Which Killer has the hardest Adept achievement?
As title says, I wanted to know which killer people believe have the hardest Adept achievement. I personally believe it to be Plague as she clashes heavily with the Emblem system really netting Merciless Victories, but I wanted to hear what other people thought as well.

Probably Bubba. No map pressure, a difficult to land ability on a lot of maps, and if you do land it, it hurts your emblem scores. But plague is probably also a pretty hard one.

Any killer that gets royally screwed by the emblem system
Like, I legitimately don't get why Adept for killer isn't just scoring a 4k. It would make a hell of a lot more sense.

I only have 5, the ones where you have to massively deviate from the sensible way to play them are worse from what I hear though. Related: If anyone wants adept hag you should do it before the patch or you'll have to charge to the other end of the map and start slapping people around instead of setting traps

Plague because her power hurts her Chaser Emblem iirc. I had to go out of my way to avoid using my power with her for my adept at rank 6 iirc. I only got the adept achievement because a survivor was griefing the other players.
I had plenty of games where I 4k'd with her but what finally did it was a survivor body blocking people purposely and clicking at people on the hook. Feels bad to admit that but honestly Adept should be 4k's.
Pretty much what Gantes said.

Actually it will be easier to get an adept on setup killers after the update because gatekeeper got changed to not be as punishing on losing the first 2 gens early on

I'd forgotten about that. I might go for trapper in that case.

Plague, easily. An M1 killer with mediocre perks who's power hurts their emblems every chance it gets. Puke on a survivor to get them sick? The health they lose doesn't count for emblems and you can only hit them once, hurting your emblems. They decide to cleanse? They heal, hurting your emblems. You decide to use Corrupt Purge? Doesn't count for emblems if you injure them, HURTING YOUR EMBLEMS EVEN MORE. Seriously, I think the only way to get Plague's adept is to completely ignore her power. After a few days of trying it I decided to not use her power and what do you know? I got it first game.

Well I'm seeing a common theme here lol. I can definitely be sure everyone agrees the Emblem system is garbage. I don't pay attention to it much, so unless I'm doing Adept, I don't care about it at all. Thanks for your input!

Oni and Nurse were the hardest for me.. I didn't get the Nurse one before her nerf so .. yeah.
Oni's was miserable because his one shot punished your chase emblem, and then his perks were absolute trash.. especially the windows of opportunity one, so distracting. I had to get his by never using his power..

Only Nurse, Pig and Plague I don't have Adept.. And yea, Nurse and Plague is the hardest.

Have adepted all my killers.
Ones where the emblem system actively screws over killers for using their power.
Plague and Oni were the ones that took the most tries for me, because you need to M1 the survivors, if you use your power and you one shot them you wont get any good chaser value. they're also killers that have weak start up so protecting gens are gonna be tough too.

Depends on what Rank you're at. It's hard asf to get it at Red Ranks but easiest when you're in the mid-low tier range. I'm at Rank 1 right now and I am having the most difficulty getting it with Clown and Plague, especially Plague. Her own power at Red Ranks screws her over in the emblem system when Survivors cleanse.
Clown is Clown.

I'd say Old Myers. His perks (before their reworks) conflicted with each other and did not work together at all.

Corrupt Intervention and Infectious Fright are good perks.
And idk about you but I always 3k or 4k with Plague and get Ruthless or Merciless.

His was one of the easiest to get for me. I just did scratched mirror.

Honestly Killers whose powers fight the emblem system.
Because you have to remember getting the adept achievement is no longer about how good you do in the game for example getting a 4K. It's about if you tick the appropriate boxes on the checklist.
Plauge. Definitely being primary example

Hag above and beyond. Three hex perks, leaving you perkless usually within the first five minutes of a match. And, with a slower moving killer with much counterplay.

I have all the adept killers (except Deathslinger) and I didn’t have too much trouble with any of them. I got a majority of them before they changed the requirements to double pipping.
Plague and Billy are probably the hardest though. I have double pipped many of times with Plague but if you don’t get to use her corrupt purge then you won’t double pip. Basically you either have to use her powerless or hope the survivor cleanse. She is punished harshly by the emblem system if survivors choose not to cleanse.
Billy is also punished by the emblem system due to one shots with his chainsaw.

Since I play on console, I'd say all the killers that require good aim/very precise aim (Deathslinger, Huntress and Nurse).
So far I managed to get the adepts for Spirit, Legion and Plague because they are the characters I'm most interested in killer wise.
Also killers like Bubba, Clown and Legion I would imagine have a tough time to get their adepts because they get mauled already in the red ranks.

Plague, by far
0 -
I found Plague's the easiest to get, actually. Hehe
Corrupt Intervention can do wonders for me early game.
But I imagine that's because I'm pretty low rank as killer. Still, that doesn't stop the game from matching me with red and purple ranks though >.>

Well this just thread just revived out of nowhere lol. But yeah from the answers I was given, Plague seems to be hardest in general and Nurse seems to be hardest on console (which includes me yay). I did manage to get Plague after a while, but I'm still missing Nurse :(

I think Legion would be hard to adept killer. 😰
