The Unknown 8.3.0 Update!

Look how they massacred my boy

Everything is pretty good, except the add-ons. in particular the Blurry Photo, that one is a terribly unneeded nerf; as for Vanishing Box, the nerf is not completely braindead, but 80% is massive; 20% would have been way more reasonable.

we can still feather power which is a good thing

The movement speed reduction was needed. I thought The Unknown was always just a bit too over-tuned and had too much pressure compared to other killers. They need to dial back a lot of these newer release killers to be more in-line with ones released 2+ years ago. New killers seem to be a jack-of-all-trades whereas older killers would excel at one or two things but lack in others. This system was more balanced.

LET'S GO BHVR KEEP RUINING EVERYONE'S FUN

Now I dont even know who I have infected

The first extra UI element is unnecessary, but the rest seems fine

Welp, there goes my favorite killer. Hopefully it won't feel too clunky to play.

The unknown was fun to play as and against, minus the proxy camping. This update to them was seriously unnecessary and bogus.

The next time bEHAVIOR wants to nerf my favorite killers, pick Pig!

we will be seeing even less unknown players 🙁 i like going against unknown but i never get in games with it

The slow feels so clunky

Unknown 1 of the most balanced snd fun killer in the Game no1 was complaining about and the Devs nerfed him for no reason this Devs are a Joke

BHVR even said in the Dev Update they was really happy whit Unknown and that he was very loved by the Community and they still nerfed him why changing a Killer when the Community is happy whit it ? 🤷🏻‍♀️ The Devs cleary dont play there Game

Im a Dredge, Singularity, Unknown Main and it makes me so sad they ruined Unknown i hope most of the changes dont go live 😔

These killers all needed the nerfz they are getting in this patch, so niceties see they are stopping the non stop buffs to killers since January 2024.

Way too many homophobic pedos won't leave me alone over my comment over a video game.... sad these pedos are allowed on yt comments and dbd too.

I dont understand BVHR for nerfing Killers that are fair and balanced. Unknown was fine, but having a better HUD for his hallucinations was needed, it was so jarring at times when your next hallucination was about to spawn.

This killer is like B or C tier why they nerf him 😭

W vid, L changes.

Wow; these changes are shit

Idk why they put 3 different mini icons for Unknown’s ability, you could just use the main one for the UVX, a mini one for the teleport time and then a second mini one for the hallucination respawn if you really need it. Just feels way too cluttered in the corner.

I also don’t know why they needed Vanishing box so harshly, it’s obvious why people rely on these sorts of add-ons because there’s clearly a sort of deficiency in a certain area of a killer’s kit. People ran Marvin’s blood on Nemesis because it took ages for him to level up, we ran boat key on dredge because his teleport was super slow, and we run vanishing box on Unknown because it’s difficult to consistently hit shots on survivors and actually gain value from the weakened. They should be looking at the root causes rather than just nerfing a good add-on.

I genuinely don’t understand these changes unless it’s on guy on the dev team who sucks at the game and nerfs whoever seems “too op”

BEHAVIOR:
Making stupid and unnecessary changes no one asked for for years 😀👍

You people in the comments forget this is BHVR, this company doesn't care if they ruin your favorite killers, no fun allowed losers.
Get BHVR'd, I'm sure you'll all forget about this and just buy another 10 dollar skin.

literally who asked for this 😭

why nerf wtf? Only top mmr player was good with him.

When do these changes go live?

I will only accept these changes if it includes a crawling mode in future (while crawling, you move slightly slower, you also become harder to see, and make it so survivors who are looking at you recover from Weakened 50% slower)

His recovery when he teleports to a clone in no way has the % of Basekit announced by BHVR concerning the blurry photo (the recovery is 1.7 on live, 0.85 sec with the add-on, now on the PTB it is 1.4 sec in basekit, and 1.19 sec with the add-on. do you see the problem here?) and they nerfed Blurred Photo in return.
I would like to know where BHVR's notes regarding "Edging" used to deceive survivors come from (and besides, I don't see why this is a problem, it's a mindgame technique, why nerf it ?), because honestly, I think that many of us mainly use this manipulation to control our clones in order to deploy them in strategic locations.


The HUD is too clunky, and adds even more to the clunky appearance of these modifications on the killer. What is the point of having an icon that gives me the number of clones present on the map, when we can directly see them because they have a white aura?

All this killer needed to have was half the effect of Blurry Picture, and for this add-on to retain 25% of its original effect. He needed a soft QoL buff on his M2, and adjustments to MAJORITY of his add-ons which are so miserable that it's almost impossible to create synergy between them. It is not for nothing that the two addons Vanishing box and Blurry picture were the most appreciated, because there was a real synergy and a very good combo.

It's just a Big L for me, BHVR semi-destroyed a killer that I really like. It's like they nerfed the Wraith's movement speed, and increased the time it takes for it to respawn, or increased the time it takes for the artist to create ravens, reduce their throwing speed, and increasing the recovery cd.

i don't play him but on survivor side he felt very balanced before, feels kinda unnecessary

BOOOOOOO!!!!! BHVR! BOOOOOOO!!!!!!

comment section got marbles for brains and i’m so serious oh no unknown can’t m2 fake and have a better ui the killer is gutted like seriously he got some add ons basekit and doesn’t have the really annoying gen add on which gave unknown free pressure a win because they could’ve actually nerfed this killer but he’s still in a incredibly good state

As an Unknown Main I felt Vanishing Box had minimal impact outside of Low MMR games. This feels like yet another useless nerf made because of comp-players bitching.

They nerf fair and balanced killers but buff op killers like huntress, doctor and nurse

They nerf the only 2 usable addons 💀

Honestly these changes are fine. A little base kit buff to a few things but now you’ll have to consume more time to place your hallucinations in ideal spots than before but it’s not a big deal, you normally only do that 2-4 times per game so it’s not a huge nerf. He’ll still be an A tier killer.

Love to see killers cry when its time they nerf a few of them 🥺

awe, i liked spitting on survivors :(

they nerfed a common fuckin addon....let that sink in

I hope his nerfs dont go live. Like everyone says, he was the most balanced killer.

god who asked for any of this. i was hoping for qol buffs not clunky changes and nerfs

DStrike this is a nerf, not update

Everyone is complaining and nobody is praising the damn new power icons.

Me getting happy for Unknown changes and then see this bs... why bahevour

No one asked for this, why are they doing this? I play Unknown a lot and out of all killers i have the most fair and untoxic matches. It seems like he was perfectly balanced before...

Can’t do the edging tech anymore :(

I love the new Hud but everything else is meh. I honestly wish they would increase time to dispel hallucination cause they dissapear FAST

Stop changing things, start fixing things. Worst ptb ever.

I mean unknown was a strong killer so these nerfs are kinda needed, imo it just should’ve been 20% faster tp recovery basekit, and vanishing box should decrease your hallucination spawning speed by 50% not 80%

Tough day for us (rare) Unknown mains...

as an unknown main, I really hope they will revert these changes. big L from bhvr, as usual
