If
(And I do stress IF)
We want to go back to the days where 5 man rez is potential My ideal form would e either A makei ta series of single target rezes (so basically you press Q and then for 7 or so second s you have access to six charges of instant cast rez)
Alternatively I donāt mind the idea of rez as it was but the orbs being killable. I just think barriers are too easy a solution to an ult that was already attahed to a hero whoās pickrate was good because her competition was awful.
Her.
Sheās well known enough that you donāt have to assume a default male gender for her username.
My bad, I donāt follow her all that much but considering her suggestions I should
Wait, Eeveea is a women? You really do learn something new everyday.
Mercy mains need to unite and boycott Mercy. Sheās never going to get changes until her pick rate drops.
I like these suggestions.
No thank you. I actually enjoy playing Mercy. Iām not going to stop so the stats are manipulated artificially.
hereās the reason why you canāt trust people on these forums lol
Eeveea is a dudeā¦ but sheās also transgender and prefers to be referred to as she/her which should also be respected
sheās transgender thats why. I believe so at least
Well thenā¦
Was he/she actually confirmed to have gender dysphoria?
I donāt know thatās just what people told me when I said eevee was a guy
I modified my post to reflect her feelings, there is a disclaimer on her twitch account, so yeah, my bad x_x but from a first impression kind of thing one can mess up, sorry about that
I would say make it 90 HPS on the primary beam and 50 HPS on the chained beams.
Damage Boost can just stay the same since the variation is in the teammates doing the damage.
The Blaster idea sounds good for making the blaster more reliable when used, but more limited, so you have to think about its use more carefully unlike Unlimited Ammo which just removes thought from managing the ammo.
Other suggestions:
Here my buff/nerf to Mercy.
Valkyrie
Resurrection
So, Valkyrie will be more engaing and will enchant all abilities. Anyway, a 30 second cooldown ability is too long for a simple ability, powerful or weak, and the Blizzard knows it, because they changed Sonic Arrow making it less powerful, but with less cooldown. So the same treatment with the res.
If youāll res someone, it means you have time to heal him too. Your mate will have invincible seconds after rez, and that is the perfect moment to heal. In Valkyrie, this will be more simple: youāll res and thanks chained beam you can heal him and also your team. This will bring the āmore res over timeā that rework promised to us.
If you res, for example, a Tracer, you will be able to heal her fastly. She has 150 HP, res will bring her 75 HP, but you can heal her fastly and this wonāt be problem.
This will make Mercy more decisional: you will think who res! I could res that roadhog, thinking that he will have anyway many HP and he can heal himself, so i res him and i go to heal my mates while he returns healing him and join again in the fight.
Thank you
I thought maybe Valk and Rez could swap. You know, Valk as an E ability while old rez was brought back with changes; LoS requirement to rez and a 1s casting time (maybe), while Valk just lets you fly for a shorter time for about 8s every 30s? Not sure what to tweak.
But I like the idea that her rez is earned. Current rez feels like its handed to you on a platter, which is why I liked how the prev rez worked, you worked your butt off to get rez ready.
Also coming from the GM Mercy player, you have my respect and i wholeheartedly support this idea.
Really odd that this is the only Mercy feedback thread allowed to stay upā¦ hmmmmā¦
Overall I like the proposed changes here. Iām hoping Blizzard revisits Mercy at some point, but I understand that theyāre currently busy with reworking other heroes. I personally still play Mercy, even though I was sure I would give her up for good. But I find that my main motivating factor for playing Mercy still, is her consistent healing. Iām not good with managing Moiraās healing resource meter, Iām not consistent enough with Ana to be valuable to my team, and Brigitteās primary heal is on a noticeable cooldown.
The main problems that I have with Mercy involves the current state of res, the current state of Valkyrie, and the emphasis on becoming a battle Mercy. In fact from my personal experience, securing kills seems about the most reliable way of getting PoTG with her. I feel like to some extent Valkyrie should provide some sort of benefit to resurrect, but instead itās the exact opposite. Her blaster is what gets its performance amplified, while res remains completely unchanged. To me that is completely backwards.
I would much rather Blizzard put less emphasis on increasing Mercyās dps output, and more so think of meaningful ways to actually improve the performance of her supportive capabilities during Valkyrie. Although I will admit that currently Valkyrie can output a lot healing on its own, I strangely still feel like my impact just isnāt that high due to the very gradual healing per second value that her chained healing beams offer. Perhaps if Mercy had her healing/damage boost values amplified during Valkyrie and you could more reliably keep one team member up, like how you suggested; then Iām sure using Valkyrie would feel a lot more rewarding to actually use. I personally really like that recommendation of yours because you get to make a crucial decision to specifically focus your efforts on helping to keep a certain key target alive, which has the potential to swing the fight in your teamās favor.
I would honestly be lying if I didnāt say that my current my mindset when I use Valkyrie is: āGuys group up and push in when I ult, and letās hope for the best.ā But as much as I like your proposed change to Valkyrie, Blizzard would have to keep a real close eye on the power of Pharah/Mercy. For those 12 seconds not only would Pharah be significantly harder to kill, but her rockets would do significantly more damage. Maybe even going so far as to being able to 1 shot a full health 200hp hero, with a single direct impact. So perhaps double her healing per second value during Valk, at the cost of chain healing/damage boosting, and reduce the amplification of her damage boost to maybe 35-40%?
I know everyone has their different views on Mercy, and her current state in the game, and I can respect that. Personally I just feel like Mercy, although viable, is in a pretty weird spot right now. Sheās definitely in a usable condition, but it just feels like a lot of what goes on is sort of out of your control. At least in my opinion anyway.
If it was shunted into the mega-void, I think that even the British perennial Mercy hater would raise a stink over it. But only because of how big a name EeveeA is.
I find these ideas not so great for a few reasons
