Any predictions on what the first killswitch or nerf will be?🤔
...With the upcoming patch obviously😇
I dont think it will be boon totems. Those wont be nerfed for a while (if ever).
Possibly a killer or a map.
My bet will be either a plague add on or trapper sack (I can see casuals complaining about it being op).
Any predictions?

Boon Totems will be nerfed.
First kill switch will be some perk that's bugged.

I can see blight or nurse being nerfed.
First kill switch? Dead Dawg or RPD. They have proven to be the most unstable maps in the game.

They nerfed nurse already he’ll she was nerfed 5-6 times. Blight has gotten nothing but buffs I don’t think he’s getting nerfed anytime soon

I've only played this game for 5 months so im just thinking of the now. High skilled nurse players are very strong and i think blight has a really good power and really good add-ons. Stronger than the average killers.

Nah, neither of the Boon Totems help survivors against the current Face-Camp/Proxy-Tunnel meta. Circle of Healing does the same thing as a medkit, so why would a survivor want to use this anymore than self-care is currently used.
Shadow Step may be used some but probably not more than distortion.
- Face Camping/Proxy-Tunneling: survivors have to have a Decisive Strike, Borrowed Time or Sprint Burst for tunneling
- For Slugging: Unbreakable, Soul Guard (sometimes)
- Faster Gens: Prove Thyself, Built to Last, Stake Out, etc
- Extending Chases: Endurance Perks, Iron Will
Ask you can see, the Meta perks are Meta for a reason. Survivors don't have slots for a boon totem that can be replaced by a medkit or another player.

Plus, who in the heck is going to buy the Survivor if the her perks sucks. Which if the boons get nerfed, they will suck. This survivor doesn't come with a Killer, so the only reason to get her is her Perks. BHVR isn't going to screw it's bottom line by making a useless survivor that survivor players don't want.

Killswitch will be something that's bugged because thats why it was added as for nerf, i think they might nerf the healing of boon totem since it allows griefers to prolong the game indefinite amount of time against less experienced players

Either Wealth (again) cause people can't figure out how to run him since he's obviously OP, and Boon Totems are a hot topic so nerf the aoe to 4 meters and only one per match
0 -
The next nerf probably will be on Fred, like removing him from the game
0 -
Or multiple perks

Map: RPD will be killswitched again, I can feel it.
Killer: I'm gonna assume that the Pig video tape addon will get killswitched
Survivor: Babysitter/Guardian will have a bug that gives survivors permanent haste somehow, meaning this perk will get kill switched

killswitch isnt for op things, it is for bugged or broken things.

If Nurse gets nerfed again I legitimately am just not going to deal with it, what Nurse needs isn't Nerfs it's QoL improvement, let's be honest here the only people that play Nurse now are old players who have stuck with Nurse for a long time.
The Nurse is hard enough when you are learning her, because the rework has made her basekit frustrating to use as a beginner. She is barely accessible and the matches are heavily in favor of the survivors, so typically new players have to play a lot to even begin to figure out her because it's hard to learn a killer when you consistently get stomped.
To learn nurse you basically need to relearn everything, because Nurse is nothing like the other killers think of it like playing huntress, because there are some things they share, so if you play huntress chances are you will recognize some of Nurse's weaknesses right away.
People want to pretend that the killer has no counterplay and is just an instant win every game, but it's honestly more focused on how the survivors play that makes it or breaks it for the match. If you and your team aren't knowledgeable about the weaknesses of a Nurse, chances are a good Nurse is going to destroy you and your team. The people I play against who actually play Nurse do the best against her because they know what works against her.

You really think so? It will be a money maker.

The addons or their basekit🤔
0 -
Add-ons probably. I know a lot of people complain about alchemist ring

Aren't most broken things in dbd OP?
0 -
Yeah I can see the pig trap addon will be deemed OP by casuals.

Make the money, nerf. Make new OP thing, sell it. Make the money off of it, nerf it. This is the mobile game scheme. Dbd is technically a mobile game, so perhaps they learned a bit of microtransaction-fu along the way to apply to the main game?

No, op means it is very strong, broken means it isn't working as intended

I like everyone saying they wouldn't nerf boon totems but turns out they nerfed boon totems from PTB to live
1 -
It's not like they dont make enough with cosmetics🤣
0 -
Think the backlash was enough🤣 imagine going through the circle of healing stacks where survivors healed faster than you cooldown animation from swinging 😱

Fair enough 😇

The solution in a game that is survivor sided isn't to nerf good killers. It's to buff bad killers to give variation of play.

I mean obviously. It just again shows that this idea that the devs never listen to the community is just not true. They certainly don't always listen as much as they maybe should, but they do listen.
Of course, looking at some people in this community, you can't blame BHVR for being cautious when it comes to listening to their community at times.
