The Nurse Changes

https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6030815\/uploads\/138\/RNKKLPI0RMI1.png<\/a><\/p>

For the past few months, we have been reviewing the Nurse and her add-ons. We are pleased to say that these changes will be available in the upcoming mid-chapter update, and we would like to take a moment to share some insight into thought process behind them. <\/p>

There were several things we wanted to address when revisiting the Nurse. First, all killers should have 4 common, 5 uncommon, 5 rare, 4 very rare and 2 ultra rare add-ons- the Nurse previously did not meet this condition as she was created before this standard was put in place. Many of her add-ons also had downsides or effects that hindered players' muscle memory, causing them to be very rarely used. Others had unintended side effects that made them much stronger than intended (notably the range add-ons which in turn granted reappearance speed, sometimes referred to as "omega blink"). We wanted to bring these add-ons up to our recent standards and introduce new and fun effects for players to experiment with. <\/p>

In the process, we’ve also made a few adjustments made to her base power. Previously, the Nurse could double blink, go through fatigue, then immediately double blink again. This did not leave the Survivors with much of an opportunity to break line of sight. A recharge mechanic for blink charges has been added to limit how quickly she can perform multiple blinks. Rather than immediately receiving all her blink charges following fatigue, she will instead regain charges one at a time. Each charge takes three seconds starting from the beginning of her fatigue<\/em>. This time can be reduced through add-ons. <\/p>

The timing of the visual effects for the blink reappearance have been adjusted so that the Nurse becomes visible just before the end of the blink. This allows players to react appropriately and avoid situations where they are hit or blocked by the collision of the Nurse before they can see her. <\/p>

We have removed the “blink accuracy” stat. Blink accuracy stat was functional, but its values were so small that its effect was hard to notice. Blink accuracy would place you randomly around the position you blinked to. <\/p>

New Add-ons <\/h2>

Every single Nurse add-on has been altered in some way. The new effects of the add-ons are the following: <\/p>

The Withering Blight Event

https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6030815\/uploads\/893\/0YOV5QDZREJ0.png<\/a><\/p>

We are happy to celebrate the most horrific time of the year, where the stench of rotting Pustula Plants fills the air across the Entity’s realm. Soon, the Withering Blight event will be upon us, and we don’t want you to go unprepared. <\/p>

Classic Tricks <\/h2>

In addition to spooky campfire decorations, some staples of past Halloween events have returned, including: <\/p>

Scary Stories <\/h2>

What’s a Halloween event without a spooky tale? Complete specially marked nodes in the first Tome to unlock new lore continuing from last year’s Hallowed Blight event. Collect all Memory Entries to unlock a special animatic, revealing the next steps in the story. As with any other lore in The Archives, you will be able to collect and complete the story any time, even after The Rift closes. <\/p>

The Withering Blight event runs from October 22nd - November 1st<\/strong>. Act fast, the Pustula Plants only appear once a year and when they’re gone, they’re gone. <\/p>

UPDATE<\/strong><\/p>

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Withering Blight event is postponed until the release of the mid-chapter 3.3.0. We're working on getting the update ready as soon as possible and will keep you posted. Don't worry, the length of the event will remain the same!<\/p>

 <\/p>

See you in the fog, <\/p>
