Missed opportunity: not giving the Plague a blindness status addon.

Its literally pointless on any other killer due to their short duration (wraith can actually get some use out of it due to the duration and his easy initial hit)

Or the killers having already be chase killers to actually get any use out of it. (huntress, clown. they're already in a chase if you're using your abilities. they're not going anywhere.)

Or like in legions case, a ridiculous requirement to have it activate (just m1 them mate).

Meanwhile it fits so well with the Plagues playstyle of sickness since being sick doesn't always mean you're going to be in a chase, it can be spread around to other survivors. It can be applied to objects. You could tie it to broken status, which might be a way to nudge survivors into cleansing more. Ugh there's just so many ways she could use it the status.

  • They would have just omitted the fountains from being effected by Blindness. Just like they did with the Pig's Boxes.

  • It's ridiculous that none of her add-ons really give any debuffs. The devs really missed a lot of opportunities with her.

  • Rather than aura blindness, why not increase the vfx on the survivor's side when sick?

    True blindness :)

  • +1 Yes please.

    I wouldn't want to see that. The fountains should stay visible. They're a way to get rid of the status afterall.

  • they said they didnt wanna give her Vile Purge any debuff's because "it would be too much like The Doctor"

    that being said, i disagree wholeheartedly,

    Huu interesting. Doctors only debuff is the exhaustion status.

  • Clown "I can blind, exhaust, mangle or hindered depend with my add-on!"

    Hag "I also have add-on that deafened survivor by trigger my trap!"

    Plague "......"

    Survivors would want to cleanse themselves before that could be a problem. Most choose to stay broken for as long as possible to not waste time and more importantly not give Plague her far stronger Corrupt Purge.

    The risk of staying broken is often the better option rather than be hit in the face with a filthy flamethrower. So blindness could work considering it would hurt the Plague by making it harder or less likely to use her true power.
