Plague Tips

I just got plague and I'm so bad at her.

I feel like I get overwhelmed and for some reason am so bad at hitting my corrupt purge.

Any tips to be better at vomiting wahhhh

    When I use the plague I generally hold the button down for one or two seconds, then turn my mouse so the vomit comes out in a crescent shape. If the survivor is being really tricky though I hold the purge down and fire it up and down vertically so if they're ducking behind something it's more likely to hit them. It's one of those things you feel out. Give it time.

    Edit: Turns out I do not actually move my house vomit with the plague. That would be too much work. My mouse on the other hand...

    Ill try that out, I find myself literally spraying my vomit out by moving my mouse left and right and just praying it hits.

    vomit is a slow continuous projectile so aim ahead. For vile purge if you have time and they’re at a bad loop keep puking on them until they become infected, for corrupt you only need to hit them once to damage them so if you have a clear shot just shake your camera left and right and it’ll eventually hit them. Remember not to respect too many pallets against good survivors because they’ll loop you for a long time as you keep trying to charge it.

    Your goal at the start of the game should be to infect survivors as fast and efficiently as possible. You can achieve this by vomiting a little bit on pallets and windows or just spitting on survivors a little bit of vomit. If they seem to be good at dodging your puke, then go ahead and just smack them to continue chasing them or just leave to infect other survivors. You goal should be to fully infect survivors as much as you can.

    Check out Otzdarva's quick killer guide on the plague to see if that helps.

    When I just started playing Plague, I tried to hit survivors only when they fully infected. That was my biggest mistake. It's better to infect survivor and hit. Then chase him as regular killer. Injured and infected survivor emit noises even if he has iron will.

    If survivors won't cleanse, they will be loud and injured which is bad for them. But if they cleanse, they will turn you into huntress on steroids which is much worse for them. Good survivors prefer stay injured and cleanse at most distant fountains that is hard for you to reach. And they cleanse only if it's really nessessary. Or when all gens done.
