give killer more then 4 perks slots

Raykor · December 2019

Hello I'm a main killer player and I have a suggestion but whould like to say demand to give killer more perk slot in consideration survivor can have up to 16 perks to help eachother, killer really need more perk slots if you wanna start to balance the game out, PLEASE consider give killer more perk slots.

I have 800 hours in dbd so I'm not a newcommer to suggest an chance

Killer perks are generally universal, as in they affect all survivors, if the requirements are met. Adding more perk slots would be very problematic balance wise. That's basically a free hex:ruin every game. And god, it is the most noninteractive perk in this game, that is in 90% of my games.

yes hex:ruin is mostly in every game but unless you have noticed the hex:ruin is like 90% of all my games spawning right next to where survivor start and guess what killer had ruin for ish 2 min of a match wow yes that is so good.... sometime not often you get good placement of it but VERY rarly and you talking about balancing hah ye not like borrowed time, adrenaline is way to op no.... it is a fact if they wanna start to balance things out killer do need more perks period!

No. Just no. It also doesn't work that way, 16 perks vs 4, most survivor's perks are to keep them alive, help with the chase. There aren't that many perks that speed up the game or affect the game all the time, like mentioned Ruin. Few survivor examples:

Borrowed time - is not active for the most portion of the game, works if you hang around the hook, and even if it works it affects you if you tunnel
Decisive strike - also doesn't affect the game, works when you're into one person too much
Chase/escape (mostly exhaustion) perks - help during chase, otherwise they don't speed gen progress or anything

From killer's perspective:

Dying light - works since the first hook and keeps on going, only getting better
Ruin - works passively, affecting every generator, until hex is broken
Pop goes the weasel - massive gen regression, technically affects all survivors, not just one
Thrilling tremors - can stop everyone for short period of time
Devour hope - (assuming you protect the totem) stacks tokens and works on every survivor you hit, not just one

See the difference? Survivor's perks mostly affect only themselves in a specific situation, if I have lithe, it will help me, not my teammate, therefore effectively you are worrying about 4 perks at a time.

Honestly I don't know if you're trolling, I hope so, but if not, I wonder about your 'skill level' so to speak. I have barely 200h and I don't feel like I need more perks as a killer. If I had 16, to make game 'fair' in your eyes, each game would turn into a slaughterhouse. Imagine: Ruin, DH, BBQ, Nurse's Calling, Dying Light, Thanatophobia, Pop... I'm half way through and it's already OP as f... Even 6 perks would be OP.

And last thing, adrenaline OP? Dude, are you high? Just add to that, that you're a fan of ebony mori and DH shouldn't be hex, that would be a good summary of quality of your post. I really hope you're a troll.

this too much to comment on so I'm kepping it short nobody is using dying light anymore that give one survivor 33% speed on repair and what you think that survivor will do then yes just gen rush and if they broke ruin the game over in 2 mineven worse if that survivor happend to have no mither and resiliance,

and what makes you think I mean for killer to have 16 perks LOL no I mean killer should have 5 or 6 perks ATLEAST.

and no I'm not high or trolling maybe you should play and think from killer view not only survivors but ofc all these hate comment is from survivors players only so ye I diden't expect any good comment was just hooping devs whould actually think from killers perspective too not only survivors
