NOED Is Bad Game Design
No One Escapes Death is bad game design, hear me out and make sure to read all the way to the end before commenting. No One Escapes Death is one of the most stupidly designed perks to exist it rivals current Rancor and old Dying Light. Except NOED is actually powerful which makes it stupid. The apparent counter to NOED is to do the totems and many call it your 2nd objective, however this cannot be true as it is not given as a clear objective and cleansing 5 totems for one perk is quite stupid game design. This perk punishes new players and Solos more than anything and doesn't effect SWF which furthers its bad game design. Also the killer is obviously failing and there should be some other requirement for the killer to get their NOED if you got this far congratulations this is bait. The perk also requires no skill. So here are the changes that I would recommend for the perk. You should have to hook every survivor open the exit gate and let 2 escape to activate NOED. This really seems like a fair change to me as the remaining ones will be able to be one shotted. This has been my unbiased opinion on NOED

Counterplay
Noed: Do Bones
Rancor: Sacrifice Obsession
Dying Light: Don't get hooked
In my opinion Noed is easiest to counter

They could do a rework for Noed, For Example: Keeping the Haste Effect for killer and change the Exposed Status effect for survivors to a different one Like Blindness, Hindered, or the new Oblivious. Or give the Killer the Haste and Undetectable Effect

While we're at it nerf it to where you must have all 5 totems still up to activate it and it no longer insta downs survivors.
My unbiased nerf opinion

Hmm now that I think about it that seems fair.

"Let 2 escape to activate noed" yeah, no. If your gonna do that maybe get 2x/2.25x/2.5x BP aftermatch?
- You lose BP
- The others could escape ez just 360 and pallet the killer
"You should have to hook every survivor" NO
- Hard asf before noed would be Active.

Reread the post above

Looks legit but even with these changes, probably still too OP. Need a movement speed penalty or something for the killer due to no-skill-one-shots being so easy to accomplish.
Also should take up two perk slots.

People, you should learn how to read.

Read!

You'd think the fact that I put this in Off Topic would be a good clue as well.

Needs a tl;dr as, apparently, reading much is hard.

I'm surprised people fell for this.

I agree with this entire post.

Despite it clearly being stated that this is bait, I do think NOED could use a couple of tweaks so it doesn't encourage lazy play by my fellow killers. My biggest complaint is that NOED allows weak players to stagnate, essentially allowing the absence of the development of skill.

Well here's your TL:DR if you ever make a long thread put your important material in the beginning or end because people don't read the actual middle of the post for ######### apparently.

"Congratulations this is bait" this is bait. noed is just fine. I fully read it the first time.

What's nice is I do use noed but my skill is usually enough to shut down gameplay progression to the point where noed won't kick in.
But that's not to the effect that it won't, on occasion I have had it fire up but either I don't get a hit or I use my Hatchets which don't apply to the Exposed Status Effect trigger terms I don't think, either way it's just redundant most times. I could use Whispers when I get it because that perk saved me at least 30 minutes of searching altogether. I think NOED is useless to me, honestly, I would use BOP (Huntress) for the BP anyway

Good players don't tend to need NOED, and the most likely scenario for it actually going off is bad players - that said, I had a rather annoying game last night while I was trying to help a survivor friend rank up before reset. Turns out nobody but me did bones, apparently shrug
Plenty of good players do use it, including that Wraith, and I respect the hell out of people who use stuff like NOED and the like without stagnating. It's just a trend I see that many don't bother developing their midgame if they're confident in the endgame.

@ElusivePukka I use noed often as well… it usually goes off when i kick the hatch or i use (for some dumb reason) insidious troll nurse.

why is it as soon as I make a new thread my bait threads come back ):
0 -
as mentioned: I use noed, but I don't place reliance on NOED for a Merciless Victory, as my skill with Huntress allows me to shut down game progress. I'm throwing consideration to removing NOED from my Loadout and using BOP for the BP
