Adrenaline being nerfed? lets talk about it.

It's not like Adrenaline is free of issues. Some adjustments could be made.

And since we don't know what exactly the Adrenaline nerf will look like and they also have a lot of feedback telling them that Adrenaline is perfectly fine strength wise, I doubt they'll give it the CoB treatment and butcher it beyond recognition.

Personally I've never even been too big Adren. It only procs once a match, and only of course when (if) the last gen pops. I'm of the mind that having perks that help you get to the endgame are much more important than perks that help you once in it, especially since the endgame is regularly tilted in the survivors' favour to begin with (if more than two survivors remain, anyway - and if they do not, Adren also won't often do too much). Adren can also be lackluster if you're already healthy and/or not in chase, or downright detrimental as it robs you of your Exhaustion perk.

Don't get me wrong, Adren is a super strong perk that can come in very clutch, and it shines once you have a group that can coordinate its usage and timing. But I'm not convinced it is the "S+"-tier perk many make it out to be, for that its impact is just not nearly consistent enough, even if it can at times be game-changing.

BHVR definitely has a mountain of perks (on both sides) they should be buffing before they consider nerfing some of the few really good ones there are. And Adren specifically is not all that problematic, it if anything has the healthy effect of encouraging late and endgame heroics where otherwise players and groups would regularly just let the person on hook die or whatever and play for gates instead. It also makes for exciting and fun gameplay whenever it does come in clutch, both in solo environments and in cases where a group coordinates to make rescues or other aggressive plays with it.

If they are adamant that it needs some touching, the only thing I would really do to it is make it so that it causes Exhaustion for the entire endgame. Although I assume the thing BHVR may deem problematic about the perk and are looking to change is (the complaint) that it encourages survivors to opt to stay injured while pressuring gens, banking on Adren to heal them. I don't think that is really a problem, survivors choosing to stay injured and even forgoing bringing means of healing in favour of this "strat" comes with significant risks and imparts onto the killer snowball potential throughout the game for the idea of averting risks and snowballs in the endgame. NOED and Terminus are also impactful endgame perks that counter Adren to an extent or another that make it even more detrimental for survivors to have stayed injured throughout the match hoping for payoff in the end.

Either way, whatever happens to Adren, I don't think any of the perks you've mentioned need adjustments. NOED provides endgame power to a set of killers that often direly need it (for M1 killers, getting a hit on a healthy survivor can mean them making it to a gate even from halfway across the map). The threat and danger of NOED if anything make the game more exciting. Although I do think removing the Haste effect on it would be sensible, and it wouldn't even purely be a nerf: survivors would not be able to tell anymore whether the killer has NOED by making note of their movement speed. Penti is great how it is. Terminus and Friends 'Til The End if anything could do with buffs.

The only perk here that should be getting nerfed is Ultimate Weapon, and it has long been slated for nerfs by BHVR. It's hilariously obvious that it is the Made For This equivalent, designed with its pointed overpoweredness in mind. It appeared on the roadmap set for nerfs shortly after its release, but conveniently with a 6-or-so-months grace period. How much more blatant could they make it, acknowledging that it is a problematic perk with its inclusion on the roadmap but pushing any actual changes to it back months in advance? Which is particularly notable when considering that they have in recent years transitioned to a pattern of touching things released in chapters in the bigger updates directly following said chapters. They knew it was a problematically powerful perk (and then some) before they had even released it.

Noed did get nerfed to remind you not the way we wanted but still a nerf

You know it's only one time per totem don't you? And it doesn't even revive the hex in it self but give it an different effect depending which one it is in the secuence

Welp dbd is the game where nobody reads perk-descriptions i guess xD

Adrenaline should be nerfed, Ultimate Weapon should be nerfed.

Terminus? Pentimento? What are you on about lmao

settle down, they're probably just getting rid of the stuff like healing on hook.

i personally don't think adrenaline needs a nerf but a change i still think would be ok is something like charging it up as the user gets healed. getting healed twice gains you the heal effect of adrenaline, movement speed isn't affected so people wouldn't be able to just stick to gens while injured since adrenaline offers enough safety to do so.

Noed can be taken out before it ever comes into play, pentimento requires 2 perk slots to get use out of it and terminus is literally fine. You spend ALL game with 3 perks for a perk that could possibly not even be useful.
