Im all for mass rez to be pulled back into the game.

BUT. with greater restrictionsā€¦

I made a joke on here and it got lots of laughs. That we NEED mass rez back. Because when the team goes aimlessly running in and just dies all at the same time after running into the enemy team. It gives the team something to be LESS toxic about and provides relief to the healers in this game, whom are already overburdened.

Mass rez was VERY OP, they should have INSTEAD gave it a 15-25% returned health pool upon rez. With ONLY players in direct Line of site, that would be rezā€™d. The reason why the Pros didnā€™t like it (I dont speak for all). Was because at the end of the Payload race, the PL sat there and the other team got EVERY last player down, EXCEPT The Mercy player. They had to search for this hiding mercy player and then out of nowhere you heard ā€œHEROES NEVER DIE!!ā€ Right as that overtime bar was trickling down. Well now that the players are back up and running, the game was going yet again, while mercy built her ultimate up again. Which forced double or even triple overtimes.

Many of us on here, thought that is exactly what they would do. They would Reduce Mass rez LOS and itā€™s ability. but instead when we all turned on that patch that fateful morning 1 year ago to this very week. It was NOT well-received and the forums have been lit up since then.

I myself, wish they would just put the ability back on, so the Community can Heal itself and move on to other things. :slight_smile:

LOS + the beta cast time, replace invulnerability with a slight damage reduction, and maybe possibly give living allies in the range a small 50-100 hp burst heal

Put Valk as one of her abilities so now she has more options to move around and try to survive to rez her team without the need of hiding

Nope. Multiple resurrects happening in this game disrupts the flow and naturally creates an atmosphere where Mercyā€™s life is way more valuable than anyone elseā€™s by a margin that this game doesnā€™t want. The value of revivals is inherently different from that of kills, and several of them happening at once can never be healthy for this game.

Even with a cast time or any other type of restriction, the potential to disrupt the flow is still there, except now with added wonkiness that makes using it extremely uncomfortable for Mercy and her team. Resurrect was never an overpowered ultimate, it was just horribly unhealthy for what it created, and adding limitations to it would just leave Mercy with an ultimate that wouldnā€™t feel conventional to use while retaining all of its previous problems, if not enforcing them.

Howā€¦ innovative. xD Iā€™m sorry but reading your thread, it sounded like you just came over this carzy new idea of reverting Mercy to mass rezz.
Getting to the point -> yeah, itā€™s the only way to transform Mercy into a hero again.

People like to say Mass-Ress was OP even though Mercy was never a must-pick or A-Tier before her reworkā€¦something just doesnā€™t add upā€¦:thinking:

Itā€™d be alright as long as she is given some sort of new E ability elsewhere since she was F and D tier for most of her existence when she had mass Res. Titaniumā€™s suggestion is pretty good :100: :+1::

Nope. Iā€™ll agree that Mercy could use a little help at the moment but I want it out for good.

No offense to any Revertcyā€™s here, but it feels like you keep trying to call an ex thatā€™s not coming back despite how much you want them to.

mercy would be underpowered and they would complain for her to be buffed

Iā€™ll point you towards titaniumā€™s megathread.

Mass res needs to stay mass dead, periodā€¦

Donā€™t be ignorant just because you personally didnt like it. Mass res was a troll pick until the invunerability patch.

If we can go 30 minutes w/o one of these posts that would be insane

Dude everyone hates Rez outside of the rez user. Can it entirely and give her some better stuff in the rest of her kit. Mass rez is awful and the only reason anyone wants it is because it was in the game before. Thatā€™s the ONLY justification for wanting it back; otherwise itā€™s a terrible idea balance wise.

No. We do not need it back, as a tank/support player I never liked it either: this is not DPS whining. It was just not a fun or balanced function.

Comments like this for example. The only way to turn her back into a hero? Really? They released a hamster ball with guns and the game is better for it. There are a million things they could add to Mercy to make her better, they do not need to add back an ability that everyone hates.

This is objectively false.

Dude itā€™s a hyperbole. Please do not split hairs about it.
