How much weaker would Blight be if he was 110%?

Dépends. With addons like ring or recharge/thorn ? Nothing would change for me. But if we’re talking about base blight ? He’d become quite annoying to play as because of the sliding issues that cannot be converted into a hit.

after 7700 blighted rush hits, I’d say that his power is playable at most loops if you hug tech (you can do it on console) and if you try to use your power as much as possible, that’s the most important part of learning blight and the reason why his skill cap is the highest in the game.

Many of Blight’s hits come from normal base attacks. He can certainly hit with the rushes too, but often the Rush gets him back in the chase and then he finishes it with a normal 115% chase and hit. Chasing at 110% is noticeably harder than at 115%, so it would be probably be a pretty hard hit to him.

Really the question though is, does he need a nerf at all? If his median kill rates at high level are around 2 kills per match then he presumably doesn’t. (In other words it’s possible if he’s outperforming or more popular than other killers at high level it could be a question of them needing a buff and not him needing a nerf.) I don’t have any objective data on matches involving only high rated players though so I don’t know the answer there. I know his kill rate is one of the best looking over all matches across all ratings, but that can be misleading. (Nurse has by far the lowest overall kill rate across all matches but that’s due to her being extremely challenging to become good with, for instance, and she’s one of if not the top killer at higher level play.)

If they ever did need to tweak Blight they’d probably simply make his cooldown timer on Rushes slightly longer.

Oh nvm I get what you were trying to say. The perk isn’t the problem, it’s the info

Careful now, the devs really thought giving Billy a 110% movement penalty Primer Bulb as a purple add-on was a cool idea.

You never know what they take seriously or not.

I think he would be significantly weaker. There are still a lot of loops, especially small ones, that he can't use his power in. So he would be forced to chase many loops at 110% with no power which is awful. I think it's the same reason why Hillbilly and Artist are 115% despite having mobility or range. Hillbilly can't use his power at every loop and survivors can just hold w against The Artist so it would take forever for her to catch up.

I think it wouldn't do much. It would just make him a little more annoying to play him on tiles where he can't use his power. But he would definitely still be strong.

Also welcome back from isolation.

It wouldn't make him garbage, but it would make him unenjoyable that's for sure.

There are certain tiles where Blight is forced to play like an M1 killer, so making him 110% would make him more difficult to enjoy because of how many gens would pop in those tiles.

I mean, for good Blights it wouldn't really matter since they rely on their power to get hits.

A bad Blight would struggle, because their primary chase tactic wouldn't work.

If he were to be 4.4 m/s you'd need to make it where he would be able to rush with 2 Tokens up to 5 (1st wouldn't work cuz he can't attack there).

He probably would get a smaller Terror Radius or probably not if we look at Slinger, but let's say he would get a 24 metre TR, Monitor would reduce it to 16 which combined with his speed could be really dangerous.

Personally, I'd prefer a 4.4 m/s Blight with a buffed power I can use more often rather than being forced to wait 2 seconds for each Rush Token.

But he is already very balanced. He doesn't need a speed reduction or anything. He is just about perfect.

Killers need to be strong, and just because they are does not mean they need downsides. They are supposed to be oppressive without being op, and Blight is just that.
