Can someone actually tell me how you lightburn a nurse?

Cause I have never done it in my 1800 hours of gameplay

    Never done it before but I think its when you blind her while she is charging up her blink

    Unless you catch her off guard when she has her blink charged and doesn't see you OR if you FL before she begins charging blink and she's not quick enough to react, it is not doable.

    In theory, you could burn her when she's charging blink onto you, but server desync doesn't give you a sufficient time gap for it to work, so this mechanics has literally never been working as intended.

    Edit: if I missunderstood your question and you meant to ask about the basics of this mechanics rather than how-to, the correct answer was given above (except that you don't have to blind her and can aim at any part of her body).

    You need to burn her while charging the blink. Problem is, it takes as long as to burn a wraith. So if you are in radius for the flashlight to burn her, you usually dont have enough time (she needs less time to charge up and blink to you, than you need to hold your flash at her) . So usually it only works if she goes for another survivor, and charges up for full distance.

    Been playing near 5 years and have never seen it or managed it myself.

    You can burn a Nurse in two ways.

    1. Shine your light on her when she's charging a Blink. Doing this for long enough stuns her, but is largely a bad idea.

    2. Shine your light on her when she's not charging a Blink. As long as you're doing this, she cannot charge a Blink and is forced to move at slow speed.

    Neither of these are particularly effective, but the latter has actually helped me in some situations.

    Its suicide to do it while she is on you, she can close the distance instantly. Only time you would ever try it is if she's charging a long blink to reach somebody else you want her NOT to chase.

    This. I've managed to do it once, but it was a long time ago and it wasn't worth it.

    You don't need to fully blind a Nurse to prevent a blink. Just shining the light on her while she charges will prevent her from blinking. She'll still close the distance slowly because she can walk towards you, but it does delay her quite a bit.

    I did it once, pulled agro on myself and was sacrificed, definitely not worth it

    You don't need to blind. It's like Wraith. You can also prevent her from charging a blink by shining a flashlight on her before she starts charging one

    It's impossible to lightburn a nurse, but u can do one thing ithat s to good against a nurse, when she does her first blink, aim your flashlight at her possition to make her cannot blink

    It's almost impossible to light burn a nurse. It's basically the same as wraith where you aim the flashlight at her body for a few uninterrupted seconds while she's charging a blink. It stuns her for a few seconds but against a good nurse you'll never get to do it so it's never worth the risk.
