About Adepts

I think this was brought up a time ago but I think this needs to be talked about.

The Adept Achievements for Killer and Survivor are quite unbalanced in what you actually have to do to get it. As a Survivor you just need to escape. This can be achieved by doing nothing and escaping through the hatch (with a Key). Some perks make it easier (f.e. Self Care, DS or Balanced Landing) and some harder (No Mither or Object of Obsession) but generally you can do it even with ######### perks. As a Killer you not only need to 4k (I admit: my Hag Adept was a 3k but this works rarely and only on lower ranks!) but to DOUBLEPIP! This can be an absolute pain in the ass because some Killers are just not that strong without good perks but the Survivors will nonetheless bombard you with everything they have: Insta Heals, DS, DH, Adrenaline, fast boxes, Prove Thyself etc.

And this is not balanced at all. I'm not the person who says that a 4k has to be enough, because we all know how unfun an Ebony Mori can be, especially if the Killer tunnels. This has nothing to do with skill which the Adepts are about. But since the changes to the pipping requirements it is a lot harder to doublepip especially on higher ranks, which is not fair at all.

So here is my idea:

To get your Adept you need to escape + pip as Survivor and 4k + pip as Killer. This is still dependent on rank but not so much any more. And you need to work for this as Survivor too.


OK. Now some would say that to make it equal (and because it's an Achievement), you could add the condition to 2pip for the Survivors as well. But you have to remember that your recources for your emblems are limited (unhooks, gens, totems) so this might be too hard.


What do you say?

  • I don't get the impression it really needs to be balanced for both sides.. in that... the survivors are lucky their adepts are easier.

    If you actually play both sides, that is a non-issue... cause it isn't a survivor vs killer "mains" thing.

    You just need to double pip as killer to get them.. just wait for a rank reset and then do it.

    If you want to do them at the high ranks.. for your own personal gratification.. that is up to you, since no one will know it but yourself.

    The adepts aren't that hard to get for either side.
