Is Blizzard Planning to Change Moira Into a DPS Character?

-

I’ve been playing Moira as a support main, focusing on healing and helping the team survive. Lately, I’ve been worried that Blizzard might change her role from support to DPS. Has anyone heard if this is actually happening? What do you think about Moira potentially becoming a damage-focused character?

No need to stress! Moira already dishes out damage while healing, so in a sense, she plays a hybrid support/DPS role. I don’t think Blizzard will fully switch her to pure DPS because it would change her identity and might upset a lot of mains.

Don’t worry too much about it. Support heroes like Moira often have strong damage to stay relevant, but that doesn’t mean they switch roles entirely. They usually keep their healing as a core part of their kit.

Honestly, it does seem like a lot of people suspect Moira might be shifted to DPS at some point, but there’s no official confirmation. Some fans jokingly treat it like it’s inevitable, but for now, she’s still a support with damage capabilities.

Yeah, I guess I just hope they keep her healing strong. Her support role feels unique and fun!
