Vecna takes zero skill and is absolutely unfun to versus
What’s the point of the clocks if he gets the red world instantly after 2 hits with his power? What’s the point of having stacks if they never could go away? Why is he able to just spam his power repeatedly? That’s no excuse because he’s 4.4 I rather face him when he’s 4.6 but no power spam. Make it so if he’s spamming his power he loses the red world faster.
Re: Vecna takes zero skill and is absolutely unfun to versus
He's literally just a modern Nurse.
Player uses power on CD and tries to guess? Loopable and somewhat enjoyable.
Player just walks you down until you're in sight and M2's on top of you? Chase is over in 10s.
Re: Please survivors STOP Disconnecting
Nightlight is the closest thing we have to official data. If you don't like that, then maybe official data should be released on the relevant topics for discussion.
Re: How would you fix Dracula
I don't think he needs buffed at all. He's one of the strongest and most versatile Killers. Hellfire being situationally weaker than Wolf Form is not a problem that needs fixed.
Re: When are you going to fix all the Nurse bugs?
After getting my hit denied by the rubber banding for 1000th time I just gave up and switched to Blight. I guess it's their way of silently nerfing the Nurse without the community backlash.
Re: Vecna takes zero skill and is absolutely unfun to versus
I've got really mixed feelings. He's super fun to play as but I'm not great with ranged killers. I've played 17 matches as him and I've won 11 of them. It works out to a 66% KR so far. So pretty okay results, nothing amazing. I usually do better than that when I hop on a new killer.
Playing against him has been a different story.
I've played against him 28 times so far. In 8 of those I've escaped. That's a 28% ER against him. Only one was a 4e. Three were hatch, so only I escaped. One was a player who had me in the mori stance in end game and let me go, so that would have been a death if he hadn't been nice. Only 4 of those 28 matches were wins for the survivor team and in almost all of these matches I was in a party, so it wasn't just soloq confusion. The Henrys I'm going against land damn near all their hits. I've never had so many losses against a new killer so quickly. Usually there's a period of figuring out both sides go through but this has been stomp after stomp after stomp.
I don't know how much can be changed though. Nerfs might make him unplayable for mid players but in good hands he's nearly unstoppable. I'm curious to see where things are at in a few weeks with everyone figuring things out more.
Re: Damn playing a low tier killer is Horrible right now.
Where did they say they were happy about the difference in group sizes in high elo or it fell in line with their balance?
Where did they say they weren't?
Here's the quote, bolding is in the original.
"Looking at the bigger picture, there was an average kill rate of 60% across all MMR, while that average kill rate increased to 63% for high MMR. This largely falls in line with our intended Killer balance."
They're clearly looking at overall average numbers. They even bolded it. They have ample opportunity to say something like 'we're considering ways to address the SWF disparity', but they don't, they say the numbers fall in line with their balance targets.
Re: Slugging and tunneling
Unironically we USED to not have this.
But guess what happened...guess who complained and said "no"....just take a guess 🫠
Re: Slugging and tunneling
The game being balanced on stacking gen proression and regression isnt great as its greatly advantages one side, the side with more people.
But one side does it way more than the other. In my survivor matches, at least half the killers bring anti-gen. In my killer matches, I pretty never bring regression and one or two people wil have Resilience, Deja Vu, or Prove Thyself, maybe. Every once in a blue moon I get a Stakeout/Hyperfocus. I've never once seen a full team of gen rushers. It's all chase and second chance, and those are way better anyway.
I used to use Streetwise with a Commodious before the rework and, according to the stat page, I have a 42.88% ER with it. I switched it for Lithe and have a 46.72% with that. A full four percent increase because I can zoom away from death. Gen perks are pretty mid compared to endless speed and Endurance.
Fix Vine Attack Hitbox
There has been multiple times where I have been hit by Vecna's Vine Attack when I'm not even inside of the circle. There has been several more times where I have been entirely within the circle and I don't receive damage or a Worldbreaker token. This makes the character very inconsistent and unfun to counter, so the hitbox should be fixed before the live release of the Stranger Things Chapter 2.
