Im using the Engineer toolbox with both charge addons because thats the one which the highest burst for putting charges potential as it puts 2 charges per second and altough it lasts less time is the one that can speed up a gen before you get there to interrupt, since that example was using Built To Last I ignored BNP as…

But a lot of stuff that was busted and took a lot to change was before the new mindset where they announced they were going to monitor changes, perks, powers, maps etc closely after release and change them faster if something busted or underwhelming appeared which they have been doing (to an extent, some things like maps…

Its still very good against SWF, if you kick 3 gens you get a 30% regression across the board after a down even if you dont get anyone incapacitated. If it wasnt good against SWF too nobody would pick it because stomping Solos is not that hard, Ecrutchion or no Ecrutchion.

Built to last wastes more time than it cuts with all the time it takes to reset the toolbox, its only real use is to refill medkits stacked with charge addons, it takes 12 seconds of hiding to recharge the entire item and then you have to go back to a gen. An Engineer toolbox with both charge addons saves 16 seconds (since…

They did revisit it, now it continues to regress the generator after incapacitating the Survivors fixing it, before at least if you were fixing the gen it didnt regress... They actually buffed it even more. I dont really like using Whataboutthism but something that really irks me is the fact Circle of Healing got tweaked…

A good Toolbox shaves 8 seconds of a generator, if you put +12 charges addon it goes to 14 and a brand new part it adds to a total ~31seconds, it can only happen once per match and if the gen doesnt get completed before you get there in the current meta the progress is going to disappear rather fast. They make the game…

And I saw a video of Leatherface downing 4 Survivors with a single sweep on old Haddonfield, I still dont think fringe cases are issues as they rarely happen. And all examples about toolboxes being an issue people bring have Hyperfocus, Stake Out and (sometimes) This is Not Happening, the issue maybe isnt the toolboxes…

Do you think solo q hud will help this? Yes, I believe it will at least help with player retention as Solo is probably the worst experience this game has to offer and new players are usually Solo. Is the game dying? No, I think its going back to pre COVID19 levels, most gaming and online platforms saw a huge increase in…

Thats 2 stacks of Hyperfocus which amounts to an extra 0,3% and 0,6% of completion, which is roughly... 0,8 seconds you shave or so, I dont think its an issue at all.

I remember this game where I wase facing Leatherface, he caught one guy and headed for the basement, I happened to have Head On and saved him, Leatherface came after me, eventually got me and proceeded to facecamp me while hitting on hook, nodding and revving the chainsaw (this was before his buffs), the other 3 had almost…

I dont find flashlights that bad, since people going for saves arent doing gens and a lot of times you can pick facing a wall, honestly except medkits the other 4 items the Survivors can bring arent even noticeable worthy. Toolboxes get a lot of flak for how meh they are, a purple toolbox with 2 charge addons makes a 90…

No, even the most stacked toolbox barely makes a dent on gen progression.

The problem is not the strategy itself, 3gens are as old as the game and only recently they have become a serious issue, the problem is the buffed regression perks, 10 extra seconds and instant 2,5% regression per gen which made this insane. Before 6.1 the 3 strong regression perks were Ruin, PGTW and Pain Resonance. Ruin…

Scott Jund explains this very well on this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHEkN-oDLrk I do agree with him, top MMR is a meme, Ive been paired against certain Killer streamers who have around a 90-95% (checked their streams, they rake in win after win after win) win rate and I know Im not THAT good to be paired…

Not really.

After 6.1 but mainly because I barely play Survivor nowadays, before I could play around 8 to 10 games and it was very rare to not escape at least 2 even on very bad days, nowadays playing 1 or 2 only is easy to not escape a single match, Solo queue only of course...

I was expecting Sprint Burst to rise up a lot but because I expected DH to get totally destroyed like MoM was, DH is still a decent perk so there wasnt a huge vacuum left for the other Exhaustion perks to appear. SB is probably one of the most used exhaustion perks tho and while I did see an increase on Lithe I think in my…

I dont think release DBD is like vanilla WoW, I believe the "you think you do but you dont" does really apply to this game. Being able to mori people without even hooking them or stuff like Coldwind meat trees being a 2 window infinite loop isnt something people really want to experience.

While Im not saying Leatherface is going away the responses Cote gave were very ambigous, first he says the games havent affected negatively the liberty they had (which could mean they had 0 liberty and the games didnt make it any harder because it was impossible) and then he says they could release more cosmetics for Ash,…

But they do that because they know you cant KOBE, when the game didnt instantly kill you Killers lingered around to avoid last guy self-unhooking, if the change was reverted Killers would start to linger again.

Yeah I agree with you, Nurse only real counter is stealth because it takes her so damn much to check tiles, you hear her coming you hide and she wastes a lot of time searching for you while the rest of the team fixes gens, what a normal Killer does in 5 seconds it can take her 15, her being so slow makes walking around a…

Can anyone from any platform drop the Xbox users or is only Xbox dropping other Xbox users? For example someone playing on EPIC could bomb a Xbox user?

Bully squads have many tools to piss off Killers and mass Head On is one of them, used by 3 or 4SWFs to keep stunning the Killer during chases nonstop while nobody fixes gens or does anything but flock around, sometimes even going as far as managing to reset the Exhaustion before using it again, Ive seen streamers doing…

Didnt know Xbox users could do that.

Bully squad for me is people who enter a game with intent on pissing off the Killer, usually ignoring the objective, obviusly is not only "I got Head On, then Flashlight, then Flashbang" thats only one of the setups used to frustrate Killers, there are a lot more. Bully squad on the search throws 1,8k comments which is a…

Complain threads are made on the forums, Reddit and generals about bully squads being a pain in the butt and streamers do complain when they get people going for those kind of gimmicky games where they enter mainly to pester the Killer with that kind of antics.

People do hate bully squads even if they win, being chain stunned, then blinded, then flashbang can be infuriating for a lot of people with reason, I dont really mind them but I can understand why people dislike them.

I agree I believe Nurse is going to see more nerfs but at least not in the near future, theyll collect data but we already know whats going to happen, after all Nurse without perks is the second strongest Killer in the game, first being Nurse with perks. Getting rid of Starstruck on her isnt going to fix the problem she…

I would say its because certain streamers who make their comunity by being extremely biased and antagonistic against the other side have been complaining about it, people dont have a problem with something until someone in a supposed position of knowledge tells them they must have a problem with it. Said streamers could…

IMO the incapacitation has to go, effects that take away agency from players for long periods of time are awful, there is a reason they nerfed CCs in WoW from 50 seconds to 12 with diminishing returns from Vanilla to TBC, or why stunning on 2D fighters became super rare occurences or respawming times keep getting shorter…

They did ignore Twins, as a revenge I suggest players should answer back by never ever playing Twins.

Not really, whats the difference from losing against Starstruck Nurse or 4slowdown Nurse? Both roads lead to the same destination. At least it shows they are willing to look at Nurse and trying soft nerfs to see if it keeps her at bay (it wont, perkless Nurse played by a good player is still the second best Killer and the…

I would notice because someone else would notice eventually and come to the forums to complain about it but on my own? nah I wouldnt notice (or care), I dont own them and luckily for everyone they are the least picked Killer.

Looks like they implemented an algorithm to police videos, it isnt working and they obviusly dont have enough humans to doublecheck the restrictions (as its probably on the tens of thousands per day). I work on a megacorporation and the problem with these kind of things is a higherup thinks of PLAN™ that will either save a…

What they announced are a general idea of whats going to be on the PTB not everything on the patch, tomorrow the patch notes will be released and then we can see if Ecrutchion is nerfed this midchapter or not.

I do hit them quite frequently, probably a leftover of having to deal with old Ruin (altough I reckon I lost some finesse since those days).

Problem with tunneling comes from doing it offhook because the unhooked is extremely vulnerable, you remove camping or proxy camping and tunneling becomes a minor issue because the victim has time to heal and start the next chase on a better position, thus making it harder to down them again. If they take care of…

3gen situation is not the problem, it has always been in the game and until 6.1 it wasnt a concern for almost anyone as they were breakable except in very special situations when you had Ruin and it spawmed on the generator cluster in certain maps. It became a problem after 6.1 with the new regression perks and base buffs…

I do it during giveaways like they do now, I launch it, get the bonus, close it. If there isnt anything to collect and I dont really want to play I dont launch it.

Here in the wiki is a detailed description of what gives you points on each Emblem which in turn is related towards pips. https://deadbydaylight.fandom.com/wiki/Emblems#Killer_Emblems

Today is Fool's day in spanish speaking countries, maybe its a prank from the developers.

If you reached 100% wiggle at the time you were about to get hooked the server may register the hook before it registers you getting off so getting hooked takes priority but the window for it happening is very small. On the other hand if you reached 100% and stood there wiggling for aditional seconds while being carried is…

I learned ages ago to not play multiplayer games on worldwide festivity days because the % of jackasses increases exponentially, my guess is the more normal and social people are attending social/family gatherings and on top of that petty people are usually pettier during these days. So more jackasses per square meter than…

Because it will be abused "I got RPD, concede" "Oh they were a premade, concede" "WHAT?! 1 gen done and I didnt get a down yet? concede" "this guy stunned me 0,1 seconds before I got the down... guess what? concede" "They set up a Boon, concede" "DONT YOU DARE TBAG ME OR ILL CONCEDE!! THATS IT, I CONCEDE, CYA TOXIC…

Im of the same opinion and I think BHVR would get a lot more player retention and cosmetic sales if they made their DLCs base up to Oni or Deathslinger (or all except Twins, Twins should never be base, auric cells only and their cost increased to 1000€).

You can concede in DBD as Killer, you can go to the door and stay there until all gens get done and open it to force EGC, it usually takes around 2 minutes if you actually played the game and they had already some gens done.

From 3 to 9 some cosmetics but after that there isnt any point in ranking up really.

Eyrie ranks 8 out of 17 in size, it is medium sized. In any case, map size is not as relevant as people believe, Azarovs and Shelter Woods are tied on second largest map and they are quite Killer sided, on the other hand Badham maps sit on the smaller size (10, 11 and 13 depending on variations) and are considered one of…

My guess is because the graveyard part can spawn with several very safe pallets and they are very easy to link, on the rest I agree with you, the main is average once you remove the two breakable walls and the tiles are regular tiles too, except the graveyard zone the rest of the map doesnt have much pallet density either,…

Wraith breathing can be heard from several meters away, probably around 4-6 meters, someone paying attention to sounds will hear it and start running.
