Mercy wants the develop the rifle as a method for long range delivery of her biotic stuff.

However I'm assuming weaponizing it would use the nanomachines offensively. So I guess instead of immediate damage it'd be a powerful damage over time?

That's not mercy's problem. the thing she takes issue with specifically is her Biotic tech being used to hurt people instead of heal

So she has no qualms about using a pistol but she wouldn't use a reverse version of her Caduceus staff that saps the life out of people she tethers.

This.

>>344039180
What if Sombre's attack is essentially Zarya's laser except super long range and requires a line of sight to continuously do damage over time?

It would pretty much be the opposite of Mercy's heal staff that slowly takes people's life down over time.

Design an ult that Sombra would have to make her viable compared to Mercy or Lucio while being a PURE support ult

You can't. Ranged healer seems shit anyways, she would have to out heal Zen for it to be worthwhile. All these maps are chokepoints and tight areas so a ranged healer has no spot.
>>
>>344039809
That's the point, that way she wont outshadow Hanzo or Widow and it would be an interesting new mechanic for a sniper.

Also support sniper anyways.

I bet you ANYTHING it's going to be a sniper rifle that shoots heals over time and damage over time.
Left click pops a DoT and right click pops a HoT. The HoT probably autoaims at your allies a little. The DoT probably bypasses Rein/Winston shield, if not shields in general (fuck you zarya you whore).
Looks like she's got a grenade-mine of some kind? I'd guess it's a defensive emplacement like Venom Mine. Maybe it radiates a constant sonar effect like Hanzo's Sonic Arrow.
She'll also have a mobility move, of course, probably a climb-up-walls thing. I'd like it if hers could stop mid-wall and you could just sit there. That'd be fun.
As for her ult... if I had to guess it'll either be a worthless support Ult (something like your whole team gets a big HoT) or an actually useful offensive Ult (the entire enemy team starts ticking down for 20 hp per second and it doesn't stop for half a minute)

Really grasping for straws now.

So, ideas:

Shift: Load Bionic Canister, essentially swapping between either Healing Biotics or Damaging Biotics
LMB: Primary fire will depend on canister loaded. Healing canister will heal a set amount of HP quickly over time. Could either be a low fire rate and high HP gain or the opposite, where you can stack multiple heals on one character for faster healing. Damaging Canister could instead deal damage over time to enemies hit, again you could stack multiple shots on an enemy to make a more toxic DoT on them. Initial damage is either low or nonexistent
RMB: Zoom ala Widowmaker. Not sure if any firing modes should differ

Ult: gives allies lifedrain

I'm not sure what you could use as an E ability

I guess nobody played killing floor. You literally just shoot people to heal them by certain amounts with cooldown. If you miss then you don't heal. That's it. It's useful as fuck in Killing floor especially since it's a game that revolves around a group of people like overwatch.

There have been so many times where I'm playing Zenyatta and I cannot properly heal my team because I'm pinned around a corner by a 76 or a McCree or whatever that'll pop my ass if I try to get out. Peeking out and applying a 90HP HoT was somewhat decent in those situations, however, and most of the time my team would clear the threat and I could come out, or sometimes I'd even get the drop on him when he wasn't focusing suppressing me and actually kill him myself.
I don't know what they have in store for Sombra but it better not make Zenyatta obsolete.

It's only been known since forever that Sombra = Pharah's mom.

It's fairly obvious, shown off all over in the artwork and there are already a multitude of voice lines that allude to her in the game. Sombra is a sniper who wears a mask to hide their appearance and it just so happens that her mother was also a sniper who """""disappeared""""".

He grew envious of Morrison since, despite the two of them developing the concept for and eventually initiating Overwatch it was Morrison that was dragged into the spotlight as the primary focus. Reyes was there, and it's implied he was only just tolerated by the rest of the members of an Order that he went out of the way [with Morrison] to create. He eventually headed Blackwatch, the "shadow ops" variant of Overwatch which was the start of a descent into egomania, envy and other shit.

I really wish there was a dedicated comic telling this shit in detail so we don't have to pick up bits and pieces.

I think it might work if they keep his healing radius the same, but apply a dropoff in the amount it heals based on distance. it would force Lucio to more actively stick with the team, rather than just having to skate around within 50 feet of someone

Console is being balanced separately from PC. Toblerone had a massive turret damage nerf on consoles.

In one of the videos the devs say before making a new models for the character they take Widowmaker's model and slap some new characteristics on her to see if they're balanced.
>>
>>344045078
The other important thing is Reyes was "Get the fucking job done" while Morrison was "Everyone goes home alive" and the higher-ups liked Morrison's style better.

But man that one week is golden. I hate CSGO and only played it because for years it was literally the only thing my roommate would play but I had tons of fun with the first few days the revolver was added to the game. All those spray pattern memorizing faggots couldn't handle a railgun.

Guess that really helped Morrison be the poster boy for Overwatch while Reyes would put the mission before the man. According to Pharah's comic Sombra was the same--though Winston and Morrison [in-game] will relay to Pharah about how much of a good person Sombra was when she was in Overwatch and about how they loved her dirty underwear to which Pharah disregards their praise because Sombra was either emotionally distant, neglectful or just never around because the mission came first.

I really hope Reyes wasn't on his own. I know it's hinted that the other members just tolerated him and favored Morrison more but I really don't like the idea of Reyes being "that guy". It's too easy to paint him as the villain though he did do a nefarious thing by attempting to murder his best friend out of a dangerous cocktail of envy, desperation, spite and impotence.

Wonder if this will be more like Killing Floor mediguns or TF2 medi xbow. Honestly either was the only way I'd see Sombre going, since the sniping will have to be toned down to leave room for Widow while adding another much needed support
>>
>>344047067
you do know how weak that is

healing from mercy and literally any other healing source is so fast and you don't need to aim

this literally needs to full heal to be viable + give a buff

depending on how fast the sniper is or if it needs charge
>>
I saw this tiny-ass spider-robot thing in the hero concept art.
One of my friends said it could work as a stealth character by being extremely small, invisible to sentries/turrets/mines/whatever and being able to just walk normally on walls and ceilings.
I have had a raging boner ever since.
It won't happen, though.

I hope they don't make her sniper an offensive weapon desu. It'd be lame if she was just a combination sniper-healer but worse at both than the dedicated heroes
>>

Something about her being out of sync with normal time flow without it
Which is why she's still as young as that picture while everyone else aged

>>344048471
It's probably note worthy that this image doesn't have alot of the main cast we have now. And its not just "overwatch" only type characters; as per lucio

Mei, D.va and Zyra are missing for example, and some of the characters imagined originally could have been reworked.

I have a feeling we'll never see that biohazard type dude because he looks/fills such a similar role to a "mei" type character just imagining his weapon alone.

Could be simple like a slow bolt action rifle that does a bit less damage than widowmaker, can fire shots that heal people, rather than heal overtime its instant, ult could be to provide everyone on the team with a damage buff similar to mercy.

What's the point of a sniper-healer when you already got Zenyatta in the game? Unless they're going to repurpose him.

Zenyatta theoretically is like this:

New hero could lack a debuff, require skill based heal, have little or different damage

Overshadowing is a balance issue, not a kit issue. You can just tweak numbers

Also the more hero's there are, it's inevitable others will be used less.

What if Sombra is a stealth character? It's not as if she's going to be an offensive powerhouse. I could see her defensive skill being some manner of stealth. I mean Sombra even means shadow.
