Should Brigitte get something back?

Considering the new 2 nerfs to Brigitte in the PTR, should she get some of the previous nerfs reverted?

Cooldown on shield bash should reduced and its damage should get a little buff.

Also, Rally should be reworked to be as effective -if somehow different- to Lucio’s ult.

Like triggering inspire instead gives a small burst of temporary armor?

Sorry, meant Rally, her ult :slight_smile:

I think she needs to be removed and reworked.

Aside from her breaking the game so badly they nerfed nearly all tanks, she’s just going to end up a pathetic pile of nerfs at the end of this. It would be better just to pull her out and rethink her entire design.

She could get a Jetpack Cat emote.

Have him zip around like Snowball.

I like her kit; just think she needs better tinkering with her stats.

The problem that is requiring this whole tank and armor rework doesn’t lie with Brigitte or the tanks. The origin is the open comp system we have.

If there was a forced 2-2-2 system balance wouldn’t be an issue. They could leave tanks, armor, and brig as she is right now.

It’s nice to have imaginative comps, though. Also some heroes really need non 2-2-2 comps, like I always try to run three DPS if I have a teammate insist on running Sombra because you need the extra damage.

I think 3 dps is fine.

There are a couple of threads out there that propose systems that force you into min-max systems where you could for example get 3 dps in one team, but never more than 2 supports.

It’s not a good place for the game balance to be if DPS are openly worse than tanks or supports, and people only pick them because they have to.

Dps should not be worse. It’s not like that. But if you do end up having these kind of systems, balance would be so much easier for every single hero.

Exactly! Right now it is really hard to balance heroes for situations where you are stacking them like 3/3 but also for situations where you might only be running 1 or 2 of them like 2/2/2 or 3/2/1, or God forbid 5/0/1.

As someone who plays and likes Brig, this may come off as a defeatist attitude but at this point she shouldn’t get anything back. Really have to see how this is going to play out, they obviously they did this for OWL, whether that is right or wrong is entirely opinion. The thing is her kit is still pretty good and forgiving, this is a tank nerf more than a Brig nerf.

Rally should give at lest 200 or 250 armor.
