rocket raccoon needs buff

[ntleung]

The delay from right click to left click is bad for this character. I want to fight not run away from dive character.

He could use a little bit more ammo for the Heal Orbs imo

Then play another healer? Rocket is the highest mobility support arguably the highest mobility character in the game past spiderman/venom. Running away/keeping in high unreachable areas is how you play him effectively.

Go play Mantis or Luna if you want to 1v1 dives

Yup this is how you play him and you should be doing nonstop right click period. Only left click to help seal a kill or when no one needs healing. Let someone else deal with the dive.

Then play DPS a tank? Rocket is a high mobility support character than can do a little dps at range. Rocket's job is to position well, stay very mobile, heal and serve as a force multiplier in critical team fights. If you keep getting eaten up by enemy diver characters that is a YOU problem, not a a problem with Rocket.

Stop complaining that the hammer in your hand does not cut wood while ignoring the saw in the toolbox.

100% a skill issue.
Rocket is a mobile support unit who can defend himself.
Your failure to see this is your fault.
He is not DPS.
Go play DPS if you want to do damage.

needs more damage, and more heal orbs. he's okay, but he is the most boring hero in the world. almost 0 reason to ever damage people when you can either escape or keep healing the people focusing them. good util tho

Tell this to every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ person who plays Rivals ever because for some reason every non-rocket player doesn't seem to understand that he does not do damage or get kills unless it's picks

Rocket has amazing damage at close range and great mobility to find cover so you can self heal, you can 1v1 a diver.

[Gamefreak]

Feel like he would be worth picking if you could hold m1 while using m2 without any downtime.

nah, only thing he needs is an added damage reduction or heal to his ult

[Archonis]

i play a lot of Rocket and like other say.... He doesn't need to be trying to kill someone. Just spam heals and only left click when you see an Ankh or a Spider Mine OR if there is someone that can die by being breathed on.

That being said, for Rocket I would like to see his orb do a damage over time along with the heal. I think that would make him more helpful in larger team fights.

[Woldy]

Rocket is not a head to head fighter.
Hes super hard to catch unless the enemy after you also has tons of mobility.
not to mention a small target.

he needs more range and less dps dropoff. When u don't need to heal you re useless cause he has like melee range
