a waste of a perk slot that's what, you'll get tunneled to death before you manage 3 protection hits on a normal match. Like i thought this rework was alright and till i tried it for a few matches to see if i could get something to work and yeah i can see why nobody uses it. holy yikes. just rework completely it at this point

    In my opinion, its actually a great perk, just extremely difficult to use, the equivalent of playing rework nurse without add-ons

    idk man, it puts you at such a high risk for a little reward

  • Don't you know it's sexist to use the word "man"? It should be "Mettle of Woman"

    It’s high risk high reward, sort of like playing certain killers or using certain perks

    Nothing killer has amounts to the work needed for it other than things like Devour Hope which can be turned off btw. :/ idk

    MoM angers is a waste of BP to clear it from your blood web. It was too powerful before, and absolutely useless now. I've seen people avoid the objective and get killed just to get it to work. Takes a ton of luck and effort. Easier to just load up a steptic and use it.

    I think MoM should have the same trigger with safe unhooks, too.

    it's an absolute joke until they fix protection hits. I tried it several times even sprint bursting in to body block and take a hit for another survivor and don't even get a stack....unhook and take a hit, lucky if you get a stack... I have tried several times pretty much committing suicide and never once got the 3 protection hits required until I just gave up on it all together....I thought there was no way they completely murdered it but it was worse than I thought. It's completely broken, lol. Might as well bring a perk that makes you immune to flooding or volcanic eruptions, lol

    Might be good with the new sabo. Wait till the killer commits to a hook —> drop hook —> take a hit (should count as protection) —> get away when your buddy wiggles free.

    They changed it without fixing protection hits first.

    You know kinda like you can get penalized if the game kicks you out during a match, because they haven’t bother to optimize it first.

    Its an joke, just not very funny at the beginning or the end

    yeah, i had 2 one game, stood in front of 2 different people to get the stack and it didn't count as a protection hit. like what???

    I’ve actually had it proc, solo, in several games and escaped in them (although I admit, one of the times was because this hag said she had the upmost respect for me managing to activate it). Bring a medkit with a styptic and inner strength. Find and cleanse a totem, wait for a teammate to go down. From there, take a hit. Use the styptic, take another hit, run off to mend & then hide in the locker to heal. Next time someone goes down, take another hit, and your MOM is active!

    I've used it specifically on body-block Breakout builds, usually with MoM, Breakout, WGLF, Self-Care and a decent Medkit so you can be healthy when anyone else goes down. This is, unquestionably, not the most useful thing you can be doing to help your team win the game, but it can be fun and the extra MoM hit later in the game is just the icing on top.

    MoM has always been dumb too me, even when it was broken. It's sole existence was just too sell Ashe too more people. Even if you didn't know/like evil dead, you were more inclined too buy him for his broken ass perk. The devs made it broken too sell copies, it was a literal scam IMO.

    Now it's a perk that doesn't work because the devs haven't fixed protection hits yet.

    Its a Cashgrab which got nerfed into the ground to somewhat balance the strong effect it can have.

    Easy as that.

    Complete rework would be nice, but since they are not doing strong Survivor Perks since years, I would not expect too much.

    I have had a great time lately using this perk in my bodyguard build. Selfcare, botany knowledge, Mettls of Man, and Breakout. Basically you try to take hits when someone injured is chased, thdn heal and do it again. When it's active, its very easy to save a survivor when he's carried. Taking 2 hits thank to MoM and breakout do thier job. It's really fun.
