New perk to stop tunneling killers
The killers kill 1 survivor at the start of the game, by tunneling him. And then the game is lost. We really need 1 perk to stop this tunneling, so please devs make the next survivor with an antitunnel perk. It should activate when you are Chased for a long time and deactivate when you are not chased anymore and then activate again in a short time and give you deep wound status effect as long as he still tunnels you. I played as a survivor in the past and every killer tunneled me. I don't use flashlight. I don't use key. I don't teabag. I'm a clean survivor and I met many killers tunneling for no reason just to make the game worse for the others survivors. 5 gens and 3 survivors. At least if a survivor DC at the start of the game or is killed from tunneling make 4 gens left instead of 5.

Why is the game lost then? 3 gens should have be done by the time he is dead, unless you go for unsave unhooks.
Also, most killer dont tunnel to make your game worse, but to make their game easier.

Not this community giving a bad name to a sane strategy of someone whose main goal is to kill survivors and prevent them from winning.

Yes because targeting a player and ruining their fun on a game with a ######### load of waiting times isn’t a bad thing...

There already is an anti tunnel perk in the game called decisive strike.
If killers tunnel you, get better at chases. There is almost no way to catch a survivor that knows how to loop without completely losing the game. You should learn that playing as a survivor, you are not a solo player and you are a team against one killer. What may be individually bad for you, may be amazing for the team. In fact, one of the easiest ways to win as a killer, especially against a better than average survivor team, is to have one or two survivors be very selfish and don't take hooks.

That's just the nature of the beast. If you don't understand how to be time efficient as killer we can't help you.
I will 100% tunnel the ######### out of a survivor if I'm behind and I know it will benefit me. It's all about reading the survivors behavior and adapting. If tunneling is going to suddenly make survivors leave their generators, become altruism magnets and try to body block to save the tunneled survivor giving me free injuries I'm going to commit. It's all about being able to adapt to your game. If the killer is exclusively tunneling you then you're more than welcome to use as many pallets as you can. If you are the weak link on your team and end up going down in less than 30 seconds each time though it's 100% on you and I'd tunnel you to just for the easy game.
Don't take that personal by the way when I say you it's just in terms of if a survivor cannot run a killer.

If you are tunneled out of the game and 5 gens are left, either your teammates are doing nothing or your chases are really short.
As a killer I expect to lose a gen or two before I finish my first chase.

This is a pvp game

Yes, because your job as killer is to make the game long as possible and fun for the survivor at all costs.
2 -
that's good strategy. However, if BEhavior wants survivors to play, they need their part of the game to be fun too. Tools to resist tunnelling and camping are needed
1 -
So basically you tell us, you are bad at looping, with all the pallet ressources left on the map? Your problem, not the killer ones.
2 -
If a killer wants you to die not a single existing tool in the game is going to stop that. Your tools are understanding killer powers and habits, pallets and windows around the map and what ever perks you decided to bring with you. At that point it's all based on whether your teammates are doing generators or are being useless and hiding because they heard a terror radius for 0.25 milliseconds. At that point this isn't a killer issue it's the survivors you got paired with being useless.
In fact most complaints a survivor has about how unfair killers are towards them can be accounted for your survivor teammates being useless. That is the reality of the situation.

I never said it’s the killers job, so please only reply if you can read

You must be new to suggest anything tied to chase mechanics.
Suggest looking up the original Legion and the videos made around that time.

There is a good anti-tunnel perk already. It's called Decisive Strike, and is a teachable from Laurie Straud (may have the spelling wrong) if you haven't already, I would suggest picking up the Halloween chapter to get her (also Myers, who is a fun killer to play)
1 -
I hear you. And I support everyone's right to play as they want.
But, can we say this is the most fun style of killer to face? And at what point in your DBD career do you decide playing for fun is more engaging then tunneling for the 4k.
Admittedly, it took over 3 years for me to stop sweating so much, and sometimes I still want to.
But, that is all ego. I am now avoiding tunneling at all costs. Even my precious 4k.

It's an okay perk, but unless it's EGC with open doors. A killer just resumes tunneling you after 5 seconds.

I actually suggested a perk change to off the record in the feedback section but didn't get any responses to it.

If you're chased for a long time and the Killer hasn't already smacked you, you're doing a valuable job of keeping them busy while your other survivors should be working on objective. At that point, you don't need a perk to stay alive because you've done something valuable. This only encourages Killers to commit to short chases, which means they'll bounce between survivors and disrupt them constantly - you don't want this as a Survivor.
Sometimes bad Killers will tunnel you. They won't get many points for it, especially if they decide to sit by the Hook after. It's the nature of the beast and ultimately, you just have to shake yourself down and head into the next game. Once you learn the loops and pallets, learn when to slam them down and when you can mke another circle, you'll make yourself a less appealing chase target, especially if you can draw it out. I've legitmately had a Killer tunnel me fromt he get-go, and my team were able to complete 3 gens by the time he strung me up on a hook.

Tunneled a guy yesterday.
He managed to get use out of borrowed time, decisive strike, dead hard, and unbreakable.
Still had him on death hook before the 3rd gen popped. Felt kind of badly, but they kept unhooking him within 5 seconds of me putting him on the hook, and he was always the first survivor I saw.
Easy victory from there. It's honestly making me consider tunneling as a valid tactic. When it works it snowballs pretty hard.
0 -
have you heard of two perks called "Decisive Strike" and "Borrowed Time"?
cause they do quite literally exactly what you're asking for - they harshly punish tunneling killers and allow your team to get a lot more time on generators.
1 -
correct.
but the killer wastes valuable time. time that your team should be using to fix gens.
tunneling only works if you do it fast. if you waste too long on a single survivor, everyone else will be out in 5 min.
0 -
Agree, but that is if the tunneled one can loop. If they go down fast, and you are not in a swf, well you may be lucky to finish a gen or two.
Especially with some of the fast unsafe no BT hook rescues done in solo q.

if this was CSGO what you said, is a one tap deagle headshot :D well said
0 -
yeah...sadly, not everyone climbs the ranks by learning to run from the killer.
or learning to wait for the killer to go away before unhooking.
or to at least take a hit for the unhooked.

NEW PERK TO STOP SWF

Have you tried playing emmersive? That is the solution to every problem in dead by daylight.
0 -
The last thing we need is another anti-tunnel perk.
1 -
You make it so that if the same survivor gets hooked within moments of being saved, the hook phase is delayed by 5-10 seconds.
0 -
The majority of competent killers will study their opponents and if they tunnel, they tunnel the weak link
So maybe they werent tunneling you for no reason
0 -
if is a m1 killer and u are getting caught soon then the killer of course will see you as a weaklig so will tunnel you, get better at the game and the killer will drop chase. the best part of the game is the interacion with the killer not pressing m1 on gens as survivor.
