How do you feel about Mettle of Man?

Mettle of Man has seen a DRASTIC change compared to its original almost entirely thanks to two words: Protection Hits.

No longer the meta perk it used to be, MoM definitely requires much more effort to pull off than simply strapping it on.

How do you feel about it?

Killer Mains? How do you feel about facing someone with MoM before and after the rework?

Survivor Mains? Do you enjoy running it still?


Regardless of what you vote, you have to admit, seeing someone pull it off is pretty impressive.

    I play both sides, but I love the new MoM as a survivor. I like perks that give me minigame to do during the match like Saboteur, Autodidact, and Aftercare. This falls right in that bucket.

    The perk is an inherently terrible idea that needs a complete rework. Both versions of it are, but the second one is better as it can be ignored.

    Old MoM was busted and punished killers with only 1 weapon! I feel that PTB MoM was fine, but current MoM was over nerfed imo

    Old MoM was just not healthy for the game. It disproportionately strong against M1 killers while doing basically nothing against killers like Huntress who rely on using their power for damage.

    At least now MoM works against both as protection hits don't care whether it's an M1 hit or a power hit.

    If you're looking for a real fun build, I recommend

    MoM, Blood Pact, Leader, and whatever. I call it the "Heal me, [BAD WORD]." Build.

    I love it :D I unfortunately don't have Blood Pact or MoM unlocked, but this does sound like a blast in the future! I've played around with both in KYF and I like them a lot.

    Its trickier to pull off, but new MoM is still a extremely powerful perk and can shift the game in an instant. I think people really underestimate just how important getting a down is for Killers, and a perk that robs them of getting a down even 1 time can be absolutely devastating, the Killer can legitimate lose the game off of that.

    It should be current Mettle of Man but 2 instead of 3 hits. It can only activate once per trial anyways.

    Edit: 5 seconds after writing this I forgot they made it so it can be active more than once, but when's that gonna realistically happen?

    I play both sides. MoM went from broken to completely useless. What's needed here is a middle ground, in my opinion.

    Currently, MoM is pretty hard to activate, also risky, and it may never activate against certain killers. There's a reason why nearly no one uses it nowadays. It's like Second Wind: Too many conditions and drawbacks to maybe activate a perk which is only useful at certain moments of a match.

    Indifferent cuz I don’t use it and I never see it on others. This question could’ve been about Slippery Meat and get the same answer.

    trash they nerf it hard, but when you healed the killer can see you wow i mean omg its sooo Woooowww trash its realy trash !

    They should set it back to 2 protection hits. 2 at the time of release was overpowered simply because instaheals existed. Now they're gone, so why not change it back?

    I'm glad old MoM is gone, but new MoM is too hard to use without throwing the game. As others said, it really should be 2 hits, not 3. And if that's too strong then consider making it 1 or 2 time use total. But 3 hits is definitely excessive.

    As a person who runs MoM constantly, it happens occasionally against certain killers like Legion.

    The old MoM saved me a lot of times, before it was changed, so of course I would want it back, so that is why I voted that way. But, my feelings aside, I know it was too broken. If 3 or 4 survivors used the perk, the killer would have a much harder time, so the change was needed.
