Killing Jason bug?

[PartyMaster]

Ok so me and my friend have literally knocked jasons mask off 9-10 times in one night in a while bunch of PUB games and when we go through the whole sequence hypnotizing jason, Jason just gains this invisible wall of BS that doesn't allow anyone to hit him. We get his mask off, use the sweater and then when we go in for the stun to get him on his knee's with ANY weapon, he just has this invisible barrier that doesn't allow you to frikin hit him or it just doesn't work and its starting to piss us off because we would have killed Jason uncountable amounts of times....

Did you make sure to have Tommy grab Jason's mask?

[Uncle Cam Wants YOU]

in order to actually kill him, you need
1)The sweater on a female counselor
2)Knock off Jason's mask (which you clearly understand)
3)Have Tommy grab Jason's mask.
4)Have the female counselor witht he sweater stun Jason. I'm not TOO familiar with all weapon kill possibilities, so whether killing Jason is strictly Melee Specific and what not is meh to me.

So basically after the counselor stuns him witht he sweater, Tommy has to hit Jason in order to get him on his knees. After that, Tommy will be prompted to hold/press E in order to go through the killing animation. Also, I may be completely wrong here, but I've heard from a friend that killing Jason is MAP SPECIFIC and only possible in Camp Crystal Lake. too lazy to look it up.

You don't actually have to grab the mask BTW.

No mask needed, and axe does the job too.

Sweater girl doesn't need to hit him from behind. Also, it can be a baseball bat OR an axe.
Tommy can use a machete or an axe.
The rumor of Tommy needing the mask is false, you don't need it, it just needs to be taken off.

OK I'm familiar with how to kill Jason and all that ♥♥♥♥, I know the steps. The only step that has been a problem is actually STUNNING HIM! Does the girl with the sweater HAVE TO HAVE an AXE or a BAT? If she does, does she HAVE TO hit him from BEHIND? I'm pretty sure I've seen it done hitting him from the front too. Its only the stunning part thats been iffy right now.

The GIRL IN THE SWEATER absolutely HAS to hit him with the baseball bat or an axe. It does NOT have to be from behind, she just has to hit him.

From what I saw in the last couple of you tube vids, what they say is have a female wearing the sweater, we already established that, and she needs to have a blunt weapon in hand to knock him down. As Tommy, he has to make a hit with the axe or machete aimed at Jason's head. This has to be done in a matter of seconds or the animation will not take. Which causes alot of players to fail in this. I may be wrong about some of this, but this is what I saw out of 5-6 jason kill vids.

The sweater girl doesn't have to stun, once then sweater has been activated any player can do it.

Also killing jason in a pub is nearly impossible, either you need to stack the team with friends or go to a private match.

Things to remember:
1. The stronger jason is, the easier it is to break free of the sweater. If you are trying to kill jason, the jock players should spend the first part of the match attacking him with a machete or axe, and should continue to do so until tommy is called in and the team is ready to execute jason. It's best done in pair so you can rescue each other if they get grabbed.

Attacking jason with the machete or axe wears him down and makes it harder for him to recover from stuns or the sweater. My friends and I tested this, and freshly unmasked jason only has to spam E a few times to recover, this is why they experienced "the wall". Most likely he was recovered and was coming out of the animation, preventing the required second stun or preventing tommy from killing him.
If you have been harassing jason with sharp weapons (axe or machete) it will weaken him.

One approach is to harass him until eventually kills you, hopefully you'll respawn as tommy and then setup the final kill with your team.

The only weapons that work to kill him are the axe or machete, the machete is faster and seems easier. The axe is slower and can stun and damage him if he gets free.

Note: More experienced jason can immediately tell what you trying to do, and won't play along. And will probably morph away and try targeting other weaker counselors. Also, if they know the sweater is stolen, they will hunt down that player to , and use their melee weapon to cheese them, to avoid the pocket knife. For me once the sweater is gone, it becomes my top goal to kill that player and to shut down counselors.
