Is it too strong if Grim Embrace is added to Dead Man's Switch?

[味味Aパイコーチキン麺]

Recently, it's been observed that players all carry these two skills. Is it because there is a synergistic effect when these two skills are combined?

Made no difference in my games.

There may be more of that combo floating around because it almost auto-completes one of the challenges in the latest tome (I admit I cheesed it that way).

this.

Grim Embrace auto triggers DMS as it forces everyone to let go of the gen they are working on and that is not bad at all. So if you can reliably get hooks you will block generators reliably...

BUT
- works once per survivor
- no hook no block
- even if you get 4 blocks after that the Grim Embrace is over

Most times there is one survivor that is hard to catch which prevents you from fully using it.

Works extremely well if you dominate the survivors, not good if you are at equal skill level, and works absolutely NOT when you are dominated as the killer

In a nutshell, its a "win-more" combination. It won't flip games that you are losing.

Perks that help you recover from losing situations tend to be more meta. That doesn't stop some folks from running combos that give them the occasional power fantasy every once and a while.

Yep it's busted, I see it every match too, so annoying ruins my Hyperfocus+Fogwise value

[Voidlines]

I don't think it's as busted as everyone claims, it's mostly that it can proc multiple DMS' depending on how many survivors are on gens, adds more time than it should and highly depends on your teammates looping skill if the killer goes for someone else.

I still think GE should override DMS when you're booted off the generator and letting go after procs what is left of DMS, making the killer need to go out of their way to get that value.

grim embrace DMS is horribly broken and unfun. literally won't be touching the game until it gets changed.

It is not even that great of a combo where you have to sacrifice 2 perk slots for a temporar gen delay.
