Freddy rework | EN

Introduction

The goal of this processing is to make Freddy stronger, not weaker, the current good sides will remain, this rework will only transfer him from the middle B-tier to the A-tier.

I will answer the questions that will bother many

I'm aware of that, so most of the power-ups to the abillity in chase will occur when the survivor is in chase for a long time. So most of low-skilled survivors will get down before power-ups will help Freddy considerably. Balanced, it will only affect the high-skilled survivors who run from Freddy more than 40-60 sec

It's an assymetrical game, you forgot it? Killer must be stronger than the Survivor, and if he chases Survivors about 40 sec, that means other survivors could repair about 50% gen while chase was going, Freddy definitely needs help, and you can't deny it. Remember that there are only 5 generators in the match, and if the chases go for 40 seconds, it's easy to guess that the survivors will often win the killer.

Abillity rework

Dream Projection

> No longer gives global sound to all sleeping survivors

> If someone repairs the generator to which Freddy teleports, then he gets the effects Incapacicated and Hindered for 3 seconds. You can't spam this abillity, the ability charges will be taken away more

Dream Snares

> Increased the amount of available Dream Snares that you can set up to 8

> After 16 sec of chase Dream Snares can be used on range of 3 meters [Hold M2 for 1.5 seconds after charging to increase range between Freddy and Dream Snare]. After 26 sec - 6 meters, after 28 - 8 meters, after 30 - 10 meters, after 34 - 12 meters. (It's looks like Cenobit or Nurse abillity mechanic) (16-3\26-6\28-8\30-10\32-12)

> After 16 sec of chase Dream Snares can be used through walls and other objects

> After 22 sec of chase, all Dream Snares apply increased +10% slowness from Hindered effect until the chase is over (by default it's 15%, so survivor's slowdown will be 25%)

> After 24 sec of chase, when Dream Snares activates - it blocks any actions within 1.5 seconds

> After 18 sec of chase, you set up Dream Snares 0.35 sec faster

Other changes

> Freddy sees Survivors in the Dream World (5 seconds) every 35 seconds if they are further than 32 meters. (Lockers save from this)

> Failed Skillchecks do not wake you up

> Immunity from micro-sleep by Alarm Clocks is decreased by 15 seconds

> Survivors in Dream World repair 10% slower

Interesting facts (you can skip this too)

• Outdoor Rope, Jump Rope and Swing Chains are slightly related to each other, so I tried to make them similar and nice for the Killer to use it (Stealth Freddy is cool tho). Also originally third addon from that section (Freddy is invisible) had 12 metres, not 16, but i nerfed it
• I originally posted this on Dead by Daylight Steam Guides, but decided to post it here as well, you can rate it and help me to move it to the top of the guides, name is "Freddy Rework | EN"
• In section "Other Changes" first change can be maybe nerfed, idk
