Whip Shot is Brigitte’s main form of proccing Inspire. This change will help her have much more consistency to fill her Support healer role. The removed knockback will prevent her from exploiting tanks like Reinhardt and provide an incentive to respect barriers, as it will reward non-barrier shots more.
I’d rather they give her shield 50 or 75 more hp and let repair pack slowly give 75 armor to anti-heal targets
How to fix Brigitte: Buff her shield back to where it was (or at least 400). Probably also Shield Bash.
It wouldn’t make up for the nonsense nerfs, but it’d help a ton. The problem is she can’t even counter the heroes she was supposed to before because her shield breaks so easily. How can you counter Tracer or Genji when they can break your shield in seconds from outside your range, and then you can’t even threaten them with Shield Bash?
I feel Brig ultimate is lacking. The impact is not as strong as coalesence or Mercy Ult.
Bring her shield health up to 300 or 400, revert stun nerf, shield bash does 20 damage or something, self healing increased so that a venom mine doesn’t out damage it.
That would require them to code additional stuff. Sounds like a solid 3-4 years of work.
Or just do a full revert but keep the whipshot buffs.
Maybe also rearrange Repair pack so it is less bursty (150 is admittedly a ton) but gives more overall HPs. Like say 75 instant HP on a 2.5s cooldown which would give it an overall HPs of 30.
Whipshot at 20m and play against her, its called “skill”. I dont mean that be harsh but its true. You might not kill Tracer always, but you can sure drive her off and make her think twice before pressuring an area. Its a much better match up than before. You just cannot march around like Rein and old Brig with shield up, you move, then flash it on attacks to let it regen.
I will say a slight increase in shield would help but not more than 50 at most. You will never ever see a 400 pt shield Brig again, or serious damage on Shield bash.
Sure. Why bother requiring playing well to do your job? Lol just make a perma inspire. Why bother making her move at all
A very slight increase to her shield is all she needs imo.
She doesn’t need that much really. Just a few little things.
Done.
Her shield is what killed it for me. At least give it a tiny bit more HP.
10 self hp regen per sec is very bad , and she need to proc it. Over double shield.
Tracer range increase, Maybe brig can increase range too. for her flail.
Ultimate is abit stupid. Too small , and take time to build up.
Dude… Can you just stop ‘‘spamming’’ about her?
No offense but these threads of yours about her arent gonna change her or anything.
You’re not a dev. This fix of yours isnt a fix at all either.
yeah she is like the least picked hero in the game (exept for torb and sombra) but they should do something about that.
Whipshot going through barriers would be really good for her with the amount of shields this game has now.
Yes please. Do it for the Brigitte 1v1s and as well make her have a fair chance against Winston, Rein, Sigma and Oris.
I like to whip shot so much and it could use an impact change. Maybe set cool down on 5 secs so we don’t use it a lot every 4 secs.
in my opinion:
-self heal back as before
-shield healt at 300
-repair pack:
. 5 seconds per charge (lowered from 6 to 5)
. 1.5 seconds for healing (lowered from 2 to 1.5)
doing so, she can heal her team properly and be a bit more strong and have more survivability, avoiding to return to being Op and unkillable as before.
I wouldn’t be too concerned about Fritz’s posts about Brigitte. Like most threads in this site are just hero balance threads or saying the game/blizzard is/are horrible. As well the occasional Moira threads where OP defends her or wants her deleted because skill arguments.
These are all very good suggestions. Not sure about the need for 25m whip shot though, but otherwise I’m in.
