Slightly reduced The Plague movement Speed while fully charged and holding Vile Purge and Corrupt Pu

but she's easily looped, hence why everyone who was doing good with her an example being tru3 were using the tactic of leaving survivors if they got to loops so they would create a corrupt fountain.
If you play her like a normal killer then she's #########. Might as well just stick to someone who isn't crippled by pallets.

Oh, you're right, you cant hit twice with the corrupted one, but I never specified which I meant. I'd seen the green spam.
But what I did also notice is it takes less than 2s to even charge the attack. And were still mad about reduced ms?? How biased are you all that you need the extra Ms on an attack that is almost instant charge and can ignore windows/pallets like hatchets can.
Like, you can charge and release it in an instant, but because you cant fully one down someone, or chase them at FULL SPEED while waiting to unload it, wanna argue and debate about how the killers not viable now??
I'm out. This is an echo chamber of bias.
Removing slight ms while holding a charged power is a good thing. For both sides. Period.
Bye killers <3

Almost like every other thread on this forum, yet I see the same people, like you and crusader especially, on them arguing things that arent comparable.
The fact that she has to refill, be immobile, and hit a target more than once is very comparable to huntress. So like I said in my last post to you two, your bias is showing.
Enjoy your echo chamber.

I play on PS4 so I never got a chance to play her on PTB, but all I can say is that after playing her is that she is in a great spot. She is probably one of the more balanced characters in the game honestly. So if she was nerfed a little prior to going live then that was probably a good decision. Cause I love where she is at now.

Here are ALL of the changes to Plague:
-Corrupt Purge base duration is now 60 seconds instead of 45 seconds.
-Increased The Plague Brutality and Deviousness scoring.
-Increased the duration of infection of environmental objects to 35 seconds instead of 20 seconds.
-Slightly increased The Plague movement speed while charging Vile Purge and Corrupt Purge.
-Slightly reduced The Plague movement Speed while fully charged and holding Vile Purge and Corrupt Purge.
-Survivor infection no longer resets once The Survivor is hooked.
-Vile Purge can now correctly infect gate switches.
-When all Pools of Devotion have been corrupted, all corrupted Pools of Devotion reset and The Killer automatically gains the Corrupt Purge effect.
So overall she got buffed, only her movement speed while holding here power was nerfed.

Maybe just wait and see how she plays with the changes rather then instantly move her to garbage tier?

It is not "only", she would be a lot better without these changes. I would take that normal movement speed over these "buffs" all the time.
Yeah, let's make Nurse 1 blink, but 5% faster. What? She would not be #########, people need to test something to actually know it would be #########, they don't have their own brains, nor EXPERIENCE COMING FROM PLAYING SAID KILLER BEFORE THE NERF.

It's a classic, really.
-Killers complain about something (in this case, the Plague's power being near useless) ---> the devs insult them and/or tell them to "just adapt" ("You don't know how to play them!!!!!!11!!!") ---> killers adapt (in this case by using the Plague's movement speed while holding her power at their advantage) ---> the devs nerf them because they were able to adapt (they reduced the new killer's movement speed while holding the puke).

Meanwhile survivors are going to get new Decisive Strike, because game must be fun and relaxing for them.

The reason is that it was possible to stack add-ons that make you move fast asf. I don't remember if you needed Corrupted Purge or just the base Vile Purge to do it though.

So? She was addon dependant to do nicely, and now she is even more addon dependant.
Instead of nerfing addons, if something wasn't good for them, they literally shrekt her.
5 -
Don't forget, she's still new and just as many people don't know how to counter her as play her. She is plenty loopable, so you'll see survivors adapting a lot to that.
To be honest, thats the only reason why anyone is disapointed with this change, there are too many busted loops in the game that she is going to struggle with, much like most killers. That said using even the common addon that speeds up her movement while holding charge, it feels like its enough to remove the penalty completely, so it can be compensated for at least. Its also a fairly minor slowdown, so its not devestating to patrol while holding the charge if you know someone is in the area. Its likely the devs were considering that more than her performance in loops, but oh well.

If it was for me I would even revert the "buffs" and one nerf she received. They are meaningless, anyway, nerfing this one aspect of her totally made her useless.
Looping destroys her, stealth destroys her, genrush too. Spreading the disease does nothing, because there are no downsides to being sick, therefore survivors rarely use fountains.

To be fair, the 10/10 4K threads aren't better. Both is a neverending loop in this forum without any sense.

The good old "Killers adapted" Meme.
Nice.

Acromio is right, though. They nerfed her without a reason covering it with useless "buffs".
5 -
She just needs the heal removed from fountains and she'd be fine. Currently though with her nerf, underwhelming.

Or just revert the nerf, bring back her only viable tactic.
This, or remove the 2 slowdowns while charging and after releasing the vomit.

Give this man an Amen !
Just copy/pasting it for this page.
It such well said i really don't want peoples to miss it from the previous page !

I'd rather have the fountain change than reverting her speed while holding. Fountain change promotes a spread pressure game play which is more fun for both the survivor and killer. The old way is literally just tunneling into each survivor which isn't as fun for either party, nor is it more skill based.
Regardless, I'll take any buff changes. She's currently weak.
0 -
Wonder if they plan to do something about her, though, would appreciate any buffs to her too, especially reverting the recent nerf, changing those fountains or even fixing the broken hitboxes of puke.
