Blizz can’t balance Res on E?

Blizz can’t balance Res on E?

True, they should just gut the ability and replace it.

[CuppaJo-11973]

Well, in that stay Ress still was gross to use and Valkyrie was a joke of an ult, so balance wise she might have been okay, but she was not rewarding to play. This rework was a mess and an year of them trying to force it to work did the game no favors.

[BadWidowEU-2419]

Couldnt agree with you more. That or a rework with mass Res.

[ThisLoser-11645]

Couldnt agree with you more. That or a rework with mass Res.

Not gonna lie my bias prevents me from ever wanting a change that includes Res in it.

[BadWidowEU-2419]

That’s fine. I just care about fun and balance.

At least their clearly trying to make Mercy better

I find it kind of inverse that a handful of Mercy mains are highly vocal and negative(Towards Blizzard) even when their hero gets a buff spamming the forums with thread after thread.

One more reason I respect Bastion mains that much more. Despite playing the most ignored/neglected hero I don’t see them spamming the forums with threads about him. No, I see them keeping it contained to a handful of civlized threads about him, most notably @ChibiFox thread that has of 16 thousand comments and almost 500 likes and it’s not even a locked thread since they keep things calm over there.

well said, Aero

This guy has been raiding mercy posts since the PTR announcement, trying to converse is kind of a pointless effort.

So you guys can make the Mercy posts but nobody can enter to disagree with you? Really?

[Megadodo-11847]

But… Do or do not. There is no try.

These changes are more than merely trying

that are tangible and substantial improvements to the overall ability of this character

[BadWidowEU-2419]

Especially if they wants to claim that Mercy wasn’t garbage when statistics painted another story.

[CuppaJo-11973]

Oh you can, but people’s arguments are usually fueled by “I hated the Mercy meta and as payback I want her to be terrible forever.”, and not facts.

[Megadodo-11847]

They’re really not trying at all.

again, incorrect

this set of changes is a significant buff to Mercy

changes that had to be planned, specced, coded, unit tested, QA’ed, documented and released

[ThisLoser-11645]

Oh you can, but people’s arguments are usually fueled by “I hated the Mercy meta and as payback I want her to be terrible forever.”, and not facts.

I hated Mercy Meta because I hate Res. I hope that means you wont take everything I say as Mercy hate because of it though.

[Megadodo-11847]

You think a revert is only bringing back old code. What do you want me to do about that?

Again, it can be a revert or a buff. It doesn’t matter.

I dont think it

I actually know it

[Zaehelhm-1222]

its safe to assume you havent actually played mercy for a long time. therefore your opinion means literally nothing.

If that’s your view then you have no say in anything when it comes to balance.

[Kounosuke-11392]

You’re grasping at thin air. They nerfed and partially referted a nerf. Its not a lot of work they have to do when its a few variables they can edit and test.

Merely MercyUltimateHeal: “60” instead of “50”. Not a whole block text of fresh variables and arguments to test and debug.

[BadWidowEU-2419]

Then you’re just lying to yourself.

[WildElements-1760]

It’s a roundabout revert without actually reverting the HPS nerf, which she didn’t need with the other supports getting buffed. This isn’t trying. This is damage control.

[CuppaJo-11973]

. I hope that means you wont take everything I say as Mercy hate because of it though.

You can hate it all you want, I hate Tech Visor, I hate Hanzo, Doomfist, and a couple more things, but do you see me campaingning to get them deleted from the game? Or them to be F-tier? There’s plenty of frustrating mechanics in the game.
