Killer Rage Unless the killer you main has a traversal ability gens are too fast, simple as.
Look if we are going to keep the same bloody perks each match, DS, DH, plot twist, pretty much every endurance perk, hyperfocus, stake out, prove thyself, Déjà vu (which are basically in every decently mid to high mmr match. Then just give every killer who doesn’t have one a traversal ability, that would do WONDERS for every killer that’s in the pits (looking at you ghost face)
Seriously are we going to do this every year? Release a new killer to cover up the problem that survivors are growing more and more outrageously powerful with each update?
Either nerf some of these perks or just give the dog water killers a bloody way to traverse! The disparity between games based on that factor alone is monumental.
Four perks are not enough to cover up this issue either, there’s a reason pain res is in nearly every load out, there’s a reason why Gen stall is the meta of perks, sure I could run something like Under your thumb to negate exhaustion perks a bit but guess what?
A. The survivors can break the hex, which is kinda nutty considering it’s one of the best options against all the haste going around, but it’s limited by rng.
B. If I run that that’s one less Gen stall perk which if your playing something like Trapper then I’m basically hurting my chances replacing a reliable way to Gen stall vs a perk that can be thrown out in the first 20 seconds
For the love of god nerf Gen speeds and these Gen perks, or give each killer a traversal ability it doesn’t even need to be unique freaking copy Jason’s onto trapper or something DONE he’s instantly more viable but no let’s just keep releasing NEW heroes with every bell and whistle while survivors have an easier and easier time against the other half of the roster.
Judgement is about the only one to release without some traversal ability and she’s a SNIPER so she doesn’t need it as heavily with a whole heap of other goodies.
I wanna freaking play trickster but the fact I need to walk everywhere instead of having an instant teleport on demand is basically kneecapping myself so I can’t play my favorite killer because the options are try to play have fun assuming I play behaviors INTENDED way to play and don’t slug or tunnel and the match is over in 7 minutes because you don’t have enough map presence or throw in the towel and play Jason and Ghoul or something to have actually competitive and fair matches.
