Im trying to think of good ideas for new support hero! What kind of ideas would you like?
Drone support.
Give them hamony orb esk drones, maybe 3 each providing a different utlity.
Like a healing drone, a damage boost drone, and a sheilding drone.
On top of that make their weapon a cone shaped beam.
We need more heros that are about resource management, gamesense, and positioning, the game is meant to be inclusive, we already have so many aim reliant characters
Perhaps a pharah combo other than mercy?
Lock on heal beam but you can shoot at the same time
3 shootable, placeable healing pads which can link up to form a large one
Healing beam that goes through allies
Health Station
Creates a 4 meter healing field that pulses every second. Allies hit by the pulse will restore 200 HP over 5 seconds. Staying in the field will only refresh the HoT. Multiple stations (3) can be used. They don’t stack. And they can stick to surfaces. They can also be destroyed/hacked.
Offering
Use your HP to heal massive hp to any ally on the field regardless of their location or obstacles in the way. Pairs with 1st ability.
Channel/Prayer ability
Roots user in place but all allies recieve passive healing while user is rooted regardless of location.
Parting gift
On user’s death, gives heals to allies within range.
Stock healing
Starts as small, single target heal. Holding ability while doing good performance in other things (example, mercy healing allies, damage boost assist, etc) powers up ability. At Max charge, it will be an AOE with great heals. No cooldowns but needs the healer to have high performance to max charge ability.
I’d love a micro-manager healer. Someone who can provide a million different types of utility at once, but managing/optimizing it all is extremely daunting.
A healer that is extremely difficult, with a high skill ceiling, but out of pure management instead of largely mechanical aim.
Area that instantly instantly heals all heroes inside after certain delay.
Do damage and heal target for a percentage healed or something similar.
Sacrifice part of your health to heal target
Channel and instantly heal target after delay.
I actually love this idea, but how would you keep them from being OP?
I mean a damage boost drone and a heal drone means that this character is just Mercy, except if Mercy could heal and damage boost at the same time
but also if Mercy could shield teammates at the same time too
like it just sounds like Mercy but way better
Very small numbers. Like a 10% damage boost, and 25hps ECT
Time travel tech similar to Tracer. You target a person and rewind their health. The damage never happened.
Anyone play Warframe? Trinity could make a solid character with just a couple tweaks.
Imagine this.
Ability 1: Well of Life
Mark enemy player for death, a percentage of damage dealt to enemy is emitted as AoE healing for allies
Ability 2: Vampire
Mark enemy player for death, upon death, enemy resets all nearby allies’ CDs
Alternate fire: Link
Share damage with an enemy player
Ultimate: Blessing
Heals nearby allies to 100% health, applies damage resistance to all allies, amount of damage resistance scales with amount of hp restored
