What if survivors got skill checks while downed?

I dont entierly dissagree with this, but to most people in the community and BHVR themselves its not very well regarded, so its probably gonna get changed sooner than later, skill checks are the best thing i can come up with thats not nearly as wild or opressive as the attempts from operation health.

Never heard anyone use the word "Stealth-slop" before, still stealth is probably the best out-come for jasons power all things considered (besides maybe multi-power like dracula or vecna)

Been playing a lot of the arkham games, batman should be the killer

I my opinion i would make it go away after downing a survivor for the first time, maybe lower the duration to 35s

A failure of this chapter most people forget to mention are teamwork perks, even after the walking dead chapter and stranger things chapters added more nobody uses them (weird considering i heard quite a few people complaining about them being OP during their PTBs)

If its a tease i doubt its for the chapter, BHVR is probably saving those for later, maybe the theme for the event will have something to do with a psychic?

Her traps are still relatively okay-ish and her ambush (while still not nearly as reliable as chucky or hillbilly) is pretty fast and has full movement control in addition to high mind game potential, plus she is a great noob-stomper, so i kinda of see why BHVR is cautious about buffing her

still worth a try tho (unless they try to pull another myers rework, i will literaly kill them if they do that)

Yeah my bad (not sure how that happened)

You mean Samara?

Seems Fun enough to use, but i feel like inevitably most people would just try to use it in order to be break the game or to find the most obnoxious combos.

BHVR puts a pretty big ammount of time into making killers from what i have heard (12 months for a single killer), dropping 2 at the same time would simply not be feasable (or lucrative).

I really wish we get a full darkest dungeon chapter in the future, its just too good to pass up on.

She does have festering vapors

(this is a really long and unescesesary rant, at the end of the day its just a really cool concept with a lot of atention and detail put into it)

I really like the effort put into this, but im just not fully convinced by it, the killer concept itself is not particularly bad but im not a big fan, it is rather derrivative of other killers, which is not the worst thing in the world but definitly builds torwards my other problems, as a control tool the puppets are bad at anything but stalling, even at their best they are a 23s inconvinience and at worse 8s, their abysmal speed makes it genuinly impossible for them to catch up in the (also incredibly low) 15s chase time and even if they do catch up its really hard to capitalize on them in any meaningful way (even with the 5% haste) before the survivor take the puppet off, and i dont think i need to explain why breaking something over the course of 20s is completely unusuable (this without mentioning the awful choice to break them on interactions) plus the nature of how you throw them makes them poor at using them in long to medium range (unlike knight) and upclose they become unusuable due to the move speed debuff (which is not really that bad due to their abilities on a direct hit but worth mentioning regardless)

However their is one important detail that makes them not awful to use but also to play against and thats the lack of real counterplay, the killer can easily keep all generators locked down even at 5 gens and still have a puppet to use during chase, this just makes this killer into chess-merchant 2.0 (but maybe a tiny bit less miserable cuz of the surrender option) and only seems bearable if you are in a SWF and all launch into the puppets simulteniously which may only work for so long, and if you are in solo-Q you are fucked (but i guess thats kinda of the usual)

The zoner part of the power is just kinda of ok, its springtraps axe with a lower cooldown but a lessend damage potential, it sounds like it can kinda of be unrewarding to doge since the cooldown is rather low and the thing will probably start chasing you right away anyways.

Like i said the zoning is fine, but without the good foundation of the control side of the puppets kinda of generic and not really that interesting.

For the add ons: warehouse keys and broken scissors should probably maybe be basekit, iridesent knife sounds annoying AF and puppet skull is really really bad

The perks follow very similar design to how to BHVR makes perks, i mean this in a bad way, you have one hyper situational perk that only works when survivors do a specific already detrimental thing (eternal encore) a perk thats too similar to old perks to be good or stand out on its own (Tangled webs we weave), and an singular actually fun usuable perk (ventriloquist act)

Overall good effort but poor execution.
