HERO UPDATES
Mercy
Resurrect

• Mercy can now attempt to resurrect teammates who die in environmental death pits

• When resurrecting, the resurrect marker will now freeze in place for the duration of the resurrection.

• Dev Note: Previously, if a teammate died over a death pit their resurrect marker was hidden and fell into the pit. Now, Mercy will see their resurrect market and can resurrect before it falls to the bottom.

• Holding the ability button for resurrect while it’s on cooldown will now attempt the resurrect once the cooldown finishes
