  • Spirit does require some skill to play and I think its absurd to say otherwise. The problem is that when it comes to her power there is no skill expression playing AGAINST her. There is almost no choice you can make based on your personal skill as a survivor that can help you against spirit. You are not "trying to figure out where shes going" you are making a choice and hoping it's right.

  • I highly doubt they're going to make any more changes to Wraith and Huntress' kits but 100% Huntress is going to get an addon rework. They've already said that they want every killer to have the same amount and distribution of addons and Huntress doesnt fit that.

  • It is not the killers job to keep survivors safe from ######### people who want to farm people to death. If you farm someone and they get killed that's on you, not the killer.

  • The new cosmetics kinda suck so unless you like then I wouldnt bother. You don't get anything does picking up the crown anyway. Hope more people realise that so I dont have half a team running around doing nothing for 5 minutes

  • Firstly to all the people commenting about how they don't have the but so Scott's the problem; congrats you just learned how bugs work I hope your parents are proud. The bugs arent constantly in effect, they randomly happen in games and when they do it can be disorienting. And it also seems to be literally any sound effect can just be muted cause I got quick and quiet for free in multiple games.

    Secondly the maps main issue is that its disorienting to walk around and it's just not fun when you know where survivors are but you have to walk very far away to get to stairs so you can go up to them. There are 4 sets of stairs on the map one of which the killer has to actively put into the game. Take into consideration that those 4 stairs are on each corner and you can get gens that dont spawn on corners. It's frustrating to play against as a killer to know where someone is and have no agency to do anything because they'll be gone before you get there

    Lastly Pyramid Head feels clunky, not bad, just really clunky. The cooldown for his ranged attack, while probably balanced, is frustrating. It does not feel fun to be stunned for 3 seconds for using an ability successfully.

    The key point that Scott is trying to make, which a lot of people seem to not listen to, isn't that playing killer right now sucks or is bad. He literally says it's not a balance issue. It's a frustration issue. Hes not having fun playing the role.

  • Definitely not good enough to justify me prestieging. peepoSad

  • Good riddance. I had the Glass Splinter pop up so many times when I was levelling my Pig. Cant wait to use an offering on my Pig to play Pig smile.


    I get why people liked them but that bug made me despise them so much.

    Fixated is much faster. The downside is you have to move while walking and you can be seen easier and then we have those pesky Hag traps too. If you are not injured at tier III, you walk 20% faster, UE tier III you creep around at 100% of walking speed...but it did seem to me at tier III I crept around a little bit faster than walking but could have just been my perception. In theory, walking and UE tier III should be the same. So fixated is a good deal faster.

    Tier 3 Urban feels a lot faster than walking because it basically just speeds up the animation. So your movement animation is faster than walking but the speed is the same.

  • 100%. From a gameplay standpoint hes my favourite killer since Hag released. Plus who doesn't want to YEETHAW all over the place. Also it helps that Zarina is probably my favourite survivor design after Feng, so that'll be fun.

  • I got them all. And trust me they really are as bad as they sound, outside of green ranks. If you're red rank your best strategy to get Adept killer achievements is to just depip back to a better rank and hope for the best.

  • I can recognise that this is bait, but it still stings the soul.

  • If you're looking for a DBD alternative it's probably a good choice. If you dont mind the wait and the huge price jump there'll be Project Resistance in April.

  • I've been playing since release. A ######### crutch perk getting nerfed isn't going to be enough to get me to quit.

  • "I am happy to have a civil discussion" your optimism and hope for this forum is quite adorable. Unfortunately you wont get that here.

  • Plenty of killer players stopped using Ruin a while ago so for a lot of us this isn't going to change anything. Use Corrupt for the early stall and get over it. This change isn't going to ruin the game or ruin the experience. And the test build has been out for not even day. We have weeks before this goes live so there is plenty of time for BHVR to make changes.

  • Tapp because I had previously bought Pig with auric cells and I wanted to have the full collection. What a mistake that was since I still get Pigs splinters in my blood web.

  • I hope the changes arent too rough. Lerys is my favourite map

  • Legions main strength is getting the first hit and then locating other survivors. Without perks and addons Legion is probably the second worst killer in the game. Add in some perks to make up for their weaknesses and you've got a decent but still low tier killer.

    You can go for a full stall build if you want or you can go for the generic M1 killer build.

    Also like was said previously the emblem system isn't the best indicator of a killers strength because you can be punished for doing good and rewarded for doing poorly. This is on top of the fact that the emblem system is designed as a blanket performance indicator. Billy is put on the same scale as Legion.

    Billy tends to have difficulty getting both Malicious and Chaser emblems because his chases last a little longer than 15 seconds and he tends to get instadowns.

    Legion is so good at doing both of these things. You can end a game without getting a single hook and still have 2 iridescent emblems. Legion gets his first hit in chases very quickly and because they swap targets they're constantly getting into new chases and causing new injuries. Plop on top of that the natural stall of mending plus Thanatophobia and you'll easily get a good Gatekeeper emblem.

    Up until red ranks its takes at most 12 points to pip. That means you can go straight from brown ranks to red rank 4 as Legopn without getting a single HOOK, let alone a single kill. And even if you get gen rushed as long as you get those 2 iridescents, which you're practically guaranteed, you'll always safety pip.

    Legion is good for ranking up because the emblem system caters to their playstyle really well. That doesn't make them a good killer and more shows that the emblem system for killers is deeply flawed. There needs to be a distinction for killers in the emblem system. Killers are not like survivors. They arent cookie cutter cosmetics they are all unique, except you Bubba, and they all have their own playstyles.


    I got a bit distracted so TLDR; Legion isn't good but they arent bad.

    I refuse to think nemesis is good since it helps object of obsession players loop you. I’m putting him in B without pwyf or nemesis.

    I'm sorry Bubba is in B tier WITHOUT that combo? Is there something else that's made Bubba a viable killer then? Cause hes always been the less skilled, less reliable and less useful Billy.

  • Legion is mid C tier at worst. Clown is definitely not D tier. Bubba and Huntress are hard to place because they're very situational (Bubba's really only good because of the Nemesis/PWYF AFAIK and Huntress is an incredibly map dependent killer).

  • Just change the " " Killer to be based on kills instead of pips? Cant be that difficult of a change and it's not like anyone cares about each pip having their own special name lmao. Especially when it makes no sense that you can get a merciless killer without killing anyone.

  • Meg and Spirit. Spirits just boring and Megs ######### ugly. That's really my only argument for Meg.

  • Surprisingly enough, some people actually play this game for gameplay... shocking I know.

    In all seriousness though if someone doesn't want to farm with you accept that ######### and move on. Sometimes I'm in a ######### mood and just want to enjoy the game and farming is the exact opposite of that.

    Also hot take the 4th level was easier than the previous two levels

  • I think I had a stroke reading this. No.

  • You dodge new players. New players have longer queue times. New players stop playing. Player base stagnates.

    Queue times are long enough as is let's not give self absorbed twats the tools to make them even longer.

  • The build I'm using is just a basic Enduring Spirit fury plus slowdown perks and addons. I usually go Ruin and Thana and then take the Legion pin or the Yellow pin (I forget its name).

    Your second addon is pretty much up to your own preference, I usually run the duration addons cause it gives me a higher chance of finding the next survivor during killer instinct. However I've also found that the Iridescent Button works quite nicely as it helps you to easily stack up Spirit fury. If you use the E+SF combo it's important to just tank every pallet when in Frenzy, if you hit them and they stun you with Spirit Fury up it's a guaranteed down.

    Legions definitely harder to be successful with but hes still 100% viable if you're looking to rank up. Just try to find the build and playstyle that works for you and stick to it.

  • Unpopular opinion but Legions better in the new patch. Losing build diversity sucks but if you switch up your build hes pretty much better. People are just too stubborn to adapt.

  • That's a very fair point that could be a good balancing of it

  • Balanced was unhealthy on quite a few maps purely because of the stagger reduction. Removing the speed boost will not fix anything.

  • Lobby Dodgers are the reason it was removed. It's been said multiple times by multiple people in multiple threads both here and on reddit. It wont be coming back

  • Bubba because he is my baby boy and I feel bad mistreating him. Please help Bubba.

  • If you think the nerfs are extreme and that Spirit is gonna be garbage now then I have some really bad news for you. Just like with the Nurse nerfs these Spirit changes are only gonna affect bad Spirits.

    The changes were level headed and correct and its absurd to think these are extreme changes.

  • If you have to play Nurse for a daily just use the plaid flannel. Having that indicator makes her not only much easier to play but also makes her feel more satisfying to play. Theres no point trying to torture yourself with the other addons when theres an addon specifically designed for new Nurse players.

  • I think Spirit weebs have actually taken over as the most entitled group in this community. Survivor mains are shook

  • It feels pointless to talk about this on the forums when content creators have already done excellent videos on the topic, and when people dont want to have a civil discussion about it. OhTofu and Scott Jund have both done a video on why people dont like Spirit.

  • It's probably got to do with renegotiating contracts for the IP. The contracts probably never stated BHVR could bring them to Switch/Console so they have to cover their ground legally to avoid lawsuits etc.

  • Licensing fees are most likely why they need to be tied to real money purchases. The contract probably stipulates that a portion of money earned from the characters goes to the copyright holder. Since no money is earned from iridescent shards they're probably not allowed in the contract.

  • I only attempt adept killer achievements after rank reset. Im not good enough at killer to get a double pip on killers I dont frequently play.

  • Feng for survivor because she's very pretty and I like most of her cosmetics. (Not you ugly sports wear outfit...you're ######### ugly)

    Hag because I enjoyed her story and the look of her plus she's got two of my favourite cosmetics currently in the game; Cabbage Patch and Snake Charmer. Also her mori is just so brutal and fantastic and I love it.
