Splinters

I recently purchased all the “cash characters” during the birthday event, but now I’m seeing something kinda odd. Why does the killer bloodweb keep spawning these expensive “splinters” which allow me to play as the perkless version of a killer I already own? There have been a couple times when I was cornered into spending bloodpoints on them, which was a total waste. Is there any way to make them stop appearing?

    They should stop appearing after you own the character. I haven't seen splinters for many months due to owning every killer. Sounds like a bug to me.

    Ahhh, I see. Thank you! I’ll go re-post this in the bug reports section then.

    Yep it is a bug. One person on this forums still gets them to this day (even on GF)

    Wow! Well looks like I get to join the club. It hasn’t happened yet, but I’m looking forward to getting a splinter for a character in that same character’s bloodweb! Lol

    My favorite is getting Splinters in webs, when I already have the killer for it.


    That's my favorite waste of space, in fact, Splinters are a waste of BP and space, that could be something way better!

    I bought all DLC's with money through the Xbox store. Plague is the only killer I got with shards. Myers I bought with auric cells through the game's store. I still get Black Splinters in all my blood webs. It's really annoying, particularly because it eats up the ultra rare drop in my blood web.

    I really hope devs look into this and fix it. If I own the character I shouldn't be getting shards. Doesn't matter how I bought them.

    I bought Myers through the PlayStation store and haven’t gotten any of his splinters since. Everyone else I bought with auric cells (except for those you get with iridescent shards), and splinters still spawn for them. I wonder if the issue lies with the auric cells.

    @yobuddd Well someone had mentioned to me a while ago that prestiging those characters will make it stop, but I don't want to do that just yet because I still have add-ons and offerings I'd like to use on Myers.

    @thesuicidefox I’m curious to know if that works when you get around to it. The only killer I’ve prestiged so far is the Hag, so there must be some other factor for why I don’t see splinters for Myers anymore.

    I will try to remember to let you know but it won't be anytime soon. I have Myers at level 50 but I barely ever play him. I just want to use my pink add-ons for Evil Incarnate achievement, and then his adept. After that I will probably prestige him, but I'm most likely going to wait until after the next DLC chapter.

    Hopefully the devs just flat out fix this by then so I don't even need to bother.
