Can we have an ETA for the nurse rework?
Dead hard is gone, halleluiah!
and now killers have received some nice buffs, and it is now time to rework nurse and bring her in line with all the other killers who cannot break the rules of the game.
Can we have a date on this please?

They just got finished balancing 40 perks and a new progression system. Safe to assume they don’t have it in the works right now
Anyway as far as I know Twins are the next killer to be getting changes

She doesn't need a whole rework.
She NEEDS addon pass ASAP.
She also needs her attacks after using her blink (so 99% of her attacks) will be special attacks to avoid Exposed effects or other effects be too good for her.
Her range addons need to be deleted or at least one of them and that one nerfed and make it that it can't stack with the same addon type. Also recharge speed should be nerfed too.
Done. Here you go.

I see thank you for the info.
I think nurse should be a priority without dead hard, they went together perfectly and now one is finally gone and it is time for the other to go too

Dead hard had 75% pickrate... 75!!!!!
No, glad it will finaly be dead. Nurse can wait a bit more.

Twins and myers need a rework far more than nurse does, imo all she really needs is an addon pass and for blink attacks to be special
4 -
There will be no Nurse-Rework, because Nurse is totally fine.
7 -
Freddy needs it the most.

Is PTB already in-game? I got no patch notes here.

Since we don´t have any official word about nurse getting nerfed and only "nerf nurse" threads. I´d say the eta for a nerf is pretty far away.

They did do a roadmap right? There wasen't a nurse update in there so atleast a year.
Also wasen't twins suppose to be the next mayor killer to be looked at?

have you considered formulating an argument, perhaps suggestions, instead of just making a post to complain? I'm sure that might make people take you more seriously

As someone who has played around 400 hours of survivor (and 200 as killer), Nurse is the only killer in the game where it feels like there is almost nothing you can do to realistically avoid getting hit. She is basically the killer equivalent of dbd cheat codes. She deserves to be brought down a peg or two.

Hard to say if Nurse is “fine” or not since we don’t actually have those sorts of stats. She definitely has the lowest kill rate across all matches, and the common consensus is she probably has the highest kill rate at high MMR brackets, but we don’t have stats to verify that latter part or know if she’s just “really good” at that level or overpowered.
What I’d love to see is a graph similar to what they did for the perk rework which shows kill rates by killer by MMR. So the X axis is MMR rating, the Y axis is kill rate, and each killer is a line on the graph with the thickness of the line showing the relative number of matches. It’s be interesting to see how the different killers line up. I’m guessing most of them would be more or less flat in the bulk of it around 50-55% kill rates, but Nurse would be more slanted with a higher correlation of MMR rating to kill rate. That’s just a guess though. 🤷♂️ (And I’m curious to see Twins in that chart since the devs mentioned offhandedly once that Twins at the really high MMR are pretty dominating.)
And it would be interesting to do his chart pre-midchapter and post-midchapter to see how the kill rates changed after this next huge patch.

"The Nurse rework"
They've never said they're doing one. So there can't be an ETA.
Salty survivor mains demanding it doesn't mean it's necessary. Addon pass? Definitely. Her base kit is mostly fine.

Doubt it would happen, it's a Qol patch next, so the next 17 are going to be $ patches.

What we need is the ETA for the SWF removal.
It is time to rework SWF who break the rules of the game in line with all the other solo-q players that play without voice communications.
Can we have a date on this please?
3 -
After we get ETA for SWF removal which is the sole reason Nurse has to exist, because no other killer can properly compete with SWF on high levels.

lol

You can't switch killers in lobby. How does nurse help out with swf if you're queuing as anything else?
1 -
play another game.
Sincerely yours, a bad console nurse player.
3 -
Rework? You're about 3 years late to the party.
0 -
Why does everyone mention these two as if they're contingent on one another?
3 -
everyone plays the same game except nurse players.
0 -
probably because I dodge the lobby if I get SWF on another killer and start queuing as nurse instead.
2 -
as soon as nurse players can no longer use op addons and perks on her maybe then the skill of the survivor will matter against nurse.

"The rules of the game". I didn't know such a thing existed.
0 -
Just curious... did you miss that *every* killer power breaks the rules of the game in their own way?
1 -
Never. Devs don't balance for strength. They balance for numbers. Nurse - lowest kill rate? Better give a buff. Oh wait. Already did when they buffed her purple range addon, the already-best addon in the game.
Animation bug when she uses these busted addons, that doesn't show when nurse actually attacks? Better pretend it isn't a bug. Oh wait. They actually did that in a thread a few weeks ago when they literally said they hadn't received reports of this bug despite me and several other people in the thread having already made reports.
Devs don't care. Just be happy the perk that blocks the gen if you move away after a hook (don't remember the name in English) got nerfed.

I also think it's worth noting - Nurse has a..what...6% pick rate? And the lowest win rate out of all the killers according to the most recent data BHVR provided earlier this year?
Totally a huge problem, yep.
It's kind of like all those jackwagons who said "Dead hard is needed cause Nurse exists"...cause we all know they took off Dead Hard when Nurse was disabled for over a month...right? :)

range and recharge addons ignore the only counterplay to her which is making distance and blocking los if she can blink on top of you no matter the distance you gained and hit you before she's even out of her blink then your counterplay as survivor mattered little.
it becomes extra fun when a nurse runs starstruck, infectious, make your choice..etc ( at least slowdowns gonna get nerfed soon thank god)
why when it's a discussion about blight even nurse mains agree that his addons are busted even tho he's a killer that doesn't go through walls and have to know how to play loops but when it comes to nurse you guys act like she's the most balanced killer in the game
she doesn't need a rework but her power level needs to be toned down so she still plays the same and people who like playing against her can still do that but without all the extra bullshit.

nah she needs a rework

Can we stop Itching about poor nurse and actually put time to learn how to deal with her?
You're insane for thinking that Developers are gonna ruin players hundreds thousends of hours practicing this killer to actually get decent or good with her just coz someone just don't want to learn the basics of how EASY to counter nurse.
Yes it's easier than it looks, believe it or not. Youtube is the key.

I’m still all for deleting her but reworking her is good too.

Freddy can wait, myers and twins have both needed changes for a longer amount of time
