Yeah i’m that guy again who switched from being a dps to support (Ana/Baptiste main), and it’s fkin annoying that we have 8 types of dps hit-scan mechanics but we only have 2 supports who is hit-scan aim required and the devs are suprised that everybody wants to play dps cuz they are more fun? If i want to HEAL with hit-scan mechanics i have only one choice= Ana’s scope shots. My problem is that why does Ana’s non-scoped shots have to be projectiles?? Sometimes it feels super hard to hit a blinking Tracer, or a dashing double jumping Genji with a projectile, and ofc you could say “Then use your scope shots to hit them and master the Ghostscope techinc” Yeah but if i do that i cannot be aware of my surroundings or at least i cannot deal with them since i have to hit the shot on that Genji and it’s just enough time for the flankin Genji on me to hit a few shurikens and kill me or to deflect my sleepdart. So what if, just imagine for example Tracer as a support character(ofc her gun could heal). I could blink and dodge my flankers, recover health, and i would heal by tracking aim and ofc something different ult. Just give us more supports who HEAL by a hit-scan aim, not like Baptiste with who i cannot hit those flying Pharahs(or very rarely), or those Genjis. Whatever, i just want to heal with a weapon like Soldier’s, or Mccre’s…
Your title says no hits scan support, your post then details two hit scan supports…
Well Baptiste is like like support Junkrat.
Naming 2 hit scan supports directly contradicts that title lol.
Asking for more is fine, but don’t be suprised if they don’t come.
Supports typically have a different style than dps and that’s fine.
I started reading to point out Ana & Baptiste, and I stopped reading when you contradicted yourself by acknowledging them.
Even if we’re generous and interpret that title as “A support who heals via a hitscan method” (which Baptiste doesn’t) that still leaves Ana.
I just want a hitscan support that is like Zen or Lucio.
Do you think “hit scan” means auto weapon spam or something? Because that’s not what means… Ana’s healing is hit scan.
Only half the time. I understand where the OP is coming from. I’ve asked for this myself and people just don’t seem to understand the desire to heal with hitscan mechanics.
I posted this concept back in the day but people were basically just like ‘shut up and play Moira.’ 
While its not hitscan necessarily that is the lack of it it is more I want a sustain fire hitscan.
Dva, S76, Wrecking Ball, Bastion, Sombra, and Tracer all have a style of hitscan I enjoy. The concentrated sustain fire that can be spread or a bit of precision.
Baptiste is a wonky mix between precision such as McCree and S76. Ana is straight up not the style of hitscan I want and its only scoped. Mercy would feel so much better if she had a hitscan pistol or a hitscan version of Dva’s light pistol.
Hey I’ve been a support main in every game I’ve ever played that had supports. Have you considered some of us enjoy not shooting? They released Baptiste specifically to appeal to dps mains and they still wont switch off dps and none of the support mains want to touch his clunky boring kit with a 10 foot pole.
I appreciate that, but to get taken seriously click bate is not the way to go about it. You saw how your thread went. There could have been a far better back and forth had you not started off that way.
This is not my thread.
My bad, the way you replied it seemed like it was. My laziness got the better of me.
Even forumgoers are out here making clickbait titles lol
Ana and Bap are literally 2 hitscan healers
It is definitely clickbait, but he is not wrong, the game does lack a reliable healer that heals via hitscan. Your only choice gives away your position and literally has a kit that is projectile based.
This is something I think Blizzard was trying to do with Baptiste. Make the DPS player base have a reason to try a character that also is and has support abilities. I don’t know if making it a three round burst was a good idea, I don’t mind it. But I feel they could’ve done anything else.
It does sound kinda fun if they made like a Soldier 76 hero but their rounds healed team mates
No, because you have to aim your heals which means you spend more time shooting teammates than enemies. Can confirm, as a DPS, that is literally the last thing I wanted and if I did want it Ana is right there. How the heck do you make the same exact mistake twice? Ridiculous.
I understand where OP is coming from. The title is misleading sure, but not the sentiment behind it. Ana is only hit scan when scoped. But she is projectile when unscoped. It is these conflicting mechanics that make her weird to use. Particularly when there are many cases where you don’t want to be scoped. Baptiste is exactly the same way. Neither of which are pure hit scan supports.
