#NerfNurse

Nurse destroys an equally skilled SWF. It takes a significantly more skilled SWF to beat a Nurse.

"supposedly broken and OP"

With double recharge addons, Nurse can recharge 1.8 charges before her fatique is over, wait less than 1 second and blink twice again.

With distance addons, Nurse basekit takes 2 seconds to fully charge, and can reach 20 meters at max charge. With Kavanagh, she takes 2.8 seconds to fully charge, and can reach 26 meters. But, how long does it take to reach 20 meters with Kavanaghs? 2 seconds. So you basically gain free distance and longer charge time. But that's not all. Nurse also takes 1.5 seconds to blink at max charge, but that doesnt get altered. So you can basically blink at 20 meters, but rather than 1.5 seconds, it takes about 1 second to blink. 0.5 seconds less reaction time for the same distance is a huge advantage on a killer that already doesnt need addons to win consistently.

So yeah, basically any addons that buff her basekit without having a significant downside to it is broken on Nurse.

And its not that hard for survivors to be only between 3-5k. You only gain chase points if you're in chase. Nurse breaks chase a lot, so no chase points. It takes 80 seconds for 1.2k points on a generator, but with 1 person on the floor, you have 3 choices: 1, help your teammate up(gaining no points untill the pick-up, 2, keep pushing the gen, 3, run cus she's coming for you now. Since 3 doesnt give you any realistic points, 2 is gonna work for once, but you'd only have 1.2k points and likely to be downed next, 1 gives you 250 points and maybe a bit more if the survivor being chased lasts long enough to reach an area thats not open and actually has some structures you can use against Nurse(back in the "old" days, thick trees were the main thing you'd use against Nurse, now there isnt a single tree remaining thats actually helpful).

So yeah, where would survivors get points from? Totems? You'd have no time to cleanse totems, your teammate is downed, a second one is in chase, its either pushing a gen or helping your teammate, totems would make you lose. Unhooks? Cant, no one is being hooked. Healing? Absolutely awful when it comes to BP, also takes too long to heal up against a slugging Nurse.

And this isnt even considering perks. Just her addons. Perks would empower her even more. Corrupt Intervention prevents a lot of gens from being worked on. Pain Res+DMS just in case to slow the gens down a bit if needed, BBQ if you've tried finding survivors and they arent there, the only reason Nurses hook in the first place, otherwise Infectious Fright.

Nurse is absolutely broken and OP, untill her addons are reworked, she will remain so. Her basekit is fine, but you can never call a killer fine just because their basekit is. You need to take addons in consideration.

The difference between killers and survivors is there are multiple killers. So nerfing one killer doesn't affect the other killers. So, you can actually nerf Nurse without affecting all the players.

I mean you can be good against a nurse but there is only so much you can do against a good nurse you kinda rely on them making mistakes... Like sure you can brake line of sight but thats about it, the rest is on the nurse. Yes there are minimal things you can do to improve and get better and it kinda works kinda doesn't.... Nurse is still a strong killer but these people who cry about nurse should have played against her when she had no blink cooldown

Same for SWF, nerfing them doesn´t affect to the entire player base, exactly the same as Nurse. I do not play SWF, so It doesn´t affect me, soloQ survivors shouldn´t be affected if they restrict perks when you play as SWF to 1 perk per person (For example). SoloQ survivors shouldn´t be affected if SWF has its own queue , for example.

See? You can nerf everything without affecting everyone :)
