    To start off Keep both as is. I rarely see Keys and rarely see Moris. Plus Moris are nice to look at and Keys are counterable. Kill that survivor first.

    Rework moris I miss clicked

    Still want to see the mori animations that the devs put time and effort into

    If anything rework the green key. I was thinking that it can open hatch, but have it take ?? seconds to open. I also like moris :)

    Rework Moris

    Since I have to choose one of those answers, rework Moris. Moris are far more common than Keys, especially the pink Mori is found way more often in Bloodwebs than the green one.

    But honestly, rework both. Moris should not give the ability to make the Match an easy Win and Keys should focus more on Aura Read with the Pink Key being the only Item that would allow 1 (and exactly one) Survivor to escape via Hatch (plus Rework of many Add Ons, especially the ones that lets you keep the Key).

    I like both as they are tbh, I don't think either one needs changing at the moment

    I agree, I'd personally prefer a rework of both mechanics

  • YaiPa

    Both are tied to achievements, since they can't change achievements the eventual changes wouldn't be much strong.

    I didn't think about that aspect

    I assume from all the balance posts that this is an unpopular opinion, but I am personally a fan of rare, overpowered mechanics as long as they are actually rare. I think they add flavour and variety to the game.

    The only thing that needs to be reworked about either keys or moris, in my opinion, is that neither item is as rare as it should be. The only change I'd like to see made is for them to actually become "ultra rare".

    Rework Keys

    Keys can be fine... they just need more skilled use. Then again, Survivor needs an overhaul as a whole... playing as Oni in red ranks just shows how strong they are.

    And where's the Remove/Rework both? cuz that's what I want.

  • manzari
    manzari Member Posts: 50

    So I think keys should take time to open hatches, with lots of noises, and skill checks, similar to repairing a gen (not that long tho), and only the survivor carrying the key should be able to escape with it.

    Moris can be about bloodpoints instead of ending the game too fast. they should be only available after the second hook, for each mori, you get 100% more bloodpoints in all categories, that's 4 times more bloodpoints with Ebony for all survivors morid and that's what makes Ebony Moris Ultra Rare. that way Ebony Moris won't be a guaranteed a depip for all surivivors and it's even better for killers.

    Rework Moris

    The way I see the problem is even if you make them harder to acquire or weaken the effect they're still going to be strong. Also they're easily stockpiled so you never have to worry about running out.

    In my opinion Ultra Rare items should be limited to how many you can have and expire from your inventory within a week. That would solve mori's being spammed during events. I wouldn't even mind if they were slightly more common on the bloodweb because at max you're only going to have a limited number + you have to use them soon as you get them.

    Main thing I'd do specifically for mori is require 2 hooks for Ebony + if you cancel it the mori goes on a 20 second CD to avoid spamming it and keeping someone in place.


    Also clarification - I want both reworked you just didn't have the option for that so I picked Mori's which I see as more of an issue.

    They are both fine, except maybe moris could have their VFX updated and Trapper and Wraith's be changed.

    A killer once killed a guy that had the key. I went to the place were he died, picked up the key and left. That’s not really a solution/counter.

    but I agree with you though, both are rare thus not really a problem.

    Mori's can be really relaxing for killers in the red ranks


    Keys are something else, but fine

    Considering the amount of threads and comments about how problematic they are, it's quite interesting what a large proportion of people seem to be totally fine with both.

    Rework both at once or don't touch either. This isn't even about balance, I just don't want half the forum to be "devs are so X sided they reworked Y but not Z!".

  • projecteulogy

    There has to be a middle ground. I do like the suggestion someone made about first having to be hooked twice for moris. it was actually pretty problematic running keys for the Deplete 8 Keys challenge. Even after using up the green key i was tunneled because the killer thought it was a purple. So taking keys gets you tunneled most of the time anyway in my case. which is fair paranoia i guess lol

    I finally found the key the other day. Still not sure what they are for or what they open.

    That's it? Don't they open themselves?

    Kinda useless when you can't find it either.

    I honestly could care less about either.

    You bring a key? Fine. Don't expect sympathy.

    You bring a Mori? Fine. Expect to be looped.

    It's the same if I bring one. I expect to have to counter looping when I bring a Mori, and I don't expect hatch (I never do) when I bring a key.

    I think Moris are a bigger problem. But yeah, please rework both.

    Keep both like they are. Or maybe do a slight rework/nerf with keys, since they're items and so easy to take with you into a match. However as killer I really rarely even see survivors escaping through the hatch... Both of them bring versatility to the game

    Saying Mori's are the bigger problem is a bit of an understatement. Imagine going into the game as a killer, not camping, not tunneling and playing the game in a normal way. Survivors are better at hiding and then two gens are left and they all hop in. Meanwhile imagine using a mori and just killing people as soon as they're unhooked. I feel as if both should be reworked but due to achievements they can't. I feel like keys should only be able to open the hatch if all the gens were completed and mori's should only work if they're on death hook.
