In a hypothetical DC Hero Shooter, what class should Wonder Woman have. Tank? Dps? Support? (Wonder Woman #14)
In my opinion Wonder Woman can fit into all 3 classes. Each with their own pros and cons.
Support:
Pro- She can use the Purple Healing Ray to heal allies. This showcases the Amazons superior technology. They'll have to emphasise the kinder aspects of her character instead of defaulting to Warrior Woman.
Con- Her character model would be smaller than I'd like.(#Wonder Woman should be the tallest in the trinity🤭). Her combat ability would be downplayed and not showcased. It's the old "Woman=Healer" trope.
Tank:
Pro- Tall and wide💪, like WW should be. Her power and strength would be showcased. There's a higher chance we'll see her make use of the Lasso for cc and her bracelets for defence. It'd make more sense to give her a wrestling based fighting style in this class.
Cons- They might just give her the sword and shield. She'll probably make more use of the shield then her bracelets.
Dps:
Pro- Could showcase her combat ability and Amazon training. More likely to get her boomerang tiara as a ranged ability.
Cons- Warrior Woman. Amazons will be portrayed as savages as per usual. Highest chance of her getting a basic sword and shield moveset. Smaller frame 😭. Diana would not have a kind bone in her body.
If I could choose her class and abilities. I'd make her a Tank. Tiara as a ranged option. Lasso based gameplay that relies on combos. Like after a Lasso whip you can Lasso the enemy and pull them in for a suplex 😃. BULLETS AND BRACELETS!! Successful bracelet blocks could give you a health and damage buff. You could fit in an ability that uses the Purple Healing Ray to heal allies. There's so much you could do with it but this is DC and WB. Good decisions between them are an exception, not the rule ☹️.
So what do you think?
