While The Finals community has been demanding nerfs to the throwable \u201cOP\u201d explosives that are currently dominating games, there\u2019s another issue that players believe is just as bad. Unlike the destructive power of the game\u2019s C4+barrel combo, the Medium classes defibrillator revives can prove game-changing. Not only can they revive fallen teammates, but they also give the recently rezzed player a brief moment of invulnerability. This stops enemies from being able to eliminate them, essentially making them invincible to incoming damage \u2013 an area the game\u2019s community believes should be nerfed. The Finals players call for defibrillator rezz nerfs \u201cA consistent source of bullsh*t for me has been defib invincibility,\u201d explained one player. \u201cI firmly believe that if someone goes for a risky defib, it should be punishable. As it currently stands, you can heavy swing and then light swing a freshly rezzed player with your Sledge and they\u2019ll take no damage, made even worse by the melee lunge targeting them instead of the Medium that rezzed them.\u201d While the invincibility window is only brief, it can lead to some rather frustrating scenarios like the example outlined below. \u201cIt\u2019s not okay when the invincible one acts as a human shield for the reviver and I waste most of my mag, but otherwise the rest of the behavior is fine,\u201d commented another player. This invulnerability can give a Medium Build player just enough time to revive their teammate and turn the tides of a gunfight. As a result, many players have suggested their own nerfs which would help alleviate the issue. \u201cDefib would probably be balanced if instead of having half HP and keeping the invincibility, they had full HP and no invincibility. That way you could easily kill defibed players and if you get defibed in a dangerous situation you don\u2019t instantly die once your invincibility runs out.\u201d Whether the devs will make any adjustments to the rez from defibrillators remains to be seen, but for now, you\u2019ll need to take extra when confirming your kills.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Finals players call for defibrillator nerfs as revives make players invincible Embark StudiosThe Finals players are calling for nerfs to Medium Build defib revives, which make players briefly invincible.
