Nerf Plague & Spirit Please Guys

Plague basically renders any healing perks or items useless. Healing other survivors or them healing you spreads the disease. Gens also get sick :). And after a short while if you don't purify you go to injured stage. Also if you do purify the Plague becomes soooo OP, with shooting blood of death from across at'least 5 meters.


Spirit is OP and broken.

    How can you nerf plague? She kinda weak already, rendering heal items useless? So? Not the most useful item to begin with, healing perks? Still not useless, cause she can down people, which is heal worthy, you really need to....she basically hits you can spread Illness which is curable and she gets a few moments of range damage when she uses them which waste time anyway, so she is fine, spirit is literally the easiest in chases, yeah she can gen grab nicely but she makes noise and grass etc still moves, so you can accept it as a hit or dodge, then use a pallet loop then a pallet vault loop, she will mostly try to stay in one spot to move around, look at the grass etc, then vault over and laugh in typical over powered survivor fashion, she deserves the ability to gen grab when chases for her are next to impossible for her except Vs new or dumb players or players that misjudge by accident but that's a hit, oh well

    Plague is already meh. Besides, she's spreading a plague, something you can't just use a first aid kit to heal

    Well, I think you need some tips playing against those killers @Metamatmem . And I think the people here won't be very helpful. First I want to tell you that everyone has problems at the start of the game because you don't know how the killers power works, or how a survivor can defend against a killer, I will send you the link from the DBD wiki, so you can see how their power works (I highly recommend you to check the wiki to have info about certain killer and how that killer works and their add-ons, so you can plan a strategy against him/her )

    Let's start with the Plague.

    https://deadbydaylight.gamepedia.com/Plague

    The plague is a killer that gets her power from survivor who purify themselves so if you don't want her to get power, don't purify yourself (the best survivors don't purify themselves). Also if you manage to loss her in a chase and you still have the infection at tier I (not broken status effect), walk, if you walk the infection won't grow. The objects remain infected for a limited time so if you see an infected gen you can a) search another gen, b) wait for the infection to be over in that gen or c) start repairing the generator anyway and get infected. Plague becomes slower when he is charging her power, so my advice is to run to closer loops (loops are places with pallets where you can run in circles around it) or places with walls/objects so as plague only can infect you if you're in front of her that at least will win your teammates and you, more tme.

    Now, let's talk about Spirit

    https://deadbydaylight.gamepedia.com/Rin_Yamaoka

    Spirit is a strong killer but her power can be used at your advantage. Generally Spirits use her power to become closer mid-chase wich is very useful (for them). When spirit is using her power (aka phasing) she only can see scratch marks (not the survivors) and with an add-on she can see blood pools as well; But basically when she is phasing she knows your position only if you run so if you start walking instead when she is phasing, spirit will be disoriented and there is a chance for you to win the chase.

    I hope I was able to be helpful.

    Spirit just recently got her nerfs. And Plague is not as good of a killer as you think she is. Learn to play against them, not advocate for more nerfs.

    Most posters here are killer mains so it’s hard to get any real feedback.

    I’m a rank 1 survivor as well and no killers need nerfed.

    Spirit was just “nerfed”. Sounds are bugged AND she doesn’t have a post phase lunge. She needs no more “nerfing”.

    Imagine wanting to nerf Plague. I think she’s strong in the right hands but not overbearing at all. She’s fine the way she is.

    Still waiting for Spirit to actually have real clues to know when she phases

    Plague is fine, why would you ever nerf her she's already doomed to not use her power since people never cleanse

  • Kees_T
    Kees_T Member Posts: 811

    Yeah, because ranks means something right? Especially survivor rank, that any not potato can easily achieve.

    Plague power relys on the survivors decisions to cleanse or not, if they don't, then she can't use her power. And spirit, like everyone is saying, she's already nerfed.

    Plague is perfectly fine as is. There should be a killer that counters healing perks and items.

    Spirit needs a tell during her phase but I don't know how they could do it at the moment and still keep her top tier. I'm not one for having killers drop tiers, but she is definitely unfun to play against right now (fun is subjective). She completely removes the basis of what makes a PvP game which is the interaction between both players and the interaction for survivors just isn't there, you just guess. No skill involved.

    Honestly I'd say if she needed changing she'd need a full ground-up rework like Freddy (for the love of god don't make her slow the game down)
