Rip they patched pyramid M2 tech
BHVR can you kinda add something back in that is similar to the m2 tech or reduce the timeframe between the "ching" noise of the knife in the floor, and then the prompt for POTD, similar to how it was on release.
M2 tech was super fun, made going for shots a bit less predictable but still had counter from the survivor side as if you knew what the phead was doing it was incredibly easy to predict when a shot was going to happen.
Unfortunately the removal of this just encourages less firing and more zoning which is boring asf and it nerfs him a slight bit. Don't get me wrong it's not like a huge nerf, if anything it barely effects him overall but it was incredibly fun to play with and I'm just kinda sad that it's gone.

Didn't they patch it long time ago already?
I don't see how it encourages more zoning
Nah only just got patched in the most recent hotfix.
It encourages me to go for less shots, as shots are easier to predict and have a much bigger tell tale of when they're about to happen.
This kinda feels like a "you" problem. I certainly don't feel pressured to zone people or go for animation locked hits. Especially since his power cooldown is so short.
It was a stupid exploit that made it MUCH easier to land POTDs.
It's good that it's patched
He’s fine without it
M2 tech? The 0.2s exploit was unfair as #########, forced the survivors into a guessing game (which as we know, unfun and usually unfair) and didn't deserve to be in the game. I'm so glad it's patched because it's now one more thing that seperates a good PH from a bad one.
Coming from someone who discovered that completely on accident and even used it in a chase, it needed to go.
Stop calling exploits techs.
It was an exploit and the people who were abusing it probably should've got a ban.
As someone who faced people exploiting this on multiple occasions: Good riddance.
jfllick is probably next.
dark days are upon us my friends.... dark days
I really hope so.
Welp when that happened all jflick blight mains I know will probably go back to slugging infect fright Nurse or Stridor Spirit cause those were their old mains. Blight without jflick is such a limited, lame and boring killer. The flicks added some spice into his gameplay
if not being able to use an exploit makes you play stridor spirit maybe its a very good thing the exploit is getting patched.
No he is not
Blight without J-Flick is perfectly fine and balanced. That's such an irritating and unfounded statement
All the flicks do is add less counterplay and expects survivors to predict a killer is gonna use an exploit. Nobody likes expecting people are gonna exploit. It's not fun, it's not healthy for the game whatsoever
Blight is fine and balanced without jflick...
but also his boring, there is nothing special or new with his concept as a killer compared to most others. You move around the map with a mobility power l and hit people who are out positioned... like wow never seen that before
So the exploit is the only fun you think there is to blight?
why are you playing blight then
just say youre bad at pyramid head and move on
not playing blight that much anymore, I am defending the jflick more from a survivor perspective as I am someone who likes to go against it. There is really nothing fun or enjoyable going against a basic blight. All you do is hug tight corners and go behind obstacles and boom, I clearly outplayed them and the chase gets extended. Against flicks I have to think more carefully about my movements, the way I loop, and try to make reads on where they are gonna try to hit from. You are never truly safe against a jflick blight which actually makes the game more intense and interesting.
Someone who relies on using an exploit to get kills is probably not that good with Nurse because if they were good enough with her to put an entire team on slugging with Infectious Fright why would they be playing Blight in the first place?.
that gotta be the weirdest question.
"why would you play another killer if you are so good with Nurse?"
Maybe cause they want to test something new and different which normal Blight isn't, you might as well just play billy at that point tbh.
The thing is you are fearmongering by saying by removing Blights flick those players would have to return to play god Nurse, so by asking a fix for an exploit Survivors are actually dooming themselves.
Thats what I find a bit absurd, if a player resorts to use an exploit to win is either a bad player or a sweatlord, first case if they are bad they wont be good at Nurse, second case if they are sweatlords AND good at Nurse they wouldnt stop playing her anyway, because she is much stronger than Blight with flick.
Is this "M2 Tech" just the thing where you M1 immediately from Rites of Judgement or is this something else I haven't heard about before?
Since it's patched now, basically it was done by spamming M2 once or twice and then being able to do the Punish attack instantly with basically no telegraph. On the survivors side, what PH would do is go to put his sword down then immediately the attack would come out leaving basically no reaction time.
All exploits should be patched out. especially stretched rez...
That one is extremely hard to fix for its not something in their code, is an external problem, similar to voice coms or stream sniping, its not that easy.
You mean the "instashot tech"?
Don't tell me this is fixed but Nurse can still look up during fatigue.
You mean Exploit
