    You already have it, it's called healing grenades.

    Not all of us carry medkits 24/7, and not all factions have healers that can carry 20+ medkits at a time.

    As said above, apoths and painboys can already revive themselves with those heal grenade beacons, which I find overpowered and obnoxious. Ork heal grenades are less of an issue since they're so huge and easy to hit, fells like they have less health too.

    No on self revives. It shouldn't even be in the game to begin with. Either that or let warlocks and sorcerers heal themselves while downed too.

    Option 2: Work in pairs- when a teammate goes down, revive them, and then use your medkit on them =O

    Seriously, it's the most abusable thing. Toss a heal beacon before you start a fight and you're golden.

    I prefer the whole "you need your teammates" approach, especially when it comes to support.

    And it really won't be any different, because the game is not for solo roamers.
  7. Should just be able to stim them from the downed state with a medkit. Little silly that medkits can't be used on people that are bleeding out...

    You have supports exactly for that and no consumable will take over from supports.

    I didn't say it was abusive.

    You have a ranged heal that revives players at about the same rate that a Apo poke does.

    Heal grenades are on a substantial cooldown, and while powerful, they were designed to bring the Apo's heals up to the level of sorcerors.

    They're limited in their area of effect and only have around 50% uptime with the standard 100 point grenades. Meaning half the time, you're dependent on the poke. The healing from downed state to revive is also slower than sorceror's heals. Self heal only works if you cast the grenade before going down and before it expires, if you're standing in the area of effect.

    Yes as a tweak to the mark of khorne allowing berserker mode. Get kill/execution to revive. No on others.
