Attack Boost is a problem for many reasons.
Like it doesn’t require line of sight.
And can boost way more damage out. (one shot meta)
So what if we trade it out for something closer for Mercy playstyle.
Like Cloaking.
Sounds kind of iffy when she can also rez imo.
yeah, but she isn’t likely gonna be the only rez support forever.
Cloak Rez is a literal stat in Destiny anyway.
It’s not hated.
sounds OP until you realise that mercy is still going to have a beam coming from a location which makes it easy to locate mercy so i actually like this idea because its not going to be helpful in every situation but it can help in a few

Welp it was one of the reasons Omnioculus was nerfed though. But in endgame PvE i still cloak rez
Just remove her from the game until Mercy players are willing to admit it needs reworked.
Not just a hunter thing anymore. I have cloaked as a stormcaller alot lately.
But really Defenders are taking it to the next level.

Mercy is fine as is. Address the bloated/OP DPS heroes she pockets.

Mercy is basically the dealer, and your putting the blame on her druggies.

No, it’s DPS heroes that are not balanced properly.

Mercy used to not be a problem. She wasn’t adjusted. Changes were made to DPS and suddenly Mercy’s the problem?
Again, nerf Sojourn (and possibly more hitscan)'s damage and we’re good.

Meanwhile Zen needs line of sight to be effective as a buff support.
Same limitations with others.
But Mercy has none.
Not that long ago Mercy was essentially a throw pick. Help me out, tell me what buff she received that moved her from a throw pick to meta?

It was more nerfs to other heroes that undid her as a throw pick.
Even now Sojourn isn’t the only one shot.
Junkrat and Widowmaker also being used with Mercy.
So to repeat, fix the problems with DPS. Mercy isn’t the issue. I mean…this game would do well if there was a 15% damage reduction across the board.

Yeah no, the other supports would not like 15% damage reduction
Damage boost is her primary source of damage. You’d need to replace it with something that can supplement her damage in a similar way, or she won’t contribute to kills and will be useless compared to other supports.
If cloaking is used properly that won’t be an issue.
Unless you don’t try to use your gun at all and hide in a corner all day.
That’s bad
(Looking at Roadhog)
didnt know we had so many destiny 2 players here, stasis or void warlock is best, i just cant wait for strand
I love how Mercy was considering weak when the game launched and now with 0 changes done she’s ultra mega OP
