Easiest but strong healer to play for a beginner level 4

[--->> Marty ---<<]

Just downloaded the game a few hours ago and i like it a lot. Any recommendations for a healing class that's easy and strong?

Mantis and Luna are pretty by the numbers healers, good utility, AOE healing ultimate(Luna can switch between healing and damage boost aura and it last way longer than it should).

Those two can carry you to basically anything as long as you can aim, as Mantis gets her heal charges from critical hits and Luna has to aim her shots on someone to heal.

I'll have to look into her more.

rocket raccoon is pretty easy and works well in lower level lobbies. Make sure you place the respawn beacon behind cover

I think adam warlock is pretty easy, just one click heals, u do have to not just mash it. I mainly play luna, i do think they are all fairly easy besides cloak and dagger and loki. Luna and mantis has the best ults in the game tho so i would recommend one of them

Mantis is extremely easy and very good

Pro tip for mantis, don't forget your damage buff! Learn it, love it, live it! She gives a MASSIVE amount of value with well timed buffs. If you see your spiderman about to dive, hit him with it. Your punish just took a good spot and has a good LoS, buff him!

Trust me, mantis is easier to play but keeping that damage buff on 3 of your team mates at the same time can be challenging.

Adam Warlock has been the easiest Strat for me to play. The only rub with him is learning to pace yourself with his heals, as he has a limited, albeit fast charging, number of uses. But on the plus side, if you're anywhere near the person needing a heal, you don't have to aim at them. You dont even have to be looking at them.

He's also something of sniper, just not with big numbers, so it can help with your aiming habits for playing Hela or Hawkeye.

I dunno why, but I cannot grok Mantis.

Luna and Dagger have been fairly straightforward for me, but you generally have to aim heal with them (general direction for dagger). But Dagger does have some intricacies that I can see not being easy for a begginer to get (learning to switch and use Cloak)

Rocket is a fun Strat to play, and not a terrible beginner choice I think.

Not touching Loki ever.

Have never played Jeff because someone else almost always does.

Also, learn more than one Strat- if you find yourself as the only one, Dagger/Warlock may not be the best picks. But if someone is playing Jeff or Mantis, it may behoove you to play Luna or Warlock, respectively, because of how well they mesh.

He's the worst support in the game. Don't listen to this person, he's actually useless. His entire kit is bad to "balance" him around the fact he can revive one person like once every 2 minutes.
He is the least played support in the game.

If you place your clones right loki technically has highest damage and healing output

Is Loki a tank, or dps or healer? I've only watched a few Marvel movies, and the best one is The Punisher IMO and Superman and Spiderman lol

I don't think Mantis is as easy to play as she people say she is. You need to be landing your hits in order to get the most use out of her, because her heal overtime just won't cut it against a competent team. You need to be doing damage and using some of those charges on yourself to land criticals, which can be risky but very rewarding for your team. You also must learn to use her damage buff of allies, as you won't do better healing than most Strategists.

Basically, the people who say Mantis is easy to play are probably getting carried by their teammates and mainly just sitting back and spamming heals. That can work if you have a good team, but if you ever need to pull your weight sitting back and spamming heals will just get you rolled with the rest of the team.

Any healer besides Loki is beginner friendly.

Easiest healer? The Dagger half of Cloak & Dagger. Her basic attack (which hits allies to heal) will outright lock on to an ally and can even rebound around corners with generous assist. She can throw a dagger that creates a healing AOE and throw out a big floating wall that grants a light heal and healing boost to every ally it passes through. If you're really just trying to smoothbrain healbot, then she's the easiest character to do so with. You can "graduate" to remembering to throw out her healing AOE, swap to Cloak, and then use his blinding wall to make enemies take more damage or use his AOE fade-out to save yourself and allies from a Jeff ult.

Jeff is pretty easy, too. Spit out bubbles on the objective, and spray the healing hose across the objective; keep your distance and use your dive move to... get away from divers. Your ult can win the match if you grab every enemy off the objective during Overtime.
