I understand what you're talking about and I felt the same way as I played this new Sunflower. But, there is a huge problem in "just buffing her damage or fire rate". She would become the hardest hero to kill due to her kit (if you have all perks unlocked you will understand what I mean but I'll tell you...).
Later on, when you unlock everything, she has super powerful healing upgrades. She can heal another player at the same exact time and also overheal them as well. That means you are basically 2 sunflowers. The other upgrades like Cocoon can increase the overheal amount. Another perk can also allow you to increase the rate of healing when allies are at critical health.
The thing is, she can heal/overheal herself using the first perk I talked about. You just try to find another player and the second beam will go towards you.
I can already out gun a foot soldier thanks to her sun drops ability (and the other abilities It talked about), not as fast as GW1/GW2 though.
What I'm trying to say is, if they wanted to buff her damage, they have to balance her other kit so that she doesn't become Kernel Corn but way much better.
Maybe they can add those as "upgrades" later on. You can sacrifice ability slots for more damage for example.
- @GammaX6 ok thanks i didnt knew this yet i will try to play her some more to unlock her upgrades
Her damage or rate of fire needs buffing regardless her kit (GW1 and GW2 were much more formidable killers than the new one).
- @spIash_damage I agree sunflower's not strong enough. I have the double beam & yes, you can use it to heal yourself at the same time as another player. I've found that amazingly useful on town quests etc while helping friends (anyone still stuck on plants in town wanting a healer just shout!) but the beam locks somewhat unpredictably onto the nearest players, and you can't nudge it in the direction you want it to go unless you try moving around. The only way to continually heal yourself is for you & another player to completely isolate yourself from the rest of the team. And even if you can manage that, it's still not enough to keep you on your feet when you're being targeted by multiple players with high damage abilities - which any healer is.
I can understand the point being made that on heals she's effectively 2 sunflowers, but the scientist heal spray is also very effective on more than one player, both healers provide overhealth, and scientists have a higher damage weapon & a warp . . .
I love BFN & a lot of the abilities sunflower now has, but it's a relief to be able to hop back into GW2 and feel I can not only heal my team but also defend myself & get respectable vanquishes
