Nancy a bit to OP?

[Shaboing]

Not looking here to fight with anyone this is just simply my opinion.

I think Nancy is over powered. Because not only does she have the ability to see where you are, she can also install traps and when she hits you it gives you the same like concussed status like sissy's poison would do. She is like three killers in one. I played a match against her as a full health Connie and she basically insta killed me because I could not get away with that concussed status effect. I couldn't run away or gain any distance. If her power was just like the all seeing eye thing and that hit I would understand because then its like johnny with his power and his small stun. And sissy's is understandable because that's part of her power.

My main point is i don't see fairness in having basically three powers on one character. Again just my opinion I'm not complaining its just how I feel about this.

(also I play both sides so im not taking one over the other)

Sad state of affairs when you feel you have to announce that you're "not looking" to fight anyone when wanting to discuss a topic on a discussion board.

Yea i just read all these posts and so many fight over it.

She can't chase, the poison is a perk, her traps are easily disarmed and easier to spot than Hitchhiker's and her power is overall worse than Cook's though it can randomly be very useful at times.

yeah idk why they decided to make the sissy poison bug a perk on her, also her lvl 3 ability makes Cook's ability look like a joke.

The poison that Nancy inflicts is only if you have a perk called Poison Claws equipped. So not every Nancy will have this Perk. She is extremely slow and does not have very good stamina so I feel like this is a fair compensation. Maybe you got cornered? I often see people getting away from Nancy's Poison Claws effect. If you have multiple family members on you with this effect however, I could see how you might die quickly.

Her main ability to see victims is very very blurry and distorted at least for the first two levels. Often I cannot make out where the victims are exactly, unless they are doing something obvious like opening a gate or door. Or differentiating the basement or being outside lol There is something called Clear Eyes which clears up the distortion. You can equip this in the skill tree at level three, but I have not tested this out yet as I am only a level 2 Nancy.

Her traps are pretty good, however she can only really use them in between crawlspaces cracks and doorways with no doors. They are not usable to trap valve or fuse or window escapes. Basically, they can be avoided unless your are being chased and are desperate for a escape route. Also her traps can be disabled by family members walking through them, which happens more often than I would like lol. It is a real PITA because they do take longer to set up than Hitchhikers traps.

Folie, I see that I just think with the poison effect it gets too like out of control.. I definitely think she has potential its just I would also like to see like a new power come into play instead of having basically the same things as the other family members. I definitely have to play with her and my opinion might change. I just felt that with the matches I had she seemed a bit over the top.

Yeah I agree, the traps and sensing should be enough, she also seems very quick so she doesn't need to poison a victim she is chasing.

Let me copy that buld bro XDDD

Not really. Her ability works only if the player knows the map to the smallest box, or if you are unlucky enough to hide right behind. Plus, she is awful at chase, due to low speed and stamina, just like Cook. Her traps can be a problem, yes, especially during chase, but bigger than HH traps.

Not to mention that most of the times she is paired with Cook in the games because old people are funny, I guess, so you often has to worry only about one killer during those chases. Unless, of course, those bright heads brough Johnny with them as the third killer, then it's real free estate to escape.
