Key to making killers miss you?
When I play killer. Every now and then I fall for the trick survivors do when they pretend they are going to vault. I even sometimes miss survivors who DO vault by what looks like a fraction of an inch.
Why does it feel like the EXACT opposite when I play survivor? When I vault the killer is almost always going to hit me if hes close enough. I never see my killer scenario mirrored in reverse. Then when I try to do a window fake. The killer will appear to lunge at the window and MISS me as I turned right yet he still gets credit for the hit. Its really annoying.
I don't see how it could be my connection or anything either as I always have some tight encounters AS killer. Its when im the survivor things get so inconsistent. P2p made sense...yet now we are on dedicated.

its probably inconsistent because of the killers ping
its one of my gripes with dedicated servers, you cant see the killers ping at all

Every game I play when I go from my wraith main to my Claudette main. I play the song simply irresistible when a killer chases me😂.When I hide and the killer goes right by me and I slowly go the other direction when blending in with the environment 😀.

I stopped trying to 360 or juke because the servers just don't allow me to.
I get hit with elbows instead of weapons.
None of the hits NOW make sense. P2P was much better.

I'd like to know too. Once in a blue moon, I'd do the 360 move and buy a bit of time. Other than that, once the killer is in range, it's a hit. It'd be nice to see the ping, or better yet, overhaul dedicated servers to make it better for everyone.

There's no way to consistently do it without fail. The odds of it working are always going to depend on how patient and accurate the killer is. Someone's who good isn't going to fall for it much if at all.
Some tips to do it better:
- Spins: Go one way, then back then other and wrap around the killer. It's easy enough to just follow the survivor and hit them, but if you switch directions, they've gotta' keep track of you as you spin around them. Also try to be unpredictable. Don't spin the same way each time, maybe throw a fake spin in there every once in a while.
- Fake vaults: Run out from the wall first, make it look like you're going for the fast vault. As you run towards the vault, face the window; it'll make it look more convincing as if you've already pressed the button.
Some tips to counter it better:
- Patience. Don't swing early just because. Usually if they're spinning or fake vaulting, it's because they know they're going to get hit anyway. Don't feel pressured into swinging as soon as possible. Quick attacks make it way harder to miss.
But again, at the end of the day, it's not going to work every time. Don't count on it.

With dedicated servers and difference in what each person sees explains this. As killer you see something close almost hit but to the other survivor they may Have been pretty far so it looks correct. This works as survivor too seeing something that shouldn’t have hit but to the killer they were right on you. Because it’s on the server I don’t think it really matters with ping other than what you see on your screen since everyone is connecting to a server and the servers are the “host” deciding what counts as hits or what not. Good thing on either side is to try not to rely on those instances where a little mistake could cost it due to the servers so may result in earlier pallet drop or getting closer for a hit but at the same time it’s something pretty small to feel like you’re not getting cheated.
