    There isn't really an answer on how to nerf Nurse without untentionally destroying her.

    They destroyed spirit so why not nurse like she can't teleport before 30 second or the teleport can't through the wall

    They should just nerf her recharge and range add-ons and/or remove the possibility to stack up slowdown perks (which they won't do).

    Her basekit is perfectly fine imho

    Also spirit isn't weak at all

    I would be out if they gutted nurse I've mained her since she dropped, I took the hazing and mastered her she's literally one of the few killers that allows you to compete with even the best in the game they would be making a huge mistake if they did that.

    Amazing, how few are willing to adapt their play style to better combat the opponent. Just like the Twitter mob...you can't feed them as they are never full.


    Seriously, how long has this been going on? Plenty of streamers demonstrate how to counter every killer.

    They can nerf her without problem, if they nerf spirit they can nerf nirse

    Nurse is bad at low mmr so they don't care

    I mean so is Twins but they nerfed them. Twins only has like a 2% higher killrate than Nurse, and a smaller pick rate. Was good enough to nerf them.

    Twins are kinda unique design, they didn't know they were making a slugging/camping killer at the time. It's obvious they want her to disappear until a rework...

    Spirit wasn’t destroyed, her nerfs were healthy and needed.


    though I kinda agree that Nurse is too strong, and as long as she exists in her state (and Blight with some specific addons) the overall gamebalance can’t really be changed in favor of killers…

    If there was going to be a nerf to Nurse, I think it would be fair to make her blink attacks special attacks so she can never have instadowns with her power. Other than that, nerf recharge addons, and rework her iridescents and she's fine. She would still easily be the #1 strongest killer.

    Also they didn't destroy Spirit, she's still very good. She just has more counterplay than she did before, and I think that's all the devs wanted really. They wanted to give her counterplay, and didn't nerf her any more than they had to in order to do that. The dust change would've been overkill, and I'm happy they didn't go through with that.

    She is still fun, I just played her today, but it is so odd that the survivors got more info on you for free, then you with perks. She isn't unplayable, like some people try to put it, but I find the directional swooshing a bit too much.

    On a related note, I want a directional thunderclap for boon totems.

  • Zozzy
    Zozzy Member Posts: 4,759

    Every time i attempt to play her i get 4x iron will -.-

    she is dead to me until they revert iron will buff or delete both iw and stridor.

  • The_BiggCheeze

    Only way I see a nerf working is if you're using a mouse and keyboard they limit the look angle after teleporting. Similar to blight.

    Just had a match against a pc nurse and if she blinked just a little too far past a survivor well guess what, it didn't ######### matter because her dpi was so goddamn high she did a full 180 and hit me in less time it takes to blink your ######### eye. That is not fun to play against, especially on console. At least a console nurse is limited to an extent because of how controllers work.

    I will admit that I don't think that she needed directional audio specifically, I think she would've bee fine with just some indicator she went into her power to remove standing still. I don't really mind the directional audio that much anyway but I do play her a lot so that helps.

    You have to play against IW users differently. You are kind of limited to short bursts which are just as effective as before her nerf.

  • eloise
    eloise Member Posts: 528

    I'm totally agree, everyone play withe iron will (me too in survivor) so spirit cant hear them, pas through them, and the survivor can hear her very well, they not where she is so you can't play spirit now, they need to buff her with the first thing they nerf, i mean the collision with the survivor in phase.

  • eloise
    eloise Member Posts: 528

    Exactly, I'm on console, when I played nurse is do hard and so different than pc, on pc she can down someone in 2 seconde and with all the perk for see the oras, nurse are too strong on pc, not on console. Nurse pc are too much op, she need nerf just on pc. They can remove a killer on just switch and after add the killer (Freddy) si that mean they can nerf nurse just on pc and continue the update for other plateforme, the dev need to understand the player are not just pc, the MMR are broken, the console are everytime bug lag, why they doesn't work on that, stop to do cosmetics, with all the money you win, fix your game for a advantage on console for be egual with pc, add the possibility the chat between console and all plateforme, when we reported on console we can also send the text about what is the problem in the game like pc, with your " beta" mode add the PTB ok hit for everyone pc ND console can tried the killer and report bug before that coming on console, you can dev do that.

    Blight needs nerf before that.

    As for Nurse, most of the playerbase can't play her well yet, but eventually she will be nerfed.

    I never said that though? Of course they won’t buff the worst killer if nurse was nerfed/removed. And the other stuff you mentioned doesn’t relate to this in any way?

    Remove her blink and give it to the survivors.

    I would say you indirectly imply something like that here and have heard more explicit arguments in that direction several times already.

    And again i am of the opinion that thinking that behaviour would improve killer gameplay in anyway just because they delete and/or nerf the best options is a fools hope.

  • Mooks
    Mooks Member Posts: 14,855

    Nah. I was talking explicitly about general/overall game balance and not about (specific) low tier killers. And I didn’t say they would directly buff killers when nurse was removed but that a direct buff is not logical as long as there is strong killers like Nurse. Don’t try to put word in my mouth.

    Nerf nurse just, nerf nurse

    Look at the stats - she is among the worst killers. And we all know that stats don´t lie.

    And also she is kinda only a high mmr problem.

    As normal players you don´t see her often, you see only bad to mediocre nurses or the game ends very quickly. So not a big deal. Let one killer be able to scare some death SWF.

    The problem is not her it's her on pc, i played against her from consoles, she was strong but we do 4 gens and after she killed us but the game was fun and after I played against nurse from PC on ormon, (the legion map) she teleport very far and she down the team in 2 blink one blink hit the survivor and just after she hit again him, nurse on pc are too op

  • Mooks
    Mooks Member Posts: 14,855

    That’s not quite true though.

    there are god level nurses on consoles and there are potato nurses on pc. Just being on pc doesn’t make her any stronger, it’s just easier to learn because of performance/optimization being worse on console (which is a whole other topic) and her being easier to learn/master on mouse and keyboard, but it’s still very much possible to master her on controller

    it's not very fun to play against nurses who abuse the omegablink addons.

  • eloise
    eloise Member Posts: 528

    Nurse need a good nerf just on pc like when she teleport on pc the player can move his mouth and looking everywhere on the console you just see straight

    Nerf this, nerf that, remove this, change that, nerf this, and nerf that etc.

    3 months later

    There will be no game left.

    The only add on that should be nerfed are distanced add ons i see em pretty unfair.

  • UnknownKiller
    UnknownKiller Member Posts: 3,024

    I just see that nurses just press less than a sec the m2 and teleport a hell of distance not even allowing you to react.

  • Zarathos

    Wait why would nurses existence effect other killers. Her play rate is abyssmally low. Her kill rate is awful (for the general player base). On multiple occasions we have seen comp teams beat nurse so even the high level play argument is dumb. Distance is the nurses enemy provide you throwin the odd left or right she will lose distance its hard and she will get you. But every second you burn hurts her.

    She is uniquely one of the few only killers that performs well at a high level and has enough complexity to warrant both killer and survivors respect. Her design should be what bhvr comtinues to emulate without resorting to the same anti loop, m1 killer tripe we see.
