Banner Crafting

I understand this is a "support legend" ability, but it needs to be something every legend can do. I'm so sick of no lives ruining rank because they decide they're going sit there and camp deathboxes. There's ZERO point in waiting for the 3rd since you get next to no points for killing them off anyways, so why even camp other than to be annoying?

They camp the boxes EVEN if the last one alive is a support legend, so I'd say allow them to waste their time, and allow any legend the ability to recover their team, especially when the campers are usually cheaters with wall hacks.

  • @Midnight9746 This to me was a forceful meta-change. Every season we see the same 3 legends on most pro teams or ranked comp teams. This gives an ability that is extremely important which will force the meta-change.

    While I can agree that it would be nice if everyone could do this I do see the practical use of this.

    I think banner crafting is mostly for low elo lobbies anyways. In high elo lobbies, like diamond3+ maybe even lower, there are usually so many squads left later into the game that its usually not worth to bring someone back even if you manage to use a replicator to craft the banner and also find/craft a respawn beacon. Bringing somone back at higher elo is usually just worth if you win the fight and is allowed to use a respawn beacon right away after the fight.

    @Balladalidila Most of my gold lobbies end with 7+ teams left when its ring 5 or 6. Although, I do get what you are talking about.

    They had changed the support class in S17, which allows other teammates squaded with a support legend to be able to craft banners. While this isn't allowing everyone to craft banners, like I would prefer, it means now I can be on a team with a support legend, but be able to run legends like Valkyrie without having to worry about being unable to get my teammates back.
