  1. They are killing this game. Let me get this straight 1 killer has to constantly pressure 4 survivors, while survivors have a whole team to rely on. Yet for the past year all the devs have done is nerf killers but then give survivors perks like the boons, which can be used however many times the survivor wants to. This game is so unbalanced. I’m done.

  2. Yet another killer getting their legs broken before the race even starts. THIS is why I said they stack everything in favor of survivors including feedback since they outnumber killer players 4 to 1.

  3. Maybe snuffing refers to the blue zone you can see as surv , can you see as killer too? If so maybe location restriction means you can’t see the blue zone maybe

  4. Listen man I'm sick of hearing people talk about face camping like it's a problem the game is survivor sided survivors rush gens finish em in 5 minutes but get mad at s killer for face camping double standard is stupid

  5. Seems like every patch they just roll out a series of nerfs to killers. With VHS in Beta (lol) they'd better be careful they don't frustrate the player base too much.

    I just BOUGHT the Artist and then found out she was nerfed before I could play her!

    "Read the patch notes first dummy."

    SHUT UP I WAS GONNA I THOUGHT I HAD MORE THAN 2 MINUTES OKAY?!

  6. The snuffing thing is a reference to the patch where they widened the radius to snuff a Boon Totem (same one with the little "Enjoy it while it lasts, Killer mains!" quip from BHVR), basically the changes to making Boon Totem snuffing no longer in effect and basically back to how it was prior.

    Basically now we get to finnick around trying to find the perfect snuffing spot again… yaaaay.

  7. Sounds like the standard killer post PTB treatment to me. Rarely do good feeling killers leave without a pretty hefty nerf. Only sucky killers that are weak do and they tend to get a buff and nerf much later on IE Trickster.

    Devs hate killer mains just admit it fellas, balanced so survivors get 2 escapes is illogical, and that’s balanced to help new survivors not even considering the stale meta.

  8. The Artist nerf is a healthy one. She's got a lot of power with her cross-map detection, anti-loop power, and 115% speed. The "loop trap" playstyle of just forcing survivors to run into idle crows is boring and she doesn't need it.

  9. The Artist is still decent but I feel like it completely removed some smart Dire Crow placement on strong tiles that punished not paying attention to movement, yes it was strong on short/weak loops but just running to a different loop was a huge counter to setting up at a short/weak loop, also they introduced Overcome which 100% supports the "hold W" playstyle the original Artist enforced at short loops.
    This might just be me, but it kind of ruined this killer for me, it feels so unsatisfying to play as and against now.

  10. The boon totem location restriction was a week or 2 ago when DBD disabled object collision when snuffing boon totems. It was because killers couldnt snuff some boons due to their space being too tight. They said it was temporary until they fixed the totem spawn locations to fit killers.

    Reply
  11. I feel the point of the artist’s change was to limit the survivor to stop the “hold w” play style from running from tile to tile. This now allows more of a gamble during chases on both sides trying to guess who’s gonna do what.

    Reply
  12. Looking through all of the killer's addons and perks, I realize that there are so many easy changes that can be made to increase viability and diversity of Killer choices. Like literally just changing around numbers, it really isn't hard.

    Reply
  13. It isn't BHVR if they don't nerf killers that don't deserve it and leave survivors untouched. Pinhead needed it, but The Artist?? Never seen a game cater to the crybabies called survivors so much lol.
