The Plague's blood puke ability
I find The Plague's blood puke ability very annoying and here is why. It's like having a Huntress that can throw rapid fire hatchets that are thrown for like 5 seconds it's not fun to just have the killer get a free hit (most the time) it's just dumb and it shoots pretty dang far too. But I do have ideas to make "more balanced"
1: You could simply just shorten the range.
2: You can make it so you have to hit the survivor with a few hits before it counts as one hit, like 3 hits
3: Change the puke into a hair-ball like glob of bloody puke that will hit hard.
Those are my thoughts on the matter, And yes I do know that you can just go behind a wall but this has just annoyed me so much as I've been playing trough out the new DLC. Just tell me your thoughts in a respectable manner please.

Idk about that. I think The Plague is in a very good place right now. You get a notification when she gets her corrupted purge, so you're prepared for when she is coming. It's counterable a lot of tiles (jungle gyms, t/l walls, etc.) and she is slower while holding it. Not saying it's easy to counter, but not impossible either.

@ThirdSealOPplzNerf what do you mean "no" explain you reasoning I'd like to hear you thoughts

@Acesthetii I did not know about the game telling you that she is ready to use it ( I guess that's the weird noise that I hear when I play against her ) but I fell like it's just a bit too hard to dodge and that It just needs a small nerf. Other then that I do agree with you.

It's up to survivors really how often she gets her blood puking ability. If they play it smart, she will not have it as much which results in her losing map pressure and yeah, only being able to make survivors sick. But I find it not as hard to avoid the puke when in a loop. Just crouch behind the wall you'd usually loop.

Well, when she grabs the corrupted purge, you have a few options. You can either stay on a gen or move away depending if you think she's headed your way. If you move away for a bit, you'll probably notice she has hit a survivor and you can get back a gen. If you chose to stay on a gen, make sure you're near a tile that'll keep her busy awhile. Trees on Macmillan is good line of sight, The Game and Lerys have a bunch of corners. Farms maps are pretty favorable to survivors as is... and yeah of course try to move around if you're caught in the open. I guess these are just more reasons why I think she's fine and some tips I guess.

> 1: You could simply just shorten the range.
And turn her into a M1 killer.
> 2: You can make it so you have to hit the survivor with a few hits before it counts as one hit, like 3 hits
People will still scream bloody murder.
> 3: Change the puke into a hair-ball like glob of bloody puke that will hit hard.
And turn her into a discount huntress.
All you have to do to counter it is to not cleanse.

She just spams and has no sort of delay for how much she can vomit on people. And at least for me, countering it is literally impossible to dodge but that might be because im on console and frames are bad as it is.

"Just tell me your thoughts in a respectable manner please."
Plain and simple: NO.
I hate how most survivor mains call anything "free" or "uncounterable/impossible to avoid".
This is NOT a "free hit". The killer has to puke someone, wait for him to get broken, lose him, let him take the "free" heal from the fountain, spent time collecting the blood puke ability from that fountain (waste time to gain time) and find someone in time to use and hit him with a shortrange attack that you can softcounter by looping or playing stealthy, because the killer has a huge visual sign about the ability being active.
And after ALL THAT, you come here and think this is a FREE hit and to powerful, because it counts as a single hit?
Are you serious?

it's worse than huntress and she's already a low tier killer, give it up

But in return survivors get extremely fast heals at the fountains.
She's strong but then survivors aren't slowed down by healing and get to genrush faster.
It's pretty balanced what they've done. It makes for a faster paced game. Killers get a strong power which they want, survivors aren't spending half of the game healing which they want.
She's like the opposite of Legion in that regard.

Oh look, it is the same guy, that calls Freddy "OP".
What a surprise, everyone! What a surprise!

Or take more than 3 days to learn how to counter a killer.

I don’t believe she needs any more nerfs. She’s fine atm plenty of counters, also if you hear the noise out in the open is not where you want to be. Good luck in the fog!

Can we please stop trying to nerf every killer, perk, and addon. Just play the game or don't.

Even if she is chasing you, in order to get her power, she has to face the fountain and it gives you enough time to lose the killer since she breaks line of sight.
There is a reason why there is a loud noise notification when she takes the corrupted purge. When you hear it, you don't want to be found and if you do get found, you are gonna get downed.

Basically this: When you hear that she has Corrupt Purge, dont get seen. You can still loop her, but it is not that easy as looping a Huntress, so simply try to avoid her.
And, for the sake of your Team Mates: When only one Fountain is left, dont cleanse yourself while another person is being chased. This gives her Corrupt Purge and your Team Mate will probably not be happy about this.
Plague is fine as she is. She was even before the Movement Speed Nerf.
