Why is Nurse such a rare killer to go against now?

Their no perk games had coms, Zubat never went against them, I pipped against them, and I don't think even Umbra played the game back then. What are you talking about

They played against Umbra multiple times on the meta-perk coms experiment.

Didnt the nerfs already include "appears ~0.3 seconds earlier" ?

Because I play on the PS4 but would try her on the PC. Joysticks aren't my thing but I'm saving up money for a car over building a new PC.

Well my fun when playing Nurse comes from teleporting and never being an m1 killer. That's what was fun about her, you used your power for everything or you were going to fail. Having it turned off, even if sometimes effective, is not the reason I was playing her.

I don't want a buff, I just want the dumb hat on hat cooldown removed or changed into something that actually rewards playing differently instead of forcing you to play specific ways.

I think the biggest take away is you don't even need perks on the survivor side, just SWF, and you still stand a good chance if not dominating chance against most killers who have FULL loadouts. In what world is the power role a power role if the weak side can go perkless/addonless and still be a challenge for you? It makes sense for a killer to be able to go addonless/perkless like old Nurse because it took a lot of skill to play and you were the power role, and survivors could still escape if they played good.

I mean it is though? Range was pretty much the only thin Omega blink gave you. I believe it made you appear faster? But that seems to be directly related to the distance you traveled and the time it takes for that animation to finish regardless of the distance so... Yeah range was the absolute main benefit of it. We still have the range addons but now they actually come with a downside of charge time (still affects muscle memory and that was something they wanted to get rid of btw)

I'd also argue you aren't 100% in control anymore because of the numerous bugs she has and map bugs with deadzones, and also dedicated servers.

"Potentially each Killer is a S-Rank Killer"

"Potentially DbD has 0 Bugs"

"Potentially we will get next Dlcs for free"

You get my Point? If you talk about Potentials, every Killer is a S-Rank Killer, or the totally opposite of S-Rank because Potentially each Survivor do outplay you, or not.

*Living in a Nutshell*

Range AddOns indirectly influenced charge time as well. By raising the distance for a maximal charged blink, you technical shorten the time for shorter range blinks. Giving survivor less time to react and judge a nurse charge. I can tell for experience. An Omega Blink Nurse was much harder to outplay than basic nurse, not because of the distance, but because of those shortened charge time for close blinks. The new Charge time debuff is probably meant to fix that issue and tries to keep it consistent, so that you only have to charge longer for that extra range as well.

I thought bamboozle was a good chase perk to until some youtuber did an explanation on why it's bad (ToFu I think?)

Basically when you use it you force them to run away from that loop potentially sending them to a stronger loop in the process. When I did use it, it only ever helped me a handful of times because they would know it was active and just run away from it thus rendering it nigh useless (unless they run to an empty spot but that's too rare to rely on)

When it did work however, boy was it ######### wonderful to see them try and vault the window and just sit there sad and confused >:)

I suppose walking Nurse would be better on something like Leyr's though. I didn't have too much trouble on that map on old Nurse for the most part, but it certainly wasn't the easiest map.

Gotta love when their rebuttal is "someone can always 4k so it's fine"

Like what an astounding argument, you shut down all of my points so eloquently it's astonishing you aren't a team remember yet.

I'm surprised the new player avenue of arguments hasn't triggered the devs into fixing her. We all know that's the focus right now. Maybe if we say new survivors want to try and and now have no fun? I'm out of ideas on what to do to get the devs to care about her.

Wait for it... here comes the “well a god nurse always gets 4ks” statement... she needs to be fixed somehow. She has one of the lowest pick rates, lowest kill rates, and highest frustration coefficients in the game.

Yep, which still is a minor nerf.

Yep. Worst map for her. Almost guaranteed loss against any decent survivors

Because she requires skill to perform at least decently with her

She basically is impossible on any platform aside from PC & even then she requires so much effort to the point where she’s not fun to play.
