Do you have a Killer that you think you miss the most basic attacks out of all Killers?
I would say Doctor is one of them which I sometimes struggle to get a hit with, the distance with his weapon to me seems so weird.

Nurse. Some hits that feel like they should connect don't, and some that feel like they shouldn't connect do.
2 -
I also have trouble with Doctor. For me, the other one is Plague. Which is sad because Doctor and Plague were the two characters I bought when I first got the game, and I literally never got better at judging strike distance with them.

For some reason my rather pathetic butt wiggles have a nack for making Docs and Trappers miss way more often than they should.

Nurse, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with her.
0 -
Doctor, his weapon just seems so big when I swing, or maybe it covers the screen? Either way I'm omega boosted when I play him.
0 -
I'm actually surprised about the amount of Docs on here. I think it's a tie between Plague and Nurse for me. Blight's also up there.
0 -
I think it might just be my ping allowing me to get those slightly out of reach hits. But now I have to get used to the actual lunge distance.
But... yeah, mostly on doc for whatever reason.

For me Pyramid Head, most of the time I miss hits with him.
2 -
For me it´s Ghostface. The difference between his FOV and my mains (all tall) throws me off sometimes.

Nurse 100%. Her hitbox/lunge on blink attacks makes absolutely no sense. You can give a survivor a haircut and miss, then swing from Narnia at that same survivor 10 seconds later and somehow clip their ankle. I know a few Nurse players who have turned off crossplay for this reason.

Nurse and Michael are the two killers for me. more Michael since I barely play Nurse but it's a thing.

Yes Doc is F tier to me and when I hit P3 with him he will collect dust because of this lol. Also honorable mention to PH, spirit, and every other game ONI. Makes no sense if you see me with a giant sword HAVE NO FEAR but clown, legion, freddy, etc and there butter knives you better watch out. Also I feel I can hit you from 2 mile a way with Charlotte really liking her lunge.

Legion
sometimes it’s like they’re swinging their hand at the survivors w/o the knife in it... jus not connecting
0 -
Other than the obvious learning curve with Nurse... I feel like Blight's camera POV maybe throws my range perception off a bit sometimes.
0 -
Blight. It's probably the PoV being so low, but his lunge range seems smaller than it should be and I always manage to just miss lunges with him.
0 -
I actually miss a lot with demo but it's usually because I have like 8 stacks of STBFL and I just get caught up in the moment.
As for the killer I whiff the most as...hmn.....lets avoid saying nurse again and instead say Pyramid head tbh. His attack is weird despite having such a long weapon he is very generous with such a short attack. It's really weird and I whiff it a lot.

When I play clown with the Halloween knife I get distracted with how cool it looks so I miss feels bad man:(
0 -
nurse i am a really bad nurse player
0 -
Twins. Something's dodgy with their lunge, it feels wrong; like it doesn't have any weight.
0 -
Hag. For some reason her lunge seems shorter compared to other killers.
0 -
Blight when not using the power lol.
0 -
I miss most often with Spirit for some reason. After her, though, probably Doc.
0 -
Blight; the FOV always makes survivors feel closer than they are. (and for some reason my frame drops get worse when I play him)
0 -
ghostface for sure.
1 -
Nurse and Hag after she teleports.
0 -
Do they have vastly different range? I had no idea. For me it feels the same hitting someone as PH as it does with Clown (despite the fact they're blades are about 1m+ difference in length!
0 -
Apart from Freddy and Nurse, who very clearly have longer lunges when you play them, there is no real difference outside of the fact that the first person perspective makes it feel different, but this difference can make you feel you're closer than you are, etc.
1 -
Gotcha. For me then I guess any character with low speed I may find the easiest to whiff, since I'm used to timing an attack with a Killer that would get from A to B slightly faster, so I guess hag.
1 -
This. I don't know why but I feel like his Lunge distance is shorter than average.
1 -
Doctor and Spirit. I’m not totally sure why but I think it’s because their weapons are large, and it feels like they should go further than they do.
1 -
This. She just feels so slidey and like the lunge doesnt really go anywhere.
0 -
Absolutely Blight, might be because of his awful PoV but I feel like I'm missing many attacks that should have hit otherwise. Also his ability has a shorter hit range than normal so it's harder to hit through windows but that's intended design, his PoV needs fixing though.
0 -
i dont think i do.
though i often tend to miss my attacks after using my power as Spirit or Nurse.
0 -
Plague. Her high camera angle makes me feel slower than I actually am. I lunge expecting a hit,but it feels like I fall short because of the perspective. Sometimes I actually run Unrelenting or whatever the missed attack cooldown one is.
0 -
Hag.
0 -
Nurse definitely. Still learning tho so it's okay I guess.
0 -
Blight. Sometimes when I think I'll hit someone through a window while they're vaulting it doesn't connect. Maybe is has something to do with his POV.
