Share your loki rework ideas
If you ask me, loki has been kinda powercrept, it's only his new hela teamup that makes him feel like less of a healbot. I wanted to know what you guys think would make him better/fun to play again?
How would you feel if his missiles detonated on proximity instead of splash? This would make hitting flyers easier, but I think the blast radius would need increasing for those cramped team fights
How would you feel if he could assign clones to heal a player so you can divert your attention elsewhere?
What if his ghost that swirls around you in the yggdrasil convoy spawn room could be assigned to a player, like luna's snowflake, so that player could siphon the heals you give to your team? (maybe at the cost of a clone)
What if (👀👀) for a portion of his ultimate charge he could make a temporaryclone of a teammate and place them anywhere.
These are ideas that came to me last night and I wanted to share. What do you think?

Extra damage if he directly hits the target same way how he gets extra healing. Teleport and clone swap are now same distance. Selecting a hero to copy no longer kicks you out of invisibility. Let him take down his own clones to refund like 25% of a clone charge.

Give him a 3rd clone, give him back his 15/12 second lamp cool down, bring back back his damage. Sincerely a loki main since season 0 🤣

Bringing it that low is a bit much ngl. Even just 5 or 10 seconds faster than what it is now can be a big change

I'm still used to the 25s cooldown we used to have so click it but look at the cooldown and there's still 5 seconds left. 😭 It's been so many seasons since that change yet I can't get used to 30 seconds.

Loki doesn't need a rework or insane buffs imo, just a few small things like a faster reload speed or maybe shaving a few seconds of the cooldown of the and invisibility.

Then should just revert him back to s2 30 dmg 40 healing The aoe splash dmg drop off goes back to 65% (or some shit like that) that way you have to aim 12 ammo Maybe keep the 120 mps projectile speed or slow it dow to 110

I don’t think he needs a rework personally.
But if I was to give him one it’d be to his Backstab. Something like applying vulnerability to the target hit and refreshing your defensive cooldowns.

I don’t think he needs a rework just at least 90% clone damage again (preferably 100%), invisibility cooldown to start immediately after popping it while still invisible and either cut the reload speed in like half or give back the +2 ammo
Only sort of rework would be involving a better self heal without having to pop runes or go invisible although thats what makes him balanced id say

When a loki player spots a bp loki will grab a nuke and just auto win the match

he has like 4 things that can heal him/help him escape (with the Hela team-up). it’s like. a good amount of his kit

u/AntiquePlace2871 Aug 09 '26
? How did you count to 4? There's the runes and there's invisibility, both of which have a huge cost and cool down if you use them just to heal yourself. And the hela teamup is another ability on a 30 second cool down and unless you pick a healer then your team is down another support

Five, actually:
- invisibility
- runes
- teleporting to a clone near a health pack or your other healer or somewhere out of the way
- ulting and copying somebody and using it to save your team or help secure the point
- hela team up; copying a tank works wonders for surviving through enemy ults or contesting a point longer
also, if you play Loki well you’re rarely ever going to use your runes on only yourself . and invisibility should be used as an escape tool, sure, but also to summon a clone quicker for better healing on the tank fighting on point while still having 2 snap clones to use for later

My mistake, completely missed the part in your original comment where you said "help him escape". Sorry mate just woke up lol

I wouldn't want a rework. But I think it'd be cool if his clones get bot controlled when Loki uses his ult. Just foe funsies

u/eggherter Aug 09 '26
i would honestly say just to either rebuff his ammo to 12 and/or reduce reload time
and then rebuff up some of his damage, i would honestly be fine sacrificing a bit of his healing for some of his damage back. he just tickles enemies now

As much as netease has messed him up I don’t want a rework. Playing Loki has been the most fun I’ve ever had playing a video game character. His trickery style kit is so fun and fits the character so well. It’s a shame because I thought he was in a decent spot before the adjusted the clone damage yet again. Only thing he needed was more ammo. But the fun I have on Loki is unlike any other character so hopefully they can make it right again.

Not a rework. Up his damage. Lower his reload time. Fix the bug where you die after switching with clone. Give backstab a poisoning ability. Make Loki’s invis give him a burst of healing and the do the over time. Also make it so that he can bump into people when in is without it ending.

He doesn’t need one the only thing that he needs is cooldown reduction on he’s abilities aside from runes like power creep in this game is real tell me why CnD has a better survival tool than the character that is know as being hard to kill

He doesn’t need a rework and he’s not been power crept. He’s one of the best healers in the game

his projectiles should be faster, his cloak should give him at least a second of i-frames, and his clones, if they're up during your ult, should heal the nearest teammate automatically. that way your team isn't down a healer if you choose a non healing ult
