Can a killer jump over fallen pallets??

[David is Back]

Have seen this today once and got very surprised. What the **cking bullsh*t? I thought it is one of the maion game mechanics that a killer cannot pass pallets once you pull them down until he breaks them, which takes some time.

Legion and wesker can do that, its normal.

But why? Any reason for that?

Also, I know who is Wesker because I know Resident Evil franchise, but who is Legion?
There was no such character in 2019 when I played this game for the last time.

The killer who was jumping today was a woman in black, as I remember.

Legion can be female or male, the lore says they are a group of teenagers who were envolved with and impulsive master mind :P

Legions power is basically that they injure you very easily, but then have a hard time downing you if you're good at looping. If they didn't have the ability to vault windows and pallets quickly, they would be straight up garbage.

Wesker is similar to killers like demogorgon and hillbilly, who can break pallets with their power, except he vaults them instead. There are pros and cons to it, but it's not really overpowered. You just need to know that he can do it, and try to play around it accordingly. If you're really cheeky, you can even bait wesker into charging at you, then sharply turn at the last second, forcing him into a window vault away from you.

Of course I know about Nurse, she is one of the first killers in DbD. But again, I am sometimes wondering why people who play her kill me exactly the way they do it.

I mean, I thought that her dash main ability was meant to make 1 second "shoot" from the distance onto the player and hit him, and that this shot is straight and fixed length.

But in fact I see people turning sideways making some "r" like trajectory, and also a very short one - so I cannot just press strafe (or make a sudden turn around the corner) at the moment she starts her dash (by the sound) and avoid getting myself taken down.

How do you mean you can counter a killer who jumps over any pallets right after you? I mean not dash like with Nurse (I have never played Wesker, so don't know what he can and cannot do), just simple jump over.

Then I must be wrong and my last time was in autumn of 2017 or in spring of 2018... I cannot say now for sure, old Steam account and an old PC which is not available now :)

He can do that only during frenzy and can't down you. Exiting frenzy pauses him for quite some time.

Ok, I got it :)

I was just hoping to leave him behind (because of time to run around or to break the pallets), and because he does not need to do it, I coulnd not run away and got hooked :) But maybe it was all my fault because I was so astonished that stopped running and stood still xD

Well you kind of worked this out already but generally if they're making the heavy breathing sounds (they're frenzied) then avoid palettes and try to tire them out first (you'll hear them make an annoyed kind of sound). Legion is very punishable if you do this. If you want to be sweaty you can estimate how long they have in frenzy and try to stun them at the end of it, which all but guarantees you escaping.
