what if the artist and slinger swapped movement speeds together?
i am honestly in love with how good the artist turned out being with alright addons and unmatched chase potential with almost infinite range lethality with a few tactics you could do with the crows, got lucky with getting bbq on her and will hopefuly p3 her by the end of the day today.
but i do find it weird why they gave her the normal movement speed that she does have. if she was released pre 2021 setting the traps would've taken 5 seconds and arming would've taken 3 seconds, and she would probably not be able to move while doing it not to mention the crows would instantly get lightburned like the hag's phantasm.
i'm just greatful we're getting a decent killer once in a while. and a killer that rewards skills and experience with how well you understand survivor movement and predict accordingly. as well as her ability to harrass survivors from afar.
unlike say the last killer who's passive slowdown ability wrecks low ranks with little to no skill on the killer's part and a chase power that's isn't very rewarding for how risky it is that he has very little value in higher level plays because teams actually know how to manage time better and where his possesed chains aren't as effective because survivors can actually loop worth their salt and understand how flimsy the chains are.

or just like, reverse slinger nerfs/buffs he got last patch. dont fix what aint broke
Artist would be too weak and deathslinger would be overpowered
Sure. Or her birds would be instant and would damage people from across the map.
The only balance this game had back in the day was 'no balance'. Killers could be utterly broken (Nurse) or unplayably bad (Hag) and everything in between.
Deathslinger needs his aim change reverted and maybe his 'miss' time increased. Right now it's not just that he's underpowered - it's that he's clunky and unfun.
Artist is entirely fine - honestly, she could even stand for a Plague-style QOL improvement with all her hitching.
ugh this.. if theres one thing i can't stand its clunky characters. plague was like that for the longest time before they gave her sweeping QOL changes on all fronts. now they just need to fix her not making people sick despite both people seeing on their end that the plague has puked on the survivor. hopefully slinger could get something like that, not a super massive buff, but just something that makes him smoother and more bearable to play.
Leave my birb lady alone.
Or just revert the slinger nerfs and he will be all fine like he was before :)
Honestly, swapping their speed would be a bad idea. I dunno if it would kill Artist, but isn't she basically a range killer? At least I consider her as a range killer, so it kinda bothers me that she's the only range killer that's not 4.4m/s (110%).
I guess you could argue that Plague is a range killer. But her vomit is only deadly like half of the trial. And it's the survivors who give her that power.
She has to hit twice with a cooldown between the shots to do damage at range though.
