Reasonable Brigitte Buffs
Post Body

I know this community is super toxic/against Brigitte but she is currently my favorite hero. However, after all the consecutive nerfs, Brigitte no longer feels as engaging to play. However, I wish the devs would introduce some minor buffs/ QoL changes that were improve her gameplay without drastically changing her balance.

  1. Faster Armor Pack
  • I often find that when I try to heal a critical teammate, they die before the armor pack gets to them.
  1. Faster shield deployment
  • There are times when I have reacted to an enemy action correctly (e.g. Rein’s ultimate, a McCree Flashbang, etc.), but I still get destroyed because the shield doesn’t come up instantly. I want to be rewarded for good reflexes playing Brigitte.
  1. A higher armor to health ratio in Brigitte’s health pool
  • Currently, Brigitte has 200 HP and 50 armor. However, since the devs nerfed her shield health and the nerf to all armor, Brig is a lot less tanky. Having slightly more armor to health in her HP pool would slightly improve her tankiness.
  1. Slightly larger Inspire range
  • As of now, Brigitte’s healing is just a worse version of Lucio’s. Sure the armor pack is good, but it has its drawbacks too. As a healer, Brig falls behind the other supports. If they won’t significantly increase the rate of healing for Inspire, then perhaps a larger range for the passive might compensate for it.
  1. Remove/Reduce movement penalty for Whip Shot
  • Brigitte is pretty immobile when she uses this ability. The movement penalty interrupts her flow and tempo. Reducing this penalty (or removing it) would make her more fluid without causing it to be OP.

I’m not saying to add all these changes, but Brigitte needs something. Don’t get me wrong. I’m a Brigitte main, so I’ll play her regardless. I play her even though the community is pretty toxic and abusive at times towards the hero. But I’m adapting to her current state despite Blizzard’s stance on the hero.

And to answer the haters, no, I don’t think OP = fun. It wasn’t the fact that I enjoyed playing her because she was powerful. If you can’t understand that basic logic, then your contribution to the conversation is limited.
