Why dont we let medivacs heal tanks and thors too?
at least then it would be consistent and logical.

What would be cute is if medivacs could only heal battle hellions up to 25% health.

Battle hellion as bio just doesn't make any sense. It seems incredibly sloppy.

The other changes look ok to me. Widows are going to be strong.

Wait, you want logic in a game where psychic-mouthless-plant-people warp in from other planets and fight with laser swords with a race of space truckers that have a sonic screwdriver that heals people from the sky?

Thors can replace the warhound, just lower strike cannon energy cost and give them defensive matrix

I love how Protoss gets some big buffs and everyone is talking about the bio-hellion thing.

Its a futuristic game but at least the logic is consistent within itself. I dont get why people arent able to distinguish between it.

yeah, it doesn't really make any sense that they'd go off and tweak purify in a way that makes that silly 1 base pvz attack even stronger

Can you post a source for this? I tried out the unit tester and it was still the same, +3 vs light and +5 vs armored.

Okay so the vs light stays the same if I'm not mistaken? And it gets +7 now vs armored... I wonder why they didn't say that in any of the patch notes...


Also thanks for posting a pic :D

Have you seen the concept art for the marauder? Or a firebat? They look like mechanical units. I can accept the fact that a battlehellion in battle form can be healed by the dropship's sonic screwdriver if those units are considered bio.
