"We don't actively seek to tear down perks just because they are used a lot"

But the perk called oppression isn't even that good

Yeah, the Game Developers, in an evil plot, of THEIR OWN GAME, are biased to half their game, as evidenced by allowing Undying to now work with more than just one perk, and buffing one of the weakest killers in the game, effectively giving him cloaked wraith movement speed with the toss of a bottle on himself. The horror!

Killers slug, survivors bring UB. Don’t slug if you have bad dreams about UB. Don’t pick up a survivor in 60 sec if DS haunts you. Tada!!!

Well, you killer mains are always gonna find excuses, guess I don't need to spend any more time arguing with you. Have a good one, champ.

Nah, it's quite difficult to argue with someone who already decided he's not gonna listen because that's how he wants things to be. Hence, I'm not gonna waste my time, since trying to reason with a killer main is pretty much like trying to convince someone that you can travel from one point of the globe to another while riding a pink flying unicorn that leaves a rainbow trail and eats cotton candy. Got the picture now? ;) But hey, who knows, maybe one day I will wake up wanting to waste some of my time. I'll let you know, if that is the case. Until that moment, I'd rather hit myself in the balls with a burning sledgehammer than try to reason with someone like you. Been through that too many times already, even on different subjects. Adios, sayonara, auf wiedersehen.

I never specifically said those perks are god tier, I just listed perks that are actually good/usable, depending on the situation. I wouldn't be using Franklin's Demise, for instance, unless I get a group of sweaty survivors with 2-3 flashlights. Or I can use Lightborn, instead. Both of those perks make it so survivors waste their time doing something instead of healing or going for gens. There is not a single survivor who brings an item from outside the match that is not going to try to get it back asap, if you have Franklin's. You just take advantage of that, since killers can also see the items survivors will have before the match starts. And saying that nobody uses those perks is very far from being true. BBQ coupled with Iron Maiden can make a pretty frustrating combo, especially now that Iron Maiden will be getting double the duration. Dying Light is perfect to slow the game down even more, especially on some killers like Plague. Remember Me is an end game perk, but still pretty useful if you know you're not gonna be able to prevent them from getting at that point. All you have to do is hit the obsession. If you also happen to kill the obsession, nobody is gonna be able to bypass that interaction speed slowdown on exit gates. Thrilling Tremors, as much as it is not often used, is a good perk to gather intel on survivors' location and which gens could need to be defended in the immediate future. Blood Echo? You saying that having the ability to completely deny exhaustion perks, which most survivors are gonna have, is not good?

And well, talking about overgeneralizing stuff, people are dishing out opinions on an Undying nerf that was well-deserved and not that horrible as killers are making it look like. It was meant to keep Ruin active for longer, not forever. I mean, if you need to rely on having Ruin active for the whole duration of the match, it can't be said you are a very good player, tbh. Oh, and I also forgot about NoeD. That perk disgusts me, so I didn't even take that into consideration (and before someone starts calling names, I used to be disgusted by DS too and refused to use it. But nowadays the unending tunneling makes it mandatory, if you want to, you know, PLAY a videogame).

You seem to forget that DS with UB is the counterplay to be tunneled and then left on the floor to bleed, because you tunneled and want no repercussions. Two one-time use perks to counter being slugged. Stop tunneling.

Secondly, Undying is still extremely strong, it takes two times to remove Ruin. Ruin alone is strong enough but Undying gives you two chances to keep the game slowed down. A killer's second chance.

Well, that depends on the fact that survivors don't have powers or anything that makes them differ one from another. Killers, on the other hand, have powers and add-ons that can make a huge difference. Of course they NEED not to be equally strong without add-ons as they would be with them. If you take something strong enough and make it even stronger, you are basically just giving that side a free win. I am not one to advocate for SWF either, in that regard. And yes, I do realize that Undying is a Hex. Do you, instead, realize that Hexes are meant to be TEMPORARY, and not last a whole game like it used to be on many cases? It works on token totems now, so that is a buff. And as much as it giving auras of survivors near dull totems instead of hexes doesn't really make much sense, nobody wants to play a game with a killer that will drop a chase and camp the totem as soon as he learns that one survivor is cleansing the only way he heas to play the game. Again, if you really struggle without Ruin, you can play with PGTW too, it's not that big of a deal. You wil just need to learn how to play properly, instead of overrelying on another perk that was doing the work for the killer. I mean, if you look at that, many killer perks basically play the game in the killer's stead. BBQ and Nurse's find survivors before YOU have to, Ruin kicks gens for you, Corrupt Intervention blocks gens for you, Infectious Fright makes survivors scream to find them before you do, Spirit's Fury breaks pallets for you. And this is just objectively true. Sad truth is there aren't many killer perks, like PGTW, that actually require the killer to be good. Most perks are centered around making the game much easier, and that's it. Killers want it to become way easier than it should be for them. I am not saying SWF is ok, nor am I saying that DS+UB is ok, but still. DS isn't even close to that big of a deal killers want it to look like. You don't want to take DS? Slug them, 60 seconds isn't much, and it won't really be 60 seconds if you were not camping/soft camping in the first place. If you don't camp, next time you find that survivor who still has DS, the duration will probably have expired when you down him, or he won't have enough time to revive himself with UB before the duration expires and you pick him up. Better yet, even SWF survivors are still gonna try to have their precious little friend not waste UB, which means they are going to try and revive him. Which means, pretty much nobody is gonna be working on gens. Stop pretending like survivors have all the power, when it all really comes on you not knowing what choices to make and when.

And nobody searchimg chests is exactly the reason why pretty much nobody runs Pharmacy, unless he chooses to use a build focused on that. I know Calm Spirit is useful against Doctor and an Infectious Fright Oni, but that's about it. It is pretty useless. Why? While Iron Will is a counter to that cheap killer called Spirit, it at least becomes useful against any killer. Calm Spirit, instead, is highly situational at best, as it will be completely useless against other killers that are not the few mentioned. And please, don't be that guy. If you are going to claim "but it also makes it so you don't scare crows". Oh wow, so that's about it? If you run, the killer is gonna see your scratchmarks anyway. If you don't do that until you are healed, you are gifting the killer enough time to cook himself dinner. Power Struggle looked like a good perk, but it really wasn't, even before PTB, and any player experienced enough knew that. You're not gonna make any use of it, unless the killer is stupid enough to bring you through a pallet, which nobody ever did even before this perk was a thing. And if you happen to be already where a pallet is, you won't be able to use instantly on pick up, not even with Flip Flop. I just wish people would use real things as their points, instead of saying stuff just so they can talk. Better Together great? If so, that must mean I am Santa. Any player will try to keep the killer away from gens, but sometimes you have to go there to save yourself. In those cases, the killer will perhaps stop to kick the gen, then keep chasing the injured guy. And I don't really see how Better Together would impede a Mad Grit killer to hit you. "It screws over the backpack build" that's a bit of an overstatement.

Oh no, there is nothing wrong about Pharmacy. All I am saying is that Pharmacy and other similar perks aren't really worth using, as they give you something that won't really do much for you. It's pretty much like Diversion. It sucked before, it will now suck less than before. But can you say it is going to become a valuable perk? Not in the slightest. As I said, some perks were just put there to give the 3 killer 3 survivor perk layout, without putting too much thought into it. And that's okish, not all perks can be useful the same way. But between being useful and being awful there is a big difference.
