I started rewatching a lot of old otz videos, it's crazy how Wesker was released last year! Wow does time fly, you've been around for so long and your doing amazing otz keep it up.
@@itzme_ben1hime But if his base has counterplay, then how much better do his add-ons make him, really? I guarantee you, half his strength comes from the PC advantage. You'd never get those same hits on console where you can't do hard mouse flicks. Fix that, and you fix him.
Otz i really appreciate you as a content creator! I feel like it’s so rare to find someone who’s so humble, but still very confident, in their craft. You don’t shy from showing gameplay that shows your losing matches and it’s so refreshing. Thank you for being you Otz’s clone!
21:02 *drops pallet even though the Otz is behind him* *dead hards into the pallet* *Slow vaults the pallet* Damn, what an amazing play. I wish I had survivors doing that in Bronze IV, instead of cooperating, taking protection hits, and healing together.
Rank is reset every month. Not everyone plays all the time. Good players don't play all the time. People have lives. They're just good at the game and BHVR doesn't have a reliable SBMM yet so anyone can be low tier and almost anyone can get to Iri 1
IMO she should get the Legion/Ghostface treatment where all her percentaged recovery add-ons are combined into one good add-on. She already has two add-ons that instantly recharge her power. She doesn't need five add-on focused on power recovery.
If bite the bullet hid your aura you could just bring a big medkit or even self care to stay injured and dodge aura reading anytime you think the killer might see you. Then u could still run 2 or 3 other meta perks instead of distortion or shadow step.
Dried Cherry Blossom's "nerf" is actually a buff considering you can more accurately tell WHERE the Survivor is with the add-on. Sure, you won't get the detection from afar, but like Whispers, the less range there is, the better you'll be at finding a Survivor's exact location.
I don't see how that's true. The extended range didn't mean less accuarcy, since killer instinct gave you the survivor's position, unlike whispers, where you could argue reduced range would increase precision.
The ratio of recovery of phase to use of phase is 1.76 with old yakuyoke and is 1.8 with the new rusty flute. The flute has no speed downside, though, so its arguably better. Moreover, they buffed green and brown recovery, but neglected that there's a yellow recovery, so now the brown does more. Dub behavior.
Do you think you could also do a video about Sadako's "Buffs" as well? You're a respected community figure and the more people who find out she's been nerfed instead of buffed, the more likely we are to prevent them from dumpstering an already bad killer. I believe BHVR did her rework with good intentions, but they failed, and they might be willing to buff her up before live.
The online bully talk reminds me of the recent ousting of Stream Sniping discord group on WoW. Turned out pretty much everyone in that group were miserable losers with life control issues. Not just "mom's basement" types but also severe drug crimes and abuse, stuff like that. Years ago one serial-SWATter, streamer- stalker and griefer turned out to be a violent psychopath who abused his mother all the time too. So more often than not, people who consistently do nothing but online bully people around are genuinely mentally ill individuals.
As a Spirit main, I'm a little sad to see the nerfs but I understand why they were needed. I didn't use them often but combining MDR and Amulet were a lot of fun. However, since Amulet had the "downside" of slowing phase speed by 15%, MDR shouldn't feel any different to me with other add-ons. What I would REALLY like for Spirit is to visually see when her passive phasing is active while playing her since only survivors get to see it. I sometimes like using her Juniper Bonsai add-on, but it's prettt much impossoble to know if I'm getting any value out of it. Hopefully the devs can do something about that in the future.
@@kingol4801 yes. they were. her duration addons were literally bugged and have been fixed. MDR is still amazing even after the nerf, because seeing scratch marks is not even that important when phasing. I literally play Spirit and think these nerfs were needed lmao.
@@red.4712they werent bugged, now her basic addons have downsides i cant really think of any other killer that has downside on using common and yellow addons (except maybe Billy and bubba but beast marks has so much payoff that it is worth)
the btb buff otz suggested where it hides aura would be so nice. I think there should be perks that are answers to other perks so theres more thought into what is and isnt worth taking, like how deerstalker may actually be useful when nicholas cage releases for his plot twist
I hate that deerstalker is a thing. It shouldn't counter nic cage and that's coming from a non biased player. If anything distortion should work in the dying state to force people to run distortion if they want to counter deerstalker. It's Hella unfair that deerstalker went from a noob killer slugging perk to a perfect counter to a decent survivor perk making it useless.
but actually imagine this : instead of survivors being able to resurect allies , the killer would have a passive that a dead survivors can become temporary phantoms where they were hooked that make living survivors scream when they get close to it , it would fade way after some time
My favorite build on Spirit is running save the best for last with a movement speed add-on and an activation speed add-on, spirit being able to mindgame at loops longer and more frequently was cool but even more so now that those add-ons are getting nerfed I like this combo because you recover from a hit really quick and catch up to them super quick so within seconds you're either right on their ass again or you got a second hit already.
@@lilyflower5895 You're literally stealing almost my whole build too lol, I run discordance instead of pop since I like finding people for stacks and gen defense.
@@SupremeDalek225 LMAO true. Sometimes I do No Way Out too instead of Pop, but the recent Pop buff got me feeling some kind of way. It's sooooooo satisfying.
Quick and quiet makes I’m all ears not work for that vault, so I think it’s fair that bite the bullet would block nurses calling. Also Otz I would like to know, why do you not collect some of your daily challenge bp.
I wonder if dark devotion still will apply its terror radius on the obsession if hit while they're in the Dreamworld. What I'm getting at is even if they have the oblivious status effect, will the terror radius still be able to affect survivors and ignore the oblivious effect?
I think these nerfs are pretty solid (balanced I mean) but the lean into having to use your power more sparingly, along with MFT being in the state it is makes me nervous about how much pressure Spirit is able to maintain consistently.
I'm just pissed that Spirit is getting another nerf, while Blight's Alchemist Ring and Blighted Crow are STILL in the game. Along with triple blink Nurse, which they gave a reasonable drawback too, but it's still bad. So why is Spirit getting another hit while the two titans still haven't been touched?
FR! I find it insane that they've nerfed add-ons like Marvin's Blood and Stale Biscuit (because ofc Twins needed that) but then there's Alchemist's Ring that hasn't been changed in over the 3 years since Blight's release.
Spirit is insanely unfun and unfair to play against and effectively turns every situation into a 50/50. Blight has obvious counterplay even with his strength. A good spirit (who doesn't take much to be good at) has already been on the same level as blight and nurse for so long while taking fraction of the time investment to learn in comparison.
Because BHVR doesn’t play DBD. I mean that legitimately, they make their balance decisions based off statistics. So they look at add-on usage and go “hmm, this add-on gets used way more than the others. It must be too strong” meanwhile they don’t know the context that the reason that add-on gets used is because all others are either complete crap, or that particular add-on makes the killer playable. It’s why they nerfed Marvin’s blood on Nemmy for no reason. Blight on the other hand, has a lot of very good add-ons. So even though Alch ring is op. If you look at a spread sheet all his add-ons likely have similar usage rates. So BHVR goes “well, they’re balanced”
@@surinaam1186 its crazy that there are still whiny bitches who think spirit is oppressive when she's only strong in the hands of an insane killer, or when facing weak survivors. If it was actually strong AND easy, it'd be played a lot more. She has enough skins to be popular, so why the low playrate? It's because it's not actually good. People know what's strong, you can tell by what they play. No one plays Spirit, because it isn't as good as Blight or Nurse. It's also funny that you tried to sneak in the lie that Blight has *_obvious_* counterplay thinking that was gonna slide. The "obvious" counterplay is to just not face Blights who have speed add-ons. You can't do anything to avoid getting hit if he's rushing at 3x your speed, except pre-drop every pallet and get rid of every pallet in your first chase. And if he has his ridiculous add-on Compound 33, then even dropping pallets doesn't help you, since he instantly destroys them and slows you so he can still catch up.
@@loudwhispre9406Wild how the majority of top tier survivor players I've talked to seem to hate spirit and find her extremely oppressive to play against. Even the best survivors struggle against her and make big misplays because she effectively turns every loop into a guessing game. Nurse has a low play rate and a low kill rate. Does that mean she is weak aswell? The reason why blight is so popular is because he's legitimately fun to play and has a steep and rewarding learning curve. Spirit is easy to play and doesn't feel satisfying. That's probably why you don't see her as much.
hi, Otz. Maybe it's not the best idea for a video but how about making comparisons at how killers looks like from survs POV (weapon's position, body movement, etc) and same from killer's POV? It'd be interesting to find out the most similar pictures from both sides. Thank you!
So yesterday i played Spirit for the first time in many many months. And i got reminded why i play her rarely. For some reason whenever i queue up with her i get GOD SURVIVORS. Its not even close. Always 4/4 loop masters, gens pop left and right and with no other killer do i get teabagged as much. I really don't know why its so bad with her compared to other killers.
New survivor idea made from this vid is the ability to summon a 0 health state bot when it gets hit it dies but it makes scratch marks and grunts like a normal survivor
I feel like the flute buff to 40% is kinda insane. this will cut off like 6 seconds of the total 15 seconds recharge time. seems like she can still be very oppressive with this addon, you can basically just spam your power without having much downtime cause the recovery is so fast.
Yeah fully agreed, the devs need to be careful when buffing cooldown addons on a power that can be used as tactically as Spirit’s, she can traverse, use it in chase, mind game with it, it’s a lot and nearly half of its seconds off is such a huge deal, it’s probably a good idea to make it only 30 or 35%
It cuts only 4.3 sec. It is not - 40% recharge time, it is + 40% recovery rate. Base recovery 0.(3) charge per second Recovery with flute 0.(3) * 1.4 = 0.4(6) Recharge time with flute 5 / 0.4(6) ≈ 10.71
@@DwayneTheSquidJohnson No, it's fine. She's played almost never, and she's only got 2 types of add-ons that are popular, speed and duration. By buffing something that never gets used, it makes this patch give AND take add-ons from her, instead of just take add-ons away.
@@loudwhispre9406Dude, what? Spirit is still one of the best killers in play. If she doesn’t see play it’s only because newer players aren’t willing to learn how to properly play them
2:47 “I’m just gonna go in the pallet and try to get a hit, no mind games” He then immediately tries and mind games the nea into thinking he’ll appear on the other side of shack Right right, no mind games; I’ll just break the pallet
Which is fair. Spirit cannot even to through walls and obstacles in her power. Making her blind is just unnecessary and accessibility-problematic (there are a lot of deaf people playing the game, btw)
@@kingol4801her not being able to see survivors is a huge part of the balance of the killer, being able to see survivors would make her super easy and broken
I feel like cross progression is so slow to come because ive seen people who can cheat on pc to add iri shards, add levels, prestige killers, unlocked killers for free, and even give themselves items/add ons. Imagine someone making a new account with everything 100% unlocked and then using that to play on console with everything for free EDIT: meant to add that would all be on the lowest possible mmr. And if the person cheating just so happens to be a smurf on top of it all, they would be able to make matches absolutely unbearable for those new players they get matched with
As one of the ten spirit mains who doesn’t exclusively run mother daughter ring I’m still really happy about this. It’s a broken unfair addon, and I think we always knew the duration “feature” would be removed eventually. It will hopefully push more people to actually learn spirits power and mind games rather than hold phase to win
@@kingol4801 again, spirit main, mother daughter ring is a guaranteed win against anyone that isn’t a full comp team. It is one of, if not the strongest addon in the game and makes the game incredibly boring for the killer
@@AutumnCosplay you don’t speak for everyone. i say it makes the game fun for me since i move at usain bolt speed and it pisses people off. but you keep sucking on that survivor schlong
Hey otz, I've seen on the forums that with this duration bug fixed, bubba's addons that were bugged are fixed as well, e.g. iri carburator thing (there is an insane montage with double iris). Can you test it?
Here's what could be done to bite the bullet to counter nurses, while healing aura detection does not work on you. That includes friendly aura detection, however really, that alone could be a perk, but if that alone was a perk then it should be killer's aura detection only, that doesn't work.
I genuinely don't understand the point of playing an entire like 14 minute game only to DC as you're being carried to the last hook. The altruistic reason might be to avoid a hook based perk being used against your team but like, the killer still removes you from the game which is their objective so what's supposed to be the punishment here? You get them closer to their win condition by like 5 seconds...way to stick it to the killer, Nea.
In recent history, before this nerf was announced, was spirit an issue? Majority of my games have been wesker, knight, huntress. I gave a spirit once a month and the don't use powerful Add ons.
Otz, for the first game, if u already have territorial, why not hook the first survivor and/or the last gen survivor in the basement? Isn't the basement the best place to hook regardless?
Tbh i honestly think these Nerfs now make Wesker the Top of A tier by a Hair strand, him and Sprit are so good but these nerfs for me put Wesker in the top spot of A tier
The fact that he thinks that bite the bullet should also block nurses calling is proof that this guy is a survivor main. Why would it be bad if one perk counters another? That’s the whole point of perks and not knowing what the other person brought in. It’s a game of rock paper scissors, which is what makes it fun and exciting
Not really. Aside from BBQ, Survivors cannot know when the Killer is using an aura reading perk. They would need to be healing when the aura read activates to be hidden. It would be like how Off the Record hides your aura but doesn’t tell you that the Killer is using an aura reading perk.
Otz I have an amazing survivor build for the ptb. The usual power struggle, flip-flop, unbreakable combo is great, but what about adding plot twist to down yourself at a pallet and guarantee the right amount of wiggle progression to pallet stun the killer.
Ez counter. Just let them bleed to death, or force them to use plot twist recovery and ultimately disable it. Slugging and leave pallet plot twist meta incoming
Its interesting that Otz says at 5:18 that "these add-ons are better than almost anything the Spirit has" and it is a yellow & brown. How sad is it that the red & blues are so bad?
Hey Otz! I hope you see this but I've been watching your videos on and off for years and I'm really impressed how dedicated you are to making DBD content! What keeps you so interested? I love watching your vids btw!

Yeah fully agreed, the devs need to be careful when buffing cooldown addons on a power that can be used as tactically as Spirit’s, she can traverse, use it in chase, mind game with it, it’s a lot and nearly half of its seconds off is such a huge deal, it’s probably a good idea to make it only 30 or 35%
It cuts only 4.3 sec.
It is not - 40% recharge time, it is + 40% recovery rate.
Base recovery 0.(3) charge per second
Recovery with flute 0.(3) * 1.4 = 0.4(6)
Recharge time with flute 5 / 0.4(6) ≈ 10.71
@@DwayneTheSquidJohnson No, it's fine. She's played almost never, and she's only got 2 types of add-ons that are popular, speed and duration. By buffing something that never gets used, it makes this patch give AND take add-ons from her, instead of just take add-ons away.
@@loudwhispre9406Dude, what? Spirit is still one of the best killers in play. If she doesn’t see play it’s only because newer players aren’t willing to learn how to properly play them
Also, yakuyoke amulet gave you 70% bonus recovery. Amulet with old ring was much more better than ring with flute now
Its kinda crazy that some of Blight's add-ons weren't touched. Like, Alch Ring needs a good smack by the nerf hammer.
Otz is right about the items being used a lot right now because they will be nerfed, rn I'm using all my brand new parts because of the upcoming nerf.
2:47 “I’m just gonna go in the pallet and try to get a hit, no mind games”
He then immediately tries and mind games the nea into thinking he’ll appear on the other side of shack
Right right, no mind games; I’ll just break the pallet
now can we talk about the Sadako nerfs TwT
Is Cherry Blossom really a nerf...or a tool that allows for even more precise triangulation now, since pretty much as you see the KI, you can swing
Which is fair. Spirit cannot even to through walls and obstacles in her power.
Making her blind is just unnecessary and accessibility-problematic (there are a lot of deaf people playing the game, btw)
@@kingol4801her not being able to see survivors is a huge part of the balance of the killer, being able to see survivors would make her super easy and broken
@@kingol4801 So you want to make spirits power the ability to have an insane movement speed buff and invisibility with no downside?
22:30 - New character: Necromancer
Says a lot that I thought the duration was 3 to 4 seconds at it's worst. Pretty excited to try out the double activation as I never tried them before
I feel like cross progression is so slow to come because ive seen people who can cheat on pc to add iri shards, add levels, prestige killers, unlocked killers for free, and even give themselves items/add ons. Imagine someone making a new account with everything 100% unlocked and then using that to play on console with everything for free
EDIT: meant to add that would all be on the lowest possible mmr. And if the person cheating just so happens to be a smurf on top of it all, they would be able to make matches absolutely unbearable for those new players they get matched with
Spirits 2nd best addon combo has always been White Hair Ribbon with Muddy Sports cap. "Charge Speed with Movement Speed".
Just reached iridescent 1 for the first time! Thank you so much Otz ❤, hope you proud of me :)
you know it is fine if they nerf somethink painfull (for me at least), but where is Pyramidhead addon rework ?
That's why a love dejavu to find those gens and mainly avoid 3 gens obviously but it's an awesome perk
As one of the ten spirit mains who doesn’t exclusively run mother daughter ring I’m still really happy about this. It’s a broken unfair addon, and I think we always knew the duration “feature” would be removed eventually. It will hopefully push more people to actually learn spirits power and mind games rather than hold phase to win
survivor meat rider. it’s still strong as hell and dried cherry blossom got a buff since now the hits will be more accurate
It is not unfair in the slightest, but ok.
@@kingol4801 again, spirit main, mother daughter ring is a guaranteed win against anyone that isn’t a full comp team. It is one of, if not the strongest addon in the game and makes the game incredibly boring for the killer
@@AutumnCosplay you don’t speak for everyone. i say it makes the game fun for me since i move at usain bolt speed and it pisses people off. but you keep sucking on that survivor schlong
Otz trying to convince he is not the only reason why spirit addons was nerfed (impossible!)
Sarcasm
Hey otz, I've seen on the forums that with this duration bug fixed, bubba's addons that were bugged are fixed as well, e.g. iri carburator thing (there is an insane montage with double iris). Can you test it?
They did on stream
He did in his stream when the ptb released
@@thedutywarlord264 well most folks from yt didn't see it, so my suggestions still stands
Salt will flow regardless.
everytime otz hits a survivor:
No one: ..
Otz: "Im sorry."
Now I have to rethink my Spirit build... Good video, it really explained the changes well! 👻💨
Bite the bullet should give you great skill check progress if you start in the killer heartbeat and then are still healing when the heartbeat leaves.
"Unbreakable i can take, but NECROMANCER!?" LOL
What otz said about bite the bullet is my only thought whenever I see the perk. Having your aura hid as well as silence idk why it isn’t a thing
Here's what could be done to bite the bullet to counter nurses, while healing aura detection does not work on you. That includes friendly aura detection, however really, that alone could be a perk, but if that alone was a perk then it should be killer's aura detection only, that doesn't work.
Well now we have a reason to use other add-ons on her.I'm sad that Cherry and Ring got nerfed but oh well,cherry still rather solid.
Well, I don't use addons anyway, so this really doesn't change anything for me.
I genuinely don't understand the point of playing an entire like 14 minute game only to DC as you're being carried to the last hook. The altruistic reason might be to avoid a hook based perk being used against your team but like, the killer still removes you from the game which is their objective so what's supposed to be the punishment here? You get them closer to their win condition by like 5 seconds...way to stick it to the killer, Nea.
I don't understand how your seeing the footsteps , because I'm slowing it down to watch closer but can't see anything
My God that dead hard at the pallet made my holler, and then I choked on my own spit at the firecracker.
Furin is the add on I use the most, there is no way I'm not grabbing survivors doing gens.
Otz the type of guy to make a video about add-ons while nick cage is in the game
I actually still had a bugged intro animation on PTB.
It seems like Spirit will just forever have this lol.
So still no nerfs for Blight. Wtf
He doesn't need to be nerfed he's good
@@Laziotand spirit addons were so strong that she NEEDED to be nerfed?
@@Laziotahe meant blight's addons
In recent history, before this nerf was announced, was spirit an issue? Majority of my games have been wesker, knight, huntress. I gave a spirit once a month and the don't use powerful Add ons.
That hook stage scenario was crazy 😂
Otz, for the first game, if u already have territorial, why not hook the first survivor and/or the last gen survivor in the basement? Isn't the basement the best place to hook regardless?
I thought it would be best to hook asap and check gens 🤔
@@notOtzdarva I agree, basement is a huge time investment. Most times, it doesn't pay out well.
Tbh i honestly think these Nerfs now make Wesker the Top of A tier by a Hair strand, him and Sprit are so good but these nerfs for me put Wesker in the top spot of A tier
Now they need to fix the sound direction bugs in phase
Please Otz make a video on the Sadako nerfs. Us Sadako players are completely devastated and need all the help we can get
The hair looks great! Info is amazingly useful as always and fun to watch
Are we getting an all killers addons tierlist soon?
Me: who is this guy???
Him: hello friends this is Otz
The fact that he thinks that bite the bullet should also block nurses calling is proof that this guy is a survivor main. Why would it be bad if one perk counters another? That’s the whole point of perks and not knowing what the other person brought in. It’s a game of rock paper scissors, which is what makes it fun and exciting
Bite The Bullet would be a counter to all aura builds if you got the Buff that you talked about
Yeah pretty dumb. Careless statement.
Not really. Aside from BBQ, Survivors cannot know when the Killer is using an aura reading perk. They would need to be healing when the aura read activates to be hidden. It would be like how Off the Record hides your aura but doesn’t tell you that the Killer is using an aura reading perk.
Otz I have an amazing survivor build for the ptb. The usual power struggle, flip-flop, unbreakable combo is great, but what about adding plot twist to down yourself at a pallet and guarantee the right amount of wiggle progression to pallet stun the killer.
Wow it's almost like everyone else also came up with that same idea
@@ethanpeeples6187 I haven't seen it anywhere else yet, don't blame me for not reading everyone's minds
Ez counter. Just let them bleed to death, or force them to use plot twist recovery and ultimately disable it. Slugging and leave pallet plot twist meta incoming
@@asain3586 yeah that's a good counter, but it's a safe way for the survivor to heal a health state without worrying about the killer
@@Trey_Fowler it's so obvious that you should just know.
Otz having Territorial and not hooking his first down in Basement really bothered me :D
9:11 god that grab was insanse 😳
Only reason why I still play this game cause of how great Otz videos are
You can't "nerf" a tactical nuke lol
“Hello friends this is Otz, currently inside your closet, nice jacket by the way”
Its interesting that Otz says at 5:18 that "these add-ons are better than almost anything the Spirit has" and it is a yellow & brown. How sad is it that the red & blues are so bad?
Blue?
An otz vid on my birthday?? My favorite treat!
21:39 do you think clourophobia should showdown pickups as well ?
It does slow down pick ups, but not ground recovery.
@@Nikkibuh isee
30% speed for mother daughter ring and -25% duration. no scratch mark removal
Random but, Otz' hair looking fire in this video
This doesn't have anything to do with the gameplay, but your hair looks especially amazing this video
Hey Otz! I hope you see this but I've been watching your videos on and off for years and I'm really impressed how dedicated you are to making DBD content! What keeps you so interested? I love watching your vids btw!
Yeah I stocked up on BNPs. Didn't find them fair. Making them this bad? Yeah I'll just use them.
Perfect timing i just bought the aot spirit skin so i wanted to play her a bit more.
Everyone making videos about Nic Cage and his perks, while Otz is talking about the spirit's balance XD.
are the duration bug nerfed for only spirit or does the other kilers get the bug fixed as well?
Now they need to nerf the Blight’s add ons
I like how this Spirit nerf actually buffed me, because I never used any of those addons anyway.
That's not how nerfs work
I know its not what I should be focusing on, but Otz’s hair is looking GOOD!
love the gigachad hair
One otzdarva video a day keeps the big sad away
Why is blossom a nerf, surely it makes it more accurate to when youre on top of them, no?
