Don’t Nerf Nurse!

I honestly don’t really care about the add on changes because GOOD nurses , don’t heavily rely on add ons anyways. What I DO care about is that the devs nerfed her base kit. Nurse is an extremely difficult killer to master , and all the hours that people have committed to challenging themselves and mastering a difficult killer is now thrown down the drain. Most people’s problem was OMEGA , so just change that! Please don’t nerf one of the only killers that stand a chance against the BEST survivor teams.

    So being rewarded for learning a difficult killer , is something that should’ve been addressed? Her add ons yes, but nurse herself no. Let’s be honest you can’t even compare the learning curve between Freddy and nurse. Nurse didn’t need what Freddy needed. Btw this isn’t “ balancing her” it’s NERFING her. There’s no even exchange for these downsides, in high rank games these seconds count especially against somewhat decent survivors.

    Balancing nurse and nerfing nurse are one in the same.

    Shes still probably going to be the best killer even with the nerf.

    At least there will be some counterplay.

    No killer should be way more powerful than the rest, the reason everyone thinks Nurse or Spirit needs to be played in red ranks is because they are so much more powerful.

    Nurse in her current state literally negates almost all counter play for survivors, the changes proposed may seem a little steep but I think she will still be in a good spot once people adjust to it.

    At the end of the day it is not a one way show. Counter play needs to be available on both sides.

    Basically all of you are saying there should be no trade off here , and it’s fine one of the only viable killers gets nerfed to the ground. Well round of applause survivors you win , you complained and whined so much that you got what you want.

    No, what I am saying is Survivors need counter play to survive and killers need counter play to kill. Nurse in her current state is very powerful and I think with the upcoming changes she will still be in a good spot just not over powered. Try the PTB and see what you think.

    Jeezus, calm down.

    1: How do you know crying survivors were the cause of it? If nurse was balanced, we wouldn't be talking about this. Devs realized she had little counterplay, so here we are now.

    2: The ptb isn't even live yet, so save the complaints for it. Say how much worse she is when you actually see the new her in action. You're jumping the gun extremely early right now. Hell, her status might not change, it's only a new mechanic to her blinks to give survivors an actual chance to survive against a god nurse, instead of it being "I play nurse, you dead now."
