It turns off but the condition to trigger it is to hook any survivor for the first time
r they gonna add some voice lines for survivors?
Like anyone on hook the first time
Yes
You can’t reactivate it right?
any perk nerfs/buffs?
No
also is hyperfocus stacks effected by vecna's time thing?
i think those 2 gen teamworks r kinda op cuz fym u can get yellow bar while repairing with other survivor
with dejavu and prove thyself
Will original survivors get hellfire shirts?
they werent in hellfire club in show why they should be in game
That’s like saying they weren’t in a fnaf game and/or movie so why should they have them
Or the iron maiden one
what does vecna's timer thing do again?
Does Creel’s Audio feel extremely loud to anyone else? I swear his chase music is like louder than most and I can barely hear things when I’m using his traversal power
yeah maybe u right
Like maybe I’m imagining it but it really does feel louder than it should be
If you mean the bar that fills up around survivors on the hud, it goes up whenever you land a hit with vine attack and when it’s full and they’re at death hook if you land another vine attack it suspends then in the air and you get to do a mini-mori
Does it only fill up outside of worldbreak?
Do full circuit and soft spoken stack? Only one of the perks show up when I work on gen with someone and am assuming the other just isn’t showing for some reason?
I’m not 100% sure but I think it fills up during worldbreak too, I don’t see why it wouldn’t but don’t quote me on that
No it doesn’t actually that’s odd
Hitting someone during worldbreak just does damage
someone told me it also removes all your tokens or something?
It doesn’t apply a stack
Nothing removes tokens
There’s an addon that removes stacks in a very specific condition
Yea that’s weird I don’t see why it wouldn’t go up during worldbreak, it’s not like you can even do the mini-mori until they’re death hook anyways
Yes you can't reactivate it. Face the Darkness works by deactivating whenthe survivor you hit is downed, removing the hex totem. Hex totem spawns again when you injure someone else. Repeats until the hex is cleannsed while active.
Hivemind doesnt spawn a hex totem until you make your very first hook of the game, and stays there. It can't uncleanse itself.
So what would yall say are his best addons
the dc button
quick reminder that there is no dc penalty in the ptb
But no I think the spider is one of his best
join kyf7 if intrested
Shattered wrist rocket is pretty good in my experience too
Wanted to see if I can check his voiceline. I FUCKING HATE AI SLOP with a fiery fucking passion. Fuck gemini
He does have a vault speed one and I did the math and with the right setup and perks he can have 140% vault speed.
does vecna do all ts in the show? never watched it
LMAOOO
Pissed me off SO bad omfg
Not really but he probably could
Sidenote, if you swear in your search, results will not have ai

God it's disgusting how companies force that shit
he just wants to help xD
ARE YOU FUCKING TELLING ME THAT YOU CANT DISABLE IT????
let me ask chatgpt how to feel about this
he has control over the vines so using them as an attack like this makes sense, and he also does have the clocks show up as a precursor to his thing
OH MY GOD oh my god oh my god no more google, bye bye google, I hate google
I haven’t looked but i just put a swear in my search and it doesn’t show up
put -ai at the end.
I'll check, istfg if I can't
What a load of shit it's not a setting
Instead of searching how to cook an egg search how to cook a fucking egg and ai doesn’t show up
It does work
Guys is this the exact line's words?
That's hilarious
I could be wrong but this sounds closer to the line for eddie
AI can be disgustingly fucking inappropriate, generate kink shit and kids inappropriately and everything, but it can't handle a word
The line for eddie is “you were never the hero eddie” iirc
white vans aren't gonna say "free candy" anymore. it's now "free RAM"
Oh I like, I know it's close I just heard it, I just wanna quote it accurately 😭 but that line is also so cool
How come there isnt a BP incentive right now but killer queues are still extremely long?
bhvr lazy asf thats all
probably still fairly full just not enough to give survivors an incentive
or they’re lazy that too lol. I always assumed it was an automated thing tho so idk
Uhh bhvr's fault?
If one side has more players than the other by a certain amount give x% extra blood points or something but idk maybe they do have someone watching it and manually setting it
seems like a lot of work for something that could be very easily automated tho
surely
I think it'd just be players, might be wrong ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I am obsessed with Nancy's new look bruhhh
I can't switch to someone else lmao
Theyre not that long at all
I haven't played as Eddie yet, or Jonathan
Is the 4 nemmys zombie in base mode ?
have any massive dbd youtubers switched to maining stranger things vecna or nah
No. 2v8 only
That'd be an insane Nem buff if they put that in regular
Exactly lmao. I see so many people upset that its 2v8 only as if 4 zombies wouldnt be absolutely insane in 1v4
You get the 4 of them with zombie speed addons and the survs just can't ever do anything
Verticality keeps fucking me over with creel like it keeps locking onto stairs in front of me instead of going thru them
So nemmy is stayin a garbage killer yay
Love a buff in a event that comes every 10 months
but then when I want it to go on stairs it goes through 🙄
Sunset something bvhr and you’ll be as stupid as bungie
Unironically, that's the only other buff Nemesis should receive for non-2v8
If anything Nemmy just needs a slight speed boost for Zombies. He does not need 4 zombies in 1v4 lmao
Idk, I feel like 4 could be too much. Maybe 1 more zombie for 1v4, but 2 more just seems like it'd be way too oppressive
Plus the number of zombies isnt the problem. Its their AI
They definitely need to make his audio when traveling with his power a lot quieter on the killers end
I can barely hear generators overtop the sound it makes when you move with it
2v8 is dbds worst fucking event idk why tf they keep buffing it
It's chaos, and chaos is fun
There’s something wit chaos in its name and it’s much better
Fucking chaos shuffle
Or we can enjoy both
One persons opinion that the event sucks does not invalidate everyone elses that its great
Vecna seems nice, just a buff to the undergate attack might make him better
How does vecna put people into the air and what does that even do?
Is Nemmy not in a good place rn? I don't have any issues with him
Why are you acting like Nemmy is an F tier killer lmao he's like B tier
Vecna in midwich and i cant see shit,is that intentional?
Nemi is the king of tunneling 
Downs you if they don't kill you in time, or lets them kill you
If someone has all 4 tokens, on death hook, and during worldbreaker, instead of downing them, his ability will put them in the air and he can mori them
So like sadako mori?
Yes
Precisely
Oh can they be saved or nah they’re screwed?
Nope, it's game over if that happens
For that to occur, a survivor must have 4 worldbreaker token and must be on death hook and also must be hit by an M2 ( Undergate attack or simply by the vein attack ) they have around 5 or 7 seconds where they cant do anything, the killer can mori you in this stage
Usually they are screwed. But if 10 seconds pass then they will be downed. But they are still on deathhook soooo
It's also a much faster mori than the normal
That’s sounds so fucking coool? Is he busted rn like rly unfair or nah he’s fair atm?
He is fair if you have braincells, he will be broken if you dont learn to dodge his attacks.
Decently balanced. Around a high B or low A tier
Like in a crawling state?
This might be a huge hot take. But honestly Vecna is kinda weak. Survivors can literally just sidestep everything you do and once he releases and everyone learns him. That will just be every game. Maybe i just suck at him idk
I can’t wait to get him tbh
Yes
sorry, but does someone have the access code for the PTB? It says I need one and I can't find it in chat
What are his add ons like?
It's all reading the Surv movements. If you can predict their movement, you'll get good results. If you can't, then you're screwed
Imo the point of his ability is to simply force survivors into giving you an m1 or get hit by the m2, and since it has such a SMALL COOLDOWN it can be chained almost instantly, his IRI addon gives him 2 vein attack but smaller in size so you can insta down someoen if you are good with it
Idk why ima feel bad killing Dustin mains tbh
Yay my zombies in normal have a 35 speed can’t wait for them still be useless and miss
Pyramid head gaming
Exactly
Amazing addons, he is kind of one of the more better addon killer
Cope harder
Do you think they will add a bigger cool down for it or nah?
They all seem kinda mid tbh
I wish chuckys add ons where better they all are so boring
I'm convinced Love and Honor is just rage baiting at this point
Making zombies faster isn’t gonna do sht
You're right. Give Nemesis 12 zombies.
Bro doesn't understand that the zombies aren't the primary power
THIS. Nemesis is not a garbage killer because his zombies are mid
Nemesis is a shit killer (not strength wise). I hate the bastard
icl ST Vecna's abilities are kinda weird
he should've had his extendable arm thing he impaled that one guy's head with as an ability as a weaker ranged hit, something like the tendrils in Krasue's head form. Hits with that would inflict Vecna's curse, same as the vines he has in-game do.
Also maybe hits on survs could create gates or smth? Not sure how to give him a decent teleport that isn't just Demo's again
If they do it, he will fall into C tier imo.
@icy summit His addons are of a unqiue blend, when paired with the right perks are extremely oppresive for example
His brown addon with his purple addon
Blocks vaults upon coming out of upside down and also reduces cooldown for each pallet broken
this essentially forces survivors to feed you pallets which can be really bad for survivors during later stages of the game
His power is so cool and so unique and very like, pave way-y for future unique powers yknow
Hopefully this paves the way to a pig nerf
Do you think they will or it’s supposed to be like that
Why the pig catching a stray?!?

His upside down ability is so slow in exiting that i dont even know if its worth using half the time
It is suppose to be like that, if his m2 has a big cooldown it will be hard to not only down because its a very easy ability to dodge so constant spmming of it might be intended
@icy summit After playing about 10-15 matches of him, i can for sure tell you that is one of his more stronger abilities, his map traversal is amazing because of it and you can force survivors into bad positions using it correctly
I rly wish I could play the ptb but I cant
arent the vines suposed to be that
Get a load of this guy ^^
Bro is full of hate and rage? Who shit in your soup?
Thats what play while you wait is for. The queue times are long because everyone is playing killer
True but killers did need a buff imo in 2v8 almost everyone complained about the gen speeds in 2v8
Chuky might be fun and easy downs tbh
idk, it kinda feels like a different thing?
Like, he's just opening gates to the upside down and remotely controlling the vines to attack survs. It's closer to the Lover's Lake scene in S4 where Steve gets dragged into the Upside Down than anything Vecna himself does
Maybe it’s bc a surviver sided and you added 8 of them
Imo, chucky wont be good in 2v8 considering his ability cant be used for crowd control, it might be a little bad
I hate his dash maybe I’m just using it wrong?
I also find it very hard to use tbh
I am personal believer that it should be 10 gens rather than 8, since 4= 5 and 8 should be = 10
It’s so restrictive
I’m annoyed that the shape has a better dash attack then Chucky
His turn speed was increased in 2v8 so theres that
Myers will be a rare sight from now on my friend
which ig still kinda works if you look at Vecna/Henry's lore from a wider perspective considering his connection to the Mind Flayer and the rest of the Upside Down's hivemind by proxy, but even then, at that point it's Vecna ft. the Upside Down as a killer, not just Vecna himself
Do people tend to stop playing killers once they are unable to be bought?
I have never watched stranger things, I didnt even know vecna existed until the teaser update came out
Really I’m seeing a lot of matches against him when me and my friend played? Ik they are takin him and ik that Halloween game is going to die in 6 months give or take
personally I'm just gonna be playing Myers even more
People who main him might play him daily, people who own him might still play it rarely
Buff demo dog he deserves it
Truth
I’m still trying to figure out who to main
There should be a rework to demo imo
real
I highly recommend maining vecna, he is going to be really fun
I like his dash but his tps suck
Oh omg you can put the chapter name thing in the search for perks, put in stranger things youll see
Demo feels decent to play icl
in my experience at least Demo is pretty fun
His tp should have been similar to vecna's
I enjoy a good chase that’s why I use legion typical I would use Chucky cause he’s my fav horror movie but his dash makes me tweak
Would it just take a health state or?
His dash needs to be used properly to actually hit, for example people usually activate while facing a wall or something
Most maps I play on with Chucky are always so open so I don’t get a lot of value sometimes
It shouldnt take a health state but simply be a tp, gives agency to the killer
Vecnas thing is jut upside down movement and add idk what is called
eh idk, I feel like his TPs work well if you're just careful with them?
Then again I might just be biased bc I had a weird string of 4ks a while back, even on killers I'd never played before then, so that might've just been bad matchmaking
Bro can i just not use Vecnas perks on other killers?
In indoor maps the underworld attack is pretty nice
His perks are really good so idk why you wont use it
what perks are you guys running on vecna?
like... Demo's tps are pretty good if you just position them right. The main issue is actually going to the right one
No i mean like i LITERALLY cant use them
For me I just place them near exit gates to get a pop up but other than that it’s wtv I say the tp should be already placed for you like spring trap etc. they can stop the tp by sealing the portal for a bit
I really need them to buff creel’s vine attack radius before it comes to live this shit is ass
How are yall feeling about vecna perks? Are they good or bad
try typing stranger
wait thats weird asf
it’s so goddamn small and hard to hit outside of anim locks.
He would be "The First" so I assume "First"
Type Vecna
also his undergate attack is fairly useless in most cases outside of indoor maps because you get stuck in place at the last second or two of its expansion so survivors have time to get out of the way
Oh wow that's kind of crazy
bhvr said no vecna perks for you ig 😭😭
Try "The" ??
is he not prestiged?
It’s a known bug for some reason his perks don’t show up at all on other killers for some players
You have to use it to corner them into bad positions, and then try to get the m1 or the m2
It sucks ass
Must be a bug,
that pulls up 10 pages of perks 💀
Cant have everything on a killer can ya? I can hit it most of the time unless, they have SB
No but it’s not fair to have nothing either lmfao
BHVR needs to fix it to be "First" or "Henry" cause thats annoying
His m2 is insanely strong? what are you talking about brother
It’s so fucking tiny and so easily dodgeable
m2 is lowk op as
I mean...why would you search for a killer using the. Lots of killers start with the lmao
and can’t even hurt survivors until you’re in the world breaker state
with the m2 if you can predict surv movements its really good
so how does vecna play I highkey didn’t watch any of the trailer or anything?
Which takes what 2 hits? Are you really telling me you cant hit 2 of those shots?
You’re acting like it’s easy to hit
I know, was curious if it would prompt the perks
that tiny ass radius makes it so hard
ive been playing him 10 games in total, 3k and 4ks all around
tbh it really is
Hehe they are expecting Vecna
It really isn’t
EVIL EVIL
thats evil
Play him more, you will get how it works soon
I’ve been playing him all fucking day
ive only played like 4 games of vecna and hit like 65% of them
Then either keep practicing or just get better at him idk what to tell you?
Cooldown for his vine attack incoming
Or they can buff him slightly so he’s not garbage
he doesnt need a buff lowk
yea he does
His undergate attack is ass but his vein attack is strong as hell
Nothing major but he needs a few minor buffs
It uncleanses itself when you hit your three gen and explodes them
But yes it won’t reactivate itself
Oh I see what youre saying
Agreed his underworld attack needs to have a faster speed, but everything else is now worth buffing, he is already pretty oppresive with the right addon and perks
Undergate would be the upside down travelling one right? Fair it isn't
the fact he’s already 4.4 and then gets slowed when using his power and it’s a small ass radius of a hit which makes it even harder to hit, PLUS he has to be in world breaker mode for it to even matter like????
If it were more powerful it'd be unavoidable without perks
He is 4.4 because he can hit those attacks faster than a damn huntress throwing hatchets!
It's pyramid head if it weren't reactable, just predictable
LMFAO sure
His chess piece can’t even two shot it’s sad
how can i get ptb
I have his terror radius stuck in my head
Dont think i am a survivor main or something, pure killer main 70/30. You need to do a little thinking if you cant hit such easy shots, it takes a little prediction friend
how did yall get it
You don’t even gotta predict most times. Just hold w and avoid dropping pallets and vaulting windows until absolutely necessary.
Go to steam- properties - beta
he also has a super fast mobility tool on top of that
They’re not easy shots
console
then you can't
With a hefty cooldown and the attack that’s tied to it is garbage
If you do that then it's 100% killer skill issue for not getting you lol
That’s literally his counterplay lmfao
You have your experience with the killer, but that does not mean you can invalidate other peoples experiences. 
Just beeline away = get hit
You gotta still dodge and stuff but I guess holding w doesn't contradict that
Which is super easy to do tho
and its pretty obvious when he is aiming too
It's like nurse counterplay
it doesn’t take but like 2% brainpower to figure out where he’s likely gonna put it and even then there’s still a little time that you can react between him releasing it if you have good enough reflexes
His perks are pretty nice, first killer in ages with perks that are all good
Yes which also isn’t really that hard. Just hold w and guess what the most likely place she’d blink is, and switch things up instead of doin the same thing everytime.
That's the point though 🥀
So you agree his counterplay is easy?
The same thing can be flipped though it's just constantly trying to predict the other
Yeah and his gameplay is easy ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Except survivors don’t get slowed down the same way he does when bringing up his power
And its your job to force survivors into areas where you can get a guranteed hit, or force them to give you an m1
Yea but you can still make plenty of distance to the point that one hit doesn’t even matter, you’ve already wasted enough of his time
They gotta fix Eleven and especially Robin's voices omg
It also sucks his attacks don’t have a lingering effect like dracs hellfire even though they stay visible for a little bit
Hopefully just a ptb issue
That would be torture to face loll
Wouldn’t be much different than drac hellfire
His attacks can be aimed above you, which means if there a guy on the above he can be hit from below 
his vertical aiming is super wonky tho
Just takes a bit to get used to it.
Verticality also just screws you over sometimes
Cunt actually hit me on hook in the ptb lmaoo
did you do anything to deserve it?
No I just played pretty shitty cause the match was boring
Some killers do it just as a way of being like “yea I got you” so idk
Vecnussy thinks he did something in the ptb wild
This killer has extreme chase potential with his iri addon he can down you in essentially 5 seconds
which one the chess piece or the soteria chip?
If it’s the chess piece then yea it’s possible but you have to be very fucking good since it reduces the already small radius of his vines lmfao
Why does he have an addon called that
Which one
Oh wait in the lab he played chess?
In the lab and at his home too I think
Placing 2 vine attacks which are pretty fast, on a window or on a pallet dont seem like hard work to me, idk why you find it so hard 
that’s the issue
only at windows or pallets. Value outside of that with the add on would be practically nonexistent
survivors have already started avoiding windows and pallets and the amount of time it takes to gain the distance required to force them into it is so much wasted time
PTB bming is wild like ok play against my bot if it pains you to play with real players so much
I wouldn’t take it too personally
how hard is it to hit 2 or 3 shots, there is so much you can do it hit them consistently, like have you never played Executioner?
I really don't care that much I just talk a lot lmfao
I’ve played executioner and I have very similar issues with him lmfao but even then I do better with him than I do with Creel. What can you do to hit them consistently because only times I get it is by luck or forcing them into vaults/pallet throws but that takes too much time to do
and you can’t waste any time as killer because gen speeds are fucking absurd, and they just got more gen speed perks too lmfao
As an artist main, I know pretty much what a survivor might do or he might bluff, reverse mind games usually and i hit them consistently or i force them into giving me 1 by zoning
that tells me nothing
Do rekindled Pentimento totems that get cleansed proc Secret Project?
I don’t Jace your experience as an artist main, so that means nothing to me and telling me that doesn’t help me understand. Just saying “reverse mindgames” tells me nothing as well
I just realised Millie looks exactly like my childhood best friend erm
Yes funnily enough it does
Just predict where they go, or look if they are looking behind you if they looking behind you that means they are prepring to side step if they arent looking behind them just hit the beeline shot
That's good to know. I don't think this perk will actually be used that much in a Hex build for its gen-blocking feature considering it blocks any **random **unblocked generator.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jhcD-fAJkk @void pasture watch this guy hit almost every shot through walls no aura reading too
If you want to support me use Code "Hens" when buying Auric Cells in Dead by Daylight #dbdcreator

As long as it remains RNG-based as to which gen the perk will possibly block, it will be very hit or miss.
Eleven's bloody eyes are so cool
Yeah Hens seemed crazy with it but I only saw indoor map gameplay
I really feel like Vecna should remain 110% when killer players learn how to effectively use the vine attack. On indoor multi-story maps like RPD, he's gonna be a menace.
Which is harder to hit since he has no idea where they are going
Yeah he NEEDS to stay 110% if he is 4.6 he will be very strong
And considering he can spam the vine attack w/ little cooldown right now gives me more justification that he needs to stay 110%.
If a slightly longer cooldown (1-2s) is introduced, I can see him becoming 115% perhaps.
He is very strong in the right hands, can down seemingly in seconds. He is perfect maybe his underworld attack needs a buff other than that fun and simple, A hit by BHVR
“This guy” and it’s one of the best players lmfao
like yea of course he can do that he’s got thousands of hours and is basically psychic (exaggerating but you get the point)
Undergate (emerging from Upside Down) basekit feels fine for the most part. Maybe he needs to be slowed for a tiny bit less when emerging, but reduce the radius of the attack by maybe 15-20%.
I dont get what you want me to say? Hens is good, and you can be too if you play him and try to get better rather than complain here 24/7?
Imo, they did a good thing making its hit give 2 worldbreaker tokens, it really gives that risk/reward feeling
I just meant you can’t be like “look at this guy playing masterfully” and it’s someone who’s an expert at the game lmfao like of course he’s gonna be playing optimally
I don't know if it's intended that Undergate inflicts survivors with two tokens simply according to the wording of the power description.
It doesn't mention they get two tokens of Worldbreaker, but survivors do right now.
I think its intended, wasnt it written in patch notes?
You cant be a master at a killer by just playing 3 matches and saying, " He is trash too easy counterplay "
Just play him and enjoy him if u like him or just go play whatever it is you play
That was never my claim nor point
Oh yes, it does mention that Undergate inflicts two tokens, but in game it doesn't for whatever reason lol.
BHVR is infamous for making their ability page a little vague
Read above my friend 
Undergate should definitely stay at 2 tokens considering how long survivors have to effectively react to the emergence.
SB counters is almost everytime and lockers
If emerging time is ever reduced, BHVR will eventually need to reduce token affliction to 1
Imo, they shouldnt since people might not even try to go for the hit if they do that, might as well just spam vines 2 times rather than that
That's when SB should be nerfed to 2.5s (from 3)
His perks are going to be nerfed, I can alr see them being nerfed
there is no way we're gonna have disruption meta rn💔
I’m half glad the ptb has no dc penalty and half not glad cuz on one hand it is nice to be able to just leave when the killer is just hardcore slugging u for the 4k and you can’t do anything, but on the other it means your teammates can dc at the start over nothing and you’re screwed cuz bots suck lmfao
Which is crazy cuz his perks don’t even need nerfs at all
His perks are kinda meta
Not really? He literally just released lmao
it's our first gen regression perk in a WHILE
the only “nerf” in terms of lowering things he needs is lowering the fuckass sound he has when using his traversal it’s way too loud and you can barely hear anything over it
Secret project paired with corrupt, DMS , Grim all 3 meta perks
Turn back time can deny gens from a dsitance and also prov DMS
Hive mind tbh its balanced and nice
also his chase music could be lowered a bit on the killer side, it feels louder than other killers to me
like normally I can hear injured survivors very well during chase but with him it’s so hard because his music is so overpowering it drowns all surrounding noise out 😭
it's 20 meters so you have more than enough time to react, unless the killer is undetectable
You also need line of sight on the gen as well
eleven shoulda had better perks ngl
Yea I was about to say this. If it’s an indoor map you’re cooked lol
Just because perks are good doesnt mean they should be nerfed
None of his perks need nerfing
Knowing behavior tho they probably will if survivors complain enough
Oh 100% they are gonna gut Vecna completely
Clarification, I never said they should be nerfed i made a prediction
sucks there’s a bug for me and a lot of others cuz we can’t even use his perks on other killers 😭
yeah same here...
I’ve heard it affects some and it doesn’t affect others and nobody seems to know why it affects the ones it does
he just needs a lil more cooldown on his vine
I feel like Vecna needs to have his speed while holding m2 increased just so you can actually hold it a bit longer before they quickly get out of range
not too much tho since he needs stacks aswell
How to switch between the ptb server and live?
use the same method as you used to get to ptb
vecna kinda snatched
Alr
its probably already been said over and over but vecna keeps getting stuck in the upside down~ lore accurate but still sucky
oes anyone else have to redownload the game when switching back to live?
yes
damn
in best way to explain it, the ptb and the public live both have different resourses, when downloading one your rewriting over the other, kinda like a save file, but your cosmetics in the normal mode and stuff stay
yea i realized that lastt ptb just wanted to check if it was the sme for everyone else
thats fair but yep yep its the same for everyone
We talking vecna or nah?
Yeah
His perks are pretty cool to be honest, also while typing this I realized that I've looked through every single killer perks in the game but krasues
Bring back old Nancy. this one sucks!
But anyway, I like the remote kick perk that's pretty fun
Wait a minute, Turn Back the Clock does trigger Oppression
Someone say it didn’t earlier
I’ve been finessed, bamboozled, shammed
Does it stack with pop? I think that would be kinda cool if it did
No pop requires it to specifically be a kick
That sucks, oh well though
But drive by Oppression still good
This perk is going to be meta imo, since it can be used to activate DMS
and if you paire this combo with secret project you get 30 seconds of undetectable
Also applies to Overcharge so with TBtC, drive by Overcharge
OVERBRINE META is now on steroids
I agree, I hope it doesn't get nerfed though
does brine need kick?
Wait you’re so right
No just damage
Oppression Overcharge and Brine all have the same requirements
Damage generators action
What are the chucky mains thought son 2v8 chucky?
She looks much better in a match than she does in the lobby
Old Nancy looked cruddy outside of her portrait render
What about Nowhere to Hide, same thing? Can you use the new perk the move the aura reveal away from the gen?
She had the crusty old dbd model
Not as bad as old Quinton and Nea but still
Someone post old Quinton
Nowhere to Hide requires kicking a gen I think so no
Ty
Oh wait I lie
old nancy was fire man why'd they have to ruin her 💔
Nowhere to Hide procc off of TBtC. DRIVEBY AURA CHECK
She legit looks much better in an actual match than she does in the lobby
That sounds fair and balanced 😭
😭 i havent checked yet wonder if they fixed eddies face mf look like oddie ngl
In all honesty he didn't need to be in 2v8 but it's cool he's there I suppose: he's really a nothing burger and If I remember correctly if they put them there at all his stats aren't crazy, really really excited for the 2v8 skin though I hope it's something good because I wanted to get him another skin but his base ones aren't my favorite other than the party one and tif, clown should have been added alongside chucky though or tricker him being alone seems really wrong and I see the two of them working the best with his power
It's been less than 24 hours of course they havent 😭
I COULD DO IT IN 2 MINS WITH CHAT GPT TRUST 😭
Yo youre chasing a survivor past a working gen? Blam, Nowhere to Hide check and free aura
no way lemme check this
His vault can break pallets lol
I’m scared to think about what killers like Nurse and Netflix Vecna could do 😵💫. I remember hearing from somewhere the Nurse prevented close range aura perks from being in the game for a long time.
Now that I think about it new Nancy looks more like how she did in the original Stranger Things chapters trailer
That's not that crazy, survivors infinitely rebuild them in the mode no?
thats true
whats tbtc
Turn back the clock, Vecna new remote pop
Pop goes the weasel triggers if you kick a generator
Vecna's thing is like pain res but manual
When performing the Damage Generator action
Pops boring as fuck, it's cool by itself but it does not interact with any power or perk at all and it's so ehh: still one of my favorite perks though
Reason Pop can’t procc off pain res is cuz you get the effect after hook not during hook
So like
Remote pop 30%?
interesting
Same goes for Call of Brine, Overcharge, dragon’s grip
They never prepared for the scenario I don’t think
Also he's definitely really cool to see, he's like the most casual killer to play imo, he'll be such a beloved character in that mode I can already see it that's my bet
No pop deals damage to 20% of current progression. The other perk deals damage equal to 10% of the total needed time to finish the generator
Same for Oppression, Nowhere to hide, Eruption
So not actual 30% cuz math
yeah
Remote drive by dragon grip is funny in chase
Like imagine you then double back to get the person who touch gen
nope, nowhere to hide doesnt proc of tbtc
another great perk description by bhvr
Can't have anything fun in this damn game it seems
Why not? Perform damage generator action
i checked this, this is common thing in dbd when bhvr giver no shit about their game
Survivor perks also seem really fun too, mostly dusten I love his perks a lot
Dustin's window trap perk is funny cause its completely useless against the killer from the same chapter
You’re saying the perks’ syntax is just shit
some perk description r wrong or absolutely lie, some localizations have old descriptions
I played for several hours and not one person used Bada Bada Boom 😔. Most everyone I got was running sweaty builds like Hyperfocus Stakeout and the like
I’m checking via wiki and I can even check through nightlight. Unless English is failing me, the context is there
Localization is different tbf
Peak game, nearing 10th anniversary by the way 💀
Also this is the ptb, they can always change the wording for launch if theyre alerted to it
sorry i dont understand tf is perk syntax my english to bad
Huh? Ive seen nothing but people playing around with the new perks. Also a lot of scene partner Robins
He means that “generator damage action” is phrased wrong
in nowhere to hide yes, u need to kick gen
The trap perk does absolutely nothing against Vecna so people might be adverse to running it after a couple games?
You’re saying the descriptions are incorrect basically. The game description for perks
Use the actual wiki not the wikia. The wikia is not well maintained and easy to vandalize
Uhh no, you need to perform a damage generator action
yep, i checked this in game, i run a match with tbtc and nowhere to hide and they r work nowise
this is what wiki and game says, not what really is
I don’t know man, I’ve already had a full lobby DC on me, I might just be cursed 😑
as i said this is dbd
People often disconnect in ptbs if youre not playing the new killer because theres no dc penalty durring a ptb
So what? We can’t even trust perk descriptions and trust your word for it?
Or are just trigger happy on disconnecting
CatMan can you verify this?
Verify what
if u dont believe me just check it
That might be it, I was playing Pinhead that game
I just turned off my computer
All damage gen based perks and Turn Back the Clock
Happens whenever I try to play a game of Hag to test things.
People dont seem to be dcing against my stealth billy though
u can even on live server try use pain resonance and nowhere to hide and they will have no synergy yk
even tho pain resonance is damage not kicking, and nowhere to hide "needs" just damage action
Pain resonance is different. You’re not the source of the gen regression, the scourge hook is
You never performed a Damage Generator action, you just hooked someone
vecna is fairly balanced after playing him all day
I love Hag so much, I have a whole folder of clips where I’m just screaming and getting jump scared by Hag traps 🤣
anyway if u dont believe me u can check on your own
on the stronger side but u can dodge his shit and just shift w to counter, he is a slugging demon tho
exactly, like it's finally a killer that takes skill to play
Turn Back the Clock is the newest means to indirectly “kick” a gen
springtrap takes skill
ghoul not really, but there are ghouls that do impressive shit
I always have to run Shackles unfortunately cause its both outright better and helps prevent people from just baiting the traps
Trapper.
Shackles is still really funnt
Doesnt even have an animation for her poping up she just appears out of nowhere
you can just run endo cpu and that's all the gameplay, sure you can do orbitals but it doesn't force any skilled gameplay, although i didn't try out any of vecna's add ons
springtrap is all skill bruh, running endo cpu and a pallet breaking build is not the play
On Otz’s site it says that makes you actionable fast?
you're late almost 10 years buddy
His "orbitals" are a big part of his skill though. Completely ignoring loops like jungle gyms and getting an edge of survivors with well placed foxy hook aoes that they arent tall enough to reach
Fine. Uhhhh anyone except Ghoul
I have no idea what that means.
Shackles is the addon which removes all indications of a trap going off to survivors. No fake Hag and no mapwide splash.
Allows you to antiloop and mindgame survivors a lot easier and helps prevent survivors from baiting out her traps to "disarm" them
when does worldbreaker activate? how many tokens do you need to earn?
Lol
Rip
Go to Otz’s site though, he talks about that on Shackles
“the removal of the teleport animation indirectly makes you able to hit or move even sooner than normal”
idk how to describe it but playing against vecna feels like an event
like it feels like a fortnite event I don't know why
Hadnt thought about it but yeah there is slightly less delay
There is a clock on your screen and big explosions every 2 minutes
Hit a guy 2 times with vein or with 1 underworld attack
to activate worldbreaker, you need to inflict 2 tokens on a single survivor, or hit a survivor with maximum tokens once.
do you guys think vecna is op, strong, balanced, or weak?
i think he's strong you just need to know how to hit his vines and i am terrible at doing so
i checked oppresion and call of brine, those also doesnt proc of tbtc
i still think it needs a small cooldown
Hes incredibly interactive while still having chase, feels pretty unique, and has incredible animations and general presentation
i think visually hes the best killer in the game
bro his ranged attack is so annoying to dodge + pretty much god pallets are unuseable
it does but when ur in a indoor map it can be annoying to dodge + the cooldown is pretty much 0 seconds
Yeah. Its a hell of an antiloop
And when youre indoors you dont have the room to maneuver
idk how i feel about vecna i feel some people will play him but i think hes gonna recieve hella nerfs due to its almost impossible to loop and escape him
he aint that good
bro he’s not impossible to loop
no i agree he isnt that good but when ur in a indoor map its almost impossible
I havent played survivor against vecna, when he is aiming m2 can you see the AOE? like while he is aiming?
no
No
"almost"
A strong Vecna is almost impossible to loop ( ONLY IF HE KNOWS HOW TO AIM )
shift w and u have to predict where he will do his ability, try faking window vaults and going through pallets
idk shift+w the first just another artist-like killer
Issue with him is primarily indoor maps
with indoor maps if you read outdoor maps its completely different but indoor maps its so difficult to manover + god pallets are unuseable
I wonder what its like against him in Hawkins come to think of it
i run zenshin tactics and im all ears on him so i can preaim my power on vaults and pallets and if they even drop a pallet or fast vault i can see their aura and just use my vine attack
i hope he doesn’t receive nerfs he really doesn’t need any imo
his upside down attack is difficult to get hits against good survivors
it’s very fuckingg loud
The fact he can aim from below and aim through walls is kinda really nice, I kept hitting gens on the second floor no problem
once survivors learn how to counter him he wont be that good
so you can only reduce the duration of worldbreak by 75%?
he’s fun ash to play against imo
like you cant do the full clock?
Oh yeah btw
u can also reduce the clock timer like cmon bruh
Are the black tenticle things om Vecna meant to be a reference to Nightbreed?
i am PRAYING they change his terror radius
no
i didnt try yet as survivor im bad at survivor so i would struggle either way
cinematically they nailed this killer
I mean outside the context of the show itself
the whole thing including chase needs to be replaced it doesn't feel like vecna at all
i don’t play a lot of survivor but i beat him with my team most games
one of the only thing vecna is strong at is slugging
Nightbreed WAS an 80s movie
he’s definitely a better zoner than springtrap tho 😭
yeah it doesnt really feel like stranger things it just feels like a random killer
they did so good with demo idk how they fucked this one up so badly
if they just tune him a litle bit hes very fun to play against
by clive barker
it genuinely feels more generic than the default terror radiuses
i dont think its a reference
i was gonna say demo's tr is great. idk what went wrong with vecna
and even playing him u dont get stranger things vibes cuz he has weird particles on him and stuff and honestly i dont think he should be floating but im glad we got him either way
im honestly surprised more people seem upset with nancys new face than vecna's mid TR
yo can we have upside down theme in terror radius
90% sure the only reason he floats is because he doesn't use Telekenisis in the power
apparently shes glitched in the lobby and looks normal ingame
If the rumor that theyre changing Steve's voice to be the original actor is true then we will be in for a doozy
i js think he would be cooler if he wasnt floating he looks goofy when he crosses his legs and stuff lmao
her lobby face animations just arent very good but when shes doing a gen or anything really that neutralizes her facial expression she looks like natalia
he does look way different in-game than in the show
yeah he kinda looks like a mix between s4 and 5
the head looks fine its the body that looks kind of strange. i think in the show his body is very small but that would probably look crazy in game
Ive seen people say that he is like season 4 but he has become completely melded with the vines
I dont reallt have context. I just know he looks like a thumb in season 4
yeah he looks like the grinch in s4
they kind of avoid full body shots with vecna in s4 to make him look bigger/scarier than he would if he was just kind of standing around like he is in dbd
yes exactly the body looks like its from s4 and the head looks like its from s5 its weird
hes almost fully prosthetic so you get the same kind of ridiculousness looking at behind the scenes pictures of him just sitting in his chair lmao
He looks like a peen
is there any more info about whats going to release with the chapter cuz my friend sent me a picture of an og survivor in an hellfire shirt and idk where to find it
Maybe its from a datamine?
and someone in a twitch stream said mr whatsit skin is going to come but idk
i think it was leaked that all ogs are going to get hellfire shirts
i hope steve and nancy get more cosmetics. especially nancy with the s4 blue dress when they visit the asylum
might also apply to the stranger things survs
that'd be so cool bro
i think that would be cool tho. they could definitely do the skin and have the big arm like he does in the show
kind of glad this one got delayed the ptb is very smooth compared to like the shit that happened when twd was running behind schedule
fr and im hoping we eventually get the whole party as skins. like will mike and lucas for dustin and max for el. but that might be asking for too much 
Nancy in the nurse uniform is a need. Also would love to see their final battle cosmetics come to the game
i keep seeing people w the jim the beam pfps cause of how ptb saves work and it reminds me of the dark times we crawled out of
Found this in dbdleaks. Probably posted to some social platform?
I hope the dustin and eleven teamwork perks get a small buff
yes this was the picture so it was a leak
its so disappointing they never worked out a system to give legendary survivors their own cosmetics cause even just more robin skins would be awesome
fr no offense but the scoops ahoy outfit gets boring so fast
i appreciate them making sure the scoops ahoy duo is gonna be possible but i want more 😭
especially because the dbd robin model is so good
they just need to rework the legendary skin system
like and i need more eleven outfits
cuz that s3 fit is good but it aint cuttin it
Heres tbe datamine. Apparently theres going to be some kind of lighthouse map?
make it so that a survivor can have multiple legendaries of the same character and once you buy one the others recieve a discount to be the same price as purple skins, and you can mix and match outfit parts belonging to the same character
im grateful for the s3 fit but i need the yellow and black gap outfit and the roller rink dress and bangs
yes yes
they have genuinely probably lost tens of thousands of dollars in revenue by setting up the system in a way that gave rebecca chambers more cosmetics than chris redfield
nobody gaf about Rebecca give me shirtless carlos
that's 15 dollars out of my pocket IMMEDIATELY
Literally gigachad Carlos
dbd is gonna rob me dry with this chapter im hoping they dont nerf vecna to the ground
oh they're going to bring me to financial ruin if there's any more legendary skins
they should either keep him as is or look at his add ons
max, lucas, joyce, hop, karen? all insta buys
chess piece probably has crazy potential if you can like aim
His addons need changing
if they bring the whole party and a mr whatsit skin or any skin voiced by jamie i will actually go broke with a smile on my face
joyce genuinely cannot be a legendary i cant handle it
He should not be able to both break pallets and damage generators with his power via a brown addon
i fear its the best we're gonna get
i just stopped maining quentin i cant go back
omg they should also add els epilogue fit
we will live in a world where an unlicensed faceless version of quentin smith from a nightmare on elm street 2010 is slightly more customizable than the winona ryder skin
Ya know I just realized
Even if thus chapter got delayed the timing worked out in the end
Instead of it coinciding with the start if season 5 and the holiday season, it is coinciding with the finally of seaosn 5
because today is conformity gate yippee!!!!
can someone explain the whole clock part of his power? all i know is u have to hit someone twice with ur vine attack then a clock appears and u can injure them or something. but why is it red at first and how do survivors make it go down
Idk what this means
holy shit creel looks kinda crazy
when the clock comes up it lets your power start to do damage instead of just making the clock go up. there are two phases, the first 3/4 of the clock can be sped up by listening to music at a grandfather clock, the last fourth has to be waited through and it lasts like a little over a minute
so after a survivor gains 2 tokens of worldbreaker, worldbreaker mode begins. When In worldbreaker, you no longer inflict tokens, but instead deal damage. You can damage anyone, not just the survivor you hit twice.
ohh
I love how the music on the clocks is clearly legally distinct running up that hill
so they cant just totally delete your power because you'll always have it for that last miunute but also its free pressure because survivors will never let you stay in damage mode for like the 4+ minutes the timer normally lasts for
speeding up the clock takes like i think 20 seconds
Its its similar to freddy's power. If he hits you with one if his two powers you accumulate tokens, and after getting 2 or 3 you are forced into the upsidedown for a period of time. If youre in the upsidedown you can be injured and downed by Vecna's powers like with freddy, but you cant immedietly escape like Freddy's nightmare world. You can only shorten the time it lasts by using the clocks around the map.
kind of disappointing they didnt get the license or at least just make it an iron maiden track they have the rights to
also once a survivor has 4 tokens it only takes one hit on them to activate worldbreaker, and you can mori them in worldbreaker if they have 2 hooks and you down them with the vines
yes they get like stuck in place and you have to walk up to them its weird but so cool
had a vecna earlier that didnt know it was a thing and kept looking at me back and forth while i was floating in place like it was my fault lmao
Ultimately it comes down to just, grtting hit by his powers will eventually forced you into the upsidedown for a period of time where his powers become very lethal
And you can lower the time by interacting with clocks
licensing is very tricky to handle, they would need approval from Netflix to do iron maiden, and getting even a single song as popular as running up that hill or master of puppets would be ridiculously expensive and not something behavior would likely want to maintain in the long run.
yall, have you realized that vecna 2.0 can upside down through breakable walls?(as well as pallets and vaults)
I hope to god they pull a Maggie and fix Nancy's cheeks before the update releases 🙏
honestly I feel like the condition is too specific and could use some loosening
i love her crouch perk sm
bring urban evasion and open handed with it it's so good
it works w open handedddd????
Yeah
Pretty sure the dustin medkit perk works with open handed too for some reason.
Wait no ooen hand the other thing.
I don't think this chapter could have gone any better tbh
like flashbang?
Imagine the 27th rolls around and we find out the survivors aren't voiced by their actors 💀
would lowkey ruin the whole thing
nah the scream is definitely gaten and it explains why they chose dustin cause gatens played dbd on their stream before. eleven sounds like an impersonator though
Its pretty clear that Vecna has his actual actor due to his activity in twitter Im sure they got the same for the others
I'm really hoping eleven's screams are just her having 2 actors like twd survs
i didnt think vecna sounded quite right tbh
rick grimes scream incident ☹️
nah, vecna in game sounds nothing like Jamie Campbell Bower. Its likely that his legendary will be him tho cause there's leaked voice lines where the voice is unmistakably jamie's.
Either way Dustin's voice acting is genuinely amazing. You can really hear him willing himself forwards while he is in pain and pushing through. He has so much character without any dialogue in the ptb
Was this real or AI???
those were all AI
ai
It looks very similar LMAO
does anyone know if knights path placement turning is still bugged?
I haven't side by sided it yet tho I'm lazy, good to know tho ty
ai is really scary nowadays. Crazy how it's able to replicate the dbd style so easily
Didnt mention it in the patch notes
I know omfg
still not perfect but holyy
Meh its usually clear
Speaking of ai this happened earlier
Usually sure but if it's trying not to be it can be very eeeugh
Theres always some flaws which to dodge have to be scraled around with low quality stuff
It = the prompter lol
i just dont like the speed at which it improves it makes keeping up with the giveaways hard
i still cant believe ai generated content isnt required to have a watermark on it
Idk dude its pretty obvious to me when I see
^ rn it's like some AI crap you just have an off feeling about but you wouldn't be able to prove it, unless maybe you digitally forensics'd that shit lmao
the ai overview is genuinely so awful
Same but that was a while ago
like I've never seen something so unhelpful
idk i dont like not being able to tell at a glance. if im just scrolling by i probably wont think twice because i used to never have to lol
Stable Diffusion is open source
Holy fuck I want to mori irl whoever implemented it/basically forces it
my favorite is when i look something up and ai overview tells me to look it up on google
Y'know one positive is now more people don't believe everything they see lol
You're fucking joking. You're joking.
In theory you can add -ai to the end of your search to remove it but in practice im too lazy and just scroll past it instantly
Chatgpt once told me it'd answer my question at a later date (not a feature)
Inexcusable that there's no setting for it*
the thing with llms is that they are quite literally glorified autocomplete so they're just saying whatever sounds right with a little bit of randomness
-# ||Me? Tf? Lmao||
Chatgpt is a chat bot at the end of the day. It looks for responses to generator word by word based on aggrigate data and doesn't really "think".
It's hilarious because before you realise how bad it is at first you take it semi seriously because of that, but then you notice it's absolutely full of shit
Which is helpful for specific actually important uses involving organizing data in a structured envirement but recreationally its more or less a toy
they make up SO. MUCH.
^ it's a tool, lol both definitions
Theyre still quite impressive for actual specific usages involving organizing data but you have to like, set it up for that specifically
And then the AI is wrong sometimes I'm going to crash a plane into your servers
one time i fell for that thing where its like just talk to chatgpt about your feelings and it immediately told me i had like every personality disorder and i gave up
The 'personality' it has as well is unbearable
Corn
I've seen this one guy parody it it's so funny
Is it only me Or vecnas undergate attack is very ease to dodge?
i feel like using ai for data and stuff is perfectly fine like whatever it's stuff that nobody wants to do and it can do it much faster. What i don't like is executives trying to replace creatives with ai
Depends on the situation in my experience?
Like this killer is definitely A tier nowhere near S tier
Like on an indoor map its gonna be really hard
yes it's easy usually but if you position and time correctly you can make it unavoidable
Its really hard and rare to reach s tier tbf
Yeah on indoor map it's gonna be hard.
s tier is permanently reserved for blight and nurse probably
I see. From what I experienced I played against bots and they just hold W and dodge it very easily no matter where I start the undergate attack
No Spirit used to be S tier back in the day. Like, survivors instsnt disconnecting S tier and she took a long time to get nerfed.
She was up there with Nurse and Blight
I don't think vecna requires any nerf or buff tbh. Just some bugs fixes.
if you can mindgame them into double vaulting you can get a near guaranteed hit
Also Krasue wad S tier before she got nerfed
Yeah vaulting is a whole different play than it's garrantied hit but in an open area you can run away
Isn't she still very powerful?
They need to change up his addons. An addon that lets him both break pallets AND damagr generators using his power should not be brown
Oh yeah I forgot about the addons
Shes strong yeah but she isnt completely game breaking like she was in release.
if they tone down a lot of his add ons they won't need to nerf base kit I feel
Yeah totally
He is strong without any addons imo
like you said that pallet/gen breaking add on is insane
So if they don't give him any addons it will be fine 🤣
Him being annoying on indoor maps is whatever. A lot og killers are.
Also its really funny that both Vecnas excel on gideons specifically
But they r definitely going to Nerf him sadly 🤧.
Depends in the feedback
Hell they buffed Krasue last time (which is why she was broken )
Y'all know what the feed back already is
Same as krasue and ghoul ptbs
Even though he isn't really game breaking like them
Krause PTB was muddled and overshadowed by the chaos that was Behavior throwing in like 5-10 difderent antitunnel/slug ideas all into a single PTB alongside a major killer rework and a new killer
Only feedback they really got about Krasue was that her head form felt clunky, so they changed up her collision and left her infections staying when hooked for live and as a result made her absuedly overpowered.
Idk I have a bad feeling he will get nerfed and turn into almost useless. They buff new killers so people buy than nerf them down in next update.
We will have to see
What changes she got? After the nerf
I haven't played her since collecting 9000 shard is very time taking
Generally speaking they changed her collision and I think the length of her head attack so she cant hug walls and completely defy every loop in the game. Also slowed down her power vault, made her infections disapear when someone gets hooked, and increased the ammount of mushrooms that appear
I love the chase music and animations of this killer. Super cool. The mori is also decent the unique mori is way better tho. You actually feel like real vecna.
This is one of the best killers they have ever put out
Hmm so now she is A tier right? Before she was S tier
Agreed ✔️
Hes so incredibly interactive and thrilling to play against. He somehow mamaged to cover both interesting and thrilling chase with super well done interactive macro elements.
And almost balanced basekit power too?
It's very easy to dodge tbh. Just hold W
You mean his tunneling thing? You just gotta start running the moment you see him coming.
I tried the undergate attack and they dodged it every single time. Maybe a skill issue but it didn't even hit once man.
Cant loligag gotta run like bell
from what I've seen it's either really close or you get hit no matter what since he's much faster than your W and the range is too big
without addons equipped at least
My experience was opposite to this lol
Hus ranged attack is what feels close a lot.
well I've seen it used by starting to pop out while slightly ahead of them
yeah but if survivors predict it you lose a ton of distance
they always got hit by a really tight margin
any further back and he would've missed basically
I think playing against bots will show u how easy is to dodge that attack.
When I start undergate attack near them they run opposite way or just hold W and escape it
Yeah. Also her playercount dropped off a clif
Easily
i thought about turning back but it doesn't look like it's that much better than just running forward
maybe it's more effective but wouldn't you have to be forced to run back somewhere you likely have no resources in
you kind of just have to predict what hes gonna do
I think on indoor maps it will be really hard to dodge
But in outside map it's easy
it's probably harder to notice him coming in outdoors map because of grass / ground color
unless he's very loud
Yeah a lot thinks she is weak now
No its jsut shes not S tier anymore so people stopped caring.
i played her shortly after the 3rd nerf and it didn't seem that much weaker to me
good players actually had the choice to avoid her after that
the vecna remote kicking perk is so nice
Anyone uf for some games (kyf) on the ptb rn?
it sucks that they release perks that a lot of killers need nowdays on killers you have no choice but to pay for
does it trigger other gen kick perks
is there a way to avoid triggering worldbreaker when playing vecna? like so i can token everyone equally
i dont think so its just kind of a very convenient kick
i'd imagine it's like pain res where it ignores things like blast mine though
it also doesnt work through walls you have to have LoS on the gen even though it doesnt say that in the description
so map rng can make it useless
if you get lerys you'll almost never have a direct los with a gen that's really far away
Is 2v8 coming back or?
ye but you wont be able to play it in ptb till tomorrow
i dont think its exceptionally good or bad its just kind of nice to have. its mostly useful for when you catch a survivor on a gen and you want to start chasing them but you dont want to give them a free gen.
to be honest you can use that and people can't bait hits at 99% gen to finish it in front of you
same with people who do that with blast mine for smart cookies who kick the gen before hitting you
tbh i feel like its lowkey a waste of a perk slot 99% of the time pop or pain res would be better
meta perks are indeed better than niche ones but it gets old after using them 50 times in a row
i mean every perk looks bad next to pain res. and it works really good with pain res
ion really feel that way but i get what you mean
feels like it would be nice if it didn't require LOS tbh
well if it didn't require unblocked LOS you could trigger dms from across the map in EVERY map
i mean i just feel like if its only gonna give 10% its shouldnt require los and thats what lowkey kills the perk
ah yeah good point
and that would be good on every killer not just the weaker ones with low mobility
bro Steve gets a new cosmetic and Nancy only gets a hairdo and puffy cheeks? I really hope they fix her face before release 🙏
same her face rework is unnecessary they gotta revert that
A neat detail I noticed that I havent seen pointed out is that Vecna's mapwife voiceline when someine enters the upside down becomes directional if he is close enough to you.
you could probably use it in a funny way with call of brine since from afar you'd know someone is working on it after you kicked it, and if you have both that and dms ready you could just proc it from 50 miles away and they wouldn't be able to predict it
Like if hes to your left and is within a range you will hear it from the left, but farther away theres no direction fornit
well only 20 meters away
since that is its range limit
Bro i just wish vecna lowkey had better adds cuz his add ons are so dirt
they might change a few ones but his brown addon is good
having good brown add-ons is way better than having good iri ones
the only good ones imo are his brown tht gives him 2 more meters when outside of worldbreaker and the add on that basically gives hime sloppy butcher for his m2 lowkey hope they buff some of his other add ons
i like the one that makes everyone broken for 20 sec after worldbreaker paired with the one that mangles and hemorraghes after vine hit
the one that makes him block windows is good too , though he can pretty much ignore those
ye i feel like the add ons that help his other ability suck because you only really use for map traversal and rarely get hits with it
you need to predict their movement or get them at a window to hit
they just barely have enough time to get out if you pop it on top of them
against good survs tht most likely wont happen because its so easy to avoid
so yeah it's not very good against survs who know how it works
you gotta be slightly ahead and they have to keep holding W and they will barely get hit
if you're already on top of them they will barely make it out
you can also bait them to double back if they know about this
i think the ability is good in tight loops with windows like a TL
you can probably get away with using it there since it's harder to directly get out of
exception is lithe tho
yeah, it's def a more situational power
i mean maybe but like realistically you'll end up just giving them free distance
y'know i feel like the vines CD is a bit too short
if you push them to a TL and they're up against a window or having to run left or right you are more likely to hit them
you can spam it so incredibly quick
kinda but lowkey i feel like it needs to be short cuz its so easy to miss
it's short because you need to hit it a bunch of times for it to actually deal damage
if it dealt direct it'd definitely have a longer cd
that too but its most of the time is jjust guessing where the surv if finna go so i hope they wouldnt increase the cd
right but I think that makes it too strong in worldbreaker, as a suggestion it could have a longer CD in worldbreaker
like the thing is you get slowed down a lot if you miss but the range is so big you're likely going be able to get away with it if you just land the next M2
especially if you run predator and you can straight up see where the guy is going
i mean but you have to get 2 stackes before worldbreaker i feel like lowkey making his cd slower would just kill him unless you make his m2 radius bigger aswell
exactly so he would only have slower CD in worldbreaker like i suggested
can survivors see where you're aiming or not
no they cant
if you make it bigger then it would be unfair
no but they can see his power on the ground right before it hits
i means if your nerfing his cd then no
I think the power is really easy to hit when you have line of sight, you just need to have a little patience and not pop it as soon as you pull up
or wait for them to animation lock themselves
on loops without line of sight you are doing more predicting
yeah ofc
even at loops with los its still a predication a lot of the time
if you know the checkspots locations (common in shacks) you can just hit them from the opposite side of the building
cause they'll be waiting there to see you or the red light and if they stand still they defo get hit
only if they hold W like a bot or you predict their pathing
if they go wide on most their tiles its very hard to hit your m2
cuz atp they can lowkey go anywhere
if they go wide it's easier to catch up through your m1 or to push them out of the loop
so most of them will french kiss the wall
depoends on the tile and if your trynna get stacks for worldbreaker or just secure a down
you probably need to distinguish when it's more convenient to just hit them or try to get stacks
imo it just depends on how much pressure you have
he seems good in most places
the real sweats could probably play around shack very easily with m2
shack can be good but its lowkey pretty easy to get a m2 hit on shack
i could think of many scenarios in which if someone just plays shack the same way they ever did you could pull some stuff on them
i think it makes sense that it doesnt do it just as its own perk but i think it should if you already know the gen isnt regressing with like surveillance or something
his power just seems very unpredictable in loops, i think his anti loop would still be strong with a higher CD in worldbreaker
well, unpredictable as long as the vecna is good
also its kind of annoying you cant use it freely while using powers. i dont see a real balance reason for it and the alternative is cool huntress telepathic gen kick into a trickshot clips like why are we being robbed
they won't be that good for a while
the complaints of the survivor mains would be heard before they even think about this solution
I have seen way too many vecnas just fire immediately every time they pull their power up kinda like new huntresses
you're slower when you hold m2 right
hes like in that nurse pyramid head lane where hes objectively strong but he can still be fun to play against. closer to pyramid head than nurse obviously
much much slower
it's a big gamble to play around it against someone who's good against that type of ranged killers
yeah
pyramid head already kinda feels miserable against them, can't imagine vecna after people adapt
the cd might feel broken now but it will be balanced when people learn how to counter him effectively
i just feel like currently a cd nerf is unecessary you can make his counter play better i lowkey dont really have any good ways that wouldnt make it just downright impossible to use him but im sure they could do something with the clocks that helps survs against his m2
it's not a krasue situation i know that much
i think his cd is fine considering hes the first pure 110 killer we've gotten in a while and hes only dealing damage half the time
and you need to really make use of that time in which you can't get kicked out of your power
so there's pressure on how efficient you have to be with it
You never know till theyr fully in live they buffed krasue when she came live so
i mean yeah but you could definitely tell the potential krasue had with just a slight tweak
to me vecna wouldn't get to no counterplay levels with just a slight tweak
Because half the community complained about her being weak and clunky on the ptb
i feel like killer as a whole was weak and clunky on her ptb lol
Really underwhelming no killer is really that unique anymore after they continued to use the same formula for 10years
What
i mean to be fair dbd has always been a very samey type of game
i legit don’t think he needs any changes, right now if u play the ptb survivors are decently good at dodging his anti loop and it hasn’t even been a full day yet
his anti loop is a lot like springtrap where u have to be patient
She deffo wasnt weak xdd
Didn’t say she was
yeah oftentimes the threat of the vines is greater than what the vines themselves do
She was just significantly worse than she even is nowadays
you hold it and survivors don't dare to use the pallet or vault near them so you can zone them out of it and get a free hit anyway
Yh nws i mean weill see what they do with vecna
like the skill ceiling for vecna is just high as hell man like
krasue's big problem was being released in the same ptb as the dogshit antitunnel changes
he will hit survivors if he’s good, if not survivors will win easy
she would have been reviewed objectively and seen as an okay killer if they didnt test two completely different things that can and will interact in one ptb which is a terrible fucking idea
vecna is just really strong at slugging but again they will learn to adapt, i don’t think we will see nerfs behavior hasnt been that bad, after ghoul ptb they didn’t slaughter him and waited for survivors to learn to play against him first
mmm i think he's more a tight skill floor
if you hit the floor where youre decently competent there's still a good bit of ceiling but its not an insane difference between floor and ceiling compared to the average killer
im not gonna lie i havent taken off zanshin for a single vecna match lol
i haven’t ran it yet
i have been trying to make a very good build with his perks but most seem fine
i dont think zanshin is a good idea because dropping pallets is a horrible decision against vecna
vecna is very good at defending hexes, that’s another thing
its just that people are kind of dumb rn
yeah this also, survivors bluff the pallet throw more than actually throwing them
im currently using uhhh painres dms secret project and i'm all ears
but yeah he would be insane with a good hex build, hive mind is actually huge value because it lets you get a nasty ass 3gen
i’m all ears underrated, which it got a buff tho
the throw aura is nice the main thing i like it for is its a nice visual guideline for where to aim the vines
the first is better than the lich imo not close
Vaulting windows is also a bad idea against him. All you can do is hold W and cut LoS
ohhh yeah that's actually quite useful it lets you know where to aim when you hear the vault noise without having to guesstimate
lich is b tier, while the first is A
i think theyre comparable in terms of strength though stecna has a little more oomph than dndecna
cause double tapping someone is way easier when you have a good idea of the rooms layout. i had a game where i hit an eleven from two rooms away she probably thought i had a third eye
see this is the kind of shit i love playing killer for
he just has a bigger threat level imo
singularity and first both make me feel gigabrain when i do the plays well
i’m considering maining vecna but who knows, have to see how he holds up after ptb
hitting a god vine makes u feel like the goat
I wonder if Vecna with play with your food will get every single hit from the underground attack
type of shit that makes you say dracula flow quotes out loud
genuinely hitting flow state on vecna with thwack lmao
What addons are the best for vecna to use?
it depends on your build but you can get a lot of good pressure out of the sloppy butcher one. and i like the one that gives you aura on people you hit outside of worldbreaker just cause it makes getting the next hit easier
