    You mean I used a pallet period.

    Trash killers get 2 hits on pallets.

    I do miss the pallet vaccum as well, but we gotta adapt. If you see you are not gonna make it to the other side of the pallet before the killer hits you then just try to fake the drop and 360 the killer.

    Yeah pallet hitboxes are completely off.

    I always see the pallet coming down in front of me, but it still stuns me for some reason

    I did. Is there something specific you're looking for? Timing or something? Dropping the pallet still stuns the killer but for whatever reason they can 2 hit you. Once before and once after pallet stun. Does that help?
    Now walking and dropping a pallet doesn't work at all. That stinks but I can deal with that cause it's just a one hit.

    Yes, I agree that Spirit Fury should be part of the every killer's base kit.

    They did something to the hitboxes or pallets. Killers are getting free hits after a stun or when it clearly doesn't connect. I've also noticed weird survivor pallet vaults, can't even tell if it's framerate or they are just bugged. Survivors no longer run up the pallet but instead start their vault in the middle of a pallet

    Don't stand at the Pallet, in my experience these hits are only happening when survivors are standing at (Camping) specific pallets. Keep moving don't run up to a pallet, wait for the killer drop it, then move to the next.

    Did you forget you have to be halfway through a pallet to drop it? They removed the pallet vacuum or a reason, pallets aren't supposed to be 100% safe. If you are being hit through a pallet, you need to reevaluate when you drop them, so you don't get hit.

    No I get the stun but they still can hit twice.

    I had a weird instance the other night where I dropped a pallet on the killer and he teleported to the other side. I also had a glitch where I vaulted through a window but stayed on the same side. I can't reproduce it so maybe lag. The explosion definitely went off because the killer and I talked about it later.
    As killer, I've seen survivors drop the pallet while they're on the same side as me and I just chalk that up to either stupidity or lag... but who knows now.

    I'm pretty sure that normally killers can't hit you twice, unless they have Spirit Fury, in which case drop the pallet earlier. If it isn't Spirit Fury, I assume that either you have terrible internet, or don't drop pallets until the killer is literally right next to you. I don't know what else to say.

    None of these "Glitches" are fixable without dedicated servers.

    That is what you people aren't understanding.

    On the Killers Screen (The Host) is what matters. On the Killers screen he hit you in time. Killer being the host, his actions will generally trump your own.

    What’s a pallet? Is that the thing that makes me look at the floor for like 2 full seconds during a chase? I never get to see what it is.

    The pallets work fine and are somewhat balanced now.

    If you have not been playing this game for awhile, basically:

    - You have to completely be on the other side (the safe side, of course) of the pallet before you drop it

    - If the killer is in range to hit you, then that’s a fair trade, a hit for a stun. If you don’t want to give the fair trade, then throw the pallet down early.

    Some killers know how unbalanced the pallets can be sometimes so they will try and lunge at you through the pallet, so make sure to throw it down as soon as you get behind it.

    Working as intended. You're just falling to killerbait. Dont drop the pallet when you know you get hit.

    So you played almost 2000 hours and still can't drop a pallet at the right time?

    Git gud.

    Ahh I get it your just being toxic. Get Gud is a not a remedy or actual constructive feedback.

    I get it your just a trash killer loving the free hits. GET GUD and stop relying on the crappy programming to get kills. 
    I don't know what's funnier. You failing to use pallets after 2000 hours or you picking a fight with the admin of the DbD wiki.

    The only problem I've seen is survivors waiting to long cause they want the stun bp. Haven't had any issues as a survivor though. From Killer's perspective it looks like people are trying to slam the pallet before they've passed the middle point which results  in the slamming on the wrong side.

    I rarely use them as I tend to die or get tunnled for it (though one game 3pallet stunned a huntress in a chase and she stopped chasing me) so I try to use them as a helping aid for others hide near one if I see a chase going on nearby and stun the killer or i see them chasing a friend doing a save through a pallet and I drop them to stun the killer from getting them

    well i play on ps4 too and i am a killer but i play survivor too, what can i say to you budd? the R1 buttom box is far to appear and when it count as "pressed" we already has taken the hit, i think a little big hit box for the pallet action press would be good, the hitbox on the char is fine, ah the vaults through pallets are shitto the window vault isnt that bad

  • ad19970

    Wait I'm curious. So your problem is you are fully healed, drop the pallet, and while doing so you get hit twice so you get downed almost instantly? And it's not Spirit Fury that is breaking the pallet right?

    I like my 100 pts I want them to drop it. I also have gotten crappy hits that I know I shouldn't have. Survivors also get sooooo many other ways to screw with killers. I think it's fair.
