Please revert distortion.

I agree as long as dm it is still reversed

You don't know how to stealth like you did before distortion regained tokens?

I feel a lot of killers are assuming it was distortion without looking at perks. These lazy players just hid on the edges or in lockers. A lot jumped from locker to locker in the basement. It wasn't distortion it was knowing how to hide. It won't stop. I really think they used Object if Obsession that way they could track the killer and move away from them. They also had bond so they can run into you on gens.

I was a distortion user and was in a lot of chases too. All distortion did was tell me to get away at the beginning of a game.

The amount of matches I have recorded where the distortion user did far more than the non using one. Heck cant tell you how many times I had people with no distortion still hides all game doing jack squat. But ofc they are just gonna always blame the perk.

Just hope when things like nth gets called out for nerf and what not you see how defensive they get. But aura read for killers is just as lazy too like lethal, who cares if it's just 10 seconds , yeah 10 seconds and down go someone by a Billy before they even get a chance to blink and check out how the map is set for them. Funny thing watch when everyone now runs sole survivor it really be hilarious especially since that perk makes opening the gates booming fast.

I do. I usually don't use more aura perk unless I am on Huntress. And that's only the case because I am practicing orbitals.

I can also say something similar: "Yall are so lazy. Yall don't know how to properly hide in lockers anymore like old days."

Because that is exactly what you did back in the old days. True there was not really anything besides BBQ and Nurse's that was used (and the occasional Bitter Murmur), before more got added.

Today you need to play around it. And the solution is to position yourself properly, loop for as long as you can and do gens.

People really claim the Distortion rat playstyle is uncommon?

Maybe if you're good and in high MMR, but I'm gonna tell you a secret... most of the DBD playerbase are not good... in low and mid mmr Distortion rats are a lot more common.

Contrary to popular opinion, DBD MMR does actually work reasonably well. If you have any newbie friends or players better than you to play with, just watch how much easier/harder looping becomes. Most players are low and mid MMR, how do we know? Pig and Sadako vs. Blight and Nurse killrates.

Around mid and low levels, trust me, you can almost always tell a rat player with Distortion. I've legitimately seen maybe ⅛ of Distortion users use it properly (and that is being rather generous). The rest:

• Only do the safest gens on the edge of the map, always resulting in 3 genning us.
• They are insanely inefficient where they always hide the minute there is a chance the killer comes anywhere near them (even if the killer is currently occupied in chase, off they walk).
• They almost never go go for the unhook, leaving the injured Yui with 1 hook or the death hook David to do it, even though they're on 0 hooks.
• Even if they do unhook they certainly ain't gonna stick around to heal you or make themselves obvious to try and distract the killer off the tunnel.

As Survivor I get really annoyed at Distortion users, you watch them do the above, and sure enough, you see Distortion every single time. Would they change everything with this Distortion change? Probably not, but Distortion working how it used to makes games so much harder. At least with new Distortion the killer can actually find them and give some room for the rest of us to breathe. As killer more often I win, cause as described above, they make the game easier for me in various ways. The reason I always hated Distortion was I like to spread hooks and pressure, and avoid tunnelling, win or lose.

I have had plenty of games where I've simply not been able to find rat survivors and ending up tunneling out of necessity; even saying out loud "someone better knock off this hiding crap and show me their ass right now or Claudette is going to die". It always results in the person I would actually give hatch to cause they played well and stuck it out like a trooper, is the only one I can find.... it sucks, and I'm glad it's gone 😒

Exactly but they won't admit to it and know aura reading is just as or more crutch as distortion is. I bet you if bvhr one day decide to limit aura reading to just one and you can't stack them and give them the pain res treatment of 4 use of any aura read including lightborn fully negating flashlights all match what a hissy fit they will throw. @Rick1998

That would be the most fair solution. Requires you to not be a potato at looping to get stacks, but still does it's job, if you do well.

What aura reading perks? You're just waving your hand like most of them do anything. When's the last time you saw hangman's trick? How about alien instinct? Awakened awareness? Is the answer never? Because they're really really bad? I like the random segue to lightborn by the way. Definitely relevant.

I don't think there's any point in arguing with this guy. I'll refrain from saying more colorful things about him, but it seems very clear to me, that he's not going to change his position. He doesn't like them, therefore bad. If bad, then; remove/nerf perks to the ground.

I'm totally ok with this or even including gen time as part of the 30 seconds. 30 seconds is forever in a chase especially when the killer drops a chase frequently.

If a killer dedicates three perks to information, shouldn't they be guaranteed to get some information from their build? Isn't it bad if Distortion just completely shuts down all three for the whole match?

Furthermore, isn't it good for the survivor team that the killer only has one perk that can affect generators or chases?

Finally, doesn't Distortion being a little weaker open up the possibility of using other aura-block/stealth perks?
