Lifelines ult should be changed. Shes a medic. So maybe one called LIFELINK. Where everyone in squad share thier health equally with eachother for 20 seconds and after remaining health is then split evenly with surviving members. Make the distance squad need to be close about two thirds size of lobas black market. Recharge time of 180 seconds. She is a medic after all!!!!
I like the idea of her getting an ult redo, I was thinking less of a link and more of a circle of healing, similar to the LTM. I think 2/3 of lob's ult is still fine, but I am thinking that doc just fly up over an area and heals the team within it.
Her package can be really helpful though.
Especially in ranked when you are desperate for a purple or needing more cells etc.
@Tad844 I second this. Lifeline used to take skill to play as an aggressive combat medic, now she's been delegated to nothing more than a heal bot that people have no respect for. I legitimately had someone jump in-between 3 squads shooting at each other, go down, spam chat for a revive in the open without any cover, get killed off (because there was no cover), turn around and call ME dog crap for not coming to revive them.
I think the passive should be reverted to its old state, faster revive, fast heals, and the directional revive shield that requires LL to stay put while reviving someone.
Her Q should be changed to a castable that sticks onto targets, casting Q while looking at a teammate deploys a minature DOC drone that hovers over the shoulder (and thus can be destroyed by enemies) that recovers 5 health per second and caps at 50 health recovered max. 2 charges, each charge takes 25 seconds to recover, and holding Q casts the ability on yourself. You need line of sight to cast this, and you cannot cast through doors or solid objects.
Ulti changed to an empowered revive. Ulting before reviving someone causes DOC to cast a larger revive shield, for it to remain for 2 seconds after completing a revive, and gives the revivee a speed boost (similar to Bangalore's Passive) for 1 second. This has a 5 minute cooldown, so teammate mechanics (AKA spam pinging Ulti-Accelerants) won't change, and it's now in everyones best interest to use the Ulti-Accels.
they reall ƒukked her. auto rez isnt strong enough of a buff to take away fast heal. i could go with or without auto rez as previously her shield while rezzing could be used very tactically. now its less tactical. still has some use, but less. just my 2cents.
