She sounds super fun and will probably be the reason for me to return to this game. Only fear I have is Genji being able to deflect he rocket flail.

Her barrier is very small, her healing is neat but on a cooldown so looks limited when you're in the action. You can stack a lot of armour though with enough set up time but I don't know how often that will come into use. M1 self heals. Not sure she can tank, heal, CC or DPS well enough but it's the earliest of days.

m1 heals all allies in a radius when it hits according to her passive

Her armor buff over 100% goes away after about 5 seconds.

Ah, thanks! I should read more carefully. Overheal armour is also temporary which removes the high HP Tracer/Genji problem.

She doesn't have any self heal and only 250hp. Give her some leech to M1 or be able to use armor packs on herself.

I wonder if you can pocket damage boost her as mercy and she heals her teammates more. A mercy pocketing Brigitte pocketing the tank death ball.

So she turns her M1 clicks into healing for surrounding allies it says. Anyone know the radius? Does it heal 100% of the damage you inflict, or is it another value? Does her whip strike thing also heal?

You can knock people off ledges with that attack too.

From testing her out in practice range her heal has pretty big range also. You do have to aim it though. She's definitely gonna be a great counter dive pick though who is really hard to 1v1 thanks to her massive hp pool (400 hp lol) plus shield.

Your flail hits heal you for 80hp as a HoT. It's not a fast heal at all. This also applies the same HoT to allies around you, though I don't know the radius. It also appears that multiple strikes don't increase the rate of healing, either.

Yeah, seems so. The flail does poo poo damage, anyway. The shield charge feels so good, though.
E: That's all the PTR I can stand. Queue time for games is atrocious. When is she being released, anyway?

Probably two to three weeks I am guessing. That usually how long things sit in PTR before Blizzard decides "okay it didn't crash the game, good enough".
