Dredge needs nerfed
When are we going to adress the fact that dredge is busted. He can traverse the map with his locker teleport and sometimes even use it mid chase. THEN he can put his other teleport down on loops to easily teleport too and get easy downs. Lastly, he can make the whole map dark for the survivor…. His kit just seems so packed with power and i feel like cuz he’s not picked much people don’t acknowledge it

Alright alright, I’ll go play some Dredge matches…come on guys, the over powered Killer, nobody picks much, needs to be played more so we can address this problem ASAP!

Because having a bunch of abilities doesn't mean match when none of them are especially powerful.
-Good survivors literally don't care about darkness it's just a mild annoyance.
-The teleport loses a ton of impact when you're spending half the game breaking out of locked lockers.
-Their antiloop is decent but holding W isn't that hard and it's a 12 second cooldown.
Dredge is very decent but they can't do anything that crazy in terms of lethality and calling for a nerf for a killer that nobody plays is very odd.

I think he's fine and a fun killer to play against, except for the nightfall. It's way too dark imo, but whatever.

Lockers are the worst thing to be able to teleport to imo.
Gen teleports (Sadako/Freddy) are much better just because you are guaranteed to be near the thing you need to defend. Then you have nurse whose teleport allows them to ignore 99% of the map. Or hag who can set up the zone to defend and can guarantee herself good places to teleport to.
Lockers are map dependent. Swamp maps don't have many locker spawns vs Midwich where lockers are basically everywhere.

Let me guess, had a match against a good dredge, you got stomped, and now you want the killer nerfed.

Aight. Good thing there are more balanced killers like Nurse and Blight.

Yup. Nightfall is way way too dark. That needs to be fixed, otherwise I don’t have a problem with dredge. I think he’s a legit scary killer and can be fun/scary to verse especially when you’re going against a skilled player.

Dredge is garbage. He may do “a lot”, but it’s a whole lot of nothing.

Dredge is fine. Their anti-loop is pretty weak and easy to read. It's easy to detect them during the darkness, just listen for sound cues. Their only real strength is their teleportation, which you only get 4 tokens. Transversing to lockers is super slow out of Nightfall, making it barely useful in a chase unless a survivor is super close to a locker. Even then, their next move will be easily readable in that situation, even during Nightfall.
Just because a killer has multiple abilities doesn't mean they're overpowered.

The blob isn't op but christ is it annoying to face. Easily my most hated killer.

Only the nightfall that need "fog" to cover the view range instead of being too dark. Thats all the nerf needed.

Yall all die ro every killer so you don’t see a difference, makes sense!!

I would also like to point out how people with vision impairments are negatively impacted during nightfall, on some maps I literally cannot see anything because all the colors just blend together. So handling nightfall does not necessarily depend upon skill since some people cannot inherently handle it to begin with.

Pretty sure most people would be closer to buffing Dredge than nerfing him. He does a lot of things just averagely. He’s not even played that much.

drop the act bud, we can all tell you're on that updog

At this rate i expect people asking for pig or trapper nerfs soon

I’d like to point out how players with learning deficiencies and a lack of hands struggle to play the game also.

Imo the maps aren’t dark enough during nightfall

Does Dredge have a significantly higher kill rate than other killers?
BHVR have this information, and if so, can nerf him.
If not, maybe you're speaking out of your proverbial?

Nightfall -needs- to be really dark, otherwise what's the point of it?
In his PTB it wasn't that dark and it was literally pointless.

Agreed with this. If Nightfall were any more brightened it would be completely useless.

Counterplay, it all has Counterplay.

Yeah ignore the strong killers nerf Dredge instead lol

Not to mention...LOCK LOCKERS....not all of them just one in a group and Dredge WILL to to the locked one....I don't know how many times I either see other survivors lock everything or nothing at all....

Yeah the Killer that has a Low Userate on High Rank needs to be nerfed so we See more Nurse and Blight 🤷♀️
As a Dredge Main i can say against a Good Squad he is weak and its Really hard to do something there is a reason why many pro gamers but him in B Tier if u know how to counter his Anti loop he is just a M1 Killer
His Anti loop is easy to Read, his teleport is slow outside of Nightfall and most Time u cant use it mid chase also his teleport is very Map depend sometimes u have Really awful Locker Spots also u can Counter his teleport by closing the lockers
For me and alot ppl he is 1 of the balanced killer in the Game i dont Think he Needs buffs or something
Im pretty Sure u was playing ur First Time against a decent Dredge and lose and now u Instant Cry 4 nerfs 🤷♀️

If they're so op, then play them in high mmr

No I’m sorry this killer is bull and discriminatory I have eyesight problems can play the game perfectly despite being colourblind and wear glasses but only with this killer I can’t see nothing and really hinders gameplay I feel bad for any gamers with worse eyesight than me playing against this killer dumb design

If you go down to DREDGE anti loop then idk what to say other than skill issue. He literally moves slower while charging power so its just a free W hold unless you zone yourself.

You forgot Cube teleport: you can teleport to wherever the survivor wants you to. :]

His teleport is the slowest teleport of all and the most situational, because it is limited to certain places whose location does not depend on it.
His antelope is absolutely useless against shift+w, as is the teleport to the cabinets, which is again temporary and notifies that he is passing through (the locker doors fluctuate a little when he passes through. Didn't know this fact and don't look at it? NOT A KILLER PROBLEM now you know.) which allows the survivor to quickly run in the opposite direction (which most often will happen)
That is, we get a standard shift+w killer like xenomorph, nemesis and others in pursuit with the worst teleport
Yes, there is a night that is extremely unpleasant. BUT IT IS DESIGNED TO BE EXTREMELY UNPLEASANT

“Dredge Is OP”.
Nurse and Blight Players: Am I a joke to you? 🧍♀️

Which dredge do you play i wanna play too

Nightfall acts as a Dredge buff rather than just blinding everyone. Even if they adjusted the visual aspect, it affecting the killer teleport is still a positive thing. Maybe they could buff the time between nightfalls in exchange for not causing survivors to be unable to see anything. Give more super dredge time, ya know?

I mean you can tp around the map as much as you want, if I can see you while in nightfall you aint gonna surprise anyone, me and my team can just pre-run and waste as much time as posible.
Also if this change happened you should take off the undetectable from nightfall since it would be useless like it was on PTB dredge.
On top of that if nightfall only did add onto speed then just run boat key then, thr mrchanic would have no more use than a good addon would.

Tbh I used to think Dredge was busted on release but when you learn how to counter (no perks needed) then it's not that bad. Watch for the teleport then 180 and back track. My only complaint is darkness as it makes playing miserable for sure but it's not the worst thing ever.

Dredge is fine

When are we going to see a post that a survivor doesn't ask for a,killer to be nerfd?
But Dredge? Really?
It's Blight. It's nurse. It's spirit. It's wesker. It's skull merchant. It's alien. It's Knight.
Nerf nerf nerf.
What do you want a gen repair simulation game?

Wow, Dredge OP.
We really do gotta buff Nurse and MFT.
Don't forget about nerfing no mither and pig!

Dredge is not OP, and nightfall really isn’t that bad. It has decent counters.
0 -
While i think he is very strong in the right hands, he is probably not overpowered.
- Nightfall does not do that crazy much if you have decent map knowledge.
- I like his teleport a lot, more killers should have abilitys like that.
- His anti loop is the only thing i would considere nerfing or rather changing completly. In general, i am against any cheap form of antiloop because they make gameplay very one-dimensional. Artist, Alien and to some extent Dredge and Knight are some examples.

The darkness from Nightfall can be mildly annoying to very annoying depending on your monitor settings / light conditions, I imagine it really sucks for console players.
