Wesker Buffs Lets Gooooo

Oh the hitbox decrease was absolutely needed. I actually got a bit scared when I read the notes, saw that they were reducing his collision box size, but no mention of his hit box size being reduced. He could've probably gotten too many grabs around corners without the hitbox being decreased a bit.

Also, decreasing his collision box size, plus the other buffs, will make him a bit stronger at loops, so it's good survivors have a slightly better chance at dodging his dash if they predict his dash right.

And I agree, I think Wesker will be one of the most balanced killers in the game, especially since, despite being strong, he also has a fair amount of counterplay for survivors, which is so important. I am hopeful that he'll be similarly beloved to go against as Demogorgon. I just hope certain builds like a Coulrophobia anti-heal build won't make him too unbearable to go against.

Understandable, but I really hope BHVR keeps a close eye on that build, and his 40 meter terror radius. I do not want Wesker to become another disliked killer, especially if it's just because of one stupid and incredibly cheap build like that.

I am not even concerned about the build being op as much as I am concerned about it being simply insufferable to play against, to the point where I wouldn't even blame the survivors if they suicided on hooks. I saw a video of tru3 against that build, it didn't look fun at all (but admittedily that was on The Game map), and if that would become his signature build, then I fear he might just become another disliked killer on the survivors, side, and DBD surely doesn't need that right now.

It would be particularly frustrating, because I really do believe that Wesker at base could become one of the most liked killers on both sides in general, because his design just seems really, really fair. He is strong, but has a fair amount of counterplay as well. And that's exactly the type of killer that this game needs real bad.

bruh demo's shred only works in a straight line as well and cannot be curved, he isn't going to get countered by dropping pallets as you get injured if you camp a pallet or a window, you also get injured if wesker charges at you mid-vault. wesker's infection is actually good compared to nemesis t virus. You get hindered and you basically have Exposed status effect

• I’m not sure why you think a difference between 21 meters and 11 meters isn’t a factor. Imagine if you could essentially sniper shot with Demo from twice the distance you can now when you catch someone in the open.
• Yes, 8% Hindered is significant, but you’re assuming everybody will perfectly handle the infections the entire match which is very unlikely. There’s about a dozen total doses to go around and after the first five or six Bound hits the doses will be more unevenly spread out and used by the survivors. You could easily have one survivor using two or three doses on themselves at 1/3 infection each when another survivor is at 2/3 or full infection and now needs one too for example. By the five minute or so mark you’ll probably have all or almost all the sprays used assuming the survivors are using them and not tunnel visioning the gens and healing instead. It’s very likely to lead to people having full infections, especially in the latter stages of the match.

• You’re assuming survivors are always going to be watching out for the dodge at long range. There are a lot of times when you can get a shot before they realize it, or can predict the dodge and still hit them. (You can technically dodge Huntress hatchets too for instance but they doesn’t stop good Huntress players from landing them at long range.)
• You’re confusing “playing badly” with “not playing literally perfectly”. Very few players are going to play absolutely perfectly, particularly if not all four of them are on comms together.

look at a youtube video comparision wesker breaks pallets faster with his iri addon
