So are Call of Brine and Overcharge no longer getting murdered?

because 125% regression speed is not enough to be useful.

[Probably afk tbh]

Nope they are pretty much dead.

♥♥♥♥♥ sake. Why are the devs murdering every thing gen defense perk while genrush is strong as hell.

yeah, kinda noticed they only addressed the survivor issues and ignored the killer issues with the update. asides from Billy, whose changes nobody liked

The problem IMHO lies in the basic design of the game. When every character can get every perk in the game you cannot really balance it.

Without Call of Brine Sadako is significantly harder to play. So, either you penalise her to balance other killers or keep CoB the way it is and other killers become OP. There is no solution.

For me i dont know what i will do CoB was the only gen regressing perk i was using. Now that the perk is gone i dont know what to run when i play killer. Pain res is 4 use only on 4 different survivor on a scourge hook that require rng to be on your side this is not optimal. Jolt dont give enough regression to matter you can still just finish the gen by the time the killer hook the down survivor.

Im kinda stuck with survivor until the dev decide to buff some gen regressing perk or release a new perk during the aniversary

Because the 3gen meta was one of the most unfun meta's we have had, up there with the old DS/DH/Unbreakable, it literally prolonged match upwards to 40 minutes just for everyone to dc out of boredom.

Also did you not see the Pain res change?

Nope, Survivors got all of their nerfs reverted except for 1 or 2, but all of the Killer changes are staying. Thanks, BHVR.

COB was weak though. It was the pairing with Overcharge that made it worthwhile, because it punished players for trying to gen tap to completely halt any regression. Both perks are DOA now, though.

Devs have and always will be favoring survivors. seen it for years.

Because Survivor players cried nonstop on all social media, and review bombed the game into the dirt. So we're getting all of the nerfs with none of the Survivor nerfs that were meant to balance our nerfs out. Wonderful design decision, isn't it?

[NarkoTri1er]

the whole gen regression meta is dead, but the whole point of the patch to actually change the killer meta is dead too, since all the reverted changes give the clear conclusion that Hit & Run won't become a meta strategy as it was intended at first

[Tragopan]

Dead Hard and Circle of Healing will become niche, dead perks just like holding an indefinite 3 gen for 40 minutes will become niche and dead. The meta was successfully changed for both sides... is this not what both sides have been calling for? I really don't understand how you can expect to have your cake and eat it too.

[BoBr]

Just play Nurse or Blight or leave the game, you can't play M1 killers now since all gen regression perks are dead (yes, 25% pain res is ♥♥♥♥).

[Facu]

A simple change would be that you cant make both perks interact to add % or just that the effects works but the game takes the perk with less "value" for the regression idk.

CoH is not dead and I suspect it will still be quite meta and in almost every game, you can heal in 8 seconds in it. All that is needed is for survivors to not place it in the middle of nowhere anymore. I'll agree though that DH will likely see less play.
