I'm more scared about Nano Matheal with Torrent. It's gonna be a Beyblade again, only with a different Reaper.

Also I like how bio grenade can nullify ults in this game as well (Ancestral and Palm)

All the "piloted" things are now yeah, the thing on volskaya too.

Edit: JESUS CHRIST nanoboost Cho'gall is nightmarish looking, no clip on that one but wowie, both sides get the bonuses and they're practically invincible with the 20 talent.

First PTR game, Genji, Ana, Uther.

Team does NOT go with the Invulerable Insano Dragon Blade. Really people? Really?

0/2 on Anas that will go nanoboost

Of course it will go live, gotta sell those Anas. It'll be removed when she drops to 10k.

This is all very confusing. Do you mind if I call you Rodriguez?
It might go live, they are probably pretty dead set on release next patch whether it's fixed by then or not. It will have nothing to do with some imagined scheme to get people to buy new heroes though.

It's a bug, nano-boost is not supposed to affect heroic abilities.

quote:

Nano Boost (R)
Instantly boost an allied Hero, restoring 200 Mana. For the next 8 seconds, they gain 30% Spell Power and their Basic Ability cooldowns recharge 150% faster.
Cannot be used on Ana.

Yes, just like the last few major bugs caught early during PTR, like the medivac one just two weeks ago :allears:

They do usually fix stuff within a week or so of the patch coming out, they are just usually very unlikely to fix things that pop up on the PTR cycle.

I'm curious how good Nano-Tormented Souls is, since that's the other OP interaction people were talking about and that actually is intended. I have to imagine Nanoblade will still probably be decent on Genji though just for the ability power alone

Nano Odin?

I imagine it's basically "everyone is marked -> nano-boosted soul rip basically constantly -> loads of damage"

0.8 second cooldown on Soul Rip while Nano'd, 0.6s if you have Soul Collector at 16.

I don't loving understand why they decided to make Nano Boost into Dickslam Gunhands: But For Mages and open up the miserable can of worms that is making the one character type that can reliably instantly delete players (or entire teams!) even more powerful. The 50% damage reduction/50% damage boost design from Overwatch was fine, and would have translated perfectly to Heroes. I can understand wanting to do something different when you've already got two characters with ults that buff AAs, but Jesus.

Pretty sure that +50% attack damage/aspeed would have been just as overpowered. Imagine a chaingun Valla being basically indestructable due to a combination of lifesteal and damage resistance while pouring out insane amounts of damage. Or an Illidan, or a Butcher.
