Idea Mage Healing Change

Love it, also like the half ruined blackout in the background.

 

Personally I think mage heal spell is fine at the moment. I would've supported a change like this prior to the crit buff, however half the classes in the game 2-3 shot mage through heal spell rn.

 

Eh, you do bring up some interesting points, but the fact remains that mage requires a decent amount of skill. The majority of the players that are good with it have some War/WarZ/WildWest experience. The kit takes months to become proficient at, and the majority of potentials lose interest rather quickly, without connections to WarZ/War/WildWest. The kit requires a multitude of skills of all aspects, which is why I say that it's fine the way it is now.

However, I do believe that the insane knock-back received from the lightning is far too great. I've rack up around a ten kill-steak for each death comboing it with flame and damage.

 

This is interesting, I don't know about it, it seems sort of weird.

 

It's quite simple actually. He's suggesting that mages are given five uses of the Heal Spell, and the only way to obtain more is through a medic or dying.

 

The Heal is fine, in my opinion, but the mage should definitely be nerfed to compensate for it's heal powers.

 

so you are saying mage is op because of its heal but its heal is fine so we should nerf the rest of its spells?

 

My apologies, that was worded awkwardly.

I was essentially saying that if you did take out the heal, or nerf it, Mage would be underpowered. However, with the heal, it would be overpowered. I'm saying we find a modicum of balance to it, and you can do that by nerfing its other spells, preferably lightning.

 

To be honest, I have recently unlocked mage and I'm really really having fun with how the class is right now. We die easily, and when I say easily, I mean EASILY. A ninja can kill us with 4 hits, Heavy has the potential to crit a mage out with just 2-3 hits. The health pool right now is fine, it allows a newcomer trying to learn mage more easy. But, it takes a great amount of skill to even be decent.

 

It seems good to me, I would love to see Mage get some debuffs. You see, I main elf and I can't get to melee range without getting down to 1 steak and then I get launched back and then the process restarts. Elf shield does crap against Mage, It doesn't deflect the damage spells at the Mage, it gets destroyed with one lighting bolt and then you gotta run away or die. But that's just me.

 

Personally I think there should be a way to regenerate said heal spells (like 1 every 1:30 or something of the sort) but it's fine either way

 

hmm it's an interesting idea but imo weakens the mage a bit too much. Yes, it would be very nice for people who don't main/regularly play mage but it would severely impair the level at which those that do play. If the heal spell did need a nerf I'd suggest a longer cool down time rather than a set amount of heals but it's a neat concept

 

Interesting idea, as the Mage's heal spell does need a change. However, I do believe this has a problem. Being able to heal back to full with one click in an instant seems better than the heal spell Mage already has. While the current heal spell is very useful, it does take time to build back up the hearts, and if one can continuously wail out on the Mage who is attempting to heal, chances are you'll kill them (I've done it many times, and so have others against me). This is the Chemist heal, but better in most ways (and chemist Insta health is pretty good), and it could use some refining.
