This may be a team game but when a 1/3 of a characters skills needs a teammate just to activate then it’s a little too team balanced.

As for the rest of the responses I’m fully aware of what a good Reyna is capable of when in an organized team. However when you solo que especially if you get newer players a lot of her potential is wasted. Knowing that why pick her rather than a more versatile support?

God forbid a support be capable of defending itself. :smirk:

For the record I was referring to her needing a teammate just to activate one of her skills

Just have to point out all three of your examples were nerfed again in the FU supports update.

But they can still heal well.

As nerfs were a part of his point I couldn’t help pointing out your examples. You could have used Kleese as he, Reyna, and Miko are the only supports that weren’t further hit by this round of nerf bat.
Other than the only class not getting a blanket buff that is

really listing alani after she just took a 33% nerf. ya, ok.

The Alanis I’ve seen are still preforming very well. Her early game is bad but late game she’s still very strong.

Yeah what Blaine said. On paper it may sound bad, but just play her and you’ll see!

I’ve played her, I’ve seen, and I don’t like it. I make it work but I don’t like it one bit.

And to the rest of you, STOP “liking” the ruin Alani committee’s posts. I need y’all to get on board with making Alani (and Mellka) great again! It’s the only way to save Battleborn :smile_cat:.

Disclosure: I am not a pro, nor veteran, fairly new to this game.

I hadn’t unlocked her before the nerf, so I don’t know exactly how powerful she was. But I’ve been playing her a lot recently, and I feel like shes in a good spot, and she feels very comfortable to use.

Your perspective may be more significant compared to ours, we’re used to alani always being a beast but you’re walking into this fresh. Thanks for that!

Stop encouraging him or her! I need a united front to unnerf the nerf and all this positive reinforcement is not helping my cause! :smile_cat:

#243

Your cause is not necessarily my cause, so I shall offer encouragement where I deem fit

I honestly think that Alani went so long unchecked, healing wise, and support as a whole have been so good at doing things, that Alani mains especially have gotten into the mindset that they’re the ones who are supposed to do everything. Including attacking, dealing damage, and getting kills on top of their natural jobs of supporting the team. Well, there are characters who do those things, they are the non-support classed characters. If you want to do all those special things, then play someone who’s not a healer/support.

YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO TONS OF DAMAGE YOUR JOB IS TO HEAL AND HELP THE PEOPLE THAT DO, OTHERWISE WHAT’S THE POINT OF HAVING SUPPORT CLASSED CHARACTERS?

Pretty sure I established at the very beginning of this post that I don’t give a flying ■■■■ about the damage nerfs. The healing nerf is the one that hurt. She’s now barely even a secondary healer. It’s to the point where I damn near quit whenever I see somebody on my team pick Alani and now I can kill alani easier than any other character. I mean hell by this point she’s a worse Miko.

Well of course it hurt, but it was needed! She could burst heal for around 2k before, I don’t think you realise how ridiculous that was![quote=“totalginger890, post:245, topic:1562035”]

They’re two different styles of healer, Alani is a rescuer whereas Miko is a more traditional constant healer. They both have their strengths and weaknesses and are in a similar place balance wise!

That’s the problem though with this update her healing is waaaaaay worse while her dmg is only slightly worse.

don’t bother, they think she needs more nerfs. Alani’s whole thing as they say themselves is being a rescuer, burst heals are her go to. she is supposed to have higher “at once” heals than the others in the first place. but to cut it by a third and call it balanced is the very height of asininity. rescuer? As if. She can’t even rescue herself.

#249

Thats not what they are saying…

Alani could heal others for near 2k, herself for 1k and give 30% dr thats like heal for 2600 or 1300 (without overheal that extra 30%)

They should give her 10% back on her 3rd stack and see how it goes.

She was the queen of heals for a long long time.
