considering its not hard to hit your purge, and if her purge is corrupted she'll take u down a health state I'd say its fair
corrected a typo

Yeah I don’t understand why that’s a thing? If you’re injured and infected, the fountain should only cure the infection and then you should have to heal normally. It doesn’t make sense for the fountain to heal both.

I dunno. This new killer might end up weak.

Can surviviors use a fountain without being sick?
0 -
First impression I agree. Doesn't feel like it should heal as well. We'll see though, still early.
2 -
Her mori is way too long too. I wish the devs would consider how much time is wasted during a mori animation when creating them. The length of the Pig’s should be the standard.
1 -
Oh.
Is it on Clown level? Cause that ######### raised the max to like 15 seconds.

It is a good thing that the fountain heals survivors because using the survivor also give The Plagie her corruption power. And you have to remember that the fountain is not usable until the killer basically cleans it.
So having the fountain heal survivors as well, balance the killer power. Corruption gives an easy hit.
1 -
With her power she has range attack that can injure and down multiple survivors though. We weren't very careful and a plague got 3 downs with her corrupted power. At first I thought insta heals were not fair but they might actually be fair in the end.
I say lets wait and get used to her a little bit. She seems to be a snowball killer.
4 -
the heal is to op. 10 sec insta-heal and you are ever sick against this killer.
0 -
I'm watching True, he is still trying to figure out how to properly play her.
1 -
I think it's fair. Getting her sickness would be also free hit if it didn't heal them back up.
0 -
It’s actually around 6 secs to heal.
0 -
If you don't let them get away there's not much point to making them sick in the first place.
2 -
But you realize if you make all survivors use all the wells, they cannot heal themselves since they are all corrupted, so you can go around and just make everybody "broken" with puke and they cannot purge it or heal thru it, pair that with the new thana buff and they are in for a rough ride.
1 -
If all the wells are corrupt at once they ALL become clean again.
2 -
I usually like him but damn he is complaining A LOT. He keeps trying to play them like any other killer. He is making them sick and not waiting for them to be broken so he needs 2 hits to get them. Kicking generators and and not always corrupting them same with not always with pallets when being looped.
1 -
Plan foiled that is pretty dumb
1 -
Making them sick makes them easier to track, does it not?
0 -
It's ridiculous honestly, How they thought this was balanced is beyond me. It destroys any momentum she gains.
2 -
Its to counter the fact if you don't use a fountain you are broken so it's a 2 for 1 it removes broken and heals you but at the cost of the killer having a damaging range attack so you have to debate rather not being healed is a better choice then a long range down at the last second
1 -
Yea, that's the whole point?
Lmao "I want my effortless kills to be instant thanks BHVR".
If you want to run mori's deal with the extra time you waste doing the animation, as opposed to the two extra hooks you'd have to go through, seems fair to me.
8 -
Anybody test out letting the survivors corrupt all the fountains so they can't heal up? Might be good strategy to ensure they are weakened before upping your power.
0 -
As stated above, corrupting all of them instantly purifies them all at once.
1 -
Sorry missed that one. Any addons that effect this or are we forced to keep a few clear to ensure the pressure?
0 -
Not sure, haven't seen them. But the time it'd take to manage getting everyone sick and every pool full seems like it's not worth the effort. She seems like a "slow the game down" type of killer, though the healing part of the fountain kinda hinders that.
0 -
I honestly think that the fountain heal time is way to short 6 seconds really? It needs to be 30 seconds considering i gives you a free health state
0 -
Nah shes super strong, the strat is puke and follow withing 2 feet until they go broken and then just m1, hiting puke is super easy and then you dont give them speedboost for getting 1 healthstate. Also fountain takes 6 seconds but gives killer damaging puke for a considerable time. which is ugly in the basement or with where you can hit 3 survs with one go while not losing much speed. but then again you have a legion icon so maybe Im argueing against the wrong person. FeelsBadMan.
1 -
No it would hinder her ability to keep pressure on survs just think it has jigsaw boxes
0 -
Wow People saying the killer is weak 3 and 1/2 hours after launch i guess that is progress.
0 -
The fountains hinder you more than help you. Instaheals remove any momentum the killer had. Gaining corrupt purge is not big enough of a trade off. Worst of all is when a survivor is unhooked, then heals themselves at a fountain 10-15 seconds afterwards while you're on the other side of the match. Now if I want to use corrupt purge I'll have to walk across the map to that fountain and odds are the first survivor I find once I have corrupt purge is the one I just hooked.
Thanks to the new emblem system and DS rework, I'll be punished for chasing that person again. It's silly.
2 -
It makes sense when you play the killer.
Once a survivor drinks from the fountain, the killer gets a visual cue and the aura of the fountain appears on the map (to let you know corrupt purge is available)
So the killer gets a notification of where that survivor is at the moment, it would be a bit unfair if they had to heal after that since they can't heal before due to the broken status.
2 -
So if I have legion avatar it means something? Yes no point in arguing with you.
0 -
If that’s the point then why aren’t they all the same length? That makes absolutely no sense.
0 -
From what I heard I think that this fountains should only partially heal the survivor. Instaheal is too much in my opinion.
1 -
It was your fault. You said it yourself.
2 -
It's a PTB guys. Chill out. It just released. I don't know how the devs of this game deal with this stuff sometimes.
Yeah it "seems" OP.. I agree, but I'm not crying about it.
Seems to me, they need to double the cleansing time in a fountain for the instant heal. 30 seconds? What?
0 -
Instead of puking why not just hit them. Waiting for a broken means wasting time.
1 -
Takes quite some time to get someone to broken.
1 -
No and yes
No, insta heals are not fair, they need to go I was wrong.
Yes, it was our fault, insta heals are not fair.
2 -
Ok after playing a few normal games against her...
It's extremely easy to get someone broken. Just keep puking and they keep running and they're injured. There's little you can do.
Don't even get me started on the corrupted purge. It's like a 115% huntress with rapid fire. That's hard as hell to avoid.
I can see now why it gives you the instaheal and the extrenely fast time. Because in return she gets the strongest damn power in the game. Not to mention that her regular power is a bit like Legion, you can't really avoid the first hit.
People on here begged for legion to be buffed and look what we ended up testing on the last ptb. Player suggested buffs that were broken beyond belief.
2 -
Seems like that is the strat yeah.
Puke on them until they get the broken effect, then tunnel them down for the M1 hit, this way you dont let them get to the insta heal fountain. Great design.....
The plagues power could have been designed so well, in order to slow down the game you could puke survivors, give them a hit and they would have to cleanse+heal, but sadly BHVR didnt go this way. Instead we are stuck with a killer where we ar e forced to focus down on one survivor again and hope that the others doesnt genrush too crazy
4 -
killers have been consistently undertuned on the PTB so i don't blame them
all of the PTB killers so far have required buffs
0 -
Only viable strategy
Find survivor, vomit on them until broken, standard attack, hook.
That's the only thing which seems to work fine. If Plague is forced to play like this they become cheap because its the only way to get results.
Any other way is a waste of time and it harms yourself as killer.
2 -
lol? You know its not instant and its not free, because if used you get to know the downside. But i think you like talking trash. Get your cookie.
1 -
tbh i don'T see it as a bad thing really, the fact i can puke of every survivor at once and hurt all 4 of them at once because someone healed and cured themselve for using the fountain is pretty fair to me :)
0 -
Fountains equals free power up. If the survivors use it too early, it makes the match hell on them. Get as many sick early, and they are forced to try to work through it, or make you a living nightmare.
Seriously, does anybody understand the strategy here?
0 -
Even true said insta heals are op and killer is weak. Why should we listen to you guys?
0 -
@MegsAreEvil It's about 6 seconds to get a full heal.
Downside of healing is that it takes 2 hits or 2 streams of puke to down you.
Open your eyes MegHead
