Will the killer Adepts ever be changed back?

I remember now. My bad, I was wrong about it only being merciless. But the description of the achievement always specified it having to be a merciless, so :|

They could just easily change the description I agree. That couldn't be too hard.

There's a ranking rework on the Dev's roadmap, so it may result in getting merciless more easily.
Anyway I hope they will change it to 4 sacrifices / kills.
It wouldn't be the first time they change a trophy requirement : "Deranged Pursuit" was changed after Legion's rework because it required to down a survivor in Feral Frenzy, which is no longer possible.
Otherwise getting merciless with neither add-on nor non-specific perk is a real pain.
I only managed to have 4 iridescent with Legion (epic trial by the way) but it's the only adept I got as I started this game after the ranking change.

I agree, I would rather they just change it back to what it was.

Medic wasn't bugged for me... then again, I probably got it before it was bugged.

I think we all can agree that the best time to try for your adept is at the start of the season.
That way the pip requirements are not as stringent.

I see... : P

You people need to keep trying because it is not impossible.
The adepts on console are in a good place.
Good luck!

tfw you give the hatch to a survivor and get:
Match result:
Merciless killer

Illogical but technically possible

I'm surprised not one dev has even commented on this. What is there to hide?

I just miss things from time to time, although I'm pretty sure we've mentioned this a couple times in the past.
The adepts weren't actually changed (at least, not since the original ones where you just needed to unlock their teachable perks). The requirement was and still is that you need to get a merciless victory. The only difference is that what merciless victory actually is has changed. During the victory cube, that just meant killing all four survivors. Nowadays, that means double pipping.
It's not guaranteed to stay this way forever. It could change in the future.

Why killers need to double pip, but survivors don't?
0 -
Because their adept achievement are (and always have been) based on escaping. Again, the conditions for unlocking the adept achievements have not changed. It has always been based on escaping and merciless victories. The only thing that has changed is the definition of what makes a merciless victory.

But why was it decided that killers needed a merciless victory to get the achievement in the first place?
Seems off to have survivors get it by just escaping and killers need to win really hard

So, basically a merciless victory before was a 4k and now is a double pip? I'm confused. Is that what you're saying?

Yep, that's exactly what he is saying. Before you could just camp 4 guys and get a merciless victoy, now you must be lucky or try really hard to get one.

Right, that's exactly it.
The condition has always been and still is "get a merciless victory".
A merciless victory always meant a double pip. You used to double pip by killing all four, but that changed with the emblem system. That's the bit that's different.
Likewise, the survivors have always had to escape to get theirs. There's no varying degrees of escaping. Either you escape or you don't. There's no such thing as a merciless escape.

The thing is:
I got my adept freddy achievement when 1 survivor disconnected and killed everyone on 1st hook. The game took 2 minutes ( so no double pipping).
And I never played with the old system, only the emblem one. I bought dbd in the middle of january of 2019.
Sorry if I'm wrong about the implementation date of the emblem system, but I think that it wasn't implemented at least this year.
This is what brought me up to confusion.

The emblem system came out in March of 2019: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/52295/
If you started in January 2019, you started playing around the final days of the victory cube.

Oops, my bad then. Sorry.

Thanks for the imput although I do hope you guys change it back to just a 4k somehow. Would be way less tedious.

Just change it to ruthless.

There's no such thing as a merciless escape.
