As it stands, he will be one of the weakest Killers in the game. Hopefully Behaviour will think over the Blight’s power more before we get the final version. He is strong and players love that about him. After all Pyramid Head was the first Killer in a long time that could counterplay windows and pallet loops with just his power. Perhaps it’s because Behaviour did such a good job on the latest Killer, Pyramid Head, that there were high hopes for the Blight. Many Dead by Daylight players are unhappy that they waited eagerly for the Blight, just for this Killer to be so weak and basic. You would think he would have more concoctions at his disposal than the serum which allows him to dash forwards. Why did Behaviour create a Killer with a dash ability who cannot deal damage on their first dash? Not only that, but why is dashing the Blight’s only ability? He was an alchemist before turning into this monster called the Blight. You have to be right on top of a Survivor to have any chance at landing a hit. Not only that, but it is difficult to aim your attack during a Rush. The only way the Blight ever manages to hit anyone with his Rush is when they run in a straight line, or are stuck in hallways. He can try using Rush charges to get around loops, but from what I have seen this never works. There is absolutely nothing he can do at windows or pallet loops. I played a few games with the Blight as well as some games against him. The Pig has amazing control over her dash, and can use it to mindgame Survivors at pallet loops or windows. The Legion can use their dash to vault windows or pallets and apply Deep Wound to Survivors. The Demogorgon can use its dash to break pallets and deal damage by closing distance quickly. Leatherface, Billy, and Oni can use their dash to down Survivors instantly from the healthy state. However, these Killers can actually do things with their dash to give them an advantage. They are Leatherface, Hillbilly, Demogorgon, Pig, Oni, and Legion. If we look at all the Killers in the game, there are a total of 6 other Killers that have dash mechanics in their powers. The Blight’s power is so incredibly basic, it does not seem like the kind of Killer Behaviour should be making since Dead by Daylight has been out for over 4 years. No other Killer power forces you to run into objects in order to use it. This makes the power clunky to use and frustrating when trying to hit Survivors. Unlike the Demogorgon and Pig, the dash cannot do any damage unless the Blight bounces off a wall first. Since each activation consumes a charge, the ability lets him chain this dash up to 4 times.Īs you can see, this power is essentially just a dash and nothing more. If he runs into a wall or object he can activate the ability again (consuming another charge), which will allow him to dash forward again, and attack during his dash. The Blight has 5 Rush charges, and can use them to dash forward. So far the answer is a disappointing “no”, as the Blight’s power is one of the worst Killer powers we have ever seen.
