Methuss Healing

[Dad]

It NEEDS to clip through walls for a moment longer after losing line of sight. It needs better feedback to let your teammate know they're being healed. And it needs better feedback that the cord actually connected/disconnected.

Right now it's so awkward to use

[AKR三号]

Yeah I agree, dad. I also think it needs slightly stronger heal per second.

Btw dad, can you give me more pocket money? I want to unlock the better Methuss Unicorn Gundam.

[Astralis]

same goes for unicorn, for some reason if you can't see at least 60-70% of teammate's body it'll be counted as being behind obstacles

[TejoAdiP]

the reason why methus and unicorn cant heals cant get through walls or some obstacles is because to keep us from abusing it.

but they need to fix the jankyness and inconsistent range through some obstacles

[Blunette]

The fact that I can shoot over the buildings at head height with Methuss guns yet the repair cables break over the top of them annoys me greatly to no end.

[Patchy]

Cables should definitely last a tiny bit longer without breaking.

I don't think the methuss really needs to be improved because well used it is really very strong, but I am for improving all the skills based on teamplay, if it can help the players to understand the importance of the game as a team so it's a good thing

[Dad]

yeah tbh, i think he's pretty good. But that cord is just not fun to use atm.

Oh man. We can shoot through grates, and I understand no cables through grates even if it kind of sucks for that one particular domination objective, but why no Unicorn aoe heal through grates?!

Whaaat, you think the Uni**** is using NANOMACHINES? C'mon, everyone knows the only way to stop Psycho-Frame Resonance is with a tinfoil hat. And, uh, chain-link fences, I guess. Really not sure how that works either way.

I would like all of those things, but I could live without any of them if I got better distinction of tether while flying.

Not trying to be dismissive, they're good points; rather, once I had a few dozen hours of Methuss I found they were things I could play around without much duress. But the difficulty of differentiating if I've tethered someone while flying is frustrating as ♥♥♥♥. I have to just press the button and have confidence I did so, like doing something in the dark you've done before.

As my skill level rose and I started to spend a lot more time in flight mode, this problem started to get much worse. Good Methuss's will do a lot of flight harassment time while healing people, both quick hops and wavy flights, and you'll find you try to move to someone, tether, then switch back to the enemy, all while flying and zigzagging, and when you're on the ground the beam is brought and the feedback is a lot more obvious. In the air, the beam is virtually invisible and there's very poor feedback, especially as you're farther away. It's more than just a nuisance.

Nobody here wants buffs. Methuss mains know our suit is strong already. This is a conversation about quality of life fixes. QOL should never be how you hold a suit back, so if giving us better interface design means we need a nerf to compensate, then do it, because I'd rather have more fun and win less if that's what it means.

But in this case the conversation isn't necessary, as these aren't about numbers.
