wat up haha.
Well a lot of top tier melee fighters are asking for it so why not. Its not like the devs are the expert in mo2 combat. I dont really see any top tier PvPers saying the current bandage is great, its either indifferent or against the current status quo.
I dunno, man, can we just fix the other parts first then see what's up? haha. You can't fix everything at once. Anything that is + sustain atm is a bad look no matter how it might favor someone individually. Maybe there are people who would hugely benefit from the system being changed, but it's still a self heal. One thing we can agree on FOR SURE, that everyone is saying is that Magic is OP, but we really need to go in and do the knowledge as to WHY that is. If you look at all of the dynamics causing that (And it's not just raw dmg) then fix those, then we can re-look at bandages, but self heals man, they aren't supposed to carry you. Again @ bdo... self heals are super aids. Dudes on the ground w/ their infi pots getting extra heals when they are on their back. Bandage system is nice because you need to space. If you can't space u ded. The IDEA of bandages and how they work is very sound, IMO, but I can't say it's all perfect... however, I can say for a fact that changing stuff like that as it is... that is changing them before we address more core issues... will just make the game more fucky.
PS: @ face popping bandages, you CAN as soon as someone target switches and run into the battle while you are wrapping your arm and have your wep out in time to fight.
