Should nurse be nerfed?

It’s without arguement that nurse is easily the best killer, she can ignore obstacles and has strong pressure.


now, Should she be nerfed with how strong she is, or is it fine because of her skill cap?


If she should be nerfed, suggest stuff.

    I have honestly never thought I'd see the day when Sluzzy types something like this. I tip my hat to you for this post and will try to respect you a little more from now on.

    I am shocked though.

    They are a Nurse main. Sluzzy has actually never complained about Nurse before.

    Yea, I'm still shocked. I had to edit my post because I didn't agree with the ending of their post.

  • Nurse is fine.

  • Nurse has the most well designed and balanced power in the entire game by an absolute landslide. Chases are 100% exclusively determined by player skill versus player skill in mindgaming and nothing else out of either side’s control. That is the peak of skill expression for both sides. Range add-ons and third blink are bad design but they’re the only issues on an otherwise perfect killer.

  • She doesn't need a nerf. She needs a while rework.

    My point was. That's how people think all of DBD should be played. Hold W and pre drop like a bot and you're safe as can be. Nurse breaks that cycle.

    How the nurse is playing dictates how you play. You SHOULD hold W sometimes. Sometimes you should not. Theres several ways you need to play when facing nurse

    Break LOS as much as possible and force them to make reads. Then hold W and make distance when they make the wrong read basically.

    Watch her hand if she's a distance away. Double back towards her and watch her go sailing by you if it's a full blink and you know how far she's going. Read her body language. Is she about to prediction blink and go in to a tile ? Double back around the corner and make distance. Is she a blink to the corner nurse ? Keep going.

    Nurse is an exercise in reading the killer. And if they make a nice read. Give a respectful nod that they did and move along.

    Might as well save this somewhere you can easily copy paste it, with all these ‘nerf/rework Nurse’ threads popping up every day.

  • Nurse at the very least needs her addons reworked. The whole "break LOS and hold W" strat doesn't work against Nurses with the addons that give more distance/less fatigue. They effectively remove that sort of counterplay, which means there isn't much a survivor can do besides guess where the Nurse will blink, which is the sort of thing BHVR nerfed Spirit for.

  • A nerf or a rework yeah.

    Pick nurse, burn a lerys map offering and you will agree with me.

    So what you are saying is you need to burn a map for her to not be OP?

  • Until the game isn't survivor sided, the answer is still no. We need viable killers.

  • @Sluzzy said:

    No. She has already been heavily nerfed several times. All nerfing does is make the game "unfun" as we have already seen from the survivor side. She is already penalized twice for using her power - most killers have hardly any downside at all.

    There is way more Blights and Huntresses slaughtering everyone on the map. I see 9 of these other killers compared to one decent nurse.

    If Nurse is still too strong it means survivors are simply too weak. 4 slowdown perks on a high mobility killer is too oppressive.

    Nerf the killer meta and Nurse will feel better to verse.

    In case people have forgotten, she used to be a normal speed killer with 3 default blinks. No cooldowns except for fatigue and with addons she could have 5 or more blinks. Survivors have simply been nerfed so much. Ruin didn't even exist when she was released. The killer meta is too strong.

    As usual, perfectly on point. The problem isn't the killer (except a few add-ons), its the meta

  • She needs to be gutted like a fish

  • I'd just like to point how back when survivors were demanding that spirit be nerfed, there were people like myself pointing that survivors would never be happy with spirit being nerfed, and they would go after nurse next. And that's what's happening now. Nurse doesn't need a nerf, she already has the highest skill cap in the game, so a nurse main shouldn't be punished because they were committed enough to learn nurse. Survivors need to accept there are going to be some difficult killers to vs in the game, because you're not gonna like the outcome if the last two viable killers were nerfed.

  • They should give her a different power other than blink. It doesn't make sense on a "nurse" character.

    Give the blink power to Bubba instead.
