Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    Doctor is already able to shock through different floors if Survivors happen to be inside his Terror Radius, if I remember correctly.

    However, consider that "abused" is a big world, altough I admit, when you meet a Doctor who has Distressing and Static Blast add-ons, it's not fun at all. I'm writing this as a Doctor main who however doesn't use this kind of things.

    Tbh it's only a problem on The Game, Midwich, and Hawkins which are already pretty poorly deigned maps as it is.

    I really do think the two-floor maps need adjustments to game mechanics so that the radius effects are more "pill-shaped" rather than sphere-shaped. Strategy-wise, being on the second floor is very far from the first floor, so it shouldn't be easy pressure going through a ceiling. It also makes the terror radius kind of useless information. That said, that's not going to suddenly make Midwich a good map. As dumb as it sounds for a horror theme, that place needs signposts; for both sides.
