Please remove Resurrect

It’s the only thing holding Mercy back. Without Rez, she could have an actual ultimate and impactful healing. Resurrect is hated by those who don’t like Mercy and it’s frustrating to play against as well as to use. With removing it, Blizzard would do everyone a favor.

Honestly yeah. Mercy went downhill the second they put rez on e and have been nerfing around it ever since while refusing to really look at rez as the issue. And it will always be extremely powerful no matter the restrictions you put on it (ie the slow cast time, reduced movement speed, etc) because if you can callout you’re doing a rez a teammate can just bubble or shield you.

I’d personally be fine with removing it, or at least restricting it to only being able to use it during an ult

So take the core aspect that makes mercy iconic away? That’s like taking hack away from sombra since people find it “unfun”

I have no problem with rez on E personally. Up until the recent -10hps Mercy’s base kit only improved with the GA changes. I’m still not sure if I feel the -10hps was necessary.

I say make rez her ult again and DEAL WITH IT instead of whining.

Agreed. It is a fun ability, but really doesn’t belong in an FPS like overwatch. Super finicky to balance a pesudo character advantage when it isn’t tied to some sort of skill-test.

tbh i have nothing against rez (from both perspectives) i wouldnt like it taken out from her because its like removing torb’s turret or rein’s shield like i said before, it could get tweaks but not a removal

say it with me

OVERWATCH :clap: ISNT :clap: YOUR :clap: AVERAGE :clap: FPS

Overwatch CAME by design with REZ

so if the game CAME with it, it Does fit because it came with it

You see, I could be on board with that idea, but Mercy’s whole design has been around resurrect. That’s why it wasn’t scraped when they removed mass rez. It’s the reason she exists.

What are you talking about res is part of Mercy personality.Without it we dont have Mercy.

The game has changed over time. Other FPS do have rez mechanics and it works in those games, not OW.

Sym originally has a 25 health shield on her e. Should that make a comeback because the game CAME with it?

Should zen go back to 150 hp because that is how the game was?

Widow should go back to 150 dmg bodyshots because this isn’t your average FPS game, the game CAME with that.

your comparing beeing underpowered/overpowered and adjusting values

to literally removing one mechanic completly

Til, sym can still shield on her e.

Reaper doesnt have health orbs anymore, bring them back! :rage:

If a mechanic is continuously showing to be a problem, it makes so much more sense to just remove it and add something else to compensate.

The only problem with the mechanic is the fact that the devs decided to move it from an ULTIMATE to a REGULAR ABILITY

and guess what? ultimates arent meant to be regular abilities.

Resurrect should NEVER ever BE a normal ability

all they have to do is put it on ult, and thats it we pretty much fixed the hero

Rez was trash tier balance wize on ult until they gave it a slight buff, making is extremely overpowered. The thing was so strong that players would quite literally hide in spawn as fights started instead of playing the videogame. It has been a problem holding mercy back since the games release with it either being too bad, too good, or incredibly frustrating to play and fight against.

Removing it is easier and allows for more depth to be added to Mercy in terms of buffs and new abilities.

No just no, dont get me started on this.

How would you hide in spawn as the battle started…what do you get the rez all the way from the spawn to the point?

hide and rez is a farse only newbbie mercies did,

Should we cater the game towards people who are playing it wrong?

if mercy hides, the team gets wiped since its a 5v6, she rezes them all

cool dude now its a normal 6v6 battle,

What did you archieve with that? Nothing, you wasted your ult just to reset a fight you PRUPOSELY LOST

Or you can, you know, heal the team, then, mid battle, as some of your team gets picked…

turning something like a 4v4 into a 6v4 and actually make it useful

hide and rez or whathever your talking about is a redundant strategy that did not get anything done at all

with that logic, Lets nerf swift strike since some genjis use it to rush in and die, and its frustrating that my genji just dies alone

lets delete the turret since some noob torbs just hammer the turret over and over again and its frustrating because i cant kill the turret

oh oh, how about we delete reinharts charge…since some reins use it to rush and die and its “frustrating”

also, i never stated to bring back mass rez, i just said put rez as an ult.

never said the specifics did i

you see, not everyone is. :smiley: i kinda hate love mass rez cuz it has its bad parts about it but also good ones. unless they plan to get it back with decent counter to it and tweaks, id be okay with it. id also be okay with a reworked ult or maybe even removing rez and giving her a new well made ult :smiley:

or you can try to read the many tons and tons of creative suggestions that gave mass rez a decent counter :smiley: which were, you know, ignored :smiley: but hey we got this mercy, they just need to rework her a bit and hopefully in a good way and then boom a good mercy.
