as she was the first dlc killer, with a very strong power for the game's modern standards, i launch a challenge, how would you make the nurse's power in 2021?

    Idk. I'd say though if the devs released Nurse now I'd bet she wouldn't be able to blink through walls, and that would be an ultra rare add-on lol

    Make her 110% and she can’t blink through walls.

    we can do further balancing from there

    It’s worth a try at least. No point in keeping nurse in her current state with her being bug ridden and unbalanced

    Isn’t he actually a nurse main?

    I do think it’s worth testing though. Nurse’s current power is just gamebreaking but she’d still be able to ignore windows and pallets anyway. Just LOS blocker would be more consistent since she can’t go through them but she can also be easier to learn with the 110% move speed

    Look at it from the view that it's a new killer and stop comparing it to what we currently have. This is what the thread is about: 'if Nurse was released NOW', not 'if Nurse was heavily nerfed 4 years later'

    @Topic, I think what I would do is make her move at 110 and she has one blink that's on a 4-5 second cooldown that can only go to where she can see. That would be it, not need for any kind of looking down cooldown or extra recovery.

    Same she is now. They reworked her a year ago.

    I don't think her power is unbalanced or broken at all, with the charges system applied in the nerf patch, shes more easy to avoid now. I was a nurse main and from time to time i still play her but not very often and let me tell you the reason. She is still good in the right hands, but after the nerf, shes too stressful/unfun to play. Therefore i prefer to play other killers instead.

    So imagine how is she for new players? When for me shes just unfun and stressful for other people is unfun, stressful and hard. Getting the point now of why asking for another nerf is crazy?

    Yes let's just make Killer with a 4.4 m/s which barely can use her power, and need to follow the hit and eat pallets gameplay, what a fun Killer to play AGAINST and not AS.

    Look at the most recent Killers, Trickster, Twins, Blight, Pyramid, Deathslinger, Oni, we have Killers with unique mechanics that requires Survivor to adapt and learn how to play against them, not just running in circles around a ######### piece of wood and dropping it like you are winning.

    We need more diversity in the chase mechanic, one that is fun for both sides.

    She's stressful to play?

    That's my nurse. I 4k-3khatch every single games and that's far from being her best perk/add-ons. 1-2 gen get done my my first-second hook but the snowball is real with her.

    Nurse has an addon which gives her a third blink but she can' t blink trough Walls and it's god damn terrible.

    110 movement and only 1 Blick sounds like the equalent of it.

    Currently Nurse is balanced, i maybe would take away her range addons and give her a bit of a faster power recovery.

    Edit: for better understanding

    I agree, i don't know how people just want to run around a thing like a benny hill show and find it fun. I as a survivor don't find that fun and i prefer unique killers with unique powers and unique ways of dealing with them.

    Give her a 30 second cooldown after using her power.

  • Kees_T

    She is stressful in the learning phase. As I can see, you're rank 9, so most of the Survivors you get are probably not that good and just run in a predictable way.

    Playing in rank 1 gives you a higher chances of going against really good Survivor, and that's where the pain and suffering comes when learning her there.

    How is a pity screenshot a proof of what you are saying? 🤣

    And i can see that you are playing in green rank 9.

    What happened to the " I 4k, 3k every match"? can't keep the red rank uh?

    Do you know how silly is that comment without posting at least a single vid? And in any case getting kills has nothing to do with how stressful is her power and the bugs you face as her.

    I can show you screenshots of 4k with Wraith or Pig and that make them poweful? Nope

    First it's not my first account, second by now I mostly play red/purple survivor. I started like a week ago rank 20, 0 perk/add-ons, can't go faster than the game allow me.


    On my other account I did Legion, Clown and Wraith rank 1 pre buff, those were stressful match at rank one but still the only sweaty ones were vs SWF. With Nurse I go out of my way so the game doesn't end too fast right now. We'll see when I start facing sweaty SWF red rank but I don't think it will be no where near as stressful as it was for Clown and Wraith considering she's leagues above them.

    It was a reasonable question, guys.

    Stop being so toxic to each other.

    If she was released in 2021, her power would take 30 seconds to charge for a single blink, storing two at most and the fatigue would be 10 seconds minimum.

    She would have have an additional power, like she leaves behind a post-blink trail that blinds you if you step into it.

  • Jane_Is_Mega_Thicc

    I would make her speed slightly faster and make her not able to blink through walls/objects. I would make her ability to blink through walls an ultra rare add on. If you swing during your first or second blink the cool down is longer along with the fatigue.

    I honestly think nurse would never be released in the current dbd state. She'd probably just have a completely different power.

    I might be biased since I play her but I wish they would release more killers like her... Large skill cap... Changes the gameplay. Sometimes I don't feel like playing cat and mouse in circles around a rock.

    She wouldn't be made today. Plain and simple.
