Why won't you prestige?

My Kate is P3. I have not used either of the 3 cosmetics this year.

I'm not exactly the type that wants to brag or "intimidate" my opponent.

Also I don't really care about stealth. Most of my favorite skins are quite B R I G H T. 😁

Also, having to restart every time you prestige... no thanks. The grind is already annoying enough.

Personally, I won't prestige at this point just to repeat a grind for a perk that may not appear for 100 Bloodwebs. The skins are just meh imo. Nothing flashy, and the increase in rarer items doesn't really appeal to me. I'm happy with what I get now really since I rarely use the higher add-ons anyways

I've been grinding for almost 3 years. I'm done, I've regretted almost every prestige. I've got a lot if P3's with bad perks. Even without prestige you still have to grind way past level 50 to get all your perks

I play two to four matches a night, usually. I don't spend hours and hours a day doing this, so what I earn isn't all that much. To prestige and lose everything, just to have to regrind again for a useless cosmetic? Something I won't ever use? Pointless.

It's not like COD Prestige. You only go to 3.

Prefer other outfits. Even for immersive play.

Once you get the set of perks on tier 3 no reason to reset.

As others have stated.

To each their own

Because prestige is useless. There's no tangible benefit from prestigeing a character.

I see people say a lot at these forums that the grind gives them something to do, gives them a reason to keep playing, etc.

I see that as a major design problem with DbD as a PvP game. A PvP game should not have to rely on a grind to keep people engaged and playing.

I've been in Overwatch since its beta, as an example. Overwatch has zero grind. A hero is a hero, their kit is their kit, and the draw is learning the heroes and getting very good with them. Your skill versus your opponents'. It's kept me around for 4+ years.

In Paladins, it was experimenting with the card loadouts for my characters and discovering different strengths, weaknesses, and playstyles (I loved my Healing build Skye, for example, who is actually a Flanker role character, not a Healer, by default).

DbD should be about the PvP and the perk builds that can be done. But what I feel like I see more often is: well, the grind keeps me going. That's okay for an MMO or something like Borderlands, but it's very telling about a PvP game's design if the grind is the keeper.

still say selling add on item offering back would help before you prestige character sell they stuff or let us sell the useless stuff back maybe for half the price.

another thing all survivors should share the same item add on and offering pool but killers only share the offering pool

how these idea sound?

I prestige everyone to p3 but only because I have absolutely nothing else to do with my blood points. But lets not try to sugar coat it and claim it is anything other than worthless.

Do you happen to know my friend, Corey Trevorson?

The only benefits you get from prestiging is bloody clothing and a slight increase on higher rarity items in your bloodweb. Not every one is interested in the clothing which is okay. We have a whole store(and rift) with clothing that is usually preferred over the bloody clothing.

The slight increase in better items will also make your bloodwebs slightly more expensive since you will still have to spend bloodpoints on those items. Which is a reason why people dont prestige. In my honest opinion the lower rarity addons for killer are sometimes preferred.

I personally prestige my characters, since I like to grind. But wanted to put some reasons down that I have heard on why people wont prestige.

Nope, i had all characters at P3-50 at one point, then when new characters were added, i didn't want to level those to max. at all.

I'm not a bragger, i'm intimidated by skill and not blood, and i don't really care how hidden my Survivor can be, i wear what i like.

Fun fact: I do only use one survivor. Regardless, I'd rather have all the perks in one survivor and be done with the grind than level up every character until they have all the perks (which takes forever) and prestige them one by one just for a cosmetic. Grinding is just not fun for me.

I prestiged Steve because he is my main, and I like the bloody face paired with scoop troop clothes; it makes him look more like him from season 3.

I probably won't prestige another survivor until there's another event like a bloodhunt or something that gives us items like the gatau. It's just too much of a grind under normal circumstances. 1mil+ BPs just to get to level 50, and then probably another million more to get every perk to level 3 once you can't prestige anymore.

Edit: That's like 5mil BPs to prestige one survivor, assuming you start from level 1 no prestige.

I don't play enough to want to grind all perks once more.
