Because the in game event is just a copy and paste job.
Even the stuff they're doing out of matches is just a variation of stuff they could already do. Such as rotating the shrine of secrets, giving log in rewards, and reskinning default cosmetics + items.
None of the upcoming event is effortful, and if this is BHVR putting in extra effort. Then I don't have much hope for the future of events in this game. Honestly, indie titles with much smaller teams have pulled off much better events than this.
BHVR worked overtime to ######### it up. That's the Extra Effort they put in.

In my honest opinion noed is the only perk that I think needs a rework. Why be rewarded for losing? The perk should give a increased speed increase with a 50-75% weapon hit recovery.
Because it doesn't reward for playing bad. It punishes survivors for not doing their optional second objective. You chose not to do totems so endure your punishment. Or you can evade punishment and open a exit gate and get out.

If "everyones" running Dead Hard then surely as killer you shouldnt swing to early and bait it. Its pretty simple.
Imagine trying to bait DH when its being used for distance

I think it's fine. Franklin's didn't help you win anyways. It was just a toxic perk meant to ruin other people's fun. There is quite literally no purpose in running it outside of ruining other people's fun.
"Ruining the other person's fun?" I'm sorry but since when are the roles responsible of the other roles fun when they don't even care about each others fun?

Guessing is not counterplay lol and Spirit does not guess when she can literally hear where the survivors are.
Source: Have played as and against Spirit more than 3 times.
Please do bestow your godly knowledge upon me on how exactly to counter Spirit? Maybe another recycled argument that can be debunked simply by saying Spirit can hear you, is invisible, and moves like 3x as fast as survivors in phase?
Scratch marks aren't dependable she relies on them to point her in the proper direction. Oh and by the way survivors have control over there scratch mark trails, they can do this by letting go of Shift which also stops your footstep sounds. Your injured? Iron Will. She has Stridor? Its a shame Yin and Yang cannot exist without each other.
Throwing pallets down early isn't counterplay. Isn't the point of chases to buy teammates time to do gens and doesn't throwing the pallet down and forcing her to break it buy you and teammates time?
As a Spirit main, survivors tend to run obvious paths because they've gone brain dead to looping that they don't stop to think. If I'm at a jungle gym, I simply stay away from obvious looping paths because that's what she expects. If I'm at a unmindgameable loop I just throw the pallet down to both confuse her and force her to waste more of her power. Your at loop with a dropped pallet, count to 3 if you haven't gotten hit, she's faking it and you need to get away from the loop.
I'm not a basic survivor player that calls killers broken because shift + w isn't effective. I find shift + w counterplay boring af, because its not skillful and involves no risk decisions, because unlike most survivor's I like using my brain to outplay others in a pvp.
Now if you'll excuse I gotta get 3 heals and escape with Dwight and than murder someone with Spirits grandfather

What exactly is the “purpose of her kit?” To be completely unfair and give survivors no reliable counterplay against her?
Just make her intermittently appear while phase walking and buff the passive phasing so that The Spirit knows when it’s happening and can mindgame with it.
"To be completely unfair and give survivors no reliable counterplay against her?"
That statement literally says that you have gone brain dead to just holding Shift + W and playing Ring Around The Pallet. People that play Spirit such as myself understand how to counter Spirit simply because we know how she thinks and what information she needs to track survivor's. It's called "Using Your Brain" something your suppose to do to outplay the other person in a PvP game.
But it doesn't matter I guess. It's okay for killer's to guess but it's bad when survivor's have to guess

Huh? What is this even supposed to mean.
Does it matter whether we label it a "rework" or a "nerf"? Sounds like semantics to me...
The purpose of Spirits kit is to trick survivors. Reworking her kit is nerfing her, which she's going to need a buff to compensate.
-
There's just no way to rework or nerf Spirit without nerfing her, and if you nerf her you have to buff her
-
As a Spirit main, I just don't see how you nerf her or give her counterplay without defeating the purpose of her kit. As a survivor I love playing against her because she's not Shift + W and go brain dead

@CornMoss said:
Make it so when she phases she is deaf, buff other things accordingly (maybe let her see blood at all times). This way it is now her guessing what the survivor is doing and the survivor is guessing what she is doing, also survivors can walk to hide scratch marks and misdirect her.
Or instead of making her deaf, make it so she cannot hear any noise other than grunts of pain and make it so those grunts of pain are not directional. (this means the sound does not get louder the closer you get to the survivor, merely lets the spirit know they are closer by)
There is no way to nerf Spirit without defeating the purpose of her kit. Giving some kind of tell would be like nerfing Nurse to where she can't blink through objects, or making clowns gas not slow survivor's.
The only way to fix Spirit is to delete her, but I doubt BHVR would do that

I'm at my breaking point, I feel like in most of my games I have to run the killer while doing objectives and unhook ppl at the same time. I'm just looking for a build where it will prioritize my survival cause I end up dying trying to be hero and save teammates whilst trying to pump out gens by my lonesome cause people have a phobia of generators.
Iron Will, Resilience, Bond (I can't stress how underrated this perk is for solo q).
These are the 3 men perks I use, when solo q

I'm new to the game, so he wouldn't seem "old" to me but i feel like he is near perfect. His addons especially the tombstone piece is really fun to use.
When the perk 'Ruin' was nerfed, it hurt Michael badly. If they hadn't nerfed Ruin, Mikey would probably be the most balanced killer in the game.

But isn't that the exact inverse situation vs iron will when you aren't prepared for it, where the killer doesn't know where you are and there is nothing they can do about it now they just have to guess
We live on a DBD generations were survivor's are suppose to have all the information they need to win, but killer's have to guess.
We also live in a generation that Spirit is complained about, but survivor's don't complain about being mindgamed at a jungle gym which is pretty much the same thing

If you can loop a Spirit with Stridor while injured, then I'll agree.
And plz share your winning technique
(dropping strong pallets early doesn't count)
Imma harp on this a bit, but why is "Dropping a pallet" not considered a counter when the purpose of chases is to buy time so teammates can do gen? This is one of the most effective things you can do to Rin to throw her off or force her to break a pallet to buy time, yet this is frowned upon as a counter because it doesn't meet survivor's style of counterplay

Scratch marks, breathing and any other noises such as grass rustling or footsteps.
So you want to take away her main source of tracking when scratch marks aren't reliable due to the fact that it takes ages for fresh scratch marks to show up, breathing and footsteps can barley be heard over ambient noises, and not every map has grass?
-
@Quake said:
By the way....She will get nerfed at some point.This is 100% guarantfuckingteed.
So,killer mains,instead of lame arguments give constructive suggestions so that Rin won't end up alongside Billy in your tier lists.
Than how do you suggest nerfing her without defeating the purpose of her kit?
If you nerf her the way the survivor community wants to, you defeat and butcher the purpose of her kit. It would be like nerfing Nurse to where she can't blink through objects, or making Wraith stay visible while he's cloaked.

@deckyr said:
which survivor perks from dead by daylight are true to your abilities in real life?
for me it's probably
- iron will - i don't vocalise when injured. several piercings done and not a peep the whole time
- alert - weirdly, i can tell when the front door of the house gets opened because of the way the air pressure moves. anyone else got something like this?
- up the ante - known for always getting rare drops in video games, rolling high on need/greed. my friends get upset with me when we compete on loot in ffxiv because i always win it lol
- autodidact - i'm a fast learner, rapidly iterating and improving on new skills in a short period of time.
maybe it doesn't have to be only survivor perks. if anyone has a history of spontaneously causing technical difficulties for electrical devices nearby then, by all means, tell me you have surge 😂 i've definitely heard that's a thing for some people.
Iron Will and Calm Spirit: for some unknown reason I have a very very high pain tolerance, that I just don't react to pain, or fear.
Sprint Burst, but longer than 3 seconds

@piggygooik said:
we all know that spirit is a really annoying killer and is in need of a change
one thing I would really want is that they give her own chase music but when she start phasing the chase music changes to be more aggressive to show she is made and gaining on you real fast
give me your change ideas
Problem is, you can't nerf Spirit without defeating the purpose of her kit. Everybody wants some kind of tell tale when she's phasing and that defeats the purpose of her kit. It's like nerfing Nurse to where she can't blink through objects

Shirtless Dwight or high school Dwight.

@Bonquiqui414 said:
Considering how good wraith is right now and this add on gives no negatives like scratched mirror Myers and Amanda’s letter piggy, I don’t think it should be this strong with zero drawbacks. You can’t even play immersed if you’re bad at looping when he can just walk around the map at Mach speed and easily find survivors trying to hide. You can use it at a survivor camping a pallet and you’ll be at a huge advantage since you can read their every move. Anyone else feel the same?
Define "No Drawback's" when 5% of his add-ons affect the bell and 95% of them only have an effect when he's cloaked?

Ugh.., I chose the wrong time to get bank into the game

Someone mind explaining to me what this autoban system is?

@POLBOY said:
yeah, perks that can be deleted from killers at any point of the game should be as strong as possible.
share your thoughts below ;)
Most of them are besides Undying, Thrill, and Blood Favor (which makes 0 sense why it's a hex with a cooldiwn).
The problem comes from totem placement and how survivor's either spawn on them or they are hidden in obvious places.
-
@GannTM said:
There should be a restriction of using a pallet or window for like a full second after using Dead Hard. That would remove the DH for distance BS and make it less annoying.
This was my intial idea. To lock survivor interactions for a solid 2-3s to stop the DH abuse and to make it more skillful
-
@Huge_Bush said:
They hate her because she takes away some of the control that survivors have during a chase. Survivors hate anything that causes them to work harder or more, which is why they complain about perks like NOED and BBQ. They don't want to get off of gens to hide in a locker for three seconds, nor do they want to cleanse totems. All they want to do is kite a killer through an obstacle course that is designed for them to have every advantage.

@Blueberry said:
They hate her because they don't understand how to play against her. Instead of learning they find it easier to come here and complain.
@I_am_Negan said:
Because the ones that complain don't want to think before they act.
They run at her when she stands there and then complain about it when it's their fault.
They can't just sit and camp pallets.
They don't understand break LOS when she is just standing still and make their getaway.
If they took the time to play her they would know how to beat her.
These comments pretty much sum up why Spirit is hated. It why I've been saying since the start of her hate train Spirit is not the problem. The problem comes from the fact that survivor's have gone so brain dead to holding Shift + W and dropping a pallet that they don't have a thought process anymore. Spirit is one of the few killer's I enjoy playing because she feels like PvP to me. Yeah sure I'm 100% guessing, but at least me being a Spirit main gives me the advantage on how she thinks so that I can turn the favor of the chase into my favor.
-
First you need to understand how Spirit thinks, and the best way to do this is by playing her.
1. If she's not phasing throw the pallet down. This will force her to either brake the pallet, or determine if the loop is mindgameable to her standards. If she breaks the pallet "leave". If she doesn't count to 3, and walk in one direction. If you don't get hit than shes fake phasing and you need to run/walk in the opposite direction.
2. If she's phasing than you need to scramble your sounds. Run in a circle to scramble your scratch marks and sounds. Double back over your scratch marks. Fast vault than slow vault back.
3. Be unpredictable! Most of the times spirit will see scratch marks leading to a safe area which is when spirit will be like. "Well those scratch marks are going towards the shack and the window is right there"

The forum is full of people claiming there's counterplay to anything, and the majority refuse to elucidate.
You can't just say 'there's counterplay', you have to say what it is.
I can't use my brain for the whole community. From perks to legit holding Shift + W can counter her.
Instead of just waiting throw the pallet down to get the stun throw it down to deny her fake phasing potential. But of course to survivor's this is considered 'boring' as if killers are just bots and chases are all about survivor's.
As for perks IW does wonders against her. "But Stridor counters IW" yet Yin and Yang are capable of doing things the other can't.
Like I said, I can't use my brain for the whole community.

Damn, guess all those hours of learning how to loop, how to counter each killer, how to be as time efficient as possible, how to maximize chase time, and other skills just don't count as skill :/
I don't consider looping skillful because, I don't sense or feel myself using my brain outplay the killer, I'm just going off of information that's given to me.
I'm at a mind-gameable loop. Oh well, let me wait and peek around the corner fits spoonfed counterplay instead of basing everything off of expirence.
But God forbid a killer that actually makes you make a educated guess, is problematic because I'm not getting the direct counterplay information I need in order to loop the killer for 5 gens.

I am not about to defend spirit. I just want to know why you, you in particular, doesn't like spirit. What are your personal reasons/experiences for why you hate spirit.
For me, I don't. I main her.
I generally don't hate Spirit. She's one of the killers that I enjoy playing against because she more of a "think outside the box" and "take risk" killer rather than hold Shift + W and flick your mouse backwards for spoon fed counterplay.

How is it a challenge when there is zero counterplay at all? How would it be fun when there is absolutely nothing you can do but just be on the hook no matter what you do. On hawkins by the way the most killer sided map in the game in my opinion as I main killer myself. I like going against good killers. I don't see how it's amazingly fun to go against a killer who already has minimal counterplay, and stacking expensive headphones on top of Stridor.
She does have a counterplay. Problem is, the survivor community is use to holding Shift + W and dropping a pallet, that they don't wanna use their brain to think outside the box.
Upset that Stridor makes her easier and nullifies IW? Yin cannot exist without Ysng, and they are capable of things that the other is not.
-
@Zozzy said:
as long as iron will is in the game then stridor must also exist.
Literally what I've been trying to tell people. Stridor was designed to counter Iron Will. They're like Yin and Yang, can't exist without each other.

Rather than focus on making her weaker they could try making her more difficult to play/learn, which would make her fit with the other strongest killers better
Enlighten me on how to make Spirit harder to play? I'm kinda interested in your idea(s).
Because from my pov, sounds are always breaking and scratch marks are unreliable. I can't see a way to make her more difficult.

The purpose of No Mither is to pick yourself up off the ground, yet the killer knows you have it from the very start of the match and will not slug you.
You know why they don't slug? It's called expirence. Something you gain.., it's not even worth explaining never mind

this isn't a rant about why i hate the spirit, just curios why it hasnt already been nerfed

Because theirs no way to nerf Spirit without defeating the purpose of her kit.
Everybody wants some kind of indication about when she's phasing, and that defeats the purpose of her kit.

@Northener1907 said:
I played as her 3 matches, 4 hooks only. She is really weird gameplay and hard.
I need your tips for get good
As a reference here's a fatigue time table
1 blink = 2 seconds of fatigue
Additional blinks = .5s of fatigue
Swinging after a blink hit or miss = .5s of fatigue
Help tips
If you think your gonna over blink, look downwards to cancel/shorten blink distances. Though be warned of maps such as meat plant and being near the basement as it will blink you downstairs.
You can use your blink charges as a mind-game to trick survivor's. If you wanna get a reaction out of survivor's you can use one, and just charge your second blink until fatigue to try and get a reaction out of survivor's.
Pallets and windows are your best friends as survivor's lock themselves in animation, quickly get to the other side of the window/pallet and get the hit on them as they are stick in animation
-
@Northener1907 said:
I played as her 3 matches, 4 hooks only. She is really weird gameplay and hard.
I need your tips for get good
Right now your main focus needs to be learning her blink ranges. Go into a match, find a area to blink around and just try blink to objects and back to your starting point increasing distance as you get more familiar with her ranges.
Don't worry about piping or dripping because once you master Nurse you'll rank you really fast.
Once you get use to Nurses blink ranges you've ready to start chasing. You need to study each and every survivor's pathing and how they are reacting to you. Are running in straight line? Are they bank juking? Do they run behind a LoS blocker and than run back? You always wanna predict and adjust your approach based on survivor's actions.
I'm a former Nurse main that learned her on console per-nerf.

I feel the game is still survivor sided, and the reasoning why is why I stopped playing after 2.3k hours.
Killer is still stressful at and I hate the fact that slow down is still the meta for killer.
Survivor is too brain-dead easy, and not even as much skill as killer.

Well. I did say not necessarily more gen times. As much as having to find parts to fix them. Looping isn't the problem. As much as SOME loops are way to strong. Especially when chained together..But IMO most shacks are to strong. And I really feel like shacks should be like dead dog. Where you can break out a wall near the window. That shack is VERY well done IMO...You basically have to HOPE your mind game works at shacks..You nailed it when you said you have to hope the survivor messes up. Double window LT walls are way to strong too IMO. Unless they suck...You basically have to hope Tofu tech works on them.
I learned how to deal with LT walls from Ardetha (he does personal coaching), but you are right about them being next to each other is absurd.

@BrokenSouI said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/245150/how-would-you-fix-killer-stress
Slow down the game. And make generators take longer. Rather it's repair times. Or finding multiple parts to fix generators. Right now you can take your first chase and lose 1-2 gens before your first hook. There's a reason killers hook camp and slug.
Also maybe weakening places like shack. Or double L and T windows...Or lessening window blocking to 2 vaults.
Other then that.. Nothing..Killer is inherently stressful if you let it be. You have to know where 4 survivors are at any time...Which gens to pressure..When to slug..Paying attention to survivors and their tendencies to see which mind games may work, etc etc. It's a LOT to process
While I strongly agree that survivor objectives is the main source of killer stress, I believe increasing gen times will only make survivor more boring.
I would propose instead of increasing gen times, give survivor's a secondary objective prior to gens. For example every 25% progress gens overheat and become too hot to interact with so survivor's have to find a bottle of oil to pour into the gen to cool it off, than it becomes intractable again. At the same time I believe this will shift the killer meta and give other perks a chance to shine.
I don't think looping is the problem, I think the problem comes from the fact that killers have to hope and pray that survivor's make a mistake or that they are out positioned to win the chase, instead of being rewarded for playing well (let's exclude Sally and Rin from this).

Decreased snares from 10 to 5. Pretty much It's worse than clowns bottles now, since they have absolutely no effect on you when you're awake. Simply waking up against him makes Freddy a basic m1 b!tch.
But wait! Here's the big one boys. The one we've been waiting for. Are you ready?? His DREAM PALLETS have been reduced to 7!!! Finally. That $h!t was way too op. He can no longer cover an entire tile of The Game map with fake pallets.
Congratulations, you have successfully reduced killer variety in red ranks. Keep up the good work.
Edit: P.S. Can we have the old Freddy back now?
This is why I've stopped playing DBD. Killers have to show an extraordinary amount of skill but survivor can remain brain dead and have no risks.
I'm just curious as why they made Black Box a watered down Blood Warden.

@ClownIsUnderrated said:
I'm generally curious as to how many people on these forums still play DBD, and who here doesn't play anymore. I recently made the decision that I didn't want to play DBD anymore because it doesn't seem like the game is gonna get better thanks to the bad balancing decisions, and how bad things have been since the Halloween Event. So if you still play DBD would like to know why, and if you don't then I imagine it might be the same with my reasoning.
After 2.3k hrs I have quit playing DBD. Why?
1. The devs making poor balance desicions
2. Despite me being a killer main, killer is just too damn stressful, and ever since I stopped playing I've been less stressed and happier.
3. Survivor is too brain dead easy. The killers I enjoy playing against are the problematic killers such as Spirit and Slinger, because their counterplay requires brain power and not holding Shift + W and peeking for spoonfed counterplay
4. As easy and skillless survivor is, survivor is rewarded for playing well, while only 3% of the killer roaster is rewarded for playing well.
Only reason why I'm still here on the forums is because I wanna see the devs ######### up a game with a lot of potential
