Thank you for DH NERF, COH NERF, Healing NERF

Too bad they forgot about Alchemist's Ring :(

Yeah that would be my hope as well. Now that injuring survivors is more rewarding, buying killers more time, they really need to nerf camping as well, and they can now, because killers have better ways to slow down the game.

nless of course the new meta really just becomes survivors rushing gens while injured.

"Stay on them"

That's the point, they are trying to nerf gen regression perks and 3 genning and by extension tunneling by making spreading pressure more powerful. Now instead of going after the same person, you'll want to actually keep everyone injured and run something like thana/sloppy to keep them off the gens.

I have always thought that we need to make more ways for survivors to not be on gens, then we do to increase the time on gens.

That's great I think I will tunnel even more than now as that ii now best way to counter new dh and survivors don't have time to heal and take protection hits. And as gen regression perks gets nerfed I need one out soon as possible.

I am not a DH user but 0.5sec effect is too low since you can only activate it only after unhooking (I'm guessing it is once per unhook?). Imagine every injured survivor competing to get that 1 hook save for just 0.5sec endurance. lol😆

Then they die because It is not even a guaranteed protection from killer hit. And also don't forget to consider the latency.

Maybe Dead Hard will be dead and hard...to use. Who knows...

This is good for the low tiers in the long term. Less perks carrying their trash tier powers skewing data.

There are still like 100+ other perks you can use. Maybe you could try them out now since you won't be a meta jockey anymore.

DH has always been 0.5s, the time hasn't been nerfed.

No more getting carried through matches by Dead Hard, I'm so thankful right now. Thank you, Devs for listening!

Fearmonger and Blood Echo are looking pretty sexy too for the upcoming shift.

For the first time in quite awhile, I'm excited and looking forward to playing more M1 killers!

In my opinion DH didn't need another nerf despite having the problem of forcing the kilers playing around a maybe non existen perk: first time you chase a survivor in a match and he was hurt you had to stick to their back waiting for a maybe non existent DH before hitting and sometimes they in fact had the DH equiped but the first time you chased them they didn't use it or most likely they failed to use it in the first chase, that was very annoying, playing around a maybe non existent perk is annoying for sure but the perk is now gutted and it has become useless. Say hello to Sprint Burst meta I guess.

CoH didn't deserve another nerf despite how annoying it is when playing killer, it was the only reliable self healing perk, Self Care still exists but even combining it with Botany Knowledge it take ages to self heal and having two perk just for healing yourself is not good + the (deserved) medkit nerf it feels like another soloQ indirect nerf. Well, Inner Strenght also exists, but the cleasing totem thing make it not very reliable. I would buff Inner Strenght and instead of needing the totem cleansing thing I would put a a token system and a cooldown in it (3 tokens and 90 seconds CD are good amounts imo).

And about the killer perks nerfs, well... if the survivor healing and DH nerf didn't exist in the patch maybe I would tear my clothes but considering the huge survivor nerfs, the killers nerfs are fair I guess.

1.) Killers received a lot with patch 6.1 & its subsequent patches up to the patch with the HUD update; the largest of these gifts being how survivors were nerfed in every conceivable way (they screamed longer/were louder although I know this was supposed to be reversed, they gained less distance from being hit, lost more natural progress from untapped gens, had most of their meta perks nerfed, etc). That was killers receiving something in exchange for the HUD icon update. And the HUD change was just to help solo queue feel like less of a crapshoot, something the devs talked about for years—unlike the stuff in patch 6.1 which was unexpected.

2.) Survivors actually don’t have “many good perks,” they have a current meta of around 9 perks that are consistently valuable. This is why you see survivors running the same perks in any serious or competent games they play. Meme builds don’t count. Killers have much more perk variety than survivors & can combo weak perks with stronger perks far more efficiently.

3.) Pre-dropping and mind-gaming loops aren’t specific counters to Wraith. Those are pretty much the counter to most killers on the roster. The Wraith’s “counter” was technically meant to be lightburn.

3.5) Nurse is fine, she’ll be even better after this patch.
