Skill Checks Everytime I Itch My Face
Why is it that everytime I itch my face I get a skill check. And I always need to itch my face when I am on a gen. Why is the game designed to punish like that?

I feel like the game has some sort of pressure sensor that can tell when you're pulling off a gen or stopping a heal action. It always seems to choose that exact moment to populate a skill check, mid-pull, so that it inevitably blows the gen or makes you scream.

It's not.
It's just something that tends to happen.

Oh God I feel this so deeply. If it's bad enough, I'll stop doing a gen to scratch my nose or eyebrow.

I hate this as well LMAO... It's almost as bad as realizing you have to go to the bathroom the second that the trial starts.

Prepare, i'm gonna be this kind of guy for a moment...
You have an itch, what you do is scratch or rub it.
There, i did it. 🙄

Bruh, it's like the game knows. Oh you've got an itch? Here's 500 skills checks coming at you in quick succession

Haha! I can totally relate. I'll just complete a skill check and figure it's safe for a quick scratch. Wouldn't you know another skill check pops up the second I take my hand away from the keyboard....lol.

That struggle is all too real. It always turns out to be a long match with immersed survivors too!

TeacherEntity says: "if you wanted to go to the bathroom, you should've gone before theclasstrial started".0 -
Because you didn't read the EULA. It says the Entity can take you whenever it wants and you accept this, so essentially DBD is just a test of reflexes, The Entity itches your nose too see if you can hit the skillchecks.
It's dissapointed.

Itchy is not the only thing.
The other thing is when you miss a skill check, BAM. You decide to leave the gen in case Killer comes, but there is another skill check right after the 1st BAM, then you get a 2nd BAM. Thats a 16sec on Gen wasted.

Haha ya happens to me all the time. It's always the moment you're not prepared.

Hahaha exactly! Like when I was a kid, 5 mins into a long road trip my dad would say, "You should have thought about that before we left!"

The entity senses your weak moments and exploits them.

LOL 99% of the time I realize I brought in a brand new part too just to make it worse!

Confirmation bias.
Also, happens with spine chill a lot.
Killer looks at you;
Spine chill acitvates;
You run off gen as killer comes towards you;
You explode an invisible skill check as you get off the gen as spine chill increases the chance of skill checks, and it is activated when the killer looks at you.

Wouldn't be surprised if u were right tbh lmao.

I swear the game can sense it, can't itch my nose or drink/eat anything on a gen. Just a bad idea.
I'll usually do it the second I do a skill check if I have to xD
