New killer perks are too OP! Needs nerfs before release

Yes, all of the 3 new killer perks are op and need some nerfs before release. Survivors only got average perks, but killer all 3 of them are too good, especially the exposed status one. How do you want to save a survivor with bodyblocking then?

But also blocking exit gates for 40 seconds is too op. And a bamboozle over the whole map without cooldown is too strong as well.

    None of them are OP lol

    1. First one just don't body block, killer is slow while carrying survivor anyway.

    2. Hex, can be broken and waste of a perk.

    3. Do totems are just cleanse Noed, its not that hard to find once the fifth generator pops!

    If your team was able to finish all 5 gens, you should have no issues waiting out 40 seconds to start opening the exit gate.

    Nothing is stopping you from body blocking while exposed. It just carries a bigger risk if you fail to buy enough time for your teammate to wiggle out.

    I wanna be able to punch a killer as a survivor, imagine a feng decking a trapper or oni

    Imagine not figuring out this post is a meme.

    Literally all of the perks are reworked version of older ones except for the Hex, which is genuinely worse than Bamboozle and the best maps for totems (Léry's, Midwich and Hawkins) don't even have that many windows and have more pallets over anything.

    Given this games community, its impossible to tell what is and isn't a meme these days 😂

    As both survivor and killer main I will say that his perks are not OP. They are "ok" perks in my opinion.

    Starstruck can be avoided by careful playing, During his Tier 3 Myers have longer exposed effects and still survivor can fight againts him.

    Hex:Crowd Control is a totem that can be cleansed and it is done. Like Hex:Ruin you should just find it and clean it.

    No Way Out that blocks the exit gates for 40 seconds is not that big problem if you can hide well. I think that Blood Warden is more problematic than that because when you hook someone during end phase if the gates are blocked you will be dead with your teammates but for the No Way Out you can just hide in lockers, travel and etc...

    I don't blame you, the perk design is so odd that we can't figure out anything nowadays (also sorry for being slightly mean lol)

    Uh Lery's has a ton of windows.

    Also I wouldn't say it's worse than Bamboozle. Crowd Control can block multiple windows and can shut down the LT tile completely something Bamboozle can't do. Bamboozle is also easy to counter by running to a different tile as even with the faster vaulting, killers still vault slower than survivors. Whereas Crowd Control just happens when survivors fast vault and if you herd survivors right with proper pathing they'll trap themselves.

    The killer's perks are really good, but they have their own issues too.

    The window vaulting one is a hex and just won't be used as most killers don't know how to apply gen pressure without ruin. And if they bring ruin odds are they bring undying. They're not gonna bring three hex perks. Lol

    The one where you pick up survivors isn't really that strong either. Its ONLY for killer's within the terror radius. Just don't body block when you get exposed. Lol

    And the last one...I mean there are situations where that could be annoying you'd have to design your whole build around endgame and I just don't see a lot of killers doing that. You can literally just hide for 40 seconds.

    His perks are not OP. As a both killer and survivor main I would say his perks are between moderate to ok.


    Starstruck is a perk that you can avoid easily. If the DBD community can avoid Myers Tier 3, they can also avoid this perk to...

    Hex:Crowd Control is a hex totem. You just have to cleanse it and that is done it is no more a problem.

    No Way Out which puts max 40 seconds block to exit gate switches are not that great cause the survivor can easily hide inside lockers or hiding another places while waiting that time. I think that Blood Warden is more dangerous then this cause when it is activated the game timer already started and survivor can be dead due to gates are blocked when the time finished.
