My new protest to Spirit...
Play her? I just won't give you a chase. I'm going to stand there and let you down me. No running. No walking away. No trying. It's rather pointless anyways and it's unfun for me.
Sooooo.....I'm gonna make it unfun for Spirits. Sorry not sorry.
Frankly you guys don't want a chase anyways. So you want an easy win. So who knows maybe you're just getting what you want, without any of the unfun ######### for me.

This is an absolutely unnecessary comment on this forum. Only comment something that can possibly help the game, not make it worse. Get your baby ass outta here.

It is commenting something that can make the game better. It'll make them realize what a travesty of an unfun killer she is to go up against as survivor and hopefully change her soon.

Spirit is fine. People just need to learn how to counter her. I’ve played both survivor and killer and I’ve been against plenty of spirits. Even rank 1s (I’m a rank five) and I’ve escaped, sometimes through hatch, and others through the exits. Sure I’ve died but I’d still try to make it fun. Instead of just waiting around, try to actually go against one and see how it goes.

She is very fun to go up against for starters
You just need to actually play against her and not give up
7 -
So after your statement, if I play against a gen rushing team with DS, DH, Adrenaline, BT and Toolboxes, it's ok to go AFK in basement, because the match is pointless and unfun anyway ?
11 -
Sure. Having no information against a killer when they are using their power is SOOO fun. It's so balanced. Especially balanced when she has prayer beads.
As she is? She's 80/20 you are going to lose that chase, because there's literally no real mind game potential against her. And the only counterplay shouldn't be perks like Spine Chill and Iron Will. You shouldn't have to take up two perk slots just in anticipation of ONE killer.
You who only want Spirit left the way she is because she is nothing more than easy wins and chases and therefore easy wins at the match all together.
4 -
So you could either learn to play against spirit or you act like a little kid, look what you chose to do. Try hello kitty online?
9 -
Sure, because that is also unfun to go against, but much more hard to fix all together than say one killer who is problematic.
0 -
You forgot about Object of Obsession. Those survivors really want you to chase them. By OP's logic, we should just stand there and stare at them (as a protest)....lol
2 -
Lord I see the Spirit mains are thicc in this Chili's tonight. I've played for months against her. I routinely lose matches as survivor to her and only her.
She's a problem. You're just blind to it, because you all love how fun she is to play as a killer.
0 -
Actually, I play all the killers and equally as much survivor and, believe it or not, have outplayed spirits (shocking I know). But I guess it's easier to post about your little protest then learn how to play the game. That's fine. If we are on the same survivor team, we will somehow survive without you. If I go against you as killer, thanks for the easy kill.
2 -
Sure, i rarely play her at all because I don't like the sound she makes, but keep the strawmans coming.
Funny, you win against everything else and lose only to spirit, sounds not madeup at all.
2 -
Pathetic.
2 -
Spirit its at the same level as 360 and keys.
If you nerf Spirit, nerf 360 and keys too.
Survivors these days only complain because they dont know how to play against killers, sad.
2 -
Learn her counters and stop crying
11 -
You can't nerf 360s.
2 -
I love that half of ya'll literally half Spirit as avatar or in their name but I'm the one making ######### up. HI-LARIOUS.
0 -
It's almost like every other killer in the game has a non perk related counter and gameplay mechanic that can be one uped.....but Spirit.
I mean sure I'll loose to say a Good Ghostface, Billy, Freddy, Plague, etc.
But I have maybe survived on a total this month 3 Spirit matches. She's busted and there's nothing that's ''Git Gud" about this. Rather the developers didn't think through a powerset that literally has no downsides for her.
You got a headset and a general understanding of the basics of the game? You've won as Spirit.
0 -
You are losing to them because you REFUSE TO ADAPT
4 -
Mind posting one of your games as Spirit? And please no brown ranks.
1 -
I can agree, Spirit is not fun to face, but what you're suggesting is very unsportsmanlike.
You could post ideas for how to change the Spirit or what makes her so irritating to play against.
1 -
There are exactly 2 guys with spirit avatar and the name. 2 out of 9 guys who commented "literally half" .. Yea keep exaggerating and making things up..
4 -
Its a new kind of math, very complicated, you wouldnt get it...lol
2 -
Yes, for example like slowing down the speed of the camera movement.
0 -
Or you could just stand still to prevent it?

I have tried MANY times in MANY threads since I've started posting here fairly regularly. You can not speak to these people or get through to them. Spirit is their precious baby and she mustn't be touched. She's the only way they can win in red ranks. Nevermind you know plenty of people can actually be good in red ranks with so called far worse killers than her.
They protect the very idea of her, because they know deep down inside that she's too strong and needs some touch ups. It's the same as when Nurse was getting her rework and lol...she did and look how people overreacted to that.
It only harmed the people who weren't all that good with Nurse anyways.
0 -
Someone just doesn't grasp that there is a killer in the game where running circles around a pallet doesn't work on them.
2 -
I mean their game was already ruined once they loaded in and were facing up against a Spirit. There's a reason she's the killer with the highest amount of DCs lately. You don't even have to have toxic behavior as her to get a DC.
1 -
This is bullshit and you know it. You can still counterplay Nurse and she laughs in the general direction of looping and pallets.
1 -
So I'm a killer main and after talking to survivors in red ranks about why they dont like spirit a lot of people say the same thing they do about nurse.
Even if you can juke nurse and spirit and evade them momentarily, its almost impossible to fully escape them as you can other killers, and thats what makes them ufnun to go against.
Of course these are skilled nurses and spirits not brown - green.
0 -
No I don't frankly because it's not. You give me a good Nurse and a good Spirit and I'll choose to verse the Spirit Everytime.
2 -
Ok guys let's nerf every killer to legion level and give them the ability to repair gens and heal survivors. After all gens are done the killer can escort survivors to the exit gates giving them a pat on the head
4 -
Honestly with how bad some survivor teams are, I wouldn't mind helping them with a gen or two.
0 -
Don't be silly. I don't even want her nerfed to Legion level. No one deserved Legion level. Not even Legion. In fact they need a buff.
You can try to paint me as this silly survivor main who hates her because ''GAME HARD AND ALL KILLERS OVERPOWERED" but it simply isn't so.
I want her to not have bullshit add ons and more of a tell to her ability than ''IF YOU LOOK SUPER CLOSE HER GLASS GLOWS!" bullshit.
I don't even mind if she's still top 3 killer in the game after her rework...she just needs a slight rework like Nurse did.
1 -
I mean this can be said about any killer - except if the killer gives up because they realize they're about to waste 2-3 minutes getting looped around safe pallets
0 -
But you know that the survivor is supposed to loose the chase at some point?
I mean survivors shouldn't be able to run a killer for five gens. Every killer should be as challenging as spirit.
0 -
That's the difference though. Spirit and Nurse don't have to worry about that. At their base if you're even somewhat decent with them you're probably not even gonna have a 2 minute chase. Much less anything over or nearing a minute. You'd have to be rank 20 and new to the game to achieve a 3 minute chase using them without downing someone.
0 -
Just say that you want her to be able to be looped for five gens
0 -
Lol. That was far from a post saying ''DC GUYS IT'S FINE" but go off I guess?
0 -
And survivor mains wonder why killers call them babies.
1 -
God no. Every killer should be as challenging as a good Hillbilly. He's the perfect balance for a strong killer. He's challenging, he has counters, but he can also really really destroy you if he anticipates you trying to counter him too.
Hillbilly at his base? That's the perfect strong DbD killer.
I'd say Huntress too, but poor girl gets gutted by like 80 percent of the maps these days.
2 -
I agree to an extent. I don't play survivor nearly at the level I do killer but I can consistently get to to red ranks. When I do go against spirit I find it very hard to get her off of you.
Of course other killers would be wasting time if they stick on you and the other survivors get gens done. However with Spirit and Nurse in particular, I believe its the fact that they have such powerful mobility that allows them to stick on survivors a lot longer than another killer would because they know they have the safety of speed and mobility to get across the map when they need.
0 -
Sooooo.....I'm gonna make it unfun for Spirits.
The killer most likely doesn't give a damn, you're just making it unfun for your teammates.
5 -
Congratulations!
You have joined the problem.
Why try to be better if you can just cry about it?
And not only that, every time someone gives a different opinion you say they are clearly biased and wrong
In my own experience, which I have written down, (meaning, it's not just my opinion, it's the observable truth) spirit got 2.66 kills per match on average.
Staying behind michael, pig, huntress, wraith, freddy and leatherface.
And tying with nurse
Well...guess they are all op, better nerf them all.
But hey, no need to trust me. This is from behaviour
Better nerf hag I guess
5 -
🙄 Bud, seriously? It's not about the inability to loop her, none of this has remotely been me saying ''She's got to be so weak that she should cry as soon as she loads into the match!"
But I really don't expect you of all users to get that. You more than anyone spend time defending her in every single post that comes up about how she needs a rework. Which there are countless threads.....daily.
The pattern does not lie.

The only reason people are complaining about Spirit is because she is slightly more powerful than she justifiably should be.
Most folks only have two complaints about the Spirit: Prayer Beads and phase collision.
People dislike Prayer Beads because they have the same problems as old Stab Wounds Study and old Frank's Mixtape. The add-on is just too powerful to be a Very Rare. Make the ability to completely remove almost all warning of your approach a rare event and survivors will naturally complain about it next.
Phase collision just shouldn't exist. You see, when a Spirit phases and chases me in invisible mode I get frustrated but I can handle that. That's literally just her power. It's when she just desperately sways side to side until colliding with a survivor that upsets many people, including myself. When you actually aim the haunting it's a mind game so we can respect it. When people just use the extra movement speed and collision as a crutch for bad game sense, that's where all the hate comes from.
TL:DR
Make Prayer Beads Ultra Rare, removing all warning of your approach should be expensive, (See Coxcombed Clapper).
Remove phase collision so that players actually have to know what they're doing to encourage skill based gameplay.

So all these people telling you that she has counters and she doesn't need a nerf, are wrong and you are right?

Is there any popcorn lying around? 🥗

If anyone is advocating that someone should DC it almost sounds like you say I should just DC as soon as I load in against Spirit. At least this way. The Spirit player? Gets some points.
This is not the same as DCing. People giving up on hooks is not the same as DCing. That's a reach. It's just them getting to a hopefully more fun match for them. Nothing more nothing less.
DCing is a problem that needs to be fixed. You shouldn't be able to DC because ''Welp ruin broke instantly, ugh, they're blending. Ugh, the killer is Spirit, ugh, I got downed first, etc, etc."
And considering the amount of times a 3 man survivor team can still pull off enough to at least pip up in a match or get decent amount of points. Me potentially just not giving a damn in a match against 1 out of the many killerst his game offers isn't really that big of a deal.
