The Adept killer requirement is unfair compared to Survivor adept requirement

I've been trying to get an adept on clown for days and I was finally able to get a 4k with 4 gens left tonight so I though "hell yeah I got the adept!" but then I look and I was a tiny chunk off of getting it because my chases ended too quickly. I dont know how many people are going to agree with me but I think it's pretty annoying for trophy hunters to have to get Merciless just to get an adept for killer when just getting a 4k should be enough


edit: I'm not a fan of you mods moving my post from where i intentionally put it.

    Yes, it is pretty unbalanced. Some of those adept were very painful to get.

    Yes, Adept Killer is too hard, especially if we consider how wonky the Emblem System can be. Like, nobody heals and you end up with a worse Emblem, because less Health States to be removed. Yay.

    IMO Killer Adepts should be 4 Sacrifices. Or 4 Kills, with nerfed Moris, before 4 Sacrifices was important because Killers should not be able to get it super-easy by burning a (old) Mori.

    However, I think they cannot really change the Adepts, because Consoles are pretty sensitive on this topic - as long as the Achievement can be fulfilled, they dont see a reason why it should be changed.

    (If MMR goes live at some point, Ranks will not be used for Matchmaking anymore so you will get reset back to Rank 20, which would make Adepts easier...But thats about it)

    Adept killer is very hard but that makes it more of a challenge and more fun. Survivor double pips are almost impossible to get at red ranks, so the system would never work for them. I do think making it a standard 4k is a viable option, but removes a lot of the challenge aspects.

    Also, survivors have it rougher with most event objectives, like crowns, so it kinda evens out.

    I would just like to note I had another clown match where I was a quarter of a bar off from getting merciless but got cucked again by the emblem system It's unreal how broken this emblem system is.

    I don't think that ending chases too quickly is giving you penalties on the emblems. That is just a BP thing.

    Don't know if you used insta down bottles, which robs you a hit, which is definitely an emblem penalty (this is why Plague, Myers, Billy/Bubba have problems getting the double pip).

    But I agree that this should be adjusted and both roles should require a single pip. Killer is too hard, especially as red ranks need a quad iri for a double pip, while survivors are too easy, as you, on average, simply escape every second or third game or you could just urban around with a key until everyone is dead

    I know that the double pip was not always necessary. This definitely got added at some point.

    This is correct. I know that my first Adepts (Bubba and Trapper) were 4Ks, but I am pretty sure it were no Double Pip.

    Clown adept isn't hard. You have bamboozle and pop. You're just not a good player, stop blaming game for that

    We should be able to go back to only needing a 4k. If survivors just have to complete their objective to get the adept, killers should too. I get way back when when that change was implemented, it felt necessary because killers can just slap on a mori and tunnel someone. Back then, survivor was a little more difficult because if you wanted hatch, you still needed a minimum of 2 generators done. Although now, survivor adepts are a joke. Bring a key, hatch offering and hide all game. Bam. Adept done. For killer? You can do your objective perfectly and still fail to get adept because "Oh you chased a survivor for 15 seconds and it needed to be 16 seconds, SORRY." (I don't know how long chases would have to be for it to be considered okay on the emblem system, just an example).

    Just wait for SBMM, when you reset to rank 20, this will be super easy too.

    I have done all killer adepts in red-ranks and some were terrible. Mainly Plague and exposed killers, because emblem system just doesn't work for them as for other killers.
