Hero Updates

Mercy

Resurrect

• Mercy can now attempt to resurrect teammates who die over environmental death pits
• When resurrecting, the resurrect marker will now freeze in place for the duration of the resurrection.
• Dev Note: Previously, if a teammate died over a death pit their resurrect marker was hidden and fell into the pit. Now, Mercy will see their resurrect marker and can resurrect before it falls to the bottom.
• Holding the ability button for resurrect while it’s on cooldown will now attempt the resurrect once the cooldown finishes
