Can Blights speed addons get the billy treatment?
billy use to have an uncommon and a rare addon that both increased speed but eventually one was reworked and the other made iridescent.
Can blight get the same change? double speed just makes all 50/50s a 70/30 in blights favour and just removes half the skill from playing him. its wayyy more common than it should be to get hit in situations where you wouldnt have if that addon combo didnt exist. its already been nerfed in the past but its still too strong. blight should only have 1 speed addon, its not like he would be weak without 2

I think Iri Engravings is more powerful than either of Billy's old Engravings addons (although I might be wrong), but I agree that Blight should only have 1 speed increase addon, if he even needs to keep one at all. I feel like even without Rat or Crow, he would definitely still be an A tier killer and maybe be in a healthier spot than now.
I absolutely despised how busted Blight was for several years, but I'm not entirely sure he needs more nerfs after the 4.4m/s and losing tokens on pallet break changes. Is he still an overpowered monster in his current state? Kind of an open question as I've been playing less DBD and don't see him as often anymore.
Old billy engravings were weaker combined than current iri engravings.
But even though the comparison does not work that well, you are correct. Double speed is still the default best addon combo on bleet even after the rework, that's a bit boring.
They should bring back both engravings. everyone just uses iri doom and boots
after the terrible overheat rework that billy mains had to suffer through, i'd rather see billy be the absoulte best character for years on end while blight gets to rot in a ditch.
Well one engravings addon was removed because Billies base saw speed was increased without the charge time increase.
yeah but the thing is billy NEEDED speed addons because his base was too slow, old billy was ACTUALLY ROUGH to play without it.
Blight is amazing even without speed, couldnt say the same with billy.
the 4.4 and pallet break nerf doesnt change the fact his speed addons are too strong. them 2 nerfs affect him OUT of power, double speed is a nerf that affects IN power, so they are NOT mutually exclusive
the comparison was billy had 2 speed addons and now he has 1, blight has 2 addons, and he should have 1. its a perfect comparison
So your argument is we need more 50/50s, and that we should nerf one of the most skilled killers in the game who's already been pretty gutted?
Uh, you think Blight has been gutted? Certainly Blight takes skill to be good at, but he's also pretty universally recognized as one of the top 5 strongest killers in the game, usually still being ranked number 2 behind Nurse despite his nerfs. 4.4m/s and 2 tokens of cooldown on pallet breaks does make a difference, but his power (especially with double speed) is still incredibly oppressive and that has not changed at all. 2 tokens lost at a pallet break means it delays his rush by 4s, which isn't really than much when you consider he'll catch up to you in no time at all. That tier of killer does need nerfs, just like weaker killers need buffs.
If you think blight is gutted you need a HARD reality check, respectfully.
Billy's speed became a basekit feature. 🤔
Compared to his former self he is. He's probably number 4 in the game right now maybe still number 3. But the excessive hate that blight gets compared to other killers is my problem. There are plenty of other killers who need nerfs before him. Remember that SOMEONE has to be the best killer in the game, and who do you want that someone to be?
Compared to his former self he is, he's nowhere near as strong as he used to be.
He's not number 2 anymore barely number 3, out of the time 6 ish killers in the game he's by far the most map dependent as of right now since the changes.
Sure his power is still a very powerful and opressive chase tool. But it's no where near the chase strength of many other killers these days, and the killer takes far more skill to pull off than any other killer who's just as powerful in chase.
Okay so if we are nerfing killers based on the tier of strength, who else needs a nerf? Would you agree that the First and Vecna 2 need nerfs? They are just as strong if not stronger than blight.
I thought "Vecna 2" is the First...
exactly 😂 they’ve already nerfed blight enough making him 4.4
yeah but the difference is billy sucked without speed, blight is still good without it. blights WANT it, they dont NEED it.
Survivors mains simply want to face a M1 only Trapper with 15 hours, anything further is too strong needs to be nerfed.
