The Ash chapter

Karltastisk Karltastisk
in General Discussions

The only good thing about that chapter was Ash himself and breaking grounds by bringing voice lines into the game (english atleast).

But all of his perks and even the character himself is broken. If you didnt know he is so loud i believe he is the loudest character in the entire game. He is so loud infact that iron will don't even work on him! It is reduced to david king volume in grunts. (And yes it was tier 3)

But his perks! They are all so underwhelming. Mettle of man was fun, but i must admit broken. But i didnt want this when i supported the nerf :( This perk needs an overhaul. Maybe you could give yourself the borrowed time effect if you get saved from the hook so if you get farmed by a survivor without borrowed time you still have a chance.

And flip flop. This perk is so close to being good but still situational. just change the conversion rate of the perk to 100% and stop it at 50% as it is now. so you dont need the full 95% to get half the wiggle bar filled. (Altough i feel it could be buffed to atleast 60%)

And buckle up... This perk is like if deja vu was sold to us with the next chapter. It is super situational and super useless. I honestly don't know what was the thought process on this one. If it had had like a sprint burst effect for both parties on recovery i would understand or the downed was fully healed when brought up from downstate it could be seen in some games, but this. Never seen someone use it unless it was for the adept. It should be changed to one of my two suggestions.

And i sincerly hope that this chapter gets a well deserved rework/buff soon and not as late as year 4+

    If you do not like Bruce Campbell or Ash Williams or do not want to collect every Character, you cannot buy the Ash-DLC anymore. It is basically useless.

    I think that his Perks need some Tweaks. I feel that Buckle Up should be Baseline (the recovery status, not the Aura Read), because it would help a lot with Solo Gameplay, because you know if that guy on the ground actually recovered or did not bother.

    I mean, maybe his Perks will be buffed. I doubt it would be possible with Mettle of Man, maybe reducing the Protection Hits needed to two, but even then this Perk would not be worth a Perk Slot.

    When it comes to your suggestions, I like them. Not sure about the Sprint Burst tho, Movement Speed is really important, and giving both Survivors a Sprint Burst can be really frustrarting for a Killer who only slugged because of DS.


    EDIT: Btw. Iron Will works perfectly on Ash. But if Stridor is involved, he will indeed grunt.

    Hmm. I haven't played Ash since the two small hotfixes, but before that i could clearly hear ash grunt, wheeze and cough like his life depended on it with iron will while injured. I will have to check this again ;P


    EDIT: Ok so iron will does work on him, but he is still so loud when healthy its ridicoulus :P
