I do not agree with the "NERF to the DOCTOR"
After a long time and after his rework the "Snap" mode was established as a method of healing by the rework that was done to him and currently helps the doctor to be in a good place thanks to nurse calling to catch the unsuspecting survivors, but ... Now I see that the devs say that the modes of "Snap" "Wake-up" "mend" are not healing methods, you have put a great nerf to the doctor.
I think that it is not necessary to do that to the doctor ... actually since you have not considered the way of "trying" the new killer as a method of healing because you have put all the ways out of the perk of "nurse calling".
Speaking of course, I do not agree with that nerfeo to the doctor, sorry for my English! But .. what do you think?

- Specific actions that are not considered 'Healing' actions, will not be affected by perks that refer to healing.
Mend, Snap out of it, and Wake up, are no longer considered healing actions, and as such, it will be affected by perks that refer to healing.

It's a joke that MEND isn't considered a healing acting.
What a ######### joke.13 -

There are actually bugs that are that old, but that's usually bugs that put killer at a disadvantage. :P

They probably only did this because too many people were comparing snap out of it to mending, and they don't wanna put nurses calling on mending0

Kinda off topic: was i the only doctor not running NC?2

This is true.

No, I only just recently got NC. Still though, even if not using it... The threat of it can change survivor gameplay.
Anyone that knew how to play wouldn't try and snap out of it within his terror radius anyways because the skill check windows would be smaller. There was also the fact that all he had to do was get you within his terror radius and you'd probably jump up and scream interrupting it if he's in treatment mode.
I never ran it on him because of those reasons, it wasn't worth the perk slot for the drawbacks.

It should never have been part of NC anyway. There are already 2 natural means of tracking when in Madness 3. The random screaming and the illusion auras.

A survivor freshly in madness 2 isn't going to immediately go back to 3 from static field alone, giving you time to leave. On the other hand, you may feel inclined to snap out of it asap to avoid the random screaming that comes with it.

Exactly, i had NC on my perk list but i didnt want to use it on my doctor.0 -
I want all doc mains to run insane and run a protest when this patch goes live.
Run a full slugging build and make survivors DC left and right.
Otherwise there cant be justice

Not having to equip nurses means doctors can switch up their builds. It is a good change.

It was never NEEDED, but now there's no threat of it. That's in no way a good change for doc3

I run it sometimes but it is big nerf to him.
I think you need to learn what the definition of "big" is. An interaction with a small number of perks that a small number of players use is not a "big" nerf. It is a minor nerf to something that didn't make very much sense to begin with.

Yes an aura reading perk that allows the killer to see the survivor snapping out of madness is taken away. I could see how we disagree i didn't eat paint chips as a kid.Dreamnomad said:@fcc2014 said:

Yet it wasn't impacted by Mangled.The game has changed. The Doctor has his problems and they should fix them after they finish the sad boy killers, but this change is necessary and inconsequential to Doctor's success.2 -
Who needs aura reading anything on Doctor? He has built in BBQ&Chili and Deerstalker if you use him correctly1

Not exactly his auras andscreams are rng based, the screams being completely negated with calm spirit and you touch the illusion to remove itHuN7r3sS said:Who needs aura reading anything on Doctor? He has built in BBQ&Chili and Deerstalker if you use him correctly0 -

True, but almost no one runs Calm Spirit, even after the buff. And how many people actually know about that second strategy?

I don't agree with it either. Doctor didn't need any nerfs at all. NC was part of his offensive build, and now that's gone because the devs still give in to whiny Survivors (I used to use NC on him until I got BBQ but there's a lot of people who still like to use NC on Doc). I hope they like having to go against the gen-stopper builds more often.

100% this. They couldn't justify making mend immune to nurse's because of the doctor so they screwed doc over with his own spikey dildo club to say healing isn't healingLordGlint said:They probably only did this because too many people were comparing snap out of it to mending, and they don't wanna put nurses calling on mending0
