If these are the only Nemesis changes, then that'll be pretty disappointing
I was extremely disappointed upon seeing the Nemesis add-on changes listed in the dev update. He's nowhere near oppressive enough to warrant a nerf. Two of them got unnecessary nerfs and the others still don't look that good. Iridescent Umbrella Badge sounds good until you take into account travel time since Nemesis just…

Deep Wounds and Doctor
I just thought about this a few minutes ago, but does Madness 3 prevent you from Mending until you Snap Out of It? If it does, then does the Deep Wounds timer pause while snapping out of it?

Give me a good reason to continue to playing this event
This event is ######### especially as Killer. All it is just Survivors bringing cakes and then sweating their asses off. I don’t like playing that way. It’s not fun at all. I’ve already gotten Nemesis to P3 50 with good perks and add-ons so I don’t have anyone I want to prestige. What is there to stop me from not playing while…

Clarification for disc PS4 to PS5 upgrade
The FAQ for the PS5 upgrades says disc PS4 players are not eligible for a free upgrade to the PS5 version, unlike most digital users. I clicked on the link for more information but it was not very helpful. All it tells you is how to upgrade your game from PS4 to PS5. There was a link to the list of PS4 games that work on…

Is the EGC supposed to look like this?
This was taken from a PS5. The EGC effects look like they were pulled out of Minecraft. Has it always been like this or is this a problem with the new consoles? I don’t remember seeing it look like this on the PS4.

DBD PS5 Theme?
So PlayStation just added this to their store, and something in the description caught my eye: "an exclusive Dead by Daylight - StrangerThings PS5 theme" Does this mean that we're already getting PS5 content for the game or is this just a typo and they meant PS4? This also brings me to something else I wanted to discuss:…

The Game's performance is absolutely terrible
I've played two Killer games on it and my FPS hung out around the 5-10 mark most of the time. It was making me uncomfortable at times. I know it wasn't me playing Doctor because I played him twice on Badham and it was nowhere near as bad. I even played Wraith on Badham and it was fine (by console standards at least). My…

A great example as to why the Emblem system is broken
Last night, I was playing Killer on Disturbed Ward and ran into this situation: Feng on a hook Yui on a hook Nancy slugged in between them and not moving. Jane is somewhere on the other side of the map. There are no more hooks nearby. Would you A. Secure the three kills and just wait for Jane to show up or B. Run to the…

Destroyer of Hope challenge
This challenge, especially in the position where it’s at, is stupid as hell. I’m going to rant about another EGC Tome challenge. Hook four Survivors during the EGC. Can’t be that bad, right? Wrong. The previous challenges were annoying, but much easier because all you had to do was sacrifice them during the EGC. The…

What happened to the crows?
Why are there so little crows on some of the maps? Just got out of a match on Autohaven where there was only two crows on the map. Two! I thought they were more abundant. Is it just RNG or is the crow challenge messing with the number of crows that spawn?
-
Best grab build?
I'm doing some last minute Rift grinding and I was wondering what the best build for getting a grab would be for that one challenge in level 2. I really don't want to have to play a bunch of random Killer games just trying to get a single grab so I can move on to the other challenges as quickly as possible. I have all…

Doctor Illusions and illusion auras not showing up at Madness tier 1
Summary: Doctor Illusions do not show up at all during Madness tier 1. Description: Whenever I use the Iridescent King add-on as Doctor, I do not see any illusions appearing nor do I see any illusion auras after any Survivor reaches Madness for the first time. It's acting as if the changes in the 3.6.0. patch never…

Tome II EGC challenges and second Hatch close challenges are dumb
######### them. They are way too RNG-reliant, something that challenges shouldn't be. I am ######### tired of not finding the Hatch, salty Survivors kill themselves at the same time in order to deny me the Hatch, or finding too late and having to go through another game only for the same ######### to happen again. It is not fun at all…

What happened with Iridescent King/Restraint?
As the image below will show you, the 3.6.0 patch notes say that when using Iridescent King, the Restraint affliction is supposed to have illusions appear and let you see their auras at any Madness tier. However, when I use the add-on, I don’t see any auras and I wouldn’t be surprised if the illusions aren’t appearing at…

Did something change with the Devout Emblem recently?
I recently had two Killer games where I safetied on a 4k, which shocked me as I only camp or tunnel when necessary (as in Survivors are rushing in for the save). When I started looking though my Emblems a couple of days later (the pictures are from recordings because I didn’t notice anything until just now), I noticed that…
-
BHVR, can you guys please improve Doctor's shock stun?
As of right now, Doctor's shock stun isn't working properly. Sometimes it'll register and sometimes it won't. This can be pretty impactful as you'll shock a Survivor when they're at a pallet or window and the game decides to take 30 decades to register that there was a stun, which means that the Survivor is able to…

How to Demogorgon at higher ranks
I need some help with doing good with Demogorgon at higher ranks. When it comes to my portals, I can't decide whether to hide them or place them beside a gen or the Hatch and use them as tracking/game slowing tools. I'm also not sure when exactly to use my Shred. Should I always be trying to use it or should I wait until I…

Help with last Hillbilly perk
My current build is Whispers, BBQ, PGTW, and Nurse's. I've been thinking about replacing Nurse's due to the no heal meta and the fact that Billy isn't really a stealth Killer. I'm pretty set on the first three perks. The perks I've been looking at for replacements are: Ruin M&A Devour Hope Dying Light Surveillance Enduring…

Freddy + Hawkins = Crappy FPS
I just finished a game as Freddy at Hawkins and it wasn’t super fun. The game started getting choppy when I started my first chase. I thought that it was just a one time thing, but it wasn’t. Almost every time I swung at or chased a Survivor, my FPS went down. Sometimes it wasn’t that bad but other times I had no clue what…

How much of a difference does Distressing actually make?
Doctor is one my mains (the other being Freddy), and I run a build that isn't the strongest but is pretty fun for me (BBQ, Distressing, Unnerving, Overcharge). Over the past few days I began thinking about Distressing and how far my terror radius actually reaches. I'm pretty sure Distressing increases my terror radius by 8…
-
Help with last perk on my Spirit build please
Currently my Spirit build is Ruin, BBQ, Surveillance, and Nurse’s Calling. I really like using Nurse’s Calling (especially on small terror radius Killers) because Survivors won’t hear my terror radius until I’ve already seen their aura. However, I’ve seen how deadly she can be with Discordance and I’ve been wondering if I…

Question about brightened auras
Does this remove the "hide behind a gen" counter to BBQ? I saw that auras had been brightened in the patch notes today (under the "Other Balance Changes" section) and instantly thought about this.

High rank Killer queue times on PS4 NA post-Hallowed Blight event
How are they? Are they still really long or did they improve to where I can get four Survivors in a lobby without having to wait 20+ minutes?

Anything special for Thanksgiving?
With Thanksgiving coming up in about two weeks, many games will be starting their special events for the holiday. I was wondering if DbD would also be doing something for Thanksgiving. I'm not expecting anything to happen because The Hallowed Blight just finished last week and the Bloodrush event is currently active, so…

How are rank 7-1 lobbies on PS4 NA at around 5-11 PM Eastern time?
I'm currently two pips into rank 7 and I am trying to complete Doctor's Blight outfit (I have one piece, about to get the second today). However, I'm worried that the queue times will get longer as I get closer to rank 1 and I would like to not have to play ten (if I'm lucky and fill up one vial per match) Survivor games…

Metallic Trapper release?
I remember that a metallic Trapper skin was datamined (and apparently there were three versions of it) when the PTB for Shattered Bloodline was released. I thought that it would be released with 2.2.0, but I was wrong as it is not in the store. Does this mean that it will be released in the next mid-chapter patch or were…

M&A 3 vs Sloppy Butcher 3 on Trapper
I’ve been using M&A 3 on my Trapper to make it harder for Survivors to know where I’m placing traps using the reduced TR. Now that Sloppy Butcher has been buffed and seems pretty decent now, I’m considering using it as a replacement for M&A. I’m not sure the Mangled status effect will stack with Trapper’s add-ons or not,…

How are the PS4 servers around 5-7 AM EDT?
I haven’t got a chance to play since the reset, so I’m only at Killer rank 14 and 29/50 Survivor Chops. I’m going to try to get the other 21 chops early in the morning before the event ends. Does anyone know if there will enough players (specifically Survivors) on the servers to get a few games going at that time?
-
An actual QoL change to BBQ and Chili
When a Survivor disconnects or doesn't load into a match, the Killer should not lose out on their BBQ stack. It is really stupid that Survivors can deny you at least 25% extra BP just because you managed to down them. This is something that should've been caught and fixed before the perk was released.

Really glad BHVR wants to have a “play with the devs” event
Hopefully they’ll finally be able to see just how hard Killers have had it and how ridiculously easy Survivor is. Maybe we’ll finally start getting closer to a balanced game.

Calm Spirit questions
I heard that Calm Spirit was supposed to leave the visual indicators (aura bubbles) intact for the Killers that it affected (Doctor with his Madness tier ups, Clown with his bottles, and when you step into a Trapper’s trap), but it currently doesn’t in the live build. Did BHVR just not keep another promise again? Also, is…

Should Third Seal stay as a hex perk?
Most of us here know what Third Seal does. Attacks will apply the blindness effect to the last 2/3/4 Survivors that you hit. Like the other hex perks, it is subject to crappy totem spawns which lead to it being destroyed within the first 30 seconds of a game. Considering Blindess isn't that effective due to SWF and…

Double BP question
Just want to make sure, but the reason the game says there’s only one day left in the Bloodhunt is because we have less than 48 hours remaining, but more than 24 hours? It’s not because of a glitch?

Adept Hag tips?
I just got Hag to level 20 tonight (she is currently level 23), so I thought I’d go for her Adept trophy. I have Third Seal 1, Ruin 2, and Devour Hope 1. Getting this trophy is a lot harder than I thought. I played two games and I got nowhere close to a 4k. Should I continue trying to keep my totems up or should I leave…

Malicious needs a fix
To get Iridescent in Malicious, you have to get 36 points in that category. You can get eight points from each of the four Survivors, meaning that if no one gets saved or healed, you will only get 32 points, which only gets you Gold. This makes zero sense whatsoever because the point of Malicious is to prevent the…
