Hey everyone,

One of the main weaknesses of Lifeline's D.O.C. Halo is its open top, leaving teams vulnerable to air strikes, sky-grenades, and high-ground pushes while trying to reset.

What if her Ultimate had a ceiling (a full dome/bunker), forcing enemies to physically push inside if they want to stop the fast heals?

To keep it balanced and prevent it from feeling unfair:

Hardlight Mechanics: Give the shield segments/ceiling an HP pool (similar to Hardlight). Heavy weapons and ordnance would deal extra damage to it so an organized squad can quickly burst a hole.

Hard Counters: Legend abilities like Crypto's EMP or Horizon's Black Hole could instantly neutralize or destroy the shield, giving teams clear tactical counterplay.

No Controller Synergy: Control legends (Wattson, Caustic, Catalyst) cannot reinforce or attach their abilities directly to the panels to buff its HP, preventing a toxic "bunker meta."

Would a full enclosure with breakable health panels make her Ult feel more complete, or would it be too defensive? Curious to hear your thoughts!
