Nurse Needs a Rework
intro
Yes, I know, I know, I said it. Please read my argument before commenting.
Argument
Nurse needs a rework because she has too high of a skill cap AND there is nothing wrong with that. But it can be frustrating for people wanting to play Nurse and then getting wrecked by survivors because they are just trying to get good.
When Nurse is mastered she becomes too powerful and annoying. It's basically a guaranteed 3k because the Nurse is so good. Just think about it, she can teleport through walls, pallets, and can easily shut down a loop in seconds. Playing against a really good Nurse is boring and isn't fun because you can't loop her like a trapper or huntress etc... It can be satisfying having a nurse miss a hit and tricking her, but when nurse is mastered she barely ever misses any hits.
Outro
I'm not saying change her power but she needs to be easier to play and more fun to play against. I don't know how they can rework her without taking her basic blink aspect away but she really needs one.
Don't hate me, I'm just expressing my issues with nurse. it is my opinion!!

Totally agree. Nurse is more broken than spirit and Freddy combined. Too bad people don’t realise

Yes, we need weaker and more accessible Nurse. Nurse mains will cry below but we all know that must happen

i agree but I want her to be reworked because she’s to outdated if she came out today she would not be this strong back then when she came out the devs were still experimenting and in today’s DBD she’s dated she needs to be reworked

Keep her the way she is..
Fix her blink bugs issue.
and js. nerfing her would be a hard mistake, 100%

People don't realise it because actually good Nurses are extremely rare. You might face a decent Nurse every now and then but they'll probably make a few mistakes. Mess up some blinks, whiff hits if they're juked etc. A genuinely really good Nurse is very hard to find in a public match.

You see the problem? Good Nurses are rare because she's hard to play again. Also Good nurse will mop floor with you.
So she's too hard to learn and too Strong at same time.

No, she's perfectly fine, the one and only killer that actually significantly changes bases of gameplay for both sides. Wish more killers were as impactful to gameplay as she is (and so much fun to play against imo).
Besides, reworking her because 0,001% of players are too good with her is just silly, it's like balancing around 5k hours per player SWF deathsquads which are about as rare as god nurses.
The basic formula of 115% and 110% killers could use another shake up possibly with this next RE chapter.

I don’t really think it’s possible to rework Nurse in a fair way that keeps the concept of her power. Teleporting through walls will always be very strong.

Yeah, that's the one issue with reworking Nurse

Although I see your point, you rarely see a good nurse, sure there are some decent ones but they're skill is nowhere near that of a good nurse.

I can tell u that they don't need to do so much because she had the worst hit validation i ever seen.
When i play survivor i get hit from 2 meters, but when i play nurse i can see the weapon going trough the survivor who didn't get hit.
And i'm not tlking about small walls she can't go trough or when u hit the pallet and the survivor between the pallet an you didn't get hit.
It's also so good to go downstairs when you look up.
That's maybe the reason why only 2% have the 500 blink achievement.
Nobody want to play this frustrating to play killer.

Disagree.
There's no guaranteed 3k or even 1k with Nurse. The problem comes down to survivors playing like it's just another M1 killer. Not to mention the Devs tied a masive ball and chain to her the last time they messed with her.
Her power does not need to be made easier. There are 20+ killers to choose from if you can't put in the time. Not every killer is for every player. If I keep missing chainsaws with Billy should I demand he be made easier?

If you're playing on Steam, just turn off cross play feature and get red rank. I met a lot of good and "tournament" Nurses that love to tunnel 1st guy asap lol And they're playing good.

I feel like they should keep her the way she is, I'm scared that they'll end up killing the Nurse. I think she's in a good spot rn, especially after her nerf a year ago.
I get what you mean when you want her to be more fun to play as and against, but I don't know how anyone can manage to do that unless someone can come up with a great idea.

I always have fun playing against nurse, because counterplay is different and interesting in comparison to most of the other killers which basically consists of running in a circle around a loop a few times, then dropping the pallet, or faking the pallet drop. You can't play like that against a nurse, you have to change it up, be unpredictable. And that's fun, in my opinion.

Isn't that the definition of a balanced killer though? The nurse's strength in a match is heavily dependent on the killer player's own skill. Good survivors can juke blinks or predict where the nurse will teleport, which works against even high rank nurses.

No survivors cant predict where the nurse is going to go. Because like I said in the post if the player has mastered nurse they are too good for survivors to predict anything unless they get lucky
