Pain res + DMS every single game
Will you ever do something about DMS? Its One of if not the most overpowered killer perk in the game and completly destroys survivors without comms to make it worse this perk is completly op on killers with mobility aka the best ones.
You have stats, you know this perk has a Higher pick rate than pain res.
You nerfed deadlock, you keep grim balanced meanwhile DMS is 50 secs every hook and can completly destroy a game on the first mins. On a good killer it makes corrupt intervention meh at best.
Ill take noed every game to this perk. At least noed lets us get the gens done and gives us hope for a win.

DMS has a cooldown though.
It's not like the killer can spam-hook survivors, and refresh the duration on DMS.
But I am surprised you didn't mention Friends 'till the End when it comes to "over-used" killer perks atm.3 -
friends till the end is broken, at least for me. It doesn’t come up all the time I’m exposed but I get the noise que. I have gone down quit a few times because I wasn’t really paying attention.

I agree it's quite strong but killers don't have many options tbh. I personally use chase perks and get some really nice results but sometimes perks like DMS is needed to slow the game a little bit and DMS is good, so why not use it?
Good survivors know how to counter DMS by tapping another gen with less progress or just by leaving the gen for a few seconds the moment they realize the killer has Pain Res too. If you are paying attention, you can use DMS in your favor to 'protect' the gen against other regression perks.
Imo the problem is when the killer is using Grim Embrace with DMS because there's nothing the survivor on the gen can do to avoid it. Maybe the only acceptable nerf is to make it 40s/45s. If they ever change this perk to only work when survivors leave the gen by themselves, they are just nerfing killers perks even more.

I mention what i see everygame. and yes friends is used a lot, hex ruin also, but no where near Pain res + DMS
Cooldown or not, what happens when dms activates constantly on the last 3 gens? what happens than? plus it tells the killer what gen has the most pogress so he can get easy downs there.-2 -
Pain Res + DMS is a busted combo, but there is counterplay. You can see the aura of a survivor being hooked in time to let go for pain res, and when you know DMS is in play, you can go tap a 0% gen.
Requires a bit of coordination, but once you get hit with it once in soloq, if you're getting hit with it again in the same match it's on you.
The real stupid combo is DMS + Grim Embrace that a killer can activate at any time they want.

its annoying but believe it or not this is the healthiest slowdown so far.
anything else is either encouraging less healthy gameplay or is much more disproportionately weak on already weaker killers than it is on meta killers.
f/e if we had pop meta back, the killers that use it the best are high mobility killers for obvious reason.
overbrine meta wouldve been miserable genkick simulator slop
tinkerer/ruin/undying is a meta of blight/billy dropping every chase running to info procs on autopilot applying massive amounts of pressure.
deadlock meta is meta of camping/tunelling killers cuz slowdown works for free and gives them more time.
the only way this should change and the change would be for the better is if they figure out more healthy versions of these perks that are even less disproportionately powerful on killers of difference mobility/chase powers and which encourage even more healthier gameplay from killers.

If killer is using DMS just go to another gen with 0 progress and tap it.

Tell that to the whole team.
oh wait, i cant.

Youre serious? DMS blocked the gen for 50 secs and shows the killer a blocked gen and you want to compare it.to pop?
