The plague's power
So she pukes and infects survivors with something? That dev stream was really short and I'm pretty sure they left out some important info regarding the killer like what's this upgraded version of her power that she gets from the fountain and what exactly does her power do to survivors besides spread the plague around the map. There is a timer similar to the pig once a survivor is infected, WHAT IS THAT. As for her perks they are alright I guess. She gets a obsession perk that removes her terror radius when she hits the obsession, one that shows all nearby survivors when you down someone if they are in you terror radius, and one that blocks the farthest gens from being done. Imo they seem weak but we don't have exact numbers yet.

The upgraded version of her power is the ability to harm survivor with her ability. So it gives her an additional midrange attack. What we don't know for sure are the drawbacks for beeing sick.

I don't think they said it gave her a ranged attack
I believe they said that the fountains heal survivors, but the fountains can be infected to harm survivors.

Yeah they didn't go into great detail with the ability at all. Wish they would have spent more time explaining the ability and some of the add-ons.

They forgot to mention this in the stream.

They probably didn't say much on purpose so we'd still be scratching our heads and still be eager to get the PTB. Which we would be anyways but they want to give us the big reveal upfront and then let that sink in until we get the details a bit later.

That's it? they get sick and are noisy?
1 -
They also can't heal.

And broken. I assume they mean the broken status effect , like when using deliverance.

I'm guessing the "sick and noisy" will be base but add-ons will increase / change the effect of the plague?

Oh boy, Legion v2 incoming, and I have thought she will be fine...
Depends how much time it needs to get fully sick. If it is like 2 minutes then hye bye Plague. They will just wait to 1:50 and drink to slow her. Plus I wonder if 2 survivors can heal in one fountain and how much fountains there are.

She moves at regular speed, nothing like Legion.

So, basically this new killer will be the Doctor 2.0. Not impressed at all.

Nice, so a better Doctor. You infect Survivors by puking on them or pallets/gens and they can spread it to others and eventually become Broken and make noise notifications. This is bad ass, I love sickness based characters <3 I'm excited for her cosmetics, shame the dead Survivors don't turn into zombies.

I was talking about power - if the timer is long, then there will be no point in healing/healing quickly.
0 -
I wonder if she can stack the corrupted fountains.
0 -
They're injured and become Broken (unable to heal). I'd say that's acceptable for a status effect granted by a ranged power.
1 -
Oh, well in the stream they say the more you run while being infected the weaker you become.
2 -
Oh right! That's actually decent then. I wonder how long the timer is.
0 -
Because it acts like madness. Madness goes down if you remain still, idk about the sickness tho
0 -
They said she can use the corrupted fountains to power up her ability, making it damage on hit as well.
0 -
I never knew that
0 -
They said on stream that once a survivor heals on a fountain the fountain gets corrupted.

Oh boy, average forum newbie complaints v2.
0 -
Lol really? Hah
it won’t go down a lvl but it will take your current lvl to 0 if you stand still

Bold words, for a "forum newbie"

Now when they say becoming fully infected damages you and gives the broken status, does this only mean from full health to injured or does this also mean if they are already injured then the damage will put them into dying state? I doubt they would include the dying state for already being injured but man that would actually be strong.
0 -
Lol this is why I think they should have shown off a full game with her. Sounds like everyone has a lot of questions.
Ah well, hopefully ptb tomorrow and we can all find out.
0 -
Were did you get that info?
0 -
To me sounds like a legion that can actually slow down the game
0 -
Legion with dirty knife slows the game down really hard.

Not aknowledging there was a Steam forum before this newborn platform. Hm.
0 -
How does the sickness affect doing gens while sick?
0 -
Do you need something to giggle your ego, or what? I did nothing to you, but you are trying hard to get on my ass

"Bold statement from a forum newbie".
0 -
Yeah, exactly how you called me
0 -
Errr... I don’t know or remember, it’s how madness works tho, and considering they said that the more you do under the effect of sickness the weaker you get, I assume it works the same
