Rose the Overlord

I don’t think this even needs explaining, I know a lot of characters got really buffed, but rose is as if the entities above sacrificed themselves to make a terminator destined to end all life on earth. Enough of the blabbering, rose is a SUPPORT character, I don’t think support characters are supposed to be one of the most, if not strongest offensive player. The homing missiles do 11 dmg each! This can almost instantly kill players from far distances if you have certain upgrades. Also, she is basically and imp or acorn now, jumping around everywhere while landing free homing shots, while the poor (insert any zombie here) gets harassed into oblivion, and also I think we should buff citrons offense a little!

    @TheSprinter85 Nice to hear that. Nothing like Enigma to protect while reviving. 🙂 How ironic that rose is better for reviving than sunflower...

    @JusticeHeroX I personally don't have the revive upgrades on as I've mained Sunflowers for years in GW & GW2 and reviving is just something I do, no matter what I'm playing - it's an automatic reaction, I don't care about gaining health for doing it.

    It's so true & sad what you say about Rose being able to revive better - my BFN stats show I've revived more plants as Rose, Night Cap & Citron than I've managed as Sunflower (& not for want of trying 😥)

    @JusticeHeroX  Super Saviour an excellent upgrade to use for Rose, it only costs 1 upgrade point, is automatically unlocked, and allows you to Enigma revive. That gives you free XP and gives a free speed boost to the revived teammate, as well as having assistance in a fight. I think it's really good to use (but a bit evil too 👿). I love this upgrade and I suggest that people use it when playing as Rose. It's also excellent because you can assist your teammates in battle while reviving via a Jinx or a Goatify in the zombies' general direction. I've even been Gravity Grenaded and still revive people.

    @ToastedSarnie  I LOVE reviving people! I do it for fun! In GW2, I did it so much that I would sometimes try to revive someone right in the middle of the opposing team, that's how much I enjoyed it, which is why I really liked the healer characters! I find reviving much easier in BFN because the ability to strafe slightly and of Rose and Citron being really good at reviving (Rose because of "Super Saviour" and Citron can shield himself and teammates behind him while doing so without any upgrades). It doesn't which character I am, I still revive people. There are lots of people who don't revive, I'm not one of them. I think the healer support characters should have more perks to help them revive as well (try Sunflower with "Super Saviour" upgrade and see if she can Sunbeam while doing so, I haven't tested it yet!😇).

    @TheSprinter85 Great! Yes, the Super Saviour is a good one generally.
    I find it harder reviving as a rule in BFN, as I miss being able to jump revive to a safer position, though.

    Am also disappointed that the Rose upgrade Epiphany only heals yourself - I miss the GW2 Arcane Lotus.

    Support characters definitely need more reward. Without that, especially as Rose & Engineer don't build teleporters, there will always be less emphasis on the support role.

    @ToastedSarnie  I agree, support characters need more reward. Having this upgrade (Super Saviour) is one of the best perks about them. I think that Rose and Engineer should be able to also revive as fast as a healer support. I really liked using Arcane Lotus in GW2, I bought it as soon as I first saw the alternate ability. The "epiphany" upgrade seems to heal you more, but it does not heal your teammates, I think it should heal teammates too, but cost 5 upgrade points instead of 4.

    @ToastedSarnie Yeah I was gonna put a specific zombie but I just remembered that all of them are OP so I just went with “poor zombies”. And I really do want 12v12 back!
