Is this a bug?

And if it's not, why it's even allowed to begin with? There is absolutely no counter play to that.

    Definitely bug because ghouls hitbox after he vaults is super small xou would need to touch him so he could hit you (its even smaller than weskers).

    I see. So, in addition to having great mobility, excellent map control, and a guaranteed hit after his first dash (which leaves the survivor in a deep wound effect, slowing down the match), he also needs a hit after jumping over a pallet? Does that seem healthy for the game? It's one thing when we're talking about Wesker, 'cause Wesker's pretty balanced in my opinion, due to his "recovery time" after a failed second dash (or holding the second dash for too long)… but what price does Kaneki pays? Are we still in the same page? Are we still aiming for a healthier competitive and entertaining game? I can't help but ask myself that.

    That's the anti vault back mechanic while a killer is scampering survivors would slide into there hitbox and immediately vault through them so devs added it if you were near them while scampering you get hit cause Wesker has that too

  • shouldnt be like this tbh. right now it leads to unintended hits like in the clip where he wasn't even trying to vault back. with how generous the hitbox seems, you might be better off never dropping a pallet and only playing the mindgames lol.

    I think all killets that have dash ability that can vault have this hit after vault if survivor is close.

    They cant attack immediately after vaulting so thats why they have this very short attack and for now its only ghoul and wesker, other killers that can vault pallets were old chucky (when he had his manual scamper) and krasue which both of them can attact after vault and dont go through cooldown.

    Ghoul can vault fast when enraged but I dont think this thing is problem because it was nerfed (because of kidnap tech it was busted so devs make this hitbox super short), now for him to hit you if its not buged like now is that you would need to vault pallet or window and stay behind it or run into him after he vaulted to get hit by this and this goes for both wesker and ghoul, only difference is that ghoul is very buggy killer and some things are broken after big patches like new chapters, from what I read his power works at maximum of DBD capacity.

    No comments on the issue, Devs? Really?

    We're lucky enough they said

    after these bug fixes we'll closely monitor and determine if he needs further adjustments

    They really don't wanna nerf ghoul cause his killrate is average even though everyone hates going against him

    Wow… I did not expect this at all… I mean… it's clearly a bug… and not a single dev shows up to at least acknowledge the bug… Wow… really… Disappointed to say the least.
