    Well guess what, BHVR listened to your whining and buffed Calm Spirit! Now you don’t have to get better and learn the counters!

    No they aren't. If he has any reason to suspect there is someone nearby and yet isn't hearing screaming, he knows to check a locker.

    Basically when I usually play survivor, I try to hide but since the Doctor prevents this... I usually pallet loop him since there's tons of pallets. Then later the killer tells me I'm s*** but again it's almost impossible to hide from the Doctor. I know to hide in lockers but good Doctors can read your mind and check them in areas where you last been in. I honestly think that if the Doctor is going to buffed, the developers will probably have to rework him entirely.

    The Doctor can be annoying with the madness, but I would take him any day over Freddy and the Pig.

    Get rid of his insane terror radius proccing his shock therapy half the map away and going through floors/ceiling cough Gideons cough and he'll be fine since really good docs don't need that to get 4 sacs on most maps.

    So what?

    Do you belong to those who believe that it's the aura-reveal that makes the Doctor powerful?

    Not over powerful just the screaming is annoying the volume of the screams on a survivor needs a nerf. Don’t care about the reading abilities

    I don't understand why they put the no screaming on Calm Spirit and not Iron Will.

    Anyone here thinking that the Calm Spirit buff will nerf Doctors clearly has no idea what a good Doctor is.

    Current state - Dr makes you scream. 
    With Calm Spirit Change - Dr no make scream

    Noone said it's going to make the Dr. #########, but it's definitely working against him. That is clear.

    The Doctor is meant to be annoying. He is meant to ruin your stealth game. That does not make him a cancer or OP. If you know the counters, the Doctor is rather easy to get around. That said, I love playing the Doctor for the simple fact he is annoying to survivors. He is my screw with everyone killer. And honestly, the Calm Spirit buff will not impact a good Doctor very much.

    So you just run Calm Spirit all the time in case you maybe get a Doctor? lol

    He was my first killer I main’d on Xbox. But on some maps with some add ons and offerings, he’s just stupid and the counters won’t work.

    Plus even on the other maps, it’s luck. If you’re the first person sent into madness, he might focus you until you’re in madness 3 and then you’re boned all match. 

    I prefer to out everyone into stage 2 then I start attacking. After that it’s impossible to hide.

    Doctor looks more like a loanshark or a bouncer after his new cosmetics. The house always wins.

    Dr is pretty lame against avg players.

    I rotate through all killers when I play excluding Dr and Freddy.

    I mean, it'd be a different story if Nurse's didn't work when snapping out of it, but apparently when I am doing so it counts as me healing myself sooo...

    Not to mention Doctor is extremely powered on Gideons due to his bugged ability to increase madness on both upstairs and downstairs at the same time.

    Calm Spirit needed a buff to begin with, and I'm also easily triggered by the screams tbh. Other than that Doctor is mid-low tier, but he has no real counter to any of his ability. It's not like people are going to run Calm Spirit everygame because not everygame is there a doctor.

    I am so happy that one of my brethren managed to tick you off to the point of coming here and posting.

    I play the DOC. Whispers to find you even though i dont have to with the doc - its to speed up the locating and bringing to madness part. Once whispers goes off i tend to stay using distressing to bring you to madness till you scream or till you run. Then i follow sometimes in treatment just to make it even more difficult. Then i smack you. You run to pallet to do your pallet loop attempt. You run around the pallet thinking and i going to do your dance, which i wont do and shock you in treatment till you run or are in level 3 at which point your are foogled cos you cant heal ect.. Then i smash the pallet. One pallet down. Rinse and repeat if you wish. I eventually catch you and hook you. Then i camp you till you die. So enjoyable.

    Need some salt for my fries please.

    Dont mean to be toxic like this but after being screwed over by SWF for so, so, long i find pleasure any way i can.

    Occasionally i get humiliated but all that tells me is that you are most likely all using coms and coordinating efforts or are beyond my skill level so chapo.

    Exactly it makes more sense logically but probably because they wanted calm spirit to be better

    I cant see the devs' darlings wanting to use a perk slot for the possibility of the killer being a doc. However, i am sure the Devs have made sure that a person with calm spirit or who freq selects calm spirit will be served up to you if you play doc. That i can see happening

    I like playing against the doctor. One of the few killers that I actually panic and what not against. Makes the game a lot of fun.

    Thats what survivors are trying to make us believe in the coutnless threats. They dont actually want to loop, but they cant play stealthy because of doc, so they use their usual crutches and run in circles :wink:

    A large percentage of players do not play stealthy, refuse to play stealthy or are actively seeking out the killer with their trolling tools as soon as the game starts. Doc, or no Doc. I assume that if the player is wearing bright clothes and brings a flashlight that they have nearly no intention of doing gens.

    If you hear the click, click, click and see tbagging as soon as the game starts or when you find them then i avoid you as you are intent on trolling, baiting and looping. Nice try. I will leave you to chase the others. I do not care if i only get one kill by means of slugging and fending off the wolfpack with their tools but somebody is going to die.

    Because calm spirit need a buff and Iron will doesn't?

    I love the Doctor. Playing him and against him. I like the challenge with the random skillchecks everywhere on the screen. :) apart from that you can see him as rarely as hag, freddy or wraith. :(

    If anything Iron Will isn’t true to its description. It doesn’t keep you quiet in the dying state, but somehow Calm Spirit will??
