don't get it!
it seems a lot of people think nurse is hard to go against. i feel she is one of the most easiest and most of my exit wins is with her. i find her real hard to play as. is she being nerfed or buffed?

Reworked, sorta
They made her power on cooldown and reworked her add-ons, also some QoL
She is the same though, just no OMEGA blink bs

God-tier Nurse Players will probably still mop the floor with survivors as they always do.
This rework/nerf/change just made Nurse much much more punishing for mid to low tier Nurse players. Because a couple of seconds in a chase can cost you as a Nurse.

If they were true they would have just reworked her addons.

is that more of a buff then?

Its really an opinion statement, some people think it was a nerf, some think it is a buff
I find it to be a burf

Nurse is currently the best Killer in the game. The reason you dont have a problem against her is simple: You play vs bad Nurses.
Here is an example how a game looks like if the nurse is actually good:

does that mean suvivors think she's buffed and killers think nerfed?
i hope it's made easier to play as nurse, cos when she's fatigued i mostly loose sight of survivors.

Its hard to explain

She's getting outright nerfed. You won't have nearly the same map or chase pressure and you become an m1 killer inbetween blinks.

It's only a couple of seconds, this change won't affect you much if you actually have been using her for a while. It will however make it extra challenging for people who aren't used to playing her. Which is how it should be. She is a "Hard" difficulty killer.

Play her while you can. Today is the update and nurse officially dies

You act like she's being nerfed to the ground.
She's not, she is still very much viable. Like Spirit and Billy.

I fail to see the QoL changes.

Her map pressure is gone. How's she still viable?

Do you just play Nurse blinking around the map without any reason to? Okay, let me explain to you how I used to play Nurse when I mained her a while ago.
I would save my blink until after I found survivors, keep them unaware that the killer they are facing is the Nurse. When I spot one, I immediately blink towards them, hit them and start the chase. Then I blink once more, down them, and reveal everyone else with BBQ and Chili.
That's basically how most of my Nurse games went when I mained her a while before I started maining Freddy.
I'm not saying it's the optimally viable way to play her, but it was effective enough that I got 4ks almost constantly. If I were to play her with the changes, nothing would change, as my strategies stay the same and will most likely work since Nurse still breaks most of the game's chase mechanics.

Omega blink got nerfed and her base power got changed so survivors gain 0.5 meters more than before during fatigue basically. Hardly enough to turn her from the strongest killer to trash, she is still probably the strongest killer or at least still in the big 3. The biggest change was to her add-ons.
They made her flannel common now to help players learn her, so that's nice.

think everybody needs a few go's with nurse then see if you say she hasn't been nurfed to the ground. she is mega hard to use. she's too slow to walk and then after you blink to catch up with survivor, you can not see where anybody goes as she looks at the floor. they totaly vanish!

That's the point of her power. She's supposed to be a high risk/high reward killer. So you have to really know how to play her to use her optimally.
If you make a mistake all game, experienced survivors will capitalize on that mistake and make your life a living hell as a Nurse.

well i still don't get it! like i've said i average 4-5 and most the time i can beat nurses. she's near bottom tier for me.

You've most likely gotten potato Nurses.
If a killer doesn't know how to play her, then she becomes one of the easiest killers to escape from. Because if a player has absolutely no clue as to what they are doing when playing Nurse, they are basically giving the Survivors a free escape.

couple of potatoes i admit, i do get a lot of good ones!
