Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Black Splinter: The ultra-rare add-on that changes everything

So I was about to shut down DbD last night-ish (~5am) and was looking back at my original main: The Nurse. I probably haven't played her in years at this point. Anyway, I was looking at all my unused offerings/items and spotted one I had totally forgot about called the "Black Splinter." Ultra-rare, really? Was this just a promotional thing to get people to buy the Halloween dlc? Ahh, DbD nostalgia :)


For those that don't know what this offering was:

Black Splinter

Allows you to take on the role of The Shape for the next Trial.

    So, the reason I thought of this was that I've been hearing a lot about Survivors being able to tell which Killer you picked before the trial begins (and tailoring their perks). Yeah, this would definitely shake things up a bit. Although I do wish it wouldn't make you run perkless.

    Edit: I LOVE that idea for the Survivors archive challenges!

    A great way to get around the archive problem and just in general allow people to try characters. Should really give you at least that characters teachables though.

    Even though I buy all dlc day one I still think splinters should never have been taken out. Some people like to try new killers first, there's a lot of difference between watching a streamer play a new killer and playing them yourself. The try before you buy splinters should be brought back.

    I do like the idea mentioned above about having them for the challenges for the archives.

    It just frustrated me when I got glass splinters because I already had the pig lol. Waste of bloodpoints :(
