...yeeaaah, not happening.

Monitor helps you get the first Frenzy hit easier, which is absolutely more important than the chain I'd argue. Even if you can't get the Frenzy chain, you can use the Killer Instinct to have a good idea of where other Survivors are. Tracking is very important on Legion. In their current state, their ability doesn't do an…

Not sure if it's been said, but instead of saying one killer is objectively stronger than the other, I'll advise you to consider your playstyle. Do you wanna play a stealthy killer you have to slowly power up over time for an incredibly strong snowball effect? Or do you wanna play a loud, not at all stealthy monster with…

You have to know when to stalk and when not to stalk. If you're in a position where marking them and downing them would take less time than running the full chase, try to go for the stalk. Otherwise, it's good to go for surprise hits out of stealth. With recovery add-ons, I'd call Ghost Face a high-mid tier killer.…

Post-game chat is pretty useless, honestly. If it's not just players exchanging "GGs", its more often than not ridiculous amounts of salt and toxicity. It does nothing positive for the game, as if players really want to communicate with one another, they do so in groups outside of the game. Discord servers, these forums,…

Either Legion or Leatherface.

Yeah, you'll have to find a new killer. You can keep complaining, but it's not gonna change much. The devs gutted Legion and have barely done anything good for the killer since, and despite the overwhelming negative feedback, that's likely not gonna change. Nurse is still getting consistent results at her best, so they're…

I mean, a sweaty SWF can make the game unfun for any killer, 4k or no k. But whatever fuels your ego ig.

Pig does not use STFBL better than Demogorgon. Shred is way easier to make use of than Ambush. Pig is probably my most played killer and I'd absolutely say Demogorgon is higher on the tier list by a considerable amount. Pig's ambush only helps her out at smaller loops, and her slowdown tool is RNG. Nothing about Demogorgon…

I've played against quite a few Demogorgons who have beat me and my team even when I'm playing with friends over Discord. I also had some pretty decent success in red ranks perkless and addonless with Demo. I know red ranks only really represents play time and not skill at this point, but its worth noting. Demo has some…

I wouldn't call him TOP. I'd call him high tier when optimized though. He still gets looped and his shred doesn't have movement like Oni or Billy's sprints, meaning it only helps at loops with straight paths long enough for him to use it. You can bait a survivor dropping the pallet and charge up your shred to break the…

Yes, I DO enjoy Nurse right now. She actually feels challenging to play now when she felt like a free win before even with basekit. I used to not enjoy playing her because I felt bad for survivors, but now I don't feel as bad. Nowadays she's far from my least played killer. That title will forever go to Plague because I…

Plague is just super flawed in design. She's not incredibly overpowered, but her power is very "damned if you do, damned if you don't" on both sides. Survivors cleanse and they get downed really quickly by an easy to aim projectile. If they don't and they aren't good, Plague has easy tracking and constant one-shots all…

Some people have fun with new Nurse. Some people don't. That's okay. Personally, I believe the place she's in is healthier for the game because it gives survivors more counterplay to her fundamentally BROKEN ability. She can completely ignore survivor defenses. Her old basekit was more fair than 5 blink or omega blink, but…

People care about rank because its shoved in their face every several seconds and the game makes it very annoyingly clear when it believes you've done poorly. It's not about the benefit, it just starts to become annoying when the game is basically telling you that you're garbage because your killer is sub-par or because…

The Demogorgon needs no costume. 😈

Oh thank heavens, I'm not the only one seeing them. I thought I was just getting terrible luck. Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of keys lately. I'm just seeing a lot of people run the things that killer players hate the most recently. Object of Obsession, Instaheals, Keys... I don't play survivor often, but maybe killers have been…

@justarandy He had some things to be tweaked but I enjoyed him for the most part when it was still peer-to-peer. Not sure if this is a controversial opinion or not but I think he was fine on live release and the nerf afterwards to assist console players was overkill and just made him more inconsistent and awkward for both…

If you feel the need to announce your leave from a game like this on its forum page, you'll be back within a week. It's attention seeking.

I used to. Eventually I realized that it doesn't really matter and I just need to focus up and prepare for a tough match. If I'm prepared for a hard one and it turns out easy, match goes by quicker than normal.

Everything you do except for custom games are ranked. What do you expect? Until a proper casual mode is added to the game, it's going to attract a very aggressive, competitive and toxic audience with only a handful of people choosing to ignore progression entirely to just have a good time.

Constructive.

Thanataphobia is an unfortunately weak perk, but if anyone gets use out of it, it's definitely Legion. I ran it on them for a while on top of Ruin, just for that extra boost while I got used to them after their rework. If you can make it work, go for it!

There's a reason I don't use those masks, y'know. 🤭

Did you by any chance play a custom game in any of these instances? "Some players have been facing an issue that causes partial loss of progress. We found one cause of the issue and are planning a fix for the mid-chapter update. In the meantime you can use this workaround: restart the game client after using the Custom…

Ah, yes. A neon pink mask. Nothing screams "stealth killer" more than that. Jokes aside, I'd always be happy to see more cosmetics for the ghosty boi.

Corrupt Intervention helps with killers that need time to set up. Trapper, Hag, /maybe/ Demogorgon depending on how you use his portals. Ruin can the same job, for all killers at that, but at the risk of an early cleanse. You can't cleanse CI. The counter to CI is hiding, which is why it's perfect for killers that need…

The PTB is not your free trial. It exists for the sake of testing a big, new update so the devs know what to change before it goes live. Not everyone goes on the PTB when it's around, meaning they need to gather as much data from the people choosing to play it as possible. Yes, it's true that sometimes a new update can bug…

I'd upvote this twice if I could.

The difference with Trapper is that he's got an assload of traps around the map he can grab if he needs another and can't take the time to go back to one he currently finds useless. Demogorgon's portals are limited to only a few, and he can't change their position unless a survivor cleanses it. If anything, the counter to…

@ApeOfMazor While playing without Ruin is extremely frustrating, it's not impossible to succeed without it, even at higher ranks with lower tier killers. You'll struggle really hard against optimal survivors, but let's be honest, high rank optimal survivors either manage to ignore Ruin entirely or they find it in the first…

Actually, @53nation @TheBean, from my experience, bringing an Ebony can help greatly in getting a double pip if you use it on a survivor's death hook to max out your sacrifice points quicker in the event that survivors either DC or rush the gens too hard preventing you from easily getting a 4k. Also, as for everyone above,…

I am guilty of doing this with Pig. It's a fun time.

Awesome! Thanks for the help!

Thank you so much. :) Last question: is using official footage from the devs off limits? Like, the panning camera shots of maps in showcases, or brief uses of the CGI trailers?

Actually, aside from them being entirely reliant on RNG, Reverse Bear Traps do a pretty good job at slowing the game down, especially with tools like Crate of Gears. Not seeing the box's aura will discourage survivors to try and remove them, since they're inactive then they don't pose any threat at all At higher ranks,…

@TAG Probably would have been smart to mention you, but I was really tired when posting. My mistake!

I came up with the concept of the progressive RNG system because it sometimes feels as if the current RNG is swayed against Pig. I've seen more survivors get their bear traps off first try than I've seen them get it off last try, and I also hear the same from a lot of friends and acquaintances who play DBD. It does make it…

iirc the devs have said that the reason ebony moris are more common than they'd seem based on their rarity listing, is because there's less ultra rare items to find in bloodwebs. like, there's only ebonies and iridescent add-ons, usually equating to about 3-4 ultra rare items in total to find in a bloodweb. rare items are…

he could also just be good at the killer and be stating the tier he thought they were? getting consistent 4ks doesn't mean your killer is god tier, it typically means you're a good player. nurse is the only top tier that can basically hand out free 4ks with only a little bit of practice and skill.

i'd advocate more for discordance over whispers nowadays, it helps a lot more to pressure gens as pig with crouch and ambush.

Hallo, Piggy main here. Don't know if the others would agree with me, but I wouldn't see this as a buff to her power. This would require her to cease patrol of generators too often to retrieve her RBTs. The amount of time spent per match grabbing traps would likely prove to be too much time for survivors to work on…

No. Up until this it was a completely normal match. I didn't think I'd need to break out OBS and start bug hunting.

All generators popped. The trap on that player was active before the last gen popped. I watched them walk out of the exit gate as well, so I know for a fact it was not a hatch escape.

They made it to where /inactive/ bear traps don't trigger at the gates. Active ones are still supposed to. This trap was activated before last gen popped.

IMO Whispers is very helpful on Pig, I'd almost say it's needed. If you wanna take advantage of your crouch for more than just a couple loops, Whispers gives you a general idea of when you're close to a survivor, allowing you to take cover and crouch. It's more effective with M&A, but still helpful regardless. Also, I…

"That being said, we have made a lot of progress with the Freddy Rework in the last couple of months and we will be able to give more details next month." Seeing as how this was Early/Mid-April, "next month" is this month. We'll likely hear something soon.

The new Legion is not that bad in terms of power. Yes, you get a free hit and its easy to keep people injured with Killer Instinct's tracking, but Frenzy has become so sluggish that he just feels like any other M1 killer now. He's not nearly as fun as he once was. That's the biggest issue.
