This post is a wish list Of raids in overwatch and how it can work
personally i believe overwatch should have a 12 man raids game mode in OW2 now do i think is should come on launch day NO BUT do i wish it to come a a future update YES!!!
Yes i know a lot of people are ask how would raids even work in OW in general? what the point of having a raids with little rewards? how can it have mechanics?
And All will be explain in the post.
What is a raid?
A raid is a challenging Dungeon with back to back Bosses that also has different phases while fighting
How Would raids be setup balance wise
i believe Raids should have 3 tanks 3 healers and 6 DPS. Now i know there a few questioning saying only 3 healers? and i yes to that because there are a lot of AOE healers in this game and maybe doing 4 is over doing it and also don’t forget OW2 PVE had healing items to help in story mode demo that can also be use as healing for other heroes.
Rewards System
Now i know someone asking whats the point of doing raids its not like destiny and we get armor something. but it can be thought. rewards can be split up on the difficulty
-
Easy - get 1000 tokens
-
Normal - get 1000 tokens and 3 loot boxes
-
Hard - get 7 loot boxes
-
Expert - Get 3 moveable sparys (exclusively only to the raid)
-
Legendary - Get 3 Legendary Skins (exclusively only to the raid)
when you see Exclusively only to raid only way to unlock those moveable sparys or those skins is only threw raids (aka you can’t buy them nor unlock them from loot boxes)
How Would Raid mechanics work?
tbh that is an easy answer Destiny 2 has great raid mechanics as a first person shooter and blizzard can easily borrow some of ideas or even use ideas for WoW with Enemy AOEs only thin there needs to be is a big battle field for all the fights and phases that give players a challenge and a goal to complete raids.
Also if this does get put in a game i hope they add like 4 raids a year
