    Another content creator by the name of “M1m4” said in her video that instead of completely taking out the Token System, they should change the way the Tokens are earned
    Instead of being in the Killers Terror Radius to gain Tokens, a Survivor must finish a Generator, Unhook Teammate or Heal Teammate to gain back a Missing Token
    And I completely agree with her, it changes the “hiding all game and doing nothing” while also not completely changing how the Perk works

    Distorsion wasn’t that OP against good killers -> good killers have intuition and knowledge of the game which cancels and destroys all perks masking auras and traces.
    You had it, used it with accuracy and still got moried… proof that didn’t help you that much.
    Not to mention that not all killers run aura perks.
    If it was a 4 aura reading perk killer like Huntress, or mirror Myers, or Addon Pig, your Distorsion tokens would melt quickly and get useless as fast.
    So basically, when the match begins you already had 50% chance that your perk got useless because the killer had no reading, or useless because the killer abuses it.
    So not that many people like to loose one perk that does absolutely nothing… I see Distorsion on 1/10 games in solo queue because it is useless - and when used, only one survivor does and this one generally wants to play sneaky the whole game anyway -> thanks to stupid challenges where you have to escape with certain perks and using a specific exit.
    Distorsion is more of an information perk rather than a « hiding perk ».
    And that brought some balancing to the game, the only balancing counter to reading auras.
    It is being nerfed as always because SWF can use it at best and communication among survivors make it so killer aura perks gets destroyed.
    The match begins, your teammate with Disto informs you there’s Lethal pursuer, assuming the killer needs early chases (like Nemesis) or stealthy so he can catch up to you real quick.
    You assume at least a second aura reading perk.
    Killer got two perks destroyed in a second.
    But I’ll tell you this, why do players run distorsion at all ?
    Because there are so many unfair situations where you can hold a chase even without having distorsion when you just « know when » the killer has aura reading.
    You nerf Distorsion, there is 0 counter to aura readings.
    Games will be unfun.
    More DC.
    More people giving up.
    Less people wanting to play survivors.
    GGs to Behavior for making the dumbest decision !
    The only thing that had to be done was to nerf all aura reading system !
    To make distorsion such a useless perk that no one uses it.
    The problem wasn’t that people used Distorsion, the problem was that killers abused wall hacks and forgot how to « look » for survivors around a generator…
    Killers playing aura reading perks, go play walking simulators if you are so passionate about aura reading.
    What’s the point of playing the game if you get out of the way the only reason to play it ?!? Look for survivors.
    There is no « skill issue » on survivor side, when your aura gets read constantly, it’s just pure unfun games that’s all.

    • @sirvantanite1307
      @sirvantanite1307 29 дней назад +3

      Completely correct. Distortion was never a strong perk. It effectively made you weaker in chase, but could be a priceless information perk. Now its basically impossible to use, but at the very least its been buffed in 1 unique scenario against huntress where before it was impossible to even get a stack back. It was a niche perk that sometimes allowed you enjoyable moments to outplay killers because they just basically rely on wallhacks and not actually using their eyes. 9 times out of 10 distortion is just a dead perk slot even pre nerf. But the fact that there are no other aura counter perks mean that people who use it will keep using it. But just being an even bigger burden as they do.

    • @TheWarnvenoda
      @TheWarnvenoda 29 дней назад +1

      @@sirvantanite1307 or worse…
      Distorsion nerfed so that people got involved in chases more… but people using disto were never intended to do any chase so it basically doesn’t change that.
      Except now killers can run full aura and know for sure that there is absolutely no counter…
      And people using it will be even less useful as before 👌
      Next step : nerf lockers - because it’s so op that survivors can hide their auras inside

When distortion hides you; objects shows you and still lets you know for auras and addons with auras

    Ah yes instead of giving us 3 tokens that go away mightily fast with all the aura perks running around and then what a 30 seconds INSIDE the killers terror radius to replenish all 3 now we get two tokens max and they’re not replenished until we get into a chase for 30 seconds instead of just extending the seconds it took to be in the killers terror radius to 90 or 60 so smart of them so freaking smart 🤦‍♂️
    If you’re gonna nerf one of the most viable anti-aura perks from the survivors in countering the massive stockpile that is the killers aura reading perks then you should probably be Nerf-Ing almost every killer aura perk just a thought.

    im someone who plays aura reading sadako, and let me tell u its oppressive af, its unhealthy to have so much aura reading that can be stacked as well go figure just like anything else in the game when u stack it,
    im someone who also had distortion in my build perm just due to the sheer amount of aura reading between all the perks, then the addons, to things like killers getting free aura reading with no where to hide just from kicking a gen.
    idk bad changes make me play the game less and when this change hits i probably wont touch dbd anymore, o7 i wish the rest of you luck tho
    tbh a healthier change would have probably been just to increase the time it takes to recharge the stacks, instead of every 30 make it 40, maybe 50, up to 1 min simple changes like that can bring perks inline

      I agree. Plus they are bringing even more aura reading perks into the collection with this update. I don’t believe killers should be rewarded for losing a survivor in chase with a free aura reading (predator). I do use distortion and I don’t hide all game. I play the game as I did for years. But mind games which make so much of the game will become a thing of the past, which honestly I think is boring. Already planning to uninstall once the update hits. I have over 4k hours btw.

      @@AD88884 yep completely agree as well, like when they tried to buff zanshin, and they had to change it a bit, because if it released that way it would have been completely busted, tbh id love to see them try to add on more types of tracking, ultimate weapon was close but they made it too obnoxious when it was spamable, but it could atleast be countered by calm spirit, they could even add in killer instinct on perks, or even what if they made perks that revealed scratch marks when survivors are walking

      @@Demonsouls1993 do you not know how to read? i do play killer so i know how oppressive it can be, i play aura reading sadako and win 90% of my matches due to the amount of pressure knowing where everyone at at every moment of the game and able to make choices off of that,
