Waiting out my break and reading these posts aren't making me want to jump back and play as Killer again admittedly. Sadly it seems like something only a really long break will resolve (possibly up to a year), while we wait on the balancing issues to be sorted at a base minimum.

If I ever go back to playing Killer after my break, I will from now on. Nobody deserves to die like that. RIP Kobe.

Rank doesn't matter in the game right now, there's no incentive to Rank up either other than to have unfun and troublesome games. There's so much that needs to be resolved with matchmaking right now that I'm in the middle of a break away from the game until it will eventually get sorted (along with other issues).

Nice to hear you're enjoying the game still at that level, however I am also high rank and do not enjoy it at all.

Anything to remove how ridiculously OP they are would be fine with me, but the fact that they can just as easily be found in a trial with perks to bolster them such as Ace in the Hole, Plunderer's, etc makes removing them far easier to do to make an impact.

Survivor main comment.

Toolboxes removed from the game, Prove Thyself hard nerf, Gen speed completion increase in time needed to complete. Fair game then.

As you said in another thread, the ranking system should readjust those players accordingly. If a Survivor cannot hit a Skill Check, then they do not deserve to play against/with better players. The player who has friends could just simply make an alt account if they cared about the Rank they are at on their main account.…

I'm sorry, but it's only going to get worse from here. It's been this way for a long time and I don't think its going to change anytime soon. It's terrible.

Peanits I know you are a Red Rank Survivor yourself. I've seen you play with the likes of Farmer John, Puppers, etc. Surely you know how easy it is right now to just power through Ruin, or even disable it right? You can see how hard Killers are throwing themselves just to fulfill the Emblem System and now its been made…

I say the same to the poor Killers that entertain the system too.

Glad I have a VR headset now and ditching this blatant Killer bullying, because Survivor is so mind-numbingly easy to play now. Not even funny.

100%.

Fine, but I'm not playing Killer again until they do something good instead of frequent nerfs without the Devs actually playing the game at a high level to justify said changes, because they are clearly out of touch with the current game state.

This.

You know that good survivors will actually do gens so that this is useless right? You know - one guys gets chased and then the other three pop a gen? No? Try playing at the high ranks as Killer.

Typical Survivor main comment. 😂

Agreed. I've been avoiding mentioning Survivor-sided bias for the devs - but this is really showing how they are assessing the game. I don't feel like they are playing high rank Killer with some of the comments I've seen about the role.

I M P O S S I B L E S K I L L C H E C K S: Perks: Unnerving Presence, Distressing, Overcharge, Ruin/Huntress' Lullaby Add-ons: Calm III, Order III (Purples) Basically what MegaWaffle said above. Most fun build in the game for me!

Pepega moment from both Killer and teammates that game lol.

I use it as a means to signal that a save can be made. I always use Kindred because I'm sick of teammates refusing to save me because they are too scared of the chance that the person on the hook MIGHT be being camped. I use the wave as a passive-aggressive 'hurry up' with it equipped.

This is what happens at Red Ranks, but I don't think enough people have seen play at that level to understand the devastation it causes yet.

I do this with Kindred equipped everytime as long as I know that the Killer isn't a stealth Killer.

This data is useless. It only mentions kills, not the end of match result - e.g. Entity Displeased, Brutal/Ruthless/Merciless Killer. Kills are not what ultimately decides how well a killer has done, and as previously mentioned by Peanits (I believe) - you should take these stats with a grain of salt.

I'm saying that people will use Moris as soon as possible, and won't stall the game.

Not everyone cares about XP/BP though. People will just use it to try and end the game early, and swing a massive advantage their way. I for one, do not care about any 'bonus' from playing with my food (without the perk that is).

Nobody at higher ranks run those perks because they aren't helpful throughout the game, maybe Devour in some kind of build. Moris end the game too soon and are an issue in their own right (same goes for keys).

Yeah, it just seems like an early game rush meta would occur, much like Otz's old aggressive Legion before their last nerf.....or Basement Bubba lol.

I was with you until you said slugged or chased lol.

Oh right. I still don't think DS deserves a buff, the perk is too strong already - but it doesn't need a nerf either. Just a change in how the perk functions as Pulsar mentioned.

Errrm....I thought DS could already be saved if you didn't hit the Skill Check (i.e. no input during the animation), or did that get nerfed too? Also this looks like more of a nerf than a buff to me (not like we need a DS buff anyways, but that's just my perspective on the perk).

Love it not_Queen. 😁

I would love it if Kindred and Ruin were made as base set to their respective roles, as I'm sure many people have requested before. Unfortunately, removing perks from the game entirely isn't something that really happens in DBD.

I'm wondering if it will happen myself. Spine Chill isn't completely appreciated for what it does by everyone yet, and the fear of reverting back to Billy, Spirit, etc might prevent people from adding it to their current perk lists. Would very interested to see what the outcome would be if it did happen though. Would…

That's me, but against GF instead. I go full potato for some reason, I don't even know why lol.

Me too. 🤞

ok boomer

It's a rework. His power has completely changed in how it works.

Every shock is a guaranteed tier, tier 3 always reveals location - shock a Survivor twice and they'll be forced to waste time to stop revealing where they are to you. He doesn't have stances anymore, which prevents the slow and tedious switching. They can change addons and tweak them accordingly to help with his power. PTB…

That's a sin against Shirtless Myers! 😯

Same!!!! 😊

Yeah, but that's what testing is for. Hopefully it won't make that big an impact as you're basically getting Whispers on steroids every 60 seconds. Puts a damper on my previous statement on pallet looping a little bit mind.

OHHHHHHHHH BOI.

That was what Peanits was saying the devs are planning to implement in another thread earlier basically, obviously he could get buffed/nerfed during the PTB to accommodate his power changing.
