Hello. I have been playing the PTR of overwatch for a few hours now, and I have been messing around with Ana. Here are some stats below for those that are interested.
200 HP
Bionic Rifle; projectile based, 80 damage per shot (50 initial and then 2 ticks of 15) heals for about 80 (?) health per shot
Sleep dart is a longe range, fairly slow projectile that stuns enemies for 5 (?) seconds, receiving damage ends the stun. Cooldown is 12 seconds.
Heal grenade heals you and allies for 100 health and boosts all healing by 100% (?), also damages enemies for 50 (?) damage and prevents them from receiving healing (seems to prevent heal kits aswell)
Cooldown is 10 seconds.
Her ultimate doubles a single ally's movement speed and damage, as of right now I dont know how much the dmg resistance is but I'll assume it halves all dmg.
I hope this is useful.
Edit: thoughts on Ana as a character in general.
Right now she is very weak compared to Zenyatta (who will be buffed ALOT), her main issues is that her "sniper" (glorified mccree gun) cannot deal headshot damage. 80 damage across the map does not justify her as a sniper.
Oh, and she doesnt have a vertical movement ability. No vantage points I guess.

Edited by Kankunation: 7/14/2016 10:41:34 PMI don't think she's really weak. Rather, I think she's a perfect fit. The main thing with her is that without a lot of team coordination, her usefulness is greatly reduced. Especially since her abilities both rely on the team to make use of them. Her sniper is fine imo, she shouldn't be out-sniping anybody anyways as she's support first, then sniper. If they do give her crit damage, it's shouldn't add all that much, at most 120 damage total. Though I think her damage is fine for the range she can damage at. No vertical mobility does suck though, I feel she should be able to at least jump up to some perches, maybe not as well as other snipers but enough to get some sort of vantage point would be nice. I was thinking she could have some sort of thrust pack like pharah, just enough to jump up to certain ledges

ANA: SOMBRA IN DISGUISE!

Im pretty sure her ult triples the damage, not doubles As in the reveal video, she ults a reinhardt and he 1 shots a bastion who has 300 health (100 of which is armour)

Edited by SeneschalGrigori: 7/14/2016 4:06:49 PMAfter watching streams of her she really doesn't seem bad. I think the issue was people thought she was going to play a sniper role (myself included) and after seeing her weapon in action it's actually a DMR so she's taking shots at her friends when not taking shots at her enemies. Watched her cause all kinds of carnage when people weren't trying to take her down.
-
From the streamers I've been watching play her (mainly Star_) she seems incredibly good when paired with another healer. Even on her own, her biotic grenade doubles healing from all sources, and when activated can easily out heal Mercy. Her sleeping dart is pretty weird though, I think it's hitbox is very small.
-
I might still play lucio or mercy... just in case they miss shots.
-
So is her passive an ability to climb? Seems kind of useless having a sniper that doesn't have an ability to get to higher ground. Though from how she plays I might use her as my healer as I never liked being up close to the enemy
-
This feels like Smash Bros. to me.
-
With zenyatta/ Reinhardt ring my mains I'll welcome a new healer especially now that she can always view the entire battlefield
-
When I wanted a new healer, I meant something that could actually heal through damage.
-
I haven't got Overwatch yet, what's this about?
-
I heard heal grenade improves healing by 100% more (doubling it) making it 200%, not boosting it by 200%
-
She sounds like a lot of fun, might get more people to play support.
-
Nerf and she op
-
If someone cries for a nerf on me, they are either bad at the game or just a troll. And ima beat em with my sniper
