These perks are considering the massive SOLO QUEUE survivor nerf in the next update (take my comment with a grain of salt-I have not played the ptb myself-and i am relying on videos from the most skilled content creators and it looks rough). These perks are a one time use and are extremely situational considering each…

piggy backing off of my grimoire perks for survivors mentioned in comments earlier. Grimoire: Book of Occult Studies) has the following affects v. grimoire: BOOS goes on cool down between each use for 60/50/40 seconds If cleansing/booning a dull totem perk Grimoire: BOOS changes to Divination: Grants booning speed by…

Survivor Blessings: Spirits bless you every time you put their soul to rest. after cleansing/booning a totem; your scratch marks, grunts of pain, and pools of blood are hidden for 5/15/25 seconds and gives you one token. if hit by the killer within this time, grants enduring. only one token can be held at a time.…

so I wanted to introduce a witchy game mechanic called grimoire perks. They are an empty slate; original perk icon is a book, but depending on what "spell" is activated the perk icon will change. Only one spell can be activated from the grimoire per trial depending on which action (booning a dull totem, cleansing/booning a…
-
Spell perks are perks that can only be accessed by scavenging for the "spell ingredients". one spell "ingredient" is gained by cleansing a totem. the second ingredient is gained by siphoning the energy of the entity by siphoning a sacrificial hook. siphoning takes 2.5 seconds the equivalent of saboing a hook. if you siphon…

No the first thing he did was close the hatch while I was on it. WHICH IS ANOTHER BIG COMPLAINT. why tf can survivors not jump in hatch when killer is standing on it (while it’s still open); but killers can close hatch even if survivor is standing right on it?

Talking about water isn’t wet. Boy you don’t know me. I’m not an expert player but I’m not a new player either. I know my way around dbd

Dude, I’ve been playing for years. I know what I saw. Don’t tell me what clearly happened to me didn’t happen to me. You weren’t even there. I came in here to ask for a reason. Er... well to complain for a reason. maybe I was playing against a hacker, but it really did not give me the option to use the open hatch.
-
Extremely inconvenient
-
I mean the reality is technically the hatch was open. If a survivor in the dying state could interact with it and fall in, why couldn’t a (I was) fully healthy tier 3 madness survivor interact with an open hatch
-
I’ll say I had enough time to walk over that hatch several different positions and nothing. So I decided to try snapping out of it. Although obviously I wasn’t going to have enough time
-
No. I ran over to hatch in tier 3. You know to jump in you have to press a button when prompted to, I was only given a snap out of it prompt
-
Look at the comment I just posted to the guy that literally told me no. Lol that or I played against a hacker
-
I’m on console
-
Don’t tell me it isn’t what I clearly saw. I was not shocked while trying to jump in. I received a static blast from a far distance, There was only a snap out of confusion prompt and spoiler alert 🚨 there was not enough time to snap out of confusion by the time the dr got to me.

Last month solo survive was not as horrendous as the lobby’s I’m getting lately. Everything seemed leveled last month. So again, if everything is as you say then it should’ve still been the same not a sudden dramatic change in lack of skill
-
The only time it wasn’t was when starting from rank reset
-
completely irrelevant. Last month all matches were almost exclusively on the same skill level
-
It does. Last I checked ppl paid for mikaela and her 3 perks. So what now. Insult to injury ppl can’t even work on her adept trophy. it’s like when pin heads perks came out bugged and devs kill switched it until it got fixed. oh yeah, that’s right. It didn’t get kill switched. Survivors just had to deal

The only reports during ptb were how “unfair” the boon totems were. All the mean while there are sites that sell in game hacks for pc like wall hacks.
-
Because killers are extremely coddled. This wasn’t even a chapter. It was a paragraph. Ppl literally paid for this one character and her 3 perks. And cannot even work on her adept trophy because killer mains are complaining. do we get reimbursement? are we going to get blood point compensation? And how soon? Will there be…
-
One of his ideas is literally using something he said (ergo him) as a reference... anywho they’re a company that is still not as big as other mmrpg. but I will agree with part of your initial complain (technically as I had originally) the game has a lot of problems hackers, swfs, game mechanics that don’t work properly,…
-
this will probably help new survivors. perk: messages from the archives: once at the start of each match one of the killers perks is revealed to the the survivor using this perk. Tier 1 reveals the icon, tier 2 icon and name, tier 3 icon name and summarized description; example of summarized description hex ruin: all…

where as adding separate queues (i dont think) should be that difficult you're not adding or even changing game mechanics. Just adding essentially another lobby. In the long run less work. Balancing would only have to be done on swf queue because swf has the resources necessary to get value out of perks with really bad…
-
Scott jund (if its the twitch streamer i think it is) is not a good source. And just because he has a huge following does not mean what he says has merit. I'm not saying what your suggesting is a horrible idea. In a perfect world it works well. But as i mentioned before and it is one of the main debilitating counters to…
-
Don’t be hard headed, read previous comments. Decent solutions were thought up. And as mentioned above it’s at the point where it’s not one sided and not affecting just the killers anymore.
-
i disagree that they would lose a lot of players. As it is right now there are 3 different groups affected by swfs. 1) killers; obviously. 2) actual high and mid rank survivors who are getting matched with survivors that are at "high ranks" bit dont actually play to that skill level. Creating very short and quick matches.…
-
I stand by my idea. I disagree that my idea would lose players. Swf is affecting 3 groups by the looks of it right now. 1) killers; obviously. 2) higher and mid rank survivors who are loading with survivors of the "same rank" that dont even play to that ranks skill level; as such are causing very short quick games. 3) devs…
-
I stand by my view that separate is easier. When survivor perks are nerfed and killers are buffed most of the time (if not always) it is due to the bullying/toxic play style from survivors in swf. Its extra work. If a survivor perk is released specifically to counter a specific killer behavior (and in the case of solo…
-
Please anyone new on this discussion; read previous comments because I’m starting to sound like a broken record. im open to actual ideas. This is a discussion, so don’t counter it with something that has already been answered
-
well this is an actual discussion now. So ok. 1) you first point is a good one, however it just further proves what I originally said. Survivor gameplay (which is the original game mode anyways) is built on survivors starting off with the least amount of knowledge. learning to play the game that will actually builds skill…
-
Ppl, read the previous comments please. I am really open to actual discussion but newer ideas for this theory, not copying and pasting what I’ve already wrote before. different games modes-different load queues. And as mentioned in a different but also previous discussion for killers who want the challenge killing swf team…
-
Read my previous comments. I did give some solutions to getting them at a rank (outside of the grey ranks where lower level killers are) im aware of what you said as true; as well. Which is why as I also mentioned in a previous comment-the point is to offer an incentive to ranking up. In other words/in a sense, make swf…
-
Kindred is useless. Swf does not need kindred. While solo queue survivor has to waste a perk slot just so that if that one survivor gets hooked everyone can see the aura.
-
They could even make nightmare mode for killers and just call it kill friends mode.
-
In the long run I feel like it would be better for the devs anyways. Less reason to constantly have to buff/debuff and balance killers/perks/etc.
-
Well it actually is a separate game mode, so why not?
-
Game becomes super unbalanced.
-
There should be a ranking system for playing swf and for playing solo. When swf players eventually do go play solo queue at higher ranks which happens VERY often (as mentioned above: swf was created as another gameplay mode), ppl do eventually have to play solo queue. They end up playing as a sack of potatoes. Aside from…
-
I answered this in my first response today^. You are right, but im sure there is a way to tweak that as referenced in other games like i mentioned in my first post from today.
-
you're being hard headed. Its not a matter of proving if there are comms. Swf originally started as a side option. It was never supposed to be the primary way of playing the game. ACTUALLY looking for balance in a game (as opposed to nerfing good survivor perks because ppl abuse them on swf). Not only makes gameplay fairer…
-
Well for starters; 1) that is the point. Eventually they will want to get out of the grey ranks when they feel trials are not challenging; i dont know behavior can start offering rewards when ranking season end. That would be the primary motivation for ranking up. 2) with everything said above some swfs (specifically the…

Occult inspired survivor perks: both characters can be the continuation of the imperiatti lore as 2 more characters from that group the magician following the teachings of his father’s illusion and the witch joining her mother’s coven in order to hone and use their skills to find their parents. the male magician (if…

Aside from that, tunneling isn't "efficient". Its just a telltale sign that the killer might be the type of player "that whines a lot afterwards" if they dont get 4ks. Reminder as per all killer main twitchers: 4ks are not supposed to be guaranteed. The game has been changed many times and one of which being that 4ks are a…
-
This also makes the game fun for high ranked killers that actually have skills because most of them get bored from solo queue survivors. *matches are painfully short*
-
Tunneling is little d!ck energy. I only think its acceptable against toxic SWF'S (which is probably why tunneling isnt punishable-not because its "efficient". Playing against a toxic swf is extremely difficult. DBD should give killers some sort of indicator in the lobby when entering a 3-4 man SWF (because 2 man swfs are…
-
Dont take this the wrong way because i totally agree with you. But it is the balance that the gameplay has been built on. Killers have always been in the first person view being that as it may thats why their powers usually have that flaw.

Because sone killer mains have small D!©€$

Oh and new item: This item has many purposes. Can cleanse hag traps, demo portals, plague touched items, dream snares/pallets. Can clear sickness, madness, micro sleep, and torment. Of course there will be a clear/cleanse bar with skill checks. Failing skill checks makes survivors scream revealing there location. These…
