Nurse is in need for a dire nerf
You start the game and before you know it the game ends in a minute. Nurse must be looked at because this is unhealthy to the game especially combined with starstruck and addons.

Are you talking about the few rare good Nurses that are more rare than chance to get Twins 3x times in row? Because they are good with that killer? No.
Nurse is fine. It is not like she was nerfed like XX times since she came out.

Remove this Dead Hard BULLSHIT hits and then we can talk about nerfing dead horses.

Not according to her statistic kill rate. /S

1 minute?

She seems fine to me.
Last match I faced her was a little annoying as she ignored everyone else until I was downed, but I looped for about 3 gens and the match ended before reaching 2nd hook phase.
I think she is much easier to face when you can gauge her timing along with positioning around tiles.

No, Nurse is fine

Nurse was already nerfed. She's fine as she is. There is a reason you don't see any really. With the nerfs, you have to be more precise with your ability or else you waste a lot of time due to recharge etc.

Oh well. It's been said before but Nurse can NEVER be nerfed or even touched for that matter unless it's a bug. Until other killers can play high level games she cannot be touched. Blight, Spirit and maybe the new killer The Artist are the only one's who can play competitively and not get immediate owned by survivors. Half the roster should be at that level but they aren't.

Yeh she needs a nerf. Her whole concept was created when things like infinites, vacuuming pallets, exhaustion went down while running and much more things existed. Now although there is an infinite here or there, the game has completely changed and she hasn't changed along with it. She practically doesn't play dbd.

I'd rather they fix the hacking problem instead of punishing people who took the time to learn the hardest Killer in the game.

I'd rather fix the discrepancy between SWF and SoloQ so that they are more equal before nerfing one of the only 2 Killers that can counter SWF

Yeah, if the game is genuinely over in one minute the killer is not to blame. Nurse is fine, just get good. Oh, and fix her bugs!

so you want a nerf just you die to a good nurse how aobut you play the killer i love to see you play nurse vs good survivors

The Nurse needs a complete rework. This killer's existence is a mistake. Because of this, the Nurse is stuck in her current state.

What do you think would be a good rework for the nurse may i ask?
1 -
Something like... Let her blink over dropped pallets and window vaults, but not through walls. Would be a proper nerf.
I mean... I played er for one day and I already made people DC/Suicide left and right. Anyone that says she is hard to play is full of it. You literally blink on top of them and adjust with a follow-up blink if that was not enough.

nerf swf in the first place

I don’t know what Nurse’s stats actually are at the top tier, but I’m assuming they’re quite good since an excellent Nurse player completely ignores almost all vault locations.
On the other hand, I do think Nurse could use a tweak at the low end to make her more enjoyable to play starting out. My suggestions are typically
- Make the Plaid Flannel add-on that lets you see where you are teleporting part of her base kit. That add-on is only used by newer Nurses, veterans don’t bother with it, so adding it in wouldn’t have a big impact on the high skill Nurses but would greatly help new players without forcing them to sacrifice an add on slot to run it. If it did turn out to be a bit too much of a boost at the high end then just slowing down her teleport refresh timer slightly should be enough to balance it back out.
- The reason I personally, at least, find Nurse obnoxious to play is the constant staring at the ground 1/3 of the match. I would love, LOVE if they revamped it so you could at least keep your head upright and see what’s happening during the stun. Of course doing that could be a noticeable buff, so I’d also be perfectly ok with, as above, adjusting her cooldown timer to compensate if that’s the case. I’d happily teleport just slightly less often if it meant I wasn’t watching my feet all the time as Nurse.

This is a question for developers. It's literally creating a new killer from scratch ...
Oh ... In this case, the Nurse rework is unlikely. After all, its processing will not bring money to BHVR.
It turns out the Nurse is the stigma of this game, a monument to their mistakes))

Ehh... I feel like that would just limit her skill cap and that's about it. It would make Nurse boring to play as, and kind of annoying to play too.
I'm sure there's a way to rework Nurse without her being miserable.

I'm not a complete noob nurse, not top tier but decent, but I really, really don't want plaid flannel basekit. It is SO distracting, and if I equip it on I feel like it forces my focus onto it. After you get that muscle memory, you truly don't need it anymore. I know I'm not the only one who thinks so, this has usually been the case I've seen when people suggest this.
0 -
that will make her a d or b tier for sure
0 -
My counterpoint would be that high level Nurses like you would get used to a potential distraction pretty quickly, whereas the benefit to new players would be substantial. I think the upside to making Nurse more approachable outweighs the downside of some current high level Nurses taking a few days to get used to the visual.
They could also, once it’s base kit, replace Plaid Flannel with something that hides the targeting icon in favor of some other benefit.

What is the problem with that? She is literally the only S+ tier right now. Most streamers categorize her as an S tier together with blight etc. But she rly is a category apart when played properly. She skips every single game mechanic that other killers have to obey by.
0 -
D tier is generous. That would make her F tier.

But it wont make any sense if nurse can blink over dropped pallets and window vaults but not through walls
0 -
yep
0 -
It would barely change anything to 'er, other than the fact that you have to be in view to be blinked at. F tier would be a gross exageration as she can still bypass all the things that B-C-D-F tier killers cannot.

At that point, you might as well play Pyramid Head, Nemesis, or Artist.

Do you not realize why Torn Bookmark was such a trash ultra rare add-on that it had to be buffed to what it is now? Having LoS as Nurse is not always an option.

I agree she is the only broken op killer in the game but she doesn't need a nerf its only in the right hands she is like this there are not many people who play nurse at this level

This is a question for developers. But her power, for sure, shouldn't be related to teleportation. It's literally creating a new killer from scratch ...

No.
Nurse, if anything (and by BHVR's own design goals - balancing around net kill rates not ultra high MMR gameplay) needs a buff.
You heard me right.
You cannot have a double standard. If you are going to nerf killers because they are too troublesome for solos/low MMR groups despite them being mediocre at best in high MMR games, you cannot then nerf/not buff killers for the sake of high MMR games.
Even in the hands of very experienced killers, Nurse is...streaky and difficult to do consistently well with. Watch Otz's '50 wins on Nurse' video - it was almost as difficult as pre-rework Trapper.

Nurse already got a nerf sooo no shes good
