it’s gonna stay, or remove it completely if it isn’t gonna stay. This half half, where you might super jump sometimes but won’t always, is kind of annoying.
