Me and my swf currently have a dedicated totem cleanser so noed isn’t a problem.

So far, killers have been getting curbstomped, just as we all have predicted.
2 -
Cleanse or not, it always has value. if you cleansed all 5 totems and saw that it could activate, you will continue to cleanse and buy killers time. Breaking 1 totem take longer than 1 heal. Thats 5 heals. 5 heals are as long as 1 gen.

I take it back. Just seen how powerful the perk can be.
Trapper with Ruin and Infectious.
Chases someone off a gen, I’ve been doing totems because NOED so I switch to his gen since its regressing. Killer downs him, infectious goes off and he comes to chase me off the gen. hes already injured another survivor. I’m trying to keep resources on as few gens as possible since they’re all regressing. Cant afford to spread out, dont want to let gens with lots of progress regress to nothing.
If you can keep up the pressure its really strong

Happy No Ruin Day!
Tonight, I think I'm gonna walk around the maps as Clown throwing bottles into the trees. The gas clouds look soooo cool doing that. Hopefully survivors don't do gens so fast I can't get any good screencraps... getting the positioning just right can take time. But whatever, I just want to make sure I don't get in the way of survivors gen rushing, because I'd feel bad if I ruined their fun. :(

It's a bit funny how there's fireworks in the menu (lunar year),but I just think to myself that it's probably the survivor mains celebrating that there's no more ruin

I like all you cry babies because it was a crutch and you can't play without it. Adapt and overcome. Don't cry

But that's been everyday before today though.

Basically you're right. But that's exactly what I do, no matter how bad the survivors are, I always let escape 2 people to not rank up lol... I'm fine at rank 17 if matchmaking don't match me with red ranks all day

I already mentioned it in another topic... There's a very simple solution for all this Buff/Nerf discussions... REMOVE all perks from Killers/Survivors, and then let's see what happens, because I am pretty sure, then survivor will get mad without BT, DS, or all his bullshit they can take into the Match, because most of Perks of Killers just feel useless.... Totems which do spawn 1 meter off a Gen is pointless.... It requires no skill as survivor to rank up, as Killer it's a real struggle to get at least 1 pip-up... Why I do say that? Because I ONLY played killer main until the matchmaking matched me only with red ranks being a rank 16 Killer, then I switched to survivor, leveled some of them to unlock all the op perks, and actually I am a rank 10 survivor playing as unexpirienced Noob survivor, thx to all these bullshit perks they got. Thx BHVR

I like Ruin Nerf Day. It made queue times for me as a Killer to be 10 seconds max. I actually have the luxury of cherry picking my matches a bit, so I don't feel bad dodging that sweaty ass SWF looking squad with 2 toolboxes, a flashlight, and a medkit all dressed up in their neon glowing best, except that Blendette.
Literally made it SO much easier to play Killer, because I didn't have to wait for matches! Thank you BHVR!

I still use Ruin... but I pair it with Huntress Lullaby...

This happened to me A LOT even before the changes to Ruin... I can be just as dirty when I play as a survivor. Bring it on! lol

How tf is DS worse now? Lol they removed the counterplay in dropping as you're always guaranteed the skill check. The only counterplay is slugging.
1 -
LOL!!!!!!

It’s factually easier to rank up as killer between ranks 16-10 than it is as survivor. Most killers will 2 pip in those games, whereas survivor all depends on killer ability.
Its normally red ranks where things start to change because survivors get solid teammates and killers get solid opponents....however I think the new rank reset is changing that.
I understand your frustrations but as you get more experienced with the game you may see things in a different light.

Clicky we have been down this road before and what your saying is factually wrong.
The reach rank 10 survivor achievement is twice as common then the killer reach rank 10 killer.

You know that when you say that kind of things most people dont believe you, assumes you are a "survivor main" or that you play in rank 20?
0 -
Yeah you probably are the kind of player that asks for nerfs left and right and tells the players that used the nerfed perks or killers to git gud and adapt :/

And yet rank 1 killers used to have to wait ages because they ranked up faster than survivors, event though at the time they were all saying “sUrvIvoR iZ 2 ez to RaNk up”.
Killer mains often have a bias that stops them from seeing the big picture.
As killer you can 2p almost every game at low ranks because its so easy. As survivor its harder to 2 pip because that depends on new killers being able to get hooks, pressure the map, not camp etc
Things can turn around at red ranks but at low ranks from 10-16 as he mentioned it is far easier to rank up as killer
0 -
Oh it is

You don't 2-pip as often, but you almost never de-pip or even black-pip. Killers easily rank up to 12 and then start to get a little more challenging. Survivors take a little while to rank up to 12 because a win most of the time is 1-pip but after that the difference between pip requirements for Survivor and Killer gets really big. In the Red ranks with the highest requirements to pip up Killers need 14/15 to pip and 16 to 2 pip (haven't played in a while so my memory isn't that fresh) which translates to nothing less than gold and at least one iridescent emblem, as for Survivors you can get one silver (Die in a Trial after some amount of minutes, I guess is 7 minutes) and still pip up.

Decisive strike is still a amazing perk, ruin isn't

This is what I don't get about u survivor mains, y'all always say ruin is a crutch perk. Have y'all thought that maybe there's a reason killers needed it, that maybe most matches were one sided without it. Y'all can disagree all y'all want but there's a reason survivor queue times take a long time and killers are instant. Ruin was definitely needed.

This is what happens when you have a dev team that's too obsessed with statistics. They can only see balance in black and white, when balance is not black and white. Although, in this situation, they evidently see balance in what is fun, which is both a good thing and, clearly, a bad. You cannot nerf something that 80% of killers use at red ranks and not even question the reason as to why, and when you explain your reasoning, there is very little understanding that people have complained about.
Killers probably hated Ruin and having to run it at red ranks more than anyone - they wanted a solution to something and instead had a situation made worse. Do you have any idea how frustrating it must be that almost every killer that plays this game will, in some shape or form. tell you that this is a terrible changed? And if they don't they will tell you it is a terrible change IF they do not follow it up with other changes, none of which have been acknowledged? I guess you can't understand if you don't play a red rank killer.

My Wraith games have been nice too

I never used it anyway.

Yes BT and DS are bandaids for camping and tunneling...killer queues would skyrocket w/o them...

Not everybody plays both sides.

Exactly! I’m saving that! Can’t wait to see what killers have to say about that.
“But you can’t do them too fast!!”

Do them as fast as you want.

"Gen rush" as in "survs are rushing gens" kinda exists, but that's literally just when a 4 man toolbox squad with BNP loads in.
"Gen rush" as in "gens are too damn quick" totally exists.
2 -
Hahaha the most probably.
0 -
Yeah thats what I was saying, that with the current ranking killers boost out of low ranks, while survivors move slowly.
0 -
Simply cz you are rank 16. When you hit high purple rank or even red you will see why ruin is needed.
0 -
I guess it's a way to say: never play killer again!
Matchmaking is on point. Me Rank 9 Killer against survivor rank 1-4... they are gen rushing (i guess it's really rushing) while u haven't found 1 survivor. It's like 80 seconds for a gen (2 survivor 40 sec) and u should find one (1 gen) chase (1-2 gens) and hook.. then go and find one.. oops game over.......
Nice ruin rework.

This person clearly has never seen a 4 toolbox death squad as they probably have never played killer long enough to see one.
Also remember it was possible in the past(when the term was made) To have ALL 5 generators done in under 60 seconds(Band New Parts have been nerfed MULTIPLE times because of it) no matter what the killer did so to say they don't/never existed is ignorant.
0 -
it was just a joke meme and i do recall myself saying take out toolboxes and leave only for sabotaging so some people cant then complain
0 -
Its really hard to tell on these forums as some people legit believe gen rushes don't/never existed despite there being constant proof to the contrary.
