    Spirit is stronger by far. The nurse at least has some counter. Spirit is the best killer in the game imo

    Spirit's add-on's are also wayyyyyy better

    Spirit is stronger because she's easier to learn, therefore more people play her.

    Nurse still 100% ignores defenses. There's fake outs to counter, but so are there for Spirit. Especially if you can tell when she phases.

    People just don't try enough with the Nurse, she's way better. Spirit is just behind.

    If we’re looking at the highest level of play a god nurse will be better than a spirit in almost every situation

    Spirit will always be much lower risk for almost as high of a reward. Consistency is an important part of the equation and she's leaps and bounds ahead in that department.

    Also, she's not map dependant at all (with add-ons).

    Get Lery's even when running double recharge on Nurse and even if the survivors have half a brain between the 4 of them, you get an insta loss.

    Nurse just straight up ignores the game's rules with her blinks, so while with Spirit survivors can loop and mind game, with Nurse they have to put up a whole different strategy.


    I also think that Spirit is much harder to play than Nurse, so there is that.

    That's really not saying much given how legendarily bad the nurse's add-ons currently are.

    Yes but even her "Joke/For Fun" add-ons still suck at even being fun most of the time as half of them just turn off your power or make you have one gimmicky and annoying to use blink.

    I mean have you really had that much fun with any of her add-ons?

    god nurse is stronger than spirit. but it's also depends on what map it is.

    spirit is better overall

    Nurse has more potential but she’s way harder than Spirit.

    From my experience, Spirit is the second hardest killer in the game, only losing to Hillbilly. I don't know why, but even with good headphones, I can't do consistently good with her, as for Nurse, I can get precise blink really easily. It doesn't mean she is easy, since she still needs practice, but compared to Spirit, I definitely think she is easier.

    Nurse will always be the strongest killer in the game, unless they rework her power from scratch. She plays a separate game, not Dead by Daylight, but she plays the Nurse Game. Pallets? Nah. Windows? What the hell even are those? Breakable Walls? Who breaks those?

    Spirit is stupidly overpowered but barely close to the titan we all know and love, the Nurse.

    Being easier to use =/= stronger. More consistent, sure. Not stronger

    The only reason I say nurse is stronger is because she doesn't have to wait that long for her power to come back. With spirit, there is risk involved. The survivors can sometimes get really lucky and take you on a longer chase, but if you are good with nurse, there is no chase.

    Nurse is stronger while Spirit is more overpowered.

    Although, my definition of "overpowered" is something that is not only too strong, but also requires no skill to use.

    Nurse is significantly stronger, she's just a lot more difficult

    Spirit is easier to learn but nurse will always have the ability to be number 1 in the right hands.

    a good nurse is LEAGUES better than a good spirit, Nurse is just harder.

    Are we talkin' meta build w/ best add-ons, base kit, or something in the middle (average add-ons, decent perks but not meta)?

    Nurse can completely ignore most survivor mechanics (Looping, pallets, windows, etc.).

    A good Nurse is impossible to win against. I have never won against a good nurse.

    But against Spirit, you can still win.

    Nurse is way better when mastered
