DH Now De-Activates Upon Usage, Regardless of Successful Activation

How to make something that could have seen some use for good looper to something that will be buried under the other 90% useless perks.

This information is accurate.
DH deactivates after you use it, regardless of outcome. You'll need to get another unhook if you fail it.

The problem is that this perk needed A COMPLETE REWORK, not a nerf.
Even nerfed this perk maintain all the issues that this perk could bring.
So no, i'm not satysfied at all by this nerf since this perk should have never been existed in the 1st place

Or unhook yourself

Well to be fair, when people normally talk about reworks in this game, they usually mean nerfs.
(See discussions about killer stuff, especially top killers lol)

i don’t even use DH but it’s hit and miss if it even works because the servers In this game are garbage. but it’s also easily countered- you just need patience.

I’d love them to fix hit Reg but tbh I’d rather it be like this than what it is currently
I seriously don’t think it’s a issue they can realistically fix as well. DBD net code is notoriously pretty shaky

Good. Dead hard has been the definition of ez no skill meta perk since its inception and whatever criticisms I may have for BHVRs track record lately they've finally done what should have been done years ago and nuked it completely out of the meta.

I would say the usage rate of DH in mid to low mmr on EU servers are lower compared to north american server because on EU server are a lot high ping killers.

Most of the time I try and use DH, it never works. I'll see the animation and still get hit. With this new nerf, I really don't see myself using it as my only exhaustion perk anymore due to the very high unsuccessful rate I have with it. Pairing it with another exhaustion perk sounds better.
Also, I'm one of the few players who loves playing with No Mither and even though DH hardly works for me, I still ran that build with it. Now that it's mostly useless to me, I'm afraid I won't be using No Mither that much anymore. ;(

It's a massive nerf. For those who wanted it mostly out of the game I think they got their wish.
I could see a build that runs it. Deadhard, We'll Make It, Deliverance - take no risks until the first unhook, that gives you a DH, plus a 2nd after the deliverance. If you're going for unhooks constantly We'll Make It can be useful with new healing speeds.
As for the perk itself to keep it viable it should have had one of three additional elements
Either:
No exhaustion, tokens for use, 30 second cool down
Exhaustion occurs on use, but only deactivates on success
Longer speed buff on success
A guaranteed sprint burst or lithe seem like vastly superior perks to one that the survivor might not even be able to access and even then might not pull off successfully.

People should stop thinking that those are the same things:
rework is when you COMPLETELY change something from what was previously (old freddy vs new freddy for example), while nerfs are decreasing the effectiveness of said killer/perk/item/addon

I stopped using DH long ago but I still think it was overnerfed. A person is really only going to have the perk once or twice a match. I think it should only be gone after activation by a hit, but it should have a cooldown so you can't spam it in chase.
