Reminder to delete role passives

Just nerf healing/sustain and (soft) rework support immortalities. The DPS passive is a bad bandaid fix.

The only passives that should exist are character specific passives and out of combat healing. You can keep the tank one for 5v5, it doesn’t matter because the mode is fundamentally flawed.

We keep repeating this cycle of buffing sustain to compensate for DPS passive being added/buffed, and then buffing the DPS passive to compensate for more sustain? Maybe if the DPS passive didn’t exist, we wouldn’t need this repeat cycle…

Characters will benefit from role passives at varying rates. Someone like Junkrat will naturally get the short end of the stick, and the power discrepancy will only increase when you buff it more. You shouldn’t need the passive as a requirement to pierce through the insane healing numbers…

I dont even care about the larger projectile and healthpool changes that much anymore. Just remove this passive nonsense; get it out of here.

I think the tank passives are just as bad, if not worse. Sustain is a Tank+Support problem, not just Support, after all.

I agree but idrc about 5v5 at all, tbh.

put the dps passive to 20% against tanks and remove headshot reduction, game fixed.

Ah, I see. You were talking about for 6v6.

Well, we got issues there too atm. Namely, their not touching the mode since releasing it, so we have the sustain tanks running the meta with Orisa+Sig, Orisa+Ram. Even the DPS passive isn’t keeping those in check.

Or just remove all the role passives entirely and nerf burst healing. That’s the change we asked for in S8, then they gave us the S9 garbage.

It should be removed in both modes, but for the tank one specifically, keep it in 5v5 for all i care.

Its ironic that the laziest version of 6v6 feels much better 5v5.

I’ve heard a genius idea on forums that Ana+Zen can take care of these chuds with shields. Just wait till dps breaks shield, throw anti nade and discord orb and they’ll die. Doesn’t seem to work when I play though. Maybe skill issue on my part idk

If Tanks can get headshot again, they’re going to need more healing.

DPS passive removed entirely.
