I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

Just had the weirdest game with a bunch of Fengs that seemed to be intentionally feeding each other to the killer, and I noticed that I got no medal for Benevolence despite picking up and healing them while they were downed multiple times. Does every player get penalized when someone does an unsafe hook? Because that's what the score screen seemed to say.

Legion is surprisingly flexible. Lot of different builds will work with them.

Here’s an example of a wildly unconventional build that somehow works really well.

I can't believe I forgot about this video, it's one of the ones that got me to play and appreciate legion in the first place, though I still can't do that move otz does where he so perfectly blocks survivors as the post frenzy stun wears.

rydiafan posted:

I will never run Legion without Thanatophobia. You can get all four survivors injured in 10 seconds, and then they're boned. They either deal with a minus 20% repair speed for the rest of the game, or they waste a bunch of time healing up just for you to injure all of them in 10 seconds again. Even if you had Pop, I think this is better.

For the fourth, Undying will pair well with 3rd Seal, now that stacks don't reset.

I obviously did not understand how thanatophobia worked with mend/bleed stuff. I think I'll run it with pop or maybe go spicy and do Thrill because usually unless it gets cleared right at the start, it stays up the whole game.

Our new killer is still a complete joke despite massive public play testing.

DJC2021 is a 100k bp code.

Also played some Nurse today, got the 2 chain blink objective, but I'm not 100% certain what I was doing wrong with the chain blink since I hosed up a couple times. Do I need to hold the blink button after blinking or did I just miss the window? (Using kb+m).

to chain blink you just blink then do the same hold and release again to do it a 2nd time, but you only have like 1.5 seconds before fatigue kicks in from the first blink to do so

Basically never shoot for full distance from the second blink. It's about 12m max but eyeballing that even with plaid patch will get you stunned more often than not.

Start holding at any point during the blink. When the screen flashes white you have about a half a second to let go and blink again or you go into fatigue.

I've been playing so much Legion this weekend. I kept getting different ideas for experimentation but unfortunately my attempts at making stuff work weren't all good. In the end, I did end up happening upon a few good combos, but discordance/thanatophobia/x/x is still the backbone. Save the best for last seems to be very feast or famine. Hex: Third Eye Blind seems to give me a good amount of value too. Thrilling tremors and Corrupt intervention are another good duo alongside. I should start using thanatophobia on Plague too.

I thought I would have more trouble with the Nurse archive than I did, but turns out if you blunder around long enough survivors start being shits and click flashlights right in your face. Blink, smack, done

Now sacrificing someone specifically during Endgame Collapse, that's probably going to require breaking out the good old Insidious Bubba. Usually if things get to the endgame there aren't any stragglers, just a bunch of people teabagging at the finish line

Endgame collapse saccing isn't that hard you just chase someone while the gens are all done for a bit then camp the poo poo out of the hook once the exit gates are opened. The worse the game goes for you the more likely that one is to proc, honestly. If you do too well you're stuck with beating the last survivor to the hatch and then catching them on an exit gate if you manage the first part.

Doomykins

Run Whispers and/or play Trapper, luck into a group of average players or good ones who make a lot of mistakes, spot the hatch around 1-2 gens left. Whispers makes exit gate play really hard for the survivor and if you've got Trapper chops they can't win if you trap the gates with hatch closed.

Wraith with purple all seeing makes it pretty easy to keep tabs on people. Go hard and off however many people then just sort of peace out for the last few gens.

My new favorite Survivor trick is running Spine Chill/Red Herring/Repressed Alliance. Killer gets near, I block the gen and run off to a locker. Killer runs to the gen and visibly goes "Uh..."

New killer's power seems interesting, especially with the add-ons they get that do things like "the more blades you hit with the more Laceration they do" and "blades ricochet off the environment". Also that you can still move (at normal speed?) while throwing. It's like Fiddly Huntress.
