The Saw killer is way too OP.

[Lucîfer]

Dear DBD-Development,

the Saw-Killer is too unbalanced.
If you search the trap removal things in the wrong order, you have no chance to get out of it and you die instant. You can do nothing about it if you do it in the wrong order, thats kinda unfair, isn't it?

There are a few guides on Youtube and online of how to deal with her. She can definitely be dealt with if you know how.

Dear newcomer Survivor,

Your complaint is irrelevant since you are still extremely new to the game and haven't gotten good yet.

Please come back in a couple of hundred hours.

Greetings.

Nah, I can tell a lot about mechanics. So lets talk about mechanics.
For example the huntress map - the spots to remove the trap are all over the map. There's a chance where only the last spot you check is the right one. And if this is the case and theres only a second of interference with the killer you are dead.

Sorry, but no, you don't understand the game well enough.

Your complaints have no weight around here until you play a lot more.

While the Jigsaw boxes are a lot harsher on larger maps because there's more ground to cover, your complaints still don't hold much water outside of that. You get a pretty lenient timer to search the traps which is enough to travel around every map in the game, and if the Killer does decide to interfere with your search the RBT's timer will pause.

I never die from trap ... in the worst case I have 30 s remain : map asylum which is huge, I search each chest, I lose the killer two times and I even get the opportunity to save a teammate ....
The only way you could die from this is if the killer tunnel you and stop you to search chest ( but in this case he lose pip) he bodyblock you in the basement, or you try to leave by with the trap in the end game by exit door....

Toss ruin in there and you've got a real snore-chore.

You should almost never die to a reverse bear-trap. The jigsaw traps have a VERY lenient timer which only starts AFTER your teammates do a generator while you have the trap. Killer also has a limited supply of them, usually enough to trap every survivor exactly once. Meaning if you get rid of it, you probably won't get a second one.

If you are downed or hooked or the killer is near you, the trap timer pauses. Meaning if the killer tunnels you, the RBT is irrelevant. In order for the timer to be triggered in the first place, your teammates have to start a generator while you have the RBT. Good players would prolly avoid that, giving you almost free escape from the RBT.

ps. This is a game of survival horror. It is intended to be 'unfair', but actually does a pretty poor job at it. As someone who regularly plays with the Pig, people dying to the RBT only happens once in a blue moon. I think I've gotten total of 5 RBT kills ever since I started playing the Pig , and 3 of these happened by 'exploiting' the end zone thing which has since been fixed. You really should trust us when we say this is on you. Play the game, learn, and get better.

Or, in the words of wise Confucius:

ps. Additional pro advice: offerings that increase luck, increase your chances of finding a key from a jigsaw puzzle.

oh no dude this is just bad shes a mid tier killer right below myers and above wraith. you have 2:30 seconds to get the trap off and it takes like 20 seconds to take the trap off and it will take around 30-40 seconds to get inbetween all of the boxes. so in other words git gud surv op

Hey guys, 23 hours here
I know this game in and out
Amanda Young is unbalanced

[Dihydrogen Monoxide™]

In all seriousness
Amanda ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks
It takes 2:30 baseline to take a trap off, that's enough to run around the map and take your trap off. If you're in a chase, the timer stops. You have more than enough time I would say.
I've never died to Amanda, and I'm around the ranks where both Survivor and Killer's difficulty curves are taking their turn.
If you wanna talk OP, talk about the Nurse. She can down someone who just Decisive Striked them in 0.2 secs. She can ignore pallets and vaults no issue. Albeit, she does have a high difficulty, which is her balancing act, no one seems to complain about her. Hmm.
It seems whenever a new Killer is released, people who play DbD like once a month complain about not being able to survive the new Killer and the devs "balance" them around the lower ranks to appease the new people. Think Freddy.
Amanda also suffers from gen rushing, pallet looping and so on. Very much geared towards the survivor. She can't ignore pallets, if she tries to sneak attack, she can't as a loud ass noise you can hear from the Pale Rose to the giant pier things giving her away. Amanda is mid-tier best.
23 hours and you wanna complain about game balancing?

You should watch how OchiDO, Monto, Noob3 play on Youtube/Twitch.

Just wondering, (since your account is private) how many hours have you played? My guess is 250-350 hrs.

He's one of the wiki's admins. I think there is no need for the 'how many hours do you have because your profile is private' talk.
