Developer Comments: Lúcio's Ability Power Healing builds have continued to give too much healing output for how accessible and consistent they are, and have been overperforming at all levels of play. We're tuning down the healing output here because of how consistently effective it is. Lúcio's Weapon Power builds have mostly been crowded out by Ability Power builds, in both output and consistency. We're adding a bit more power here to encourage some more build variety.
Crowd Pleaser – Power
Let's Bounce - Power
Sonic Boom – Power
Fast Forward – Power
#1 Single – Rare Ability Hero Item
All Out Auditiva – Epic Ability Hero Item
Developer Comments: On average, Lúcio was gaining less than average Cash from damage and healing, so giving him a small bump here.
In combination with Amp It Up, Crowd Pleaser was allowing for too much burst healing that was outside of acceptable output ranges.
Amp It Up healbot builds have been a little too consistent so we’re shaving a little off from Megaphone.
Weapon Power Lúcio builds have been overshadowed by Ability Power Healing and Soundwave builds. We’re adding more consistency to Signature Shift to make it a more reliable and accessible option.
B-Side Bop has a very low pick rate, so we’re adding more Health to make it a more attractive option and add more power to less popular Lúcio builds.

Developer Comments: "Can't stop, won't stop."
Developer Comment: The adjustment to Lúcio's health pool has impacted his survivability in fights, this change will increase his durability in combat by improving his self-healing capabilities. Additionally, Sound Barrier now falls faster while in mid-air, enabling more reactive and safer usage from higher positions.
Developer Comment: Lucio is one of the most mobile heroes and makes his allies faster as well, so we're moving him into the 225 HP hero category. His playstyle tends to get into closer ranges more often than other heroes in this category, so we're turning up his Primary fire damage output to increase his effectiveness at range before diving in.
Primary fire damage increased from 18 to 22.
Developer Comment: Lucio’s gun is now keepin’ it in time.
