Survivors aren't to blame for Eruption

I have seen a lot of negativity towards survivors because of the eruption change that i don't agree.

Most sensible survivors complained about eruption because of the incapacitated effect and how unfun it was.

But most also tried to compensate the perk by either upping the regression or removing the cooldown.

The problem with eruption was how unfun and cheap it felt, but nobody wanted the perk to get gutted or wants killers to have all their perks gutted, that is complete untrue.

And while i still hate eruption for all this past months playing, i still want bhvr to reconsider and at least keep the regression as a flat value.

    I truly believe its a good approach that behavior is taking with regression from current rather than total progress. And hopefully they do it with pain res as well.


    Killers complain about one perk, dh. While survivors complain about not just eruption. But the gen kicking regression builds that we see time and time again consisting of the same 4 gen regression build perks like eruption, pain res, cob, overcharge that stacks and constantly being used.

    I truly believe eruption being gutted and changed into an info perk will finally take it out of the gen kick builds and into aura reading builds which i prefer more.

    People told me I was crazy when I said pain res what the next perk to be asked to be nerfed, and I love you so much for proving them wrong. Its a start at the very least.

    I don't agree with you at all. Yeah stacking regression is annoying but its also a necessary part of the game. And making those perk less reliable is never a good feeling.

    I like reliable perks, playing with survivor or killer.

    And PR is a good perk design wise, rewards advancing the game and not stalling a game for 30 min.

    When the only complain i can say about the perk is that beneficts campers, i think that it is a small complaint.

    And survivors technically can counter that with other perks like beakdown or sabos

    Of course not. Devs are the ones making the decisions at the end of they day.

    "The problem with eruption was how unfun and cheap it felt, but nobody wanted the perk to get gutted or wants killers to have all their perks gutted, that is complete untrue."

    I wouldn't say it's completely untrue. There are enough around and I've seen my fair share on this forum (Twitter seems much worse). That think if a killer looks in their direction it's too OP and should be nerfed. TBF there are killer players like that towards survivors too. But, yes usually that sentiment if from players who rarely play the other side.

    I mean of course there are people like that on both sides. Just don't think that it is an healthy mind set and i bet most people think of both sides, because i also bet most people have played both sides.

    I moreso have a problem with seeing the same build rather than just stacking. PR is honestly a good balanced perk. But its just using the same gen regression build on top of one another that limits the variability with killers playstyle. I wouldnt be mad if PR stayed the same tbh. But it just gets to a point where it gets tiresome seeing the same builds

    Where did you get the energy that there is a huge amount of hate towards the survivors because of the Eruption change? Literally everyone is acknowledging the fact, that BHVR overnerfed it. But no one is blaming survivors for that. If anything people are blaming BHVR for overnerfing another perk instead of simply removing the incapacitated and letting the regression as it is. But no they have to give this perk the Ruin treatment making it very useless.

    I am not saying everyone, but i definitely seen a lot of post and comments of people blaming survivors and acting like survivors are on the hunt for all of killers best perks and stuff like that.

    I just think that type of reaction is not helpful or truthful.

    I want bhvr to not touch the regression part of the perk, and again hated the perk so much that i refused to use it as killer because it felt cheap.
