Dead hard lul

Im quite amazed how after 5 years Dead Hard is stoll not working properly.

Very often i press the key before i get hit but nothing happens.

Sometimes i can see the Dead Hard animation and i still get hit. And when watching streams i can even see from the Killers pov that there is a Dead Hard animation but the hit goes through.

Spaghetti code lul.

How about Dead Hard just gives the old effect with distance but you can get hit. Well actually it will probably just make it so you get hit from 10m away. Nevermind.

    It's 0.5 seconds. Sometimes DH ends right as a hit connects. I see it working fine pretty much every match. The old distance part is gone and it will never return thankfully. That was the most problematic thing about the perk. It was uncounterable, unfair, frustrating and undeserved. Also in case you didn't know: You can only activate DH while running now. If you're standing still it won't work.

    The animation is slightly longer than endurance duration.

    Xernoton i bet you play Killer and slap survivors and see it working and then u assume it always works which just isnt the case. Anyone who uses the Perk can tell you that it doesnt. Also Dead Hard was counterable by 1 shots or exhaustion affliction but i can agree that it was strong and had to be nerfed. However currently it is unfair and frustrating and undeserved that when u use it and active it in time you dont get the effect off. Also i know its 0.5 but u can see the Animation just starting and the hit goes through even from the Killers pov.

    Id assume its because of Ping Difference which brings up another Point i have and dissapointed about which is the fact you cannot see Killers Ping in the Lobby anymore.

    i think they should remove that you have to run in order to activate dead hard. its a stupid condition that doesnt make sense. i think sometimes i just wanna fake a window vault and stand still at the window while doing so but then i cant acivate dead hard because you have to run in order to activate it.

    no. That would create many other problems. Like using DH instead of booning. There are more actions on same button. It's bad enough selfcare prevents you from opening exit gates or saboteur prioritize hook instead of healing your teammate after unhook
