Is Wesker one of the worst killers in the game aside from the bugs?
Literally played 50 games with the strongest perk combos in the meta (1 build with dms + pain res and 1 build with call of brine and overcharge) and every game survivors have escaped no matter what i do. And I consider myself pretty average with Wesker yet I can't find him fun nor strong for red ranks.

whilst his 1v1 isn't the strongest he still has 4v1 potential being able to traverse the map quickly, and his terror radius synergy with the likes of coulrophobia I feel.
Some of his addons are really good too like the hindered one, I just feel his dash's collision is jank not helped by the servers not being able to keep up with him.

Doubt it. Probably just you.

I've had pretty much the opposite experience, I'm using an okay build (trying to get new vaulting in chase achievement and using a build to help) and aside from matches where I get a really bad map, I'm having a pretty good time, but as I said, he's pretty map dependent.

Traverse the map quickly? Really? He doesn't have the ability to do that.

Wesker is a decent killer, without the bugs he would be Top B-Tier at least.

He can use his 2 dashes to close a gap to an objective quick enough compared to m1 killers yes :) maybe not straight there but it gives you some speed

You have played 50 games and in each game the survivors have survived? All of them? Even without perks and without addons that should not be possible, no matter which killer you pick.

stop playing him then (please i'm sick of him he's so boring to go against after the 50th round)

He's pretty solid aside from his collision size is too small and the minor bugs. The devs already confirmed they're increasing the survivor collision radius and I'd be surprised if they're not looking into some of the things like survivors not taking damage when they're thrown into props (or whatever is causing that bug on the throws where they take no damage on a collision.)
My guess is in the end once those issues are addressed Wesker will be in the same tier bracket as Demogorgon. Wesker's abilities are more chase oriented, while Demo's portals give him much better tracking information, but they're not too far apart overall. I think a lot of people put Demogorgon as a 4 out of 5 star killer so I'm pretty sure that's where Wesker will end up too. Whether he's better or worse than Demogorgon will ultimately depend on how easy it is to hit with his Bounds once the devs make the expected changes.

With his issues of not hitting survivors or even not dealing damage when he should, he's pretty bad.
If those got fixed, it's tough to say since it's hard to judge how effective his power is when it's often a non-factor.

At that point I think you need to reasses the way you play with Wesker in general. Even if you're just using his Power for traversal, you should be getting at least one kill if you're playing M1 style.
I've been practicing a lot with his power too so I'm able to get hits with it. My build is also made to compliment his power and ability to fault quickly rather than just pure slowdown.

I think he'd be pretty good sans bugs.

The strongest perk combos vary from killer to killer. And even with 50 games you should be able to kill people in the end. Because if you lose a lot, your MMR decreases and at some point you will get baby survivors.

Yes even without perks and addons, and even with just his 3 teachable perks.

Not at all, he has a passive meter which unlike some cough condemned cough cough is useful and provives stronger chase and passive slowdown, he has decent map mobility, and at certain tiles his antiloop is very strong. What else do you need in him.

For myself I enjoy Discordance, Plaything, Pentimento and Franklin's or Coup de Grâce

Deadlock, Call of brine, Dissonance and Bamboozle. With good timing you can put survivors in some interesting lose lose situations unless they're smart enough to change tiles. In tight 3-4 gen situations call of brine really comes in handy, so does deadlock

Not even close to being a bad killer. B tier once his hitbox and bugs are fixed.

I'd say he's honestly A-Tier material. His power has both anti-loop, slowdown and mobility. He's extremely good if you practice with him and even just using his dashes for catching up is immensely effective. Wesker's amazing, just buggy

True. I also tried Bamboozle with Deadlock. But for now what I have is my way to go. And for some reason since the chapter got released there was a steep incline of Prove being used. So Discordance procs almost every match multiple times.

He's a 115 killer who has mobility in his kit
He atleast C to B tier with just that

I was on holiday when the chapter came out and started playing him with a 2 day delay. I got with him from Gold VI to almost Iri I in just 5 days. Sure matches are not easy sometimes (especially when you get robbed of hits because of his needle hitbox or other bugs) but I have been quite successful with him.
And I am no killer Main for sure, but Wesker makes me play more killer again.

He has mobility. That alone puts him in B tier.
0 -
Hard to tell. Since his power is basically useless in its current state. I mean, Onryö has mobility and is C tier. So the whole argument "but he has mobility" is pointless as long as the rest of his power doesn´t work.
