Merciless Storm
Why haven't this perk been kill switch. I was playing with some friends yesterday and I did two gens in which Merciless Storm cause the gen to go down to 0 percent. People are still abusing it.

I had an impossible skill check Doctor using it the other night. It's really ridiculous that the perk is still active.

If the perk isn't actively setting the servers on fire or something then they don't killswitch it. I like how they used the Breakdown bug as an example of something the killswitch could be used for, but I doubt they'd actually killswitch Breakdown if the bug happened today.

Literally no idea why they have the Killswitch if they don't actually use it on game breaking bugs

It's mad that it's still a thing. I happened to come across it while doing an old tome challenge of Have you or Any Other Survivor complete 12 gens in total or something along those lines this weekend. We did a little over the equivalent of 9 gens altogether that game before we eventually were all killed!

Until they do, here's advice: Let go. No, really. Just let go rather than try hitting the skillchecks. It will block for 20 seconds, but no progress will be lost.

I've seen the bug on The Twitter but I have yet to actually encounter it myself so I do wonder if it's not a widespread thing or something. But I literally have yet to play against someone running it (which is weird to me since usually people will jump on bugs like this if it gives them an advantage) so I don't know if it's every single Merciless doing it or if it's a weird and uncommon combo that does it or what is up with it.

Lol complaining about merciless? Seriously? If it's a bug, ok I understand, but if it isn't a bug... Bro just get good, it's too easy merciless storm
EDIT: Sorry, reading some comments fast I thought you complained about the perk and not for a bug. My bad

yeah i didn't realize mercliess storm was bugged till someone told me on my stream...
So i accidentally used that perk One time and yeah... can't defend this perk,
needa be killswitched.. It's also broken on the PTB where if you hit the skillchecks you lose 10% of the gen progress per skillcheck hit.. lol

The number of killers actively choosing to continue to run this perk would be funny if it weren't just an indication of how much it needs to be killswitched until it gets fixed and how much BHVR just doesn't care.

they kill switched inter strength when it had the inf healing bug.

I honestly didnt even know this perk was bugged, since I typically use it on some Killers to try and get Generator grabs.
Now knowing this, I feel bad. It definitely should be killswitched like it was before.

They really need to kill switch this perk. They acknowledged in the bug report section a week ago that they know about it but still haven't kill switched it. A gen instantly going from almost done to 0 is game breaking. It's a single perk out of 106 killer perks. Why even have a kill switch if not going to use it when things are broken?

strangely all killer using this bug are in anonymous mode. like they knew what they are doing.

Why hasn't this been killswitched? It's utterly riculous!

Still nothing BHVR?

BHVR are you actually going to continue to idly sit by doing nothing while this bug continues to be exploited and promote negative gameplay?

They're waiting for the Sadako sales to go down before they killswitch it, duh.

I think the devs want this

Yeah, I've seen this, too, both as killer and survivor.
While I appreciate the surprise buff considering how easily Merciless can be countered, they forgot to mention it in the most recent patch notes.

I'm convinced at this point there has to be a spaghetti code reason this hasn't been killswitched??
