Is wesker that bad?

That and add maybe 1 and half more seconds to his movement time when hes getting ready for a second bound and he would be fine for the most part. Most T/L Walls are too long to use a bound then try time maneuver around for a second bound before you fatigue. Maybe his power can go to 8 seconds instead of 10. Just small buffs but his survivor hitbox needs to be bumped up to 30cm from 20cm.

I agree it's kind of hard to really determine his strength when he keeps bugging out like how would the game have changed if I got the down instead of going through them

Wesker is fine for the most part. He does need some fixes in regards to hits not registering and not taking a heath state on collision, but otherwise he's pretty decent. People advocating for a return to the PTB level hitboxes are laughable and hopefully the devs take no notice. There is no way 40cm was balanced there, it gave me hits I clearly did not deserve. However, 25cm might be more reasonable in the long term. By the sounds of it, with the exception of a few very clear examples, most of it boils down to skill issue and knowing when vs when not to use his power.

Clearly we aren't going to agree on much if you think Wesker is underwhelming. He is a high risk, high reward character assuming you don't just play him as M1 only. Git gud as an argument is simply based on some of the ludicrous takes in this thread about his strength and with all due respect, people calling him bad reek of it. As for trying to bring up nurse as some sort of logistical gotcha really ain't it, her problems extend far beyond the scope of in game gameplay, we've just had proof of that. Wesker unironically is what nurse should have been on day 1 of her release, but here we are.

Do you mind if i use this video to help provide footage for a bug report?

That proves beyond a shadow of a doubt it needs to be increased. In what world is that not a hit?

One more for you incase people want to nitpick

The hitbox in general seems pretty good, yes. If it's a bit buggy, then it of course should be fixed. But I haven't had such instances often yet personally. Most of the times, I just miss by a little.

If they do want to inrcease the hitbox, I hope they only increase it from 20 to 25 cm. Or at the absolute very most 30 cm, otherwise Wesker will just start grabbing survivors around corners way too easily, but I think 30 cm could already be too much. I hope it's going to be 25 cm, because I definitely like that he requires more precision, and that survivors have a fairer chance dodging his dash. On the ptb he was like a truck.

I also have the feeling some people just need to get used to it, because people are more used to dash abilities like Demo's, that have bigger hitboxes. Ignoring the instances where hits just don't register of course.

That doesn't have anything to do with his hitbox size though, I hope you realise that. His dash just seems a bit buggy still, and I doubt anyone is defending that. You literally phased right through that survivor.

I've also noticed that small bumps in the map can cancel his second dash before you even use it sometimes. Eyrie has a lot of places where this happens, typically near pallets. Red Forest has a few spots too.

Bronx encountered bugs in 2/3 his three first games last night.

I watched Oz today and saw about one bug every other game if not higher.

Wesker's power is "janky". Unlike with say nurse you have fixed rush lengths that are the wrong distance for most loops. This makes Wesker a M1 killer on many loops. Some loops also make the ability to vault a downed pallet completely useless - which adds insult to injury.

high risk of moving through survivors or sliding across them

except freddy, plague (if i'm not mistaken she has a minor cooldown regarding her recovery after using the green puke), artist (before survivors took damage if they went into her crows, now they'll be simply swarmed) pyramidhead (his cages and later his chiasing power), just to name some of them...

Hmm may I ask what build you are using on him then? Just curious and trying to learn.

Played one match on ptb and was okeish, the main problem was the hitboxes, i never had hitbox problems per se, except the ones where you grab them and he just release them. Overall his power is lackluster, ok for mobility but not at impresive levels, on chase is also okeish until you realize that it has 0 looping and vaulting is not even worth it on chase where is assumed you are going to use it

yes, i'm absolutely serious since the question was if other killers were nerfed after the ptb, not if those nerfs were done without reasons🙄.

btw dredge and sadako didn't received buffs as far as i know (or at least nothing gamechanging for them), pinhead was NERFED and not buffed (brown and green addons for the chain hunt cooldown nerfed from 10 and 15 seconds to 3 and 6 seconds and his engineer's fang nerfed, spawning only 2 chains instead of the usual 3). trickster was buffed after being released cause he was literally unplayable unless you were aganist people who were SO BAD that they could kill themself while the killer was afk. blight had hitboxes so weird and bad that was unplayable so i would call his "buffs" bugfixes. freddy didn't needed all the nerfs that he got, now it feels clunky and underpowered using him. artist wasn't a big problem since when she put down the crows she's also slowed down, so the counter was the same as it is now: W+shift. pyramidhead was overall nerfed because as i said his cages were visible to him, so his power gave also some useful informations and his chasing power could be easily faked, now both things are gone only for having his power more spammable (they didn't even buffed the range, which is already pathetic), a pity that this attack is extremely predictable and you can't aim freely due to the slow movement, without mentioning his ms nerfed from 4.4 to 3.6. plague could at least receive a buff for her puke being faster since it can be easily juked (not to mention that her green puke is extremely clunky due to server latency: i lost the count of the times that i should have infected someone and the survivor did the animation when hitted by the puke but nothing happened), especially when in indoor maps, making her a simple m1 killer, she recently received a couple of buffs that make her a little bit better (before survivors were able to completely deny her power since only one pool was available to collect her real chasing power from the start). i've a LOT of arguments as you can see...
