How does diminishing returns affect equal values
what happens if i run do no harm which gives 50% healing speed for 1 hook state and i run botany knowledge which gives 50% healing speed so which perk will receive diminishing returns if both modifiers are equal in value and there is no biggest modifier value will both not be given diminishing returns or will one be given…

The nerfs to Blight don't matter if they don't nerf the rat and the crow which are the main problem
As I said in the title, making Blight 4.4 won’t change a thing—it’ll still be problematic and powerful, and experienced players know this. Blight’s main problem has always been the Rat and Crow add-ons; with these add-ons, the survivor has no reaction time, guaranteeing a guaranteed hit due to the absurd mobility these…

Suggestion: Scaling Effects Based on SWF Group Size
(I am not very good at English, so I used a translation tool.) This is a suggestion to introduce mechanics that scale depending on the number of survivors playing in a Survive With Friends (SWF) group. The intention is to create gradual differences in the Trial depending on whether the group size is 2, 3, or 4 players.…

Killer identity should be revealed to everyone when first survivor starts chase.
Responding to Community Stream earlier, where survivor perks (ty btw) and killer identity are immediately shown to the survivors. As everyone else has said this hurts stealth killers the most. I understand the point made that most killers announce themselves very quickly (TR, Lullaby, mobility, killer interactables) but…

Diminishing returns effects
Ok so I read the patch notes and they were kind of vague about what exactly diminishing returns effects. So I assume if I stack pwyf and batteries included that is effected. But what if I bring pwyf and windstorm for wraith? Or two trap setting speed addons for hag? Does it effect if I bring 4 window vault speed perks? (Is…

Can we please at least have killer bots in customs
I wanna test out some builds on the survivor side of things but people on oceanica servers seem to not care for this PTB in the future can we at least have 1 killer bot so we are able to test perks and stuff <3

All PTB Killer buffs and Tweaks Revealed
ContentKiller UpdatesThe Blight Decreased The Blight's default movement speed to 4.4 m/s (was 4.6 m/s). Breaking a Downed Pallet now reduces Rush tokens down to 2 below maximum, and resets current Rush token recharge to 0%. Includes basic-break and special-break Killer actions. Power description updated to reflect change.…

I like this
The diminishing returns are a good idea and it doesn"t completly ruins the builds, yes they get weaker but you can still play with that and i hope for better desing choices unlike fast track which is horribly desinged and should rework completly so that the survivors would have to actually do something while killers can…

Feed Back For Killer Buffs (Not Nurse/Blight Nerfs)
First I will go in order of what I think should change/stay the same/be added for each other the killer changes on this list. The Doctor: Overall the changes seem good but I would argue to make even more of the detonation delay base kit, perhaps 0.65 or even 0.6 and then just heavily nerf the add ons. He feels too add on…

Disconnects in Endgame Incorrectly Count as Escapes / Lack of Proper Penalty Differentiation
Hello, I would like to report an issue regarding how disconnections (DCs) are handled during the endgame phase. Currently, when a survivor disconnects near the end of a match (especially when they are about to be killed), the system may register the result in a way that does not clearly reflect a disconnection. In some…

Diminishing perk stacking makes sense, but it diminished the fun factor of builds.
Dbd obviously has to keep coming out with perks and it's going to be difficult to come out with balanced perks while also making sure they balance out with all the other stackable perks, so putting the diminishing stacking factor on it is essentially a bandaid so they can keep coming out with perks without having to worry…

Allow us to put BP into killswitched Characters
My plan for the bloodmoon was to p100 legion, and while I understand and agree with the killswitch its incredibly frustrating that during the biggest BP event of the year I am unable to invest in a character I enjoy playing As of right now we can open up a killswitched character, but if you click the bloodweb it will send…

(Concept idea) - Could Frieren be a killer in DBD?
I've been thinking about this during the Grimore when I saw The Judgement having a spear as a weapon and thought (maybe Frieren can be a legendary skin for the Judgement). And that ultimately made me think about the idea of what happens if Frieren enters the Fog. If you don't know who Frieren is, she is from Frieren beyond…

Any goofy play styles people do?
By goofy I'm referring to things like "xenokitty" where xenomorph chases survivor flashlights or basement Bubba guarding his basement chest. I tried basement bubba don't like it. xenokitty can be funny if people catch on for it. I've "created" something I've not seen anyone else do (yet) that I call guard dog dracula. ONLY…

How to help stop killers to tunnel
BHVR please, if we nerf gen speed perks, I pretty sure killers will less likely tunnel, camp, and slug, Im a survivor main that plays a lot of killer so when I lose a gen before I even hook someone my mind set is OH OK I’m going back to hook cuz gens are just gonna fly anyway.

Blight Nerfs are GOATED sofar
After having seen people play with the current Blight nerfs, I can say that is has been an absolutely great success!

Offerings Could Be So Much Better
Survivor main from way back with a few thousand hours, apologies if this is discussed elsewhere, I don’t spend much time on the forums. Happy to be redirected to other discussions on this issue or any dev responses. Offerings kind of suck. Most players want BPs as a priority. Therefore, most players exclusively play BP…

Autohaven wreckers yard.
This map needs a pallet reduction immediately. The amount of safe pallets on this map is actually insane.

Why is this map so insanely safe? Not very…

GENERAL PTB FEEDBACK
Hello y'all, hope you're all doin' well. As many of you guys know, this PTB promised us all a ton of new changes which were REALLY necessary since the game itself felt quite frustrating to play; no matter if you were playing as a survivor or as a killer, the game ITSELF was frustrating. Now, why do I think this changes are…

Additional Buff Proposal for “The Doctor”
Currently, The Doctor’s movement speed while channeling his Shock Therapy attack is 3.08 m/s. This corresponds to 70% of 4.4 m/s, which is a remnant from when The Doctor previously had two separate modes: Shock Mode Treatment Mode At that time, his movement speed in Shock Mode was 4.4 m/s, which is why the current value is…

Unable to play with The Shape or The Cenobite on PTB

In previous PTBs, The Cenobite (and probably the Shape, didn't play last PTB) was given for free to all players on the PTB. This would not be a big issue if Michael didn't have a addon I would like to test…

I thought Community Outfits Were Free Only?
The reason for the question is because I seen Singularity community outfit being sold for real money. Unless I’m out of the loop.

PTB scoreboard HUD: A new discussion to a universal solution for stealthy killers
ill keep this short, but as i see many people discuss the new TAB menu displaying teammate perk loadouts and the killers power icon, a lot of the criticism stems from being able to see who the killer is straight off the bat. now this has pretty much been normalized via killer powers appearing the moment the trial starts…

Any Other Killers Getting Buffed Soon?
With the roster of killer buffs we got this PTB (with some of them being more effective than others), are there any plans to spread this initiative to other killers such as Hag, Pig, or really anyone else? Just Curious :)

[Feedback] Give Killers Crouch or an emote so we can teabag&BM survivors
It's only fair. The game is toxic as it is, so adding this would enhance the quality of life as a killer. I play both roles about 50/50….but yeah I'd say I get the most BM when I play killer. So now I just walk back and forth and nod my head. It's not quite as good as traditional FPS tea bagging though so I think it would…

I can't test on PTB because barely anything is unlocked
I want to test the killer changes, but on PTB it only unlocked the characters I bought through steam DLC. Characters I bought with shards or auric cells are still locked and I cannot test them. I know I get 6000 cells for free, but that is not enough for all characters.

Please stop with the "Give half an addon, nerf the addon by half"
It's so irritating when a weak killer like Doctor gets a "Buff" by giving them half of the most popular addon and then nerfing the addon. When a killer is as weak as Doctor or Skull Merchant or Trapper you don't need to do this, it's pointless. A flat 0.05 second less delay on Doctor's power isn't going to change anything…

the animatronic survivor buffs are actually a killer buff

Improved (Maybe) Way to See Team Perks
The new thing they added to be able to see your teammates perks is definitely an improvement, but I think it was not that greatly implemented. I say that because sometimes you need to know what perks your teammates have right then and there, but it's not always viable to have to stop and open up the tab menu to see their…

F Tier Killers
So explain to me why I hear that some of the weaker killers are getting buffed and I get super excited because low tier killers are really fun to play then I check the patch notes are zero buffs for setup killers like Trapper or Hag, and the only other setup killer to get changed not buffed was Skull Merchant getting new…

Wesker Fix Patch 9.5.2 Issue’s
To start off, I’m so very thankful for BHVR fixing some of the drastic issues that were extremely problematic to Wesker and his mechanics. However few things must be addressed and i’m doing this out of refining Wesker to help others and myself enjoy the Killer to the fullest extent without frustrations. Firstly, Wesker’s…

The Problem with Springtraps power on the Survivor Side, and potential fix (BATTERY ISN'T THE ISSUE)
I was dissapointed with changes to Spring-traps power. Battery was never a problem, the problem is there is no incentive to see where he is. He isn't concealed in stealth that often, and you run from him anyway when he gets too close and traversing the doors is just too risky, battery has nothing to do with any of those…

PTB is extremely buggy and requires maintenance
Hello, this is my 1st post so I genuinely apologize for the scruffiness of this post in advance if it seems disorganized, but I wanted to be able to address a couple of things within the PTB that I have encountered within about 2 hours of playing it. Consistent crashes I have not been able to go more than 2 games in a row…

Fast vaults, I don´t get it
Hey there I hope you had a good easter days, I have a short question, because I don´t know if this is intended or not. From time to time when I play Killer I stumble above the following szenario. A Survivor stands close to a window like in shack and seemingly with no effort of running they do a fast vault without a single…

The Ghoul Nerf
As a Survivor but also Killer and I played ghoul often since release, I think he needs a nerf. First of he can hold after his first leap his second leap way to long, it should be less time and after he leaps to an already marked survivor he has a to short cooldown and can literally just stay at the survivor not giving the…

Survivors need a proper Education / Tutorial
I can't say how many times I've been in a match where a teammate runs the killer near a hooked survivor, not to mention going down near the hook. I feel like in most cases survivors don't do that on purpose. Rather, there is a lack of education and/or general game sense / awareness with so many people. It kind of feels…

New Patch Notes: What are they aiming for the win rate for killers to be?
It seems like the amount of buffs to killers and hard nerfs to survivors continues as time goes on? The win rate is already between 55-60% for killers, leaning towards the higher side. If we continue to drive survivors into the ground, why are we expecting them to stick around?

Seriously scared for DBD - Hackers
Over the past 3 days I have gone against probably 10-15 hackers. These are all bot accounts. I actually felt I was being targeted so I changed to Anon mode, added matchmaking delay, hid my name etc. Still happening. At first it was all doctors with a full hex build that could teleport over pallets. Then I got a string of…

Since Haste perks can't be abused with stacking anymore, can we buff them back? Unbound really should be 10% in my personal opinion

Killer Buff and Nerf PTB Changes
How are we feeling about the proposed PTB changes to killer? I mostly play survivor, probably 80/20 surv/killer split, and I must say I’m feeling disappointed that some characters got barely anything changed: the ones that stand out the most to me are Skull Merchant and GF. I was hoping we’d get something like this for GF:…
