As a Survivor Main i have a good tipp: Give me a reason to use the serum ?! It is much easier to ignore the T-virus effect and just go on with gens or other things. The negative effect is just not good enough and you have saved much more time as a survivor. You don't need to search for the vaccine boxes and waste your time. Sure Nemesis comes then possibly faster on T-3 but this ability is not so strong at the momend and i think that´s good for us. Any other Tipps vs Nemesis ? Let me know.

    a small tip would be to get infected by a zombie to delay tier 3 even longer

    though its not required

    I disagree. Use one vaccine at the very least if you're infected. Three hits to down you with the tentacle is much better than two.

    Depens how well can you avoid his M1s and M2s. If you give him M2s easily then yeah, might as well not use the vaccine unless you're on death hook.

    If you can evade his M1 forcing him to use M2 which you can delay also, it's a good idea to use the vaccine as long as he's often after you.

    why would I not cure the infection? afaik, curing it means he has to only use his basic attack against me. or hit me 3 times.

    It depends on if it's a competent nemesis. If they are good with their power, use the vaccine. If they aren't and go around m1ing, dont use the vaccine.

    Always use vaccine extra health state wrecks nemesis and not using it does nothing since he can farm zombies and the right addons have his power t3 pretty quick anyway, plus what are you preventing by denying his lack luster upgrades anyway?

    Doesn't work they made it so if nemesis downs you with the tenticle he gets the bonus mutation from the zombie hit earlier

    At first I would have agreed with this. But after one match using the Vaccine is insanely overpower and costs Nemesis more time to deal with than it does grabbing and using it.

    pretty sure hitting an infected survivor gives less mutation than if they’re not infected, which is what i meant

    I'll give you a reason to use the serum.

    A free Hold W to literally waste 20 seconds of Nemesis chase time that he cannot counter at all.

    As long as you're not crossmapping, using a vaccine is going to hurt the killer's time a lot more than survivors. That speed boost wastes a lot of time.

    Don't use the vaccines and I will cut your loops so easily. Of course don't abuse it, but as I played against and AS Nemesis, you be sure I won't lose as much time in chases and looping if you are always infected and don't cure yourself.

    Actually its smarter to use them at certain times. Dont forget you get a free speed boost when infected which means you can run straight at a zombie mid chases, get hit and infected but stay healthy gaining a sprint burst mid chase.

    The vaccine boxes open really quickly, there's no reason not too unless you are having to go out of your way to find a box

    my tip that i discovered myself is that you should only use one vaccine per survivor per match because their are only 4 (unless the killer has addons that say otherwise) meaning 1 per survivor is a great stratigy. also being infected is not so bad it just means zombie and his power can hurt you, only vaccinate late in the game or when you really need it like with the plague and her corrupt pools
