These are not official yet, but I'm guessing the haven't changed how long survivor can't vault after being shocked.

    What do you mean by WILL BE MISSED. I haven't seen a doc for a long long time now.

    ... 3 second CD. So wait - shock, and then... survivor stuns you with and/or drops pallet. Shock effect is 2 seconds, cooldown is 3.. that means a survivor can recover from shock, stand in the right spot to prevent pallet block, and drop it with 1 second left on doc CD. ######### is this game anymore.

    Survivor stun is 2.5 seconds, shock therapy takes 1 second after activation to start taking effect, therefore that makes 3.5 seconds so Doc will still have half a second to get in a hit before they can do anything. Which isn't that good

    I’m trying to stay optimistic and hoping that the devs just badly worded the notes or that they’ll make some changes when the patch goes live, but it’s getting very hard to do so knowing how these devs are. I’ve been playing Doc since September 2017, and these changes seem very disappointing. I won’t be surprised if Doctor receives more nerfs after the PTB just because ranks 15-20 still struggled a little bit. It’s obvious at this point that Freddy was a fluke and that every Killer will most likely go the way of Legion and Nurse.

    Ya know, I wanted to be hopeful when I read "cooldown on swings". Damn me for thinking BHVR were gonna treat a killer nice eh?

    The first step is denial. Here, have a bag. Remember to completely enclose it over your face until your breathing sounds exactly like Sally's. It should be quick-ish. : (

    Ah, I've cracked the code finally. Freddy was meant for an absolute rework and came out in a much better spot, whereas every other killer that has gotten an "addon" rework has come out completely gutted or trashed. Legion got Legioned again, Nurse has gone from top killer to mid tier, Doc is getting gutted based on these stun times alone, the only outlier is Spirit, who suffers more from a bug WHICH THEY STILL HAVEN'T FIXED ALONG WITH WRAITH than from the rework itself.
