Blight

So I actually really like the Blight. He's a lot of fun and is very cool. The problem is its really easy to dodge is attack and really hard to aim it. I think lunging out of his power should have increased turning and he should be able to break pallets without an ad on.

    Definitely. At the moment all you have to do is strafe to the left slightly and it's impossible for him to land his charge. That of course comes after the 10 seconds of wasting your time bouncing off ######### before you can even attempt a swing.

    I was having fun with Blight tonight too. 🙂 I mean, I totally played like crap tonight but I was having fun anyway, it wasn't Blight's fault I loop like a moron. 😄

    I feel like Umbra Salt's and Plague's Bile might be meta just for pre-swing corrections, but I have to do some more playing. I don't know if they have a measurable effect.

    My girl Adiris, buffing up other killers.

    The idea with Legion with their pallet jumping. I figure Blight would have something similar.

    Imo when he lunges it should act like an ordinary lunge. Full turning abilities, but only when executing the lunge and not the dash.

    I really do hope compound 33 is made base, at least the "destroy pallets on slam"

    It's baffling that Oni has an instadown with a 90 degree flick and the Blight has a single health state M1 with a 45 degree flick.

    Even more puzzling, we already went through this same song and dance with Oni's flick. They changeg it to 45, it was horrible, and then changed it to 90. Why do we have to have the same conversation again? You can not hit skilled players with a 45 degree lunge radius. It's not viable. It can't work.

    I wanted to like this killer, but it's yet another weak snoozefest who can't deal with safe pallets and isn't viable against 4 good survivors. Sure, ping ponging and smacking W gamers who don't look behind them is great and all, but I don't play the game to beat randos so I don't put much value in a pubstomper of a killer.
