Here's why Star Sapphire should not be a healer.

To me Orange is probably the only power of the Lanterns that would play any role. Because if its pets system Orange can be any role...Which could be explored more in DCUO really.

Thanks.

no prob I was going to do a thread on powers that Red Lantern could have gotten in game but didn't still might.

Careful-- you know who is gonna attack you. Matter of fact, everyone should prepare themselves.

looking at the list powers you gave SSap should be a controller not a healer I know alot of people want it but I don't see it as an healer. Because Indigo is what the OP called unexplored in the DCU I can see it fitting a healer role better.

Instead of giving it a power how about they color rage or hard light to a pink color instead of green or red and say it's star sapphire power.

Here enter the sexism... Healer is such a girly thing, and Star Sapphires are most girls... see where i'm going?

looking at the lanterns they all seems like controllers really lol

The color change option would be the laziest thing I had ever seen in dcuo, or possibly any game I've ever played. Each Lantern Corps is different, and have different abilities. To simply boil them down to color would be asinine.

To be fair, the other rings can't heal others, like the Sapphire ring can. Their healing ability only affects themselves.

true Indigo can heal minor injuries but it in DC lore have been said its still have more potenial, to me its the closest to all around healing

Hoisted, by his own pitard.

if u wanna call it lazy fine.. but again the player rings are lazy... they are pre programmed, thats why im pulling for this idea so much.. and when it comes to DCUO lantern powersets, the rules are different from the comics..being how the rings are pre loaded witha certain amount of power... its the best option and probobly the only way were gonna get each ring for the suits. besides the suits having rings one gloves.. and that would work for anypowerset wearing the say Scion of ion suit... but a HL toon wearing a scion of ion suit aka Green lantern suit would have two green lantern rings.. IT just sounds AWESOME... after seeing the kyle rayner and guy gardner legends. it just is a visually freakin AWESOME

Given how often we see Staff use among players, it's not tough to imagine that being a bit of a dealbreaker. LOL

inb4 "John Stewart was a Star Sapphire so we will get the power and the style for males!"

There is a fine line between NEUTRAL and VILLAIN. Google it.

Indigo will be the healer power for a few reasons if they even do the lantern healing power

Its make female neutral (especially the color) but also its corp is mixed

It's villain hero neutral

They have healing abilities in the comics...

The mimic other lantern powers (or can) which would be enticing for the devs as they already have animations from two player usable lantern powers... Rage/hardlight nit to mention npc lantern powers blue (whichis also used in legends) orange and black and violet ... Remember I said mimic not become those...these are all animations the can pull from making it less time for them when making animations mixed in with original animations to the power set ...

Indigo us the smartest choice oyt of all of them

Sadly hope will never be a power as its hero only

well i still see Batman mainly as a controller because of hes tactician skills while i see superman mainly as a Tank , the one who is always at the frontline getting most dmg in and wonderwoman would be somekind of a mix role between controll (lasso) and tank, different kind of tank as she deflects or avoids most dmg in unlike superman.

You see them, doesn't mean they are. Batman can be an evasive tank. Wonder Woman can be a Battle healer. Superman can be a controller by using his physical powers. (Spinning.)

Really. There is no roles in comics. It's just this game decision to put roles in.

i disagree because when it comes to a group of heroes , like justice league they clearly have roles , ofcourse everyone could fit in the role it is needed but they all have their favourite role.

Agreed I think that's what they made a mistake with this game giving support rokes was a bad idea when mist people in a superhero game just want to punch stuff...
One of the many reason why marvel heroes has been so successful is there is no roles in the game
