Nurse with Distressing and Infectious Fright is going to be quite powerful

    honestly sort of a good thing. a lot of players wont slug unless its obsession, and miss out on opportunities to snowball or create massive pressure

    Guessing it's for the new slug meta with the DS changes. Slug the one unhooked and hope the one who unhooked is in your terror radius.

    This perk can be godly on the Nurse. I am curious how it is going to turn out.

    They better not think of nerfing new DS when they literally just added in a slugging perk to counter it

    Yeah but taking Distressing and IF will make you lose out on other slugging perks that are eaqully powerfull.

    Also IF is just a notification and not aura while nurse is the worst killer in case of finding survivors if they know how to use stealth properly.

    Besides all that as survivor you can just stay out of Terror radious and you're fine. It's probably not gonna see too much play if any.

    It's just an anti-swf perk. Solo survivors shouldnt worry about it. But yeah, nurse will probably trigger even more disconnects now, so rip Nurse.

    It's good for slugging but also for defense, if someone with a flashlight is nearby waiting for the save then you know they're there and can get ready for them.

    Infectious Fright, Third Seal, Sloppy Butcher, and Distressing, maybe this will be a new build?

    I wonder if calm spirit will counter this.

    I really can't see this becoming meta. I wouldn't worry.

    As it is, many Nurses slug if they another Survivor trying to hide when they down somebody. This makes that strategy far more deadly. I definitely think it has potential to become a standard Nurse perk.

    Feels like a flashlight save counter to me. I wonder if Calm Spirit will affect Infectious Fright.

    Will M&A work with this perk? I’m thinking your terror radius is still extended the moment you down someone but I’m not sure.

    That perk sounds really good, 100% going to use it on Nurse, it's gonna be insane. Imagine snowball chaindowing the survivors within 20 seconds lmao

    I think it also replaces Franklins to a certain extend, flashlight saves with this perk is gonna be impossible
