Doesn’t exist.

But there was a patch directly to Live, with Baptiste and Torb buffs.

Well since they put surprise balance changes in this patch, we probably won’t see a PTR balance patch for another two weeks so they can gather data and to make sure these changes don’t bring a completely new meta and require different changes, which in turn will take another 3 weeks to be put to live.

The balance glacier has spoken, and now the balance glacier must fall silent.

You can take this two ways.

  1. She doesn’t actually need buffs right now.
  2. The developers don’t care.

Pick one!

I can literally go for a coffee while I’m holding m1 healed that tank and I will still not have healing that tank fully because of her crap healing output

I pick option 1. She saw a lot of use during OWWC and even during stage 4 of OWL. So, it’s not the hero that’s the issue it’s the players who are playing her.

What would you be willing to give up for more BURST healing?
Her output is fine (overall healing) she lacks burst as she was never designed for it.
So what is the trade-off for getting rid of her consistent, autolock healing and making her more of a burst healer like the others?
