What do you think about new Predator and Zanshin?
I think they do very good job with this perks. Old Predator was no mither of killers perk, now its actually good perks for beginners to help them when they lost a chase (especially after dance with me and quick and quiet buffs). And old zanshin was just a joke, being beginner perk also hide behind 90 hours grind paywall to buy Oni but also its effect was just useless (information for killer where windows and pallets is absolutely meaningless) and new perk is very good at strong loops, but it sure needs cooldown at least 40 sec.

Predator's new design is quite good considering its a free perk from a base killer. Helping new killers keep track of survivors in chase helps the notoriously horrendous new player dbd experience. New zanshin is obviously good, but I'd say it doesnt need a cooldown. If the killer wants proper value from the perk then they choose not to break the pallet once its dropped, providing the survivor a resource they'd otherwise lack. This is especially true if they choose not to break it all, choosing stronger presence at that tile over removing survivor resources has a large effect later in the match.

10 sec with no cooldown can be problematic on pyramid head or cenobite (with iri chain addon)

Predator will be a problem on nurse.
Zanchins aura needs to be reduced or a cooldown applied.

Nurse already has limited perk she can used plus she has lowest killrate in the game (so one more good perk on her is actually cool)

yeah, she will injure you, lose chase on purpose, and kill you because she has aura on you, it will be very cool to go against.

She has the easiest counterplay in the game and people still complain about her? Plus if its perk would be to effective on one killer with lowest killrate its not a big deal.

Is this a joke?

Predator works too well on Nurse (considering losing chase is pretty simple for her post hit) and Zanshin is far too reliable for information at tall walls.
Maybe draw back Zanshin to 1 second aura read near dropped pallets (or whatever makes sense) and make Predator a killer instinct perk.0 -
I don't know how I feel about a killer perk hard countering weak, goofy chase perks like Dance With Me and Deception. Ideally survivors should be incentivized to run those kinds of perks, instead of more meta picks.

They’re bad designed.
Predator will reward killers for losing survivors and punish survivors for outplay the killer, besides it will be used for tunneling.
Zanshin just deletes any mind games survivors can do around the pallet, Pyramid Head will be busted with this.
All of this after nerfing distortion. Is gonna be a pain

Current predator should exist to counter perks like dance with me or quick and quiet, and zanshin just need a cooldown

What do you mean. She has lowest killrate in the game and also people overreact when call her strongest killer (she is not even close to that title)

No. 8 sec for Zanshin would be great and made 40 sec cooldown. Plus i dont think we should change predator cause its too effective on killer with lowest killrate in the game.

Why incentivize this? After the buff they became too good at lose chase with killer and predator just logical answer and counter for them

Lowest killrate =/= least OP. She doesn't even have the lowest KR iirc.
8 second Zanshin, maybe. I'd prefer somewhere down at 4 seconds but have to consider Nurse, Pyramid Head and killers whose powers ignore walls. Besides, killer instinct on Predator wouldn't make it completely useless nor broken on Nurse, it would just require more precise blinks.0 -
looks like you have never found a good nurse to say this, if you really think a single double back is the key to counter a GOOD nurse, good luck with that.
also, everyone know why nurse has a low kill rate, but she is the second best character in the game.

What do you mean? The buff was just reducing their cooldown. Their effectiveness hasn't changed.

I’m torn as I could see how these could be really strong on some killers, but survivors can already see the killer through or over a lot of walls like killer shack and some jungle gyms/TL walls. Where’s the mind games when one side can see the other when it’s that way round?
