Swagger.1459 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 1- Reevaluate base health. 2- Improve heal support skills, roles, and mechanics as a counter to damage output. And considering this is a team based game, and heal support is a balancing factor to damage, this is logical.3- Might want to consider raising player limits to something like 7v7 normally for matches to make more possible openings for support roles on teams. And I came from a game that was primarily 8v8, and around that number seemed to work well in pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiyo.3578 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 11k Hp seems fine on thief but not guard or ele. There's a reason these two classes are stuck in support roles all the time, especially ele.It does honestly feel like support is a nearly useless role outside of AT's and a great way to lower your rating in ranked.

Kuma.1503 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Supports still work, but I don't recommend playing it without a trusted duo. There's no use healing your teamates if they face tank every burst and instant down after you've just rezzed them. Find yourself a pvp partner if you plan on playing support in ranked. It will help you maintain your sanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an easy problem to solve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an easy problem to solve. I would personally stray away from raw healing as support ability, healing for some is fine but if its the main thing support does then it becomes very binary, and a stat check. Giving superspeed, short stealth, ripping boons, creating walls, soft cc are much more healthy IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
