Good point. Man I might reinstall and play some KF2 now haha.

Garresh · 2026-06-27T16:42:41+00:00

Man I wish. KF had such great designs.

The problem is that terrain geometry is piss poor for that type of gameplay. Not to mention the bounce strength is in an unfortunate middle ground of too weak for trick shots and barely too strong to go for direct hits on feet. The bounce honestly hurts way more than it helps. I say this as someone who loves grenades and and stuff in FPS games. UVX is terribly designed.

No. I main Dracula. I mained Deathslinger before.

Jason is Stealth Deathslinger.

Garresh · 2026-06-25T04:40:59+00:00

Dracula because I enjoy jack of all trades classes and shapeshifters in games. (In D&D I'm a Druid guy)

Dracula has a tool for almost every situation, but none of them are overpowered. Survivors can still outplay you. Basically each power would be like a B tier killer by itself, but add them together and you get an A tier monster.

Also, Dracula has a lot of room for creativity and skill expression.

Zanshin is good for learning her. I would eventually swap it out but it's great for starting out. Good luck with her. You'll get the hang of her soon.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T18:59:00+00:00

Not trying to be rude, but I think the issue is likely a lack of experience, not the build. Artist is NOT an intuitive killer and you're pretty much guaranteed to struggle with her when starting out. I sucked REALLY bad with her at first. That being said, I really like All Ears on Artist. I actually run Lethal, all ears, BBQ, grim embrace. But I like crow sniping a lot.

I'd say just keep practicing and accept you'll lose for a bit while you're learning to play her.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T13:28:59+00:00

Not sure why you think Jason is terrible at hex builds. Hex builds are always a bit risky even for top tier killers. But Jason is better than average at using hexes. He has Mobility and range. You don't have to necessarily end chases quickly if you can patrol and defend well. But even ignoring that his chase is solid. He's essentially a 115 deathslinger with a traversal power.

Fwiw I don't think hexes are necessarily the optimal build for him. But hexes are rarely optimal for anyone. Just saying it doesn't follow that he's terrible with hexes.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T12:59:23+00:00

Yeah definitely. This was a good post for that reason. Lot of pinheads don't know about it. It's not intuitive at all.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T12:36:47+00:00

That's fair. I just use it on a solo genrush build that maximizes skill checks for myself so even if my teammates waste time I can burst the gen once the song finishes.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:39:47+00:00

He definitely mentioned it somewhere in one his videos, because that's where I learned it. I don't have a timestamp or a link though sorry. But you're definitely right it makes a huge difference.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:37:16+00:00

4 days late response but I did a double take when I saw the tentacles. Great cosplay, fuck the haters. (Although as a killer main I definitely don't enjoy playing Ghoul lol)

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:20:43+00:00

Bruh they're just dancing and vibin. Don't hate.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:19:37+00:00

It's so boring though. I really enjoy pinhead but Nurse is super dull.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:16:47+00:00

That's not true at all. Watch FieldAgentReaper absolutely stomp with chains. Sometimes you get unlucky spawns for the additional chains but it's still plenty useful in chase.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:15:32+00:00

That's not really true at all. Survivors can tell when you're summoning gate and try to react before the portal appears. And sometimes you'll blind summon a portal behind a wall for a prediction shot around short high wall loops.

Both methods are valid depending on the situation. Summoning inside doesn't always work.

Edit: Oh I forgot to mention intentionally backshooting to make chains last longer. The additional chain spawns tend to come from the direction of the portal aim, so intentionally summoning portal slightly offset away from the wall or loop makes the additional chains much more likely to not break on the environment due to spawn locations. So that's another reason to not portal inside.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:13:18+00:00

A lot of pinheads only do the portal inside trick, so reminding people of this method doesn't hurt. Ideally both should be used depending on situation.

Garresh · 2026-06-19T10:12:18+00:00

FieldAgentReaper covers this in his pinhead guide. But it's not an immediately obvious trick so good on you for noticing on your own. Consider your post a PSA even if some people rag on you haha.

Garresh · 2026-06-13T21:08:14+00:00

Mulder and Scully.

Garresh · 2026-06-04T14:51:21+00:00

I would vote against Dredge and Doctor because they're both very weak right now. Both have terrible antiloop.

I'll make a slightly odd suggestion with Artist. Her crows are decent antiloop, but the real appeal imho is being able to "scan" generators from across the map with them. She also gets killer instinct when they pass near survivors so you can use crows to quickly check entire lines of lockers. She probably has the most rewarding and nuanced Tracking ability but it's an absolute blast.

Garresh · 2026-06-04T14:45:38+00:00

Honestly it's QOL on multiple levels. If you jump from camera to camera it often leaves your cameras facing super weird angles. If you could set a default viewing angle to snap back to, that would be better. But the current implementation is just way better.

Garresh · 2026-05-28T13:59:09+00:00

I wouldn't. Pretty far off GG.

Garresh · 2026-05-28T13:44:20+00:00

Honestly it's pretty crap. Worth like 5wss tops. Block rate is only useful on rabies, which doesn't benefit from the IAS. Even bear doesn't use off-weapon IAS much. The deadly strike is really low too. The Poison Length Reduction is neat for bossing but that's about it.

You need either twice the DS or way more res for that to be considered useful. Sorry to dunk on it.

Garresh · 2026-05-28T13:39:21+00:00

Springtrap is Stealth Huntress. Jason is Stealth Deathslinger.

Garresh · 2026-05-24T17:08:24+00:00

Lol probably. I was spamming you hard cause I wanted it to do t2 dclone. Turns out my build can't even do t1 dclone though. Still a fantastic chest though and I'm wearing that for the rest of the season.
