We deployed a fix to solve an issue preventing players from unhooking, healing or picking up Survivors. Players will need to reboot to see the change reflected in-game. Thank you for your patience!

So when i and my friends playing vs Deathslinger we can't escape!!! When you are near to window and he grab you with hook (chain) he can hit you through his or when he grab you with hook and you escape this damage you.When you vault windows he can grab you again or you drop pallet too this is so bad for all survivors.Yes you can escape of his hook but hard!!! Please NURF Deathslinger.

You can share your answer 👇️.Thank you for your time!!!🙂

    You do realize Deathslinger carries a Rifle (it's extended reach to stabbing). The walls can be just so thick. When you vault through one and especially when you're telegraphing your next move to vault a window. That gives Deathslinger plenty time to shoot you through the window. Pull you close and give you a smack. This is a way to stop Loopers. Deathslinger was made for Loopers.


    Vaulting down pallets doesn't allow this. But again. You're trying to loop Deathslinger and the player sees it. Has the chance to shoot you before you pass the Pallet. How and why would BVR ever NERF him? Instead of dealing with looping. .....

    ....do Gens.

    He's pretty alright, they just need to calm down with the slowdowns on this killer (if you take that into consideration, he is by far, the slowest killer in the game. Technically nurse is, but she can blink, Deathslinger's power slows him down more than his already slow movement speed.)

    No its still nurse. With her stun and now cooldown. If she didnt have the cooldown shed be number 2 but now that she has to wait to blink and is at 100% or 105 cant remember. anyways nurse is slower with everything in consideration

    Deathslinger isn’t OP. He’s annoying to face in my opinion and I sigh every time I have to face one but he’s not OP. As long as you split up and don’t give him the chance to snowball you can take advantage of his slow speed to get gens done quickly.

    i mean unless she knows where survivors are at all times and can make it to a second floow without having to slog to range... plus second floors are a small part of maps anyways unless its game or midwitch

    The only issue I have with him is Quickscoping. It gives you pretty much no time at all to react so being caught out in the open is a big no no.

    Also pre-throw pallets, especially when you are injured.

    It's a projectile, not a hitscan. Also, it's as fast as a fully charged hatchet throw, but has a minuscule hitbox. Huntress can land a hit almost 1 meter away, while Deathslinger Can shoot at their finger and still miss. Don't move in a complete straight line and most of the time, you'll be fine.

    He's a killer anti-loop, so he's not OP. Stop crying

    While its true that its a projectile, it still goes fast enough and with no charge time before it that its basically impossible to react to it. You have to predict when a deathslinger is going to shoot rather than react to anything. You compared it to Huntress's hatchets and while its true a fully charged hatchet is the same speed... Theres that whole windup and sound que before hand. Typically you're not trying to dodge that hatchet by reacting to it but rather utilizing your faster speed to build distance while putting trees and such inbetween you and the Huntress.

    A good Deathslinger is entirely unbeatable in a chase. But he is super beatable in a trial, because he cannot get good map pressure, and he cannot snowball.

    When I saw the title I had a feeling I shouldn’t bother coming to read what you wrote. I should have trusted my feeling.

    That's a pretty big catch you got with such a bad bait.

    He is not OP, he is just annoying and frustrating to play against.
