Aedpt Killer punishes you for killing survivors too quickly

They should make 4ks give you Adept Killer, it's pretty ironic how you need to be a merciful killer in order to get merciless.

    Yes, the emblem system sorta falls apart when either side wins "too hard".

    They'll never change killer adept though because "it'd be unfair to all the people who already got the adept achievements." I'm paraphrasing a bit but that's basically what they said.

    The real issue with adept for me is how affected it is by survivors especially at red ranks. Oh a survivor decided to suicide on hook? Sorry no adept. survivors decide to pound gens and let team hit second state even if you aren’t camping? Sorry no adept. There’s a claud urban evading on a swamp map so you only get 10 hooks even if you 4k? Sorry no adept. And this isn’t even bringing up how instadown killers get treated. Adepting at red ranks goes beyond not killing them fast and reaches borderline handholding

    No, that was the reasoning for reintroducing a way to get legacy. Regarding killer adepts, they said that it's difficult to change achievements on console, esp. with playstation. PS only allows to change achievements when they are literally unpossible to get. The condition for getting killer adept is and always was a merciless victory. They cannot change the adept requirement to just 4k, PS won't allow that. Yes it was like that in the past (or more like a certain number of hooks, before the emblem change), but they won't go back there.

    It was just bad design from the start, basing survivor adepts on the performance of a single match alone, where killer adepts are based on your match performance and your current rank (bc. getting merciless is more difficult the higher your rank is).

    Emblem system also punished survivors if they are too good.
