Please Nerf The Artist
I was expecting different changes from the Artist, it seems as though they only changed one thing about her which was resetting the repel action when running into a dire crow. With that being said she’s still gonna be a killer that you HAVE to hold W against because she can set 3 traps wherever she wants and it can go through walls infinitely through the entire map and this is just her base kit, I assume there are add ons to make it even stronger. She’s basically pyramid head on steroids and she will be the new Spirit in this game. Only time will tell when they’ll fix her cause you know…. It only took them a few years to fix spirit.

It begins!

You make it sound like we just got Nurse 2.0
What happened to giving it some time playing against her and learning her weakness like you're supposed to do with every new killer that releases. This constant whining about wanting to nerf even moderately good killers instead of trying to git gud first is going on my nerves.
11 -
Because we did give it time and learned how to play against her? Which actually, you really can’t. But that’s literally the point of the PTB. She has no weakness. Tracking, possibly THE best anti-loop in the game, 115% movement speed, power that can go through walls and the entire map. She was a problem in the PTB and she’s still a problem now so…

Not really, her crows to do damage need proper setup, they took away the iddle damage the crows did on the PTB, so she has to managed a good shoot or an M1 atack, shes strong, theres no doubt about her, but shes far from being pyramid head 2.0, shes her own killer.
I been watching otz this morning and againts people who dont know her yea, shes VERY strong, but so far hes been geting a lot of 4 full escapes with cordinate groups.
Shes a good killer, im honestly hoping they dont nerf her as shes in a good spot, shes strong but not overwheling, her perks for the most part are fun.
People need time to learn to counter her, but as always survivors jump the wagong way to fast

well said

If she uses all 3 crows, chances are good you can remove them before she gets her ability back anyways.
My only concerns with her right now is the fact that there is no delay between her firing her crows, and the crows starting to fly, and that the animation cooldown after she fires her crows is too short and doesn't slow her down enough. So it makes it almost impossible to dodge her crows when she has line of sight on you, and even if you dodge her crows, chances are fairly good that she'll then just get an M1 hit against you, because of the weak cooldown.
But those are just impressions from the ptb. I think we need to give it a few days before we can really judge whether she might need a nerf or not, and if they do nerf her, I hope they only nerf her by giving her slightly more counterplay, so she still stays very strong. We need more strong killers like her, it's definitely nice to see such a strong killer added to DBD.

No WE didn't. You did. Console players cannot partake in testing. Stop whining. She was just released TODAY.
13 -
Ah yes, the six days of a PTB that only a small part of the player base can access and even fewer people actually play matches in was certainly enough to reveal of her secrets. /s
She wasn't a problem on the PTB and is unlikely to be a problem in the live-build either. I'll repeat what I said earlier: git gud first.
6 -
You say git gud but I’m most likely a better survivor than you. Lmao.
0 -
But your worse than a guy who just got a new killer :D
8 -
Ah, and here we go: no more actual arguments left (not that you had any), so you go for an ad hominem. Classic.
I stick to what I said earlier, there's no reason to nerf her and people need to learn how to play against her first. A PTB is not enough for that.

**You’re, if you’re going to come at me at least learn how to spell correctly, and secondly I haven’t even got the chapter lmao.
0 -
Annnnnnnd they argue the technicality.
5 -
No, you argued a spelling error as if that was in any way relevant.
Than you said you don’t have the chapter, which is a strawman.

No actually, he doesn't. You do. You look petty, childish, and mad. If you were as good a survivor you claim you wouldn't care about any killer considering how easy it is to play against all of them. Get off your dunning krueger horse and accept that you're in the wrong here.
Post edited by Rizzo on8 -
Whether I own the chapter or not is not the big picture, the thread is talking about how she should be tuned down and how I was personally expecting different changes on the live version.
0 -
…This is the textbook definition of a strawman but I’ll bite.
Just learn to evade chases, not run loops.
5 -
She's been out for less than a day, stop crying
5 -
Me? In the wrong? There’s people who play both sides, only killer, and only survivor who also think she’s braindead. That’s just the truth. Some people can’t handle the truth. For you to say I’m in the wrong is your own opinion, but just know I’m not the only one who thinks she needs nerfs despite skill level being involved. 😊
0 -
Of course you aren't the only one who think she needs nerfs. No one is ever the only one to think anything. it doesn't mean you're right.
4 -
As far as this thread is concerned, you are definitely the only one.
2 -
New killer is released and like clockwork bad survivors are already asking for nerfs instead of getting better themselves.
5 -
Well, I think you create this post 2 days after boon perks were out..

Irrelevant argument.
Post edited by Tr1nity on2 -
You’re right it’s irrelevant but it’s funny cause I get called out for “complaining” about something that just released when they did the exact same. 💀
0 -
And? One single perk has much less overall knowledge to it than an entire new killer.
also as time went on boons proved to be stronger than initially thought sooo.
6 -
At this point it’s clear what side your on. The sad truth is that on these forums people can’t ever have opinions or say something about the killer side because right away killer biased wolf packs comes at you.

Back on topic though, she's more or less just a far ranged executioner. The counterplay for him is almost the same as artist, don't run loops, break LOS, make tracks. Overcome is very well suited for this operation as well.
Post edited by Rizzo on5 -
Artist fine.
6 -
The Artist was just released today and you wanna nerf her already instead of learning to play against her. There are people who are also trying to learn as her
3 -
Agreed.
3 -
Survivors need loops to survive on their end, just like killers need their power, not saying to remove her power but to tune it down. She has not changed at all.
0 -
Don't loop, break LOS and run away, ive done that numerous times to much better killers, in solo q
5 -
Btw, you can call it "looping" to make yourself feel skilled or whatever but it's really just running around in circles around a shack.
Post edited by Rizzo on4 -
Ah yes, all 6 hours to learn how to perfectly play against her and determine her strength. . .
3 -
**3 days
0 -
. . . She literally came out today.
6 -
Wasn’t talking about today… THE PTB. She’s the exact same from the PTB.

please give people a few days to learn to counter her before saying she's OP.
0 -
"Because we did give it time" That's what you said, right? "We" implies everyone, including console players, so if you decide to speak for everyone then make sure it actually applies to everyone instead of trying to make excuses for your inability to take time to learn counter play.
Post edited by Rizzo on3 -
I've literally never seen a killer as bad as her. She's just awful. Trapper and huntress alone make her useless
0 -
First of all, she got nerfed quite a lot already. So already wrong here.
You can't injure with idle crows and that she can't use crows around hook is also really annoying. Not really because of camping, but I see someone on BBQ and can't use my power on them in time...
PTB isn't and never was good to see how strong are killers, because matchmaking is most RNG thing I have ever seen there. You need good survivors to evaluate a killer and you just don't get it there.
And how many people actually play more than 10 games on PTB? Very few, most players just go there, try everything in custom and leave.
Post edited by Rizzo on2 -
You know boons were OP (and still are). You having to go through my posts to provide a counter argument shows you don't have anything impactful to say and only want a Killer nerfed because you don't like the Killer
3 -
pretty funny a community for a M rated game has a harder time staying constructive in discussion relating to balance than the League of Legends community.
0 -
so what if she's the exact same from the PTB??? A very small portion of the playerbase only tested her so we should be letting everyone else test her as well. It wouldn't be fair to nerf a killer that someone couldn't play as yet.
1 -
I'd rather face Pyramidhead than this unbalanced trash. Why nerf Deathslinger when they release things like this lol
BHVR again, of course.
