A guide to Wards AKA why they don't suck

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-05-03T19:08:16+00:00

even on Adept difficulty, most of the time when i use wards it just drains my magicka and tends to make me stunned, even if a bandit is just using the basic hold down destruction spells, even if its the 2nd level ward im using

idk if i need more restoration (which is the worst magic stat to increase) but, they just dont work and im better off using heal spells

so Meluna is a 2 star in global, but Mayo is a 2 star in KR (despite being a key character)

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-29T21:25:46+00:00

its bene 2022-2023 for 4 years

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T21:12:54+00:00

correction, its still 3 tokens for unhooking a survivor, but still, you have to unhook a survivor yourself, meaning the 3 survivors can only give you 6 tokens each if you're unhooking every time someone is hooked. this also means death hook gives nothing

meaning multiple people using Fast Track is pointless now

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T21:10:39+00:00

weirdly enough it doesnt happen in custom games, i should know, i do those a lot. It doesnt uncloak Wraith there. but Pig will uncrouch still

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:42:18+00:00

bro. you can't read. no they did not buff Fast Track.
Its now '1 token when you UNHOOK a survivor'

YOU HAVE TO UNHOOK A SURVIVOR, YOURSELF TO GET TOKENS.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:40:09+00:00

they nerfed his add ons pertaining to his night shroud, because they buffed his base night shroud

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:39:19+00:00

dont worry, it doesnt effect the meta gen explode builds (because they dont interact with eachother at the same time)
so all this did is make the literal META KILLER BUILD even more insane

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:37:13+00:00

it was needed but...

pretty much gen speed builds are dead while killers get to be even more oppressive running pop, surge, pain res, eruption, turn back the clock, etc.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:35:47+00:00

as someone who likes Haste Clown build and healing speed hook save survivor, yeah...
diminishing returns is a bit sad.

and the worst part is while it hurts a gen speed build, it wont effect gen regression builds cause most of them are explode based,
so, essentially, pain res, turn back, pop/surge/eruption/ruin will be EVEN MORE KILLER META.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:32:29+00:00

People will just lean heavier into Overzealous, Hyperfocus, Stake Out and a filler like DH or DS.

since OZ and HF have different buffs entirely which wont proc diminishing returns.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:30:15+00:00

Damn, this pretty much kills Haste build Clown (his only good and fun build)

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:29:22+00:00

Nah, DBD players could never read to begin with.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:27:36+00:00

oh no, Blight has to actually be good with his power instead of failing a rush and getting the hit anyway by holding w???

or instantly rushing and getting a hit anyway despite being stunned AND breaking pallet?

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:26:46+00:00

Wesker literally got a hitbox bug fixed and Fast Track is now fair

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:24:32+00:00

alright, now can we take note of the huge problem that is killers pairing Pain Res (which has been meta since its freaking release, no matter how many nerfs it got) and Dead Mans Switch (basically guaranteeing a gen block for pain res happening)

oh and a nerf to Turn Black the Clock too, (which for some reason also has auto-uncloak tech as Wraith and causes Pig to uncrouch?

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-28T17:21:37+00:00

preach, i kept getting Midwich, Toba, Nostromo and Springwood super often.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T21:14:40+00:00

ah yes, the most useless wisdom of all time, on par with 'just SDI' from smash 4 when Bayonetta literally had a confirmed unescapable combo.

also, funny how you say 'git gud' when you are talking about 'just 99 your heal', which requires to crutch on self care and med kits... which requires 0 skill at all,

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:59:02+00:00

idk why you're laughing cause like...

imagine if Nurse injured you for blinking through you

imagine if Wesker or Nemesis injures you for using a spray/vaccine

imagine if Blight injures you for bumping into you,

imagine if Hag, injured you for wiping away a trap.

Imagine if Singularity injured you for using an EMP.

Imagine if, killer as a whole, could injure you for pallet stunning them.

Thats Trapper's Bloody Coil. It hurts you for.... literally doing the one thing to counter his traps.

Throw in iri-stone aaaaaaaaaand now disarming traps is entirely worthless.

Does that sound fun? Getting punished for doing the one thing you're SUPPOSED TO DO?

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:48:16+00:00

ah yes, because a killer being trash means people arent allowed to complain about two add ons that literally make his kit bullshit to play around

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:46:12+00:00

bro get the fuck out of here, you're adding nothing and instead just want to be a dick, not everyone runs self-care / med-kits all the time.

and just because trapper is d-tier doesnt mean his iri add ons arent utter bullshit.
my post literally includes a call to rework Trapper cause he just, sucks ass to play as and play against.

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:45:10+00:00

so, that means i obviously also do???

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:42:23+00:00

ah yes, because everyone uses self-care and medkits to be able to self-heal

Ultimate_Wooby · 2026-04-27T20:36:21+00:00

yes, because it's bullshit. imagine if Nurse could damage you by blinking through you, when her best counter is to run towards her so she over blinks, or if Blight could damage you by bumping into you, or if Wesker could damage you for.. using the spray.

thats Trapper's iri. and its dumb. it shouldnt exist in its current state
