(outdated) Why is Fire Up - one of worse perks - getting nerfed?
This is a serious question. There was even a meme started by Ardetha "fire up op", is it that devs can't take a joke?
Lets be honest here, it is only used on tier 3 myers, Freddy adept or meme intentional bad builds like fire up, unrelenting, monstrous shrine, play with your food.
Lets compare before and ptb:
1 generator done: 0% / 3%
2 generators done: 10% / 6%
3 generators done: 12% / 9%
4 generators done: 14% / 12%
5 generators done: 14% / 15%
it is worse through the majority of a trial. 5 gens done and 1% buff and 1 gen done 3% buff while it is worse in every other situation? It is a joke, majority of the trial is 2-3 to gens done in most games.
Please just revert it back to its oryginal form with this addition:
3stacks: + 0/0/1% ms
4stacks: + 0/1/2% ms
5stacks: + 1/2/3% ms
It would be the first non hex perk that can give some movement speed (I don't count pwyf because it is a joke unless on tombstone Myers) which isnt that big but can help with bigger loops. At least don't nerf it Entity damn it.

They were doing so well balancing DS and now they destroy Thrill of the Hunt, Thanatophobia and Fired Up...
Pretty good job so far...

@tt_ivi_99 Wait, thana and toth too? Those are all very bad perks. Lmao, thanathophobia is bad even on Legion, its just survivors that refuse to not heal and do gens instead. Just wow...

Well since they went from buffing Thanatophobia to nerfing it one has to wonder.

Maybe Im wrong but this is what the patch notes say about ToTH: Cleansing speeds are the same.
I think that means that you no longer get the 6% debuff anymore, could be wrong tho, I havent seen it's description on the PTB

And then they will complain about killers using the same perks over and over again... yeah maybe bcoz other even bad perks are getting nerfed?

TotH wasnt changed. They just made it so that the extra BP on all tiers are the same as the current tier 3. By saying "cleansing speed stays the same", they mean they stay as they are now, because cleansing speed is the only thing that changes with each tier now.

Didn't the Q&A say that they were changing the values so it caps at 20% now instead of 15%?

@tt_ivi_99
thanatophobia actually got a great buff. i dont know all the numbers, but with 4 injured survivors, when the old one gave them a 15% penality, the new one gives them a 24% penality.its finally worth using again! :D1 -
@tt_ivi_99 also, i think with "Cleansing speeds are the same" they mean that every tier of the perk now gives them a 6% cleansing speed penality for each token. right now its 4/5/6%, with the new one i guess its gonna be 6% on all levels.

Sorry man, that 24% wont make live, check the Q&A. Devs decided to change the numbers again and it's worse than before.

I think it's a net buff if I'm not mistaken. I dont have access to pub desc. But I believe once 5 are completed it considers it 8 and rewards you accordingly.

The values for completed 2/3/4 gens are lower than at the live version.

I think they mean that cleansing speeds are the same as before the changes.

What happened to Thrill of the Hunt? I use that a lot to give survivors something to cleanse. Does it not offer BP anymore?
0 -
Lawl I only ever use this perk when there is nothing better to slot
**hint - theres always something better to slot** why nerf it indeed.
0 -
Never mind it is now 20% on 5 gens done.

Why are you comparing old fire up tier 3 with the New tier 1? Its more like :
4 8 12 16 20
