A bit of clarification on Wesker's power. The second dash is actually longer than the first one and not shorter, but it's pretty difficult to see in rpd. Survivors are fully infected when you see a red circle around them in the hud, in that case even if they are healty you can directly grab them with your dash. You grab survivors even if they are not fully infected, but they need to be injured to do that. The "virulent bound extension" (the one mentioned in the chalice add-on description) is the window where wesker will continue to go further with his dash (after hitting a survivor with it) trying to collide with a wall, if that is not the case, the survivor will be thrown away, getting injured if hitting something but not getting infected. Hope this helps!
Very helpful, I would have never known that his second dash was longer or what they meant by "bound extension" or that survivors don't get infected from a toss, good stuff gamer ty.
The second charge actually goes much farther than the first, it’s just bugged on ramps at the moment which just so happened to be where otz checked the distance both times.
I honestly find it super cool that he’s the first killer to have a 40 meter terror radius! It might be a hindrance in most cases but can pair well with terror radius perks
25:18 anybody notice how his power is effected by vault speed? you could pair it with bamboozle, fire up and his perk Superior anatomy for some INSANE vault speeds!
He'll probably figure this out on his own but the second Bound is actually longer than the first, so like the opposite of Nurse. You bumped into something when you tested without realising
I also find it quite frustrating at times, it often feels like you'll bump into literally any prop or wall that is not the floor if you touch even so much as a pixel of them and cancel the dash.
@@Letholldus definitely seems like PTB Blight: super decet power that is limited by really bad coding of the collision. Hopefully they can fix the hitboxes up a bit and all will be well!
I feel that Wesker is absolutely the best killer with an infection mechanic. With Plague it's an inconvenience, with Nemesis it makes him annoying, but Wesker here makes it an active threat. When he infects you, you best start running to the spray disinfectants or he's going to easily grab you regardless of your health state. It's like a weaker Tombstone Myers.
For a few who wanna know real quick. Wesker currently is immune to flashlight saves after grabbing someone. After vaulting with your power your unable to hit a surv with the 2nd hit (might be a bug.) He does indeed wesk all over chris after 7 minutes.
Otz, note that the red circle means that they are actually fully infected, and so if they are slammed into a wall while Wesker is holding them, they will be instantly downed even if healthy. You also grab injured survivors that you slam into walls as well, which is what you were actually doing.
If they are fully infected, they will be instantly picked up regardless if they hit a wall or not. So when you see a guy fully red, you can just pick them up without worrying if there's a wall.
The dash his bound provided into a window/over a pallet would be HUGE especially with his +40% speed perk. If a surv fast vaults he can close that gap immediately and even without the 40% perk he could be right behind them again because if you are just outside hitting range you can prep a vault to be right on their heels. Also skips over god pallets/windows
His dash is really fun, if you can aim it right without colliding with terrain, you can dash around corners to chase survivors down. Dash forward a short distance, flick to a 90 degree turn and jump double the distance. The only catch to be aware of: When you dash and hit a survivor, if they're on a ledge you'll push them off and you get locked in an animation for ashort duration and stay on the upper ledge.
I already know that Wesker is gonna be my next main killer. The biggest thing that consumes my time are those loops where if the survivor is good enough you don't get much gain on them. With that dash you can make up that distance and cut your time down by 3/4 the normal amount. Could probably work for shack pallet too. If they throw it you can not only break it but get right back on their heels where they could otherwise have gotten a good enough lead to make you pursue another target.
Funny how he never realized the true range of the second charge and he never actually used his power on a fully infected survivor. Smashing an injured survivor on a wall will always grab them, grabbing a fully infected (red thing around the character) Will grab them regardless of their health state once smashed to the wall, unless they have off the record . Then it wip and the survivor goes directly in to deep wound.
@@jackytris2874 Her indicator wasn't red. Otz wasn't realizing that people need a red border on their portrait to actually be fully infected. And then he started purposely avoiding the people who had red borders for some reason.
Did you know that both sides/maps are randomly generated as well? For example, on the West side you sometimes have access to the burning helicopter area and sometimes you don't. Or maybe there are more holes in the walls or floors, which causes rooms to have multiple entrances. It's pretty cool have they've done that!
Reactive healing heals 35% of the “missing progress”, which makes it absolutely useless, not only it heals you much less when having high progress, but als makes it that you’ll never get fully healed by this perk
Exactly my thought. It is situational at best. That being said, it is fair, as it would otherwise pick up downed survivors upon activation (last 5% count as healing, not recovering).
Here my stoned ass was thinking you could get a free heal off your unhook with Resurgence giving you a free 50 and then a couple teammates get slapped for the rest
Perks like this should be a flat 10 progress + 25%, same for pop (though with lower numbers than that). Game design wise it's the better way to balance percentage based effects. Effective in the intended purpose (Aka empty heal bar) But not useless when your heal bar is already up high.
It's better that way. If it's a flat progress, it would mean that u could take bodyblocks 24/7(with 4 man swf) without able to get downed and u don't have to heal.
I love how these newer killers are getting more and more brutal and gross moris. Like this is the theme this game held at the start and now its really digging into the roots of horror
Reassurances cooldown starts instantly when you give the survivor the 30 seconds so the actual downtime is just 10 seconds. You can in theory use this perk 5 times per hook phase. If multiple instances can overlap you can make a person on the hook literally immortal if the killer doesn't follow the Reassurers.
The best part of Reassurance is that you can use it from ABOVE basement, so if someone is camping basement you can literally just stand in shack and stop the person from losing progress
I love that this is like Wesker's fantasy version of himself where he could handle the Oroboros unlike actual RE5 where he went feral and then fell into a volcano
Now, he could always handle the Oroburos. He did not even go feral. Even taken over by Oroburos was still talking and using strategy like splitting up Sheva and Chris to make them easier targets. He took a huge hit of Oroburos when he put his arm in the storage tank. He was still in control but bonded to Oroburos for more power. The lore indicates this Wesker only had slight exposure to Oroburos when the BSAA invaded the hanger containing the Oroburos early.
This may be a little early to call, but I'm going to main Wesker immediately, his power and everything else about him is so goddamn cool that I can't not main him
Agreed, if you play and main demo then I can see him being in the same spectrum in terms of chase potential. All your trading out between demo and wesker is the teleport and First aid spray slowdown respectively
According to what i've found, the first bound goes 14m/s for .5 seconds and the second bound lasts for 1 full second. I think you were just hitting things with your second bound. Survivors are THROWN when you don't slam them into a wall... the EXTENSION refers to that distance you move AFTER you grab someone. Like when you grabbed them then moved faster into a wall to slam them. Also infected survivors are ALWAYS hindered, it just increases in strength when you reach MAX INFECTION. They are 5% hindered just by being infected, they are 8% hindered at max infection.
@@DarknessDestroyer864 I just wished they'd do something with birkin. I was thinking he could mutate as the game goes on. Maybe addons could give him different forms....Couldn't have anything past g3 though. Can't have a giant dog or a blob as a killer, wouldn't work though. Wanna bonk people with a pipe, Birkin SUCKS in resistance.
@@CaptainDoomsday he did get to be in one of the rail shooter ones. Either the Darkside or umbrella chronicles, had a prequel story of him and Leon together.
I’m just happy they started making more unique animations for killers, it adds so much to the game. I think pinhead was one of the first? Although blight uses his cane
i'd say hes actually fairly stronger. only 2 hits to fully infect, add ons are pretty good, he has good perk synergy, and you can actively move survivors away from tiles if you can grab them at the right angle effectively dead zoning them on some maps like dead dawg saloon. hes weaker in a way hes bugged and his collisions dont seem to match up.
cool to see another killer able to vault a pallet, and wesker is just such a dope killer idea for an RE chapter. i love this killer already, especially his voice lines and animations. I already know shack is going to be played different around wesker
Imagine having an ability to choose the direction in which you want to throw a survivor Seeing wesker yeeting your friend from a shack would be hilarious
First thought I’d that if Wesker can consistently get those instant pickups with his power, Starstruck and Agitation would be insane combo on him, he can chase down survivors before they have a chance to run from his Starstruck.
Probably one of the most cinematic moris yet. Felt like a scene from a movie more than an animation in a game. Animation team is getting really good at their job
Did not even notice the fact he just slaps on another pair of glasses after getting the first pair punched off in the mori, his coat is entirely lined with spare sunglasses. Hail to the best killer
@@kyzer17 You wouldn’t be saying that under the circumstances where the plot of the resident evil games happens in real life and Albert The Weskinator Wesker lifts you off the ground by your neck and takes off his glasses like an absolute bad ass and then kills your or quips or something.
Hey otz, just wanna say thanks for the first reaction you did this time, its a small thing but its much more enjoyable for those who dont have the time to watch the streams!
@@richardcarter8751 Oh, cool. That’s weird though. I would think they would make both the same length because of those two brown addons that increase and decrease the distance of them.
its just really that inclines like stairs are horrible with movement abilities in most games. i think they didnt make them actual stairs but rather slopes which just slows you down when you use such a dash into it. a nice example is also in for example elden ring some enemies cannot move up certain slopes and stairs because of their movement. id say blame unreal engine and map design choices in the end
I’m disappointed that he uses the Ouroboros instead of just doing his iconic charge, I also don’t understand the knife. I like that it has the RE4 & 5 swing animation but Wesker is more known for his insane hand to hand fighting. Still looks fun to play even if he acts more like Jack Krauser (possible legendary skin?)
Yeah, my one gripe is the heavy Ouroboros focus instead of his hand-thrusts. The mori also didn't have his sunglasses toss. I wouldn't mind if the tentacles were just his M1 vs. a palm-thrust out of his charge, but they really went nuts on those gross worms he couldn't even fully control.
that window perk works with his power which is nuts, the mori is crazy, he's fully voiced and has unique voice lines with Chris. They did really well with him! The ouroboros tentacles are the wrong color though, they should be dark red/fleshy not black. Other than that I'm pumped! Ada and Rebecca look great!
Otz: "Wow I just heard thunder outside which was really perfect timing." Me halfway across the world also hearing thunder: "Hmm... toooo perfect timing..."
"They took some of my favorite parts of some killers and put em together. A+". In other words, they took the only abilities of single killers and put them together to create an OP killer with MULTIPLE OP abilities, and his cooldown is gone now. So that is why you are maining him no other reason. A+ for no skill killer. L.
That seems extremly powerfull (Demogorgon and nemesis look weaker than that guy), hope he wont do to them what Dredge did to Sadako Also wish Doc had 40m terror radius, half of his power is based on it
@@prohikikomo Sadako can "feel" more powerful but Dredge has great antiloop and has more room for mistakes unlike Sadako who barely has any antiloop(unless its short loops where she can invisible lunge) and cant make many mistakes. If you're not talking from a meta perspective then yes sadako-chan is cuter and can be headpatted
The only reason why nemesis looks weak compared to wesker is his power doesn’t take 3 hits to down and I’m glad they didn’t give wesker that treatment thank god it would be awful otherwise.
I think Nemesis will still have a better pallet game. Injuring over one or just destroying a pallet is better than vaulting it imo. Still probably gonna main Wesker tho, lol.
The face animations are looking stunning the killer is really great i guess some of the perks could get a buff here and there but all in one this Chapter looks amazing
For a character that is known for hand-to-hand combat, I am very confused at the choice of giving Wesker a knife. He also has a handgun named after him but I can't think of a single time Wesker is seen with a knife. I'd understand if it were Krauser. Still looks fun, though.
About the knife, I think it's because, despite the fact that he uses only punches and kicks and even being both strong, I'm not sure if that would be enough to make survivors bleed already just by one strike. A knife would make a bit more sense. Nemesis fits a little more with that since he's a lot stronger. All STARS had their own knives if I'm not wrong so still works someway.
@@sawney-21 Probably, since most are just regular people. I'm still a little confused by the knife. Maybe in their heads would make more "sense", I don't know.
@@darkishpredator I'm guessing that would be the case. A knife makes a bit more sense in the bleeding department. A punch would break bones but they wouldn't really bleed unless they were hit with a killing blow. A cut makes a bit more sense just in the design aspect. Everything else is kinda just left out lol
surprised he didnt say anything about the chase music. One of the best chase themes in the game (half of the reason i play him to this day is just to listen to this in a chase)
i'd disagee as if you just throw someone they don't get injured. although maybe that could occasionally be fine? maybe he'd be best on open maps with the add ons that increase your toss range/how far you go with the survivor.
A couple of comments: First dash is actually shorter; you just clipped an obstacle on the second one, and never noticed before or afterwards that the second dash is actually longer (first is like 8m, second is like 12) The red ring means fully infected, which means hindered and can be picked up no matter what when dashed into, even when healthy, and without needing to hit a wall Bashing an injured Survivor into a wall after dashing into them will pick them up instantly regardless of infection progress (you did this several times and mistook it for the fully infected pick up, and even missed the times you picked up people that weren't infected at all) It also specifies in the power just before the Infection header that the "obstacles" it says you can vault are just pallets and windows; no low walls or anything like that And that's about it ^-^ Just wanted to clear up some of the misunderstandings and get some information straight EDIT: Virulent Bound extension is the distance you charge holding the Survivor you hit before either slamming them against a wall or throwing them (I'm 99% certain of this)
these videos are so absurdly entertaining to watch after quitting dbd, like i don't follow dbd news apart from new killers so this is really entertaining to catch
It would be cool if when you grab someone with his power facing a ledge theres a small falling animation like smashing them into the ground instead of just dropping them
I think low profile should do this instead After crouching for 3 seconds Low Profile activates for 15 seconds. When low profile is activated, your footsteps make no sound and you don't effect grass, bushes, corn, etc while moving throught them. Low profile has a cool down of 60/45/30 seconds. in my opinion, could be a pretty cool stealth perk if reworked.
I feel like Hyperfocus would go really well with Stake Out (easy great SCs), Prove Thyself and Fast Track (high risk high reward). Put a Brand New Part/Wirespool on with Commodius and you've probably got the most toxic gen rush build ever devised. I'm kinda curious on how that would effect a generator, and if these perks would actually have good synergy or not. Could be good on paper and horrible practically.
Eh, I kinda understand what you mean, but it makes sense for Nemesis to have the whip. It probably doesn’t help though that half his power is locked behind Zombies rather than his actual power
@@zachtemoro2116 It just seemed kinda backwards. Wesker is more of an intelligent manipulator from behind the scenes (until RE5) whereas Nemesis is a powerhouse monster hellbent on destruction. He can have the tentacle, but the aggressive throw seems less like Wesker and the zombies would suit him more. Still love both killers but just seemed backwards.
@@xKazeNoKishi Agreed, would make more sense to have Wesker utilize a horde of zombies to do the work then Nemmy who should be a force to reckon with. Either way i hope BHVR does something about zombies cause more often than not they are useless.
For visual clarity. Namesis’s hand is BIG. Otherwise, we would have the good old “Freddy’s lunge” situation (small weapon model leads to loss of visual clarity from survivor’s perspective).
if your on the dying state when the last gen finishes with that perk that makes everyone broke does adrenaline heal you because I’m pretty sure even with broken you can be healed out of the dying state
Came here to understand the Chalice (Gold) add on just to find out Otz also didn't get at first. These descriptions are not very clear, I know there's a buff at something but don't know what. Thanks for the info!
8:00 That is strong enough, even with the gen "nerf" of 10 seconds making it 90 that 6% bonus over 35 seconds will do more then expected. Especially with more people with this buff. Also stacking it with other speed boost perks like overzelous and prove thyself. Put that with a tool box and you'll be getting really fast gen speeds. Also if you end your dash prior to slamming them into an object you will throw them, if they hit an object after the throw they are injured if they don't nothing happens
Nah. It is only 6% for 35 seconds, doesnt matter how long the gens take from 0 to 100%. So actually it only gives you 6% boost of 35 seconds (around 2 seconds time saved). But only IF you jump on a gen right away and IF the gen takes more than 35 seconds to complete. I really like the concept of the perk, but it certainly needs to be buffed. Like, make it a whole minute and only go down in timer when the survivor does one of the speed up actions, so you definitely get your value.
@@RayneHyuga sounds alright to me, y. but still: the amount of time needs to be buffed as well. how often do you get injured in a match and healed up again with the perk and then be able to make use of the time... its just too many "ifs" for too small of an effect.
Better than new should be really fun for solo que. Pair it with empathic connection and prove thyself whilst working on a gen and teammates can come to you for healing and help you complete the generator extra fast.
great vid otz i think the lab photo add on should be base kit and be changed to something like three bounds for 20% longer to charge up or less distance
I am really really really confused about the "grab fully infected survivors automatically" part of his power because Otz has been smashing not fully infected people into walls and grabbing them automatically if they were already injured (which makes sense) but at the end of the video he grabbed a fully infected survivor and still threw them instead of grabbing them.
But if he does slam them he still picks them up even if they're not fully infected. Unless maybe it only serves as a pseudo-instadown for fully infected non-injured people.
Ok. Here is how it goes. If you land your power on a survivor, you push them away. Survivor hitting a wall makes them take damage. Exceptions: If survivor is INJURED and you push them AND slam them into a wall, he will pick them up right away. If a survivor is INFECTED and you land your power pounce on then (regardless of the wall), they will go on your shoulder.

His dash is really fun, if you can aim it right without colliding with terrain, you can dash around corners to chase survivors down.
Dash forward a short distance, flick to a 90 degree turn and jump double the distance.
The only catch to be aware of: When you dash and hit a survivor, if they're on a ledge you'll push them off and you get locked in an animation for ashort duration and stay on the upper ledge.

With that dash you can make up that distance and cut your time down by 3/4 the normal amount. Could probably work for shack pallet too. If they throw it you can not only break it but get right back on their heels where they could otherwise have gotten a good enough lead to make you pursue another target.

Perks like this should be a flat 10 progress + 25%, same for pop (though with lower numbers than that). Game design wise it's the better way to balance percentage based effects. Effective in the intended purpose (Aka empty heal bar) But not useless when your heal bar is already up high.
It's better that way. If it's a flat progress, it would mean that u could take bodyblocks 24/7(with 4 man swf) without able to get downed and u don't have to heal.
Make it flat 35% or else useless
Wesker having personalized mori lines for Chris is pretty hecking cool
I'm so glad I got to witness this live on Otz's twitch, it felt so surreal seeing him just make and post the video live for the first time!
@ImZert dip dip dip dip dip
His power and perks look great. Can’t wait to play him soon
Cringe pfp
@@criminalscum7272 imagine crying over a pfp
@ImZert mm.p.m.
@ImZert mm.p.m. l
Wait until you have to play him in an open map, especially the corn maps. Basically just an m1 killer on those
I love how these newer killers are getting more and more brutal and gross moris. Like this is the theme this game held at the start and now its really digging into the roots of horror
This really makes me wish that more killers and survivors had voice lines.
I'm so happy they have the Seven minutes line in there. I love Wesker and I was so hopeful when I heard he was voiced that it'd be in there.
Wesker's in luck though: Going against any competent SWF means there's no way the match lasts 7 minutes. Maybe 5... if no BNPs are involved.
Reassurances cooldown starts instantly when you give the survivor the 30 seconds so the actual downtime is just 10 seconds. You can in theory use this perk 5 times per hook phase. If multiple instances can overlap you can make a person on the hook literally immortal if the killer doesn't follow the Reassurers.
Good camping should be punished.
can't wait for JRM to make a reassurance value video and do exactly that if they don't change it lmfao
Shhhhh don’t say this lol. Now they are going to fix it lol 😉
if you have two you can pause the CD forever lmao
No more face camp
you literally just get close and trigger the perks then run away to do gen ,if there’s two this will last forever lol
I hope when the chapter goes live, all matches would be Leon, Chris, Ada and Bekky against Wesker.
Леон, Крис, Ада, Ребекка и инсидиус бубба в подвале*
i cant afford any of those characters, so i'll be the odd jake.
You mean jill Chris claire and Rebecca... 😑
It will be leon, Chris, Ada, Beckky, and Wesker against that fucking guy playing clown
@@Sevaiah any would work really
The best part of Reassurance is that you can use it from ABOVE basement, so if someone is camping basement you can literally just stand in shack and stop the person from losing progress
I like how during the mori, Wesker lets them get a final punch on him before killing them.
its a reference to resident evil code veronica when chris slaps wesker during their reunion
I love that this is like Wesker's fantasy version of himself where he could handle the Oroboros unlike actual RE5 where he went feral and then fell into a volcano
He didn't go feral due to the virus. He was always insane
Now, he could always handle the Oroburos. He did not even go feral. Even taken over by Oroburos was still talking and using strategy like splitting up Sheva and Chris to make them easier targets. He took a huge hit of Oroburos when he put his arm in the storage tank. He was still in control but bonded to Oroburos for more power. The lore indicates this Wesker only had slight exposure to Oroburos when the BSAA invaded the hanger containing the Oroburos early.
@@MunkyDrag0n your name seems familiar
Yeah, uh... Scott Jones replay RE5 and actually finish it this time. You don't know what you are talking about.
The entity keeps that in check in the fog
Watching the good Otz content at a crisp 360p
360p squad!
Thought that was just me, Lmao
This may be a little early to call, but I'm going to main Wesker immediately, his power and everything else about him is so goddamn cool that I can't not main him
Agreed
Agreed, if you play and main demo then I can see him being in the same spectrum in terms of chase potential. All your trading out between demo and wesker is the teleport and First aid spray slowdown respectively
As someone who’s played him. He’s not the best killer. But Oml is he fun
me as well, he's so awesome
Same instantly thought the same thing
I love that wesker keeps another pair of glasses on him specifically for a scenario of someone punching his face.
I do the same, it’s never happened but not worth the risk going the rest of the day without sunglasses 😑😂
with the possibility of all 4 survivors, this means he AT LEAST has 4 spare glasses
@@velvetdraws3452he can also lose his glasses at pallets when stuned sometimes so count every pallets on the game map too
Entity hands it back after fixing it
According to what i've found, the first bound goes 14m/s for .5 seconds and the second bound lasts for 1 full second. I think you were just hitting things with your second bound. Survivors are THROWN when you don't slam them into a wall... the EXTENSION refers to that distance you move AFTER you grab someone. Like when you grabbed them then moved faster into a wall to slam them. Also infected survivors are ALWAYS hindered, it just increases in strength when you reach MAX INFECTION. They are 5% hindered just by being infected, they are 8% hindered at max infection.
wow. those hindered numbers are insane. everyone who ever used pwyf or plays a 110 killer knows how much of a difference 5% make
Love Wesker's running animation. It has that "Git yo @$$ over here" vibe. His locker grab too, hilarious
The Resident Evil partnership is going wild. Can't wait to see more, maybe Krauser or Garrador
Maybe even The Big Cheese 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@DarknessDestroyer864 I just wished they'd do something with birkin. I was thinking he could mutate as the game goes on. Maybe addons could give him different forms....Couldn't have anything past g3 though. Can't have a giant dog or a blob as a killer, wouldn't work though. Wanna bonk people with a pipe, Birkin SUCKS in resistance.
Krauser is so slept on. I still can't believe he was one-and-done when he's such a great character.
@@CaptainDoomsday Some leaks say that he’s cut from the remake. I hope that isn’t true
@@CaptainDoomsday he did get to be in one of the rail shooter ones.
Either the Darkside or umbrella chronicles, had a prequel story of him and Leon together.
That’s the best locker grab animation anyways he’s seems pretty balanced with his power
I’m just happy they started making more unique animations for killers, it adds so much to the game. I think pinhead was one of the first? Although blight uses his cane
@@chriscorvid50 also ghostface does his little found you jump when he opens the locker I think that was the first unique one I’m not sure though
i'd say hes actually fairly stronger. only 2 hits to fully infect, add ons are pretty good, he has good perk synergy, and you can actively move survivors away from tiles if you can grab them at the right angle effectively dead zoning them on some maps like dead dawg saloon. hes weaker in a way hes bugged and his collisions dont seem to match up.
Love that when he mori's Chris he has a special dialog 😁
WE NEED MORE KILLERS WITH AWESOME VOICELINES LIKE THIS!
I wish when Chris stunned wesker, Wesker said "Stahp it :("
cool to see another killer able to vault a pallet, and wesker is just such a dope killer idea for an RE chapter. i love this killer already, especially his voice lines and animations. I already know shack is going to be played different around wesker
It'd be insane to see Superior Anatomy, Fire Up and Bamboozle on somebody like Wraith
Tier 3 Myers, Bamboozle, Fire Up, Superior Anatomy
With both Shadow Dance addons
But it wont work bc your not in a chase while cloaked, no?
@@FivePointFive5 this is the build i immediately thought of
@@domonkosrevay9423 It doesn't depend on chase, only distance
Imagine having an ability to choose the direction in which you want to throw a survivor
Seeing wesker yeeting your friend from a shack would be hilarious
First thought I’d that if Wesker can consistently get those instant pickups with his power, Starstruck and Agitation would be insane combo on him, he can chase down survivors before they have a chance to run from his Starstruck.
Throw an iron grasp and lightborn to make it more disgusting maybe mad grit as well
Probably one of the most cinematic moris yet. Felt like a scene from a movie more than an animation in a game. Animation team is getting really good at their job
But it still clips into scenery.
I morbed when Wesker:
1. Did locker sass
2. Took out his second pair of glasses
3. Yeeted survivors across the map
4. "7 minutes"
Did not even notice the fact he just slaps on another pair of glasses after getting the first pair punched off in the mori, his coat is entirely lined with spare sunglasses. Hail to the best killer
I’m always a huge fan of the re crossovers this one looks even more amazing than the last!👌
too bad survs will bitch and moan and have him nerfed
For real this killer isn’t a pushover like nemesis thank god it doesn’t take 3 hits to down with weskers power.
This must be the most badass killer in the game
goofiest*
tied with trickster tbh
@@kyzer17 You wouldn’t be saying that under the circumstances where the plot of the resident evil games happens in real life and Albert The Weskinator Wesker lifts you off the ground by your neck and takes off his glasses like an absolute bad ass and then kills your or quips or something.
@@kyzer17 L opinion
probably. so it'll be no surprise when whiny survs have him nerfed into oblivion
Nope. Oni \m/
Bamboozle + Fireup + Superior Anatomy = KILLER VAULT SPEED BUILD
@*smirk* Gonna make tombstone Myers a whole new level of scary.
Hey otz, just wanna say thanks for the first reaction you did this time, its a small thing but its much more enjoyable for those who dont have the time to watch the streams!
Agreed, i really enjoyed this video ! Can't wait to see more of Whesker !
they put so much effort into this new killer its actually insane
I think both dashes are the same length. It must get stopped on inclines sometimes, which is probably a bug. Wesker looks amazing though!
No, the 2nd dash is significantly longer than the first dash, actually. Kinda shockingly longer even. It's like a reverse Nurse
@@richardcarter8751 Oh, cool. That’s weird though. I would think they would make both the same length because of those two brown addons that increase and decrease the distance of them.
its just really that inclines like stairs are horrible with movement abilities in most games. i think they didnt make them actual stairs but rather slopes which just slows you down when you use such a dash into it. a nice example is also in for example elden ring some enemies cannot move up certain slopes and stairs because of their movement. id say blame unreal engine and map design choices in the end
Slopes have been bugging video games for at least since at least super Mario bros 3
I’m disappointed that he uses the Ouroboros instead of just doing his iconic charge, I also don’t understand the knife. I like that it has the RE4 & 5 swing animation but Wesker is more known for his insane hand to hand fighting. Still looks fun to play even if he acts more like Jack Krauser (possible legendary skin?)
The fact he doesn't pimp slap as his m1 is an L imo
@@cherry9787 probably too similar too nemesis, dev's wanted something unique
@@SethiKinsGaming They could of done palm strikes instead of punchs, we already have 4 killers with knives.
Yeah, my one gripe is the heavy Ouroboros focus instead of his hand-thrusts. The mori also didn't have his sunglasses toss. I wouldn't mind if the tentacles were just his M1 vs. a palm-thrust out of his charge, but they really went nuts on those gross worms he couldn't even fully control.
@@CaptainDoomsday Yeah, the hand worm things kinda make my eyes roll.
Love seeing more RE licenses in DBD
8:09 keep in mind it's the ptb they can easily alter the numbers when the chapter comes out
that window perk works with his power which is nuts, the mori is crazy, he's fully voiced and has unique voice lines with Chris. They did really well with him! The ouroboros tentacles are the wrong color though, they should be dark red/fleshy not black. Other than that I'm pumped! Ada and Rebecca look great!
T
The new perks seem to synergize with old RE ones like rejoltance and blast mind. Neat idea.
I watched your reaction live and it was priceless 😂 Wesker is so damn cool
Otz: "Wow I just heard thunder outside which was really perfect timing." Me halfway across the world also hearing thunder: "Hmm... toooo perfect timing..."
That pause with a grin, when you select Ada Wong. Yer a bro alright😂
I'm immediately maining him. They took some of my favorite parts of some killers and put em together. A+
Same. His ability will make recovering from setbacks WAY faster. He's great for time management as far as I can see. May even become a loop slayer lol
Face camping bubba wins always
"They took some of my favorite parts of some killers and put em together. A+". In other words, they took the only abilities of single killers and put them together to create an OP killer with MULTIPLE OP abilities, and his cooldown is gone now. So that is why you are maining him no other reason. A+ for no skill killer. L.
@@hailhydra3058 You're hella salty. Go outside and get some sunshine bruh.
16:55 Wesker voice lines are the best 😩
That seems extremly powerfull (Demogorgon and nemesis look weaker than that guy), hope he wont do to them what Dredge did to Sadako
Also wish Doc had 40m terror radius, half of his power is based on it
yeeeeah, that's exactly why Doc shouldn't have a 40m TR
@@prohikikomo Sadako can "feel" more powerful but Dredge has great antiloop and has more room for mistakes unlike Sadako who barely has any antiloop(unless its short loops where she can invisible lunge) and cant make many mistakes. If you're not talking from a meta perspective then yes sadako-chan is cuter and can be headpatted
The only reason why nemesis looks weak compared to wesker is his power doesn’t take 3 hits to down and I’m glad they didn’t give wesker that treatment thank god it would be awful otherwise.
@@prohikikomo dude she is not
I think Nemesis will still have a better pallet game.
Injuring over one or just destroying a pallet is better than vaulting it imo.
Still probably gonna main Wesker tho, lol.
The face animations are looking stunning the killer is really great i guess some of the perks could get a buff here and there but all in one this Chapter looks amazing
This isn't super big, but Rebecca's bio makes it seem like she encountered the oni right after entering the entity's realm, which I found interesting
For a character that is known for hand-to-hand combat, I am very confused at the choice of giving Wesker a knife.
He also has a handgun named after him but I can't think of a single time Wesker is seen with a knife.
I'd understand if it were Krauser.
Still looks fun, though.
About the knife, I think it's because, despite the fact that he uses only punches and kicks and even being both strong, I'm not sure if that would be enough to make survivors bleed already just by one strike. A knife would make a bit more sense. Nemesis fits a little more with that since he's a lot stronger. All STARS had their own knives if I'm not wrong so still works someway.
@@darkishpredator
A punch of him would probably kill all survivors on the game lol
@@sawney-21 Probably, since most are just regular people. I'm still a little confused by the knife. Maybe in their heads would make more "sense", I don't know.
@@darkishpredator I'm guessing that would be the case. A knife makes a bit more sense in the bleeding department. A punch would break bones but they wouldn't really bleed unless they were hit with a killing blow. A cut makes a bit more sense just in the design aspect. Everything else is kinda just left out lol
Hey Otz! I was just waiting for this video! Definitely not in your chat rn… yeah… definitely not spamming you KEKWs now
This year is flying! Only 1 chapter left this year 😲😱
The game should end at 7 minutes with Wesker, since that’s all he can spare to play with us.
after seven minutes he should transform into volcano wesker and gain long range sweeping M1s
surprised he didnt say anything about the chase music. One of the best chase themes in the game (half of the reason i play him to this day is just to listen to this in a chase)
Can’t wait for bamboozle, superior anatomy, blood favor, and undying with scratch myers
He feels like blight, where his power is truly at its best on an open map. His second lunge is no slouch when you have proper space. Trust
i'd disagee as if you just throw someone they don't get injured. although maybe that could occasionally be fine? maybe he'd be best on open maps with the add ons that increase your toss range/how far you go with the survivor.
wesker is pretty insane! happy to see more re characters in this game :))
A couple of comments:
First dash is actually shorter; you just clipped an obstacle on the second one, and never noticed before or afterwards that the second dash is actually longer (first is like 8m, second is like 12)
The red ring means fully infected, which means hindered and can be picked up no matter what when dashed into, even when healthy, and without needing to hit a wall
Bashing an injured Survivor into a wall after dashing into them will pick them up instantly regardless of infection progress (you did this several times and mistook it for the fully infected pick up, and even missed the times you picked up people that weren't infected at all)
It also specifies in the power just before the Infection header that the "obstacles" it says you can vault are just pallets and windows; no low walls or anything like that
And that's about it ^-^ Just wanted to clear up some of the misunderstandings and get some information straight
EDIT:
Virulent Bound extension is the distance you charge holding the Survivor you hit before either slamming them against a wall or throwing them (I'm 99% certain of this)
The dash going over windows is MASSIVE for kill shack. Helps u close distance
these videos are so absurdly entertaining to watch after quitting dbd, like i don't follow dbd news apart from new killers so this is really entertaining to catch
It would be cool if when you grab someone with his power facing a ledge theres a small falling animation like smashing them into the ground instead of just dropping them
I think low profile should do this instead
After crouching for 3 seconds Low Profile activates for 15 seconds. When low profile is activated, your footsteps make no sound and you don't effect grass, bushes, corn, etc while moving throught them. Low profile has a cool down of 60/45/30 seconds.
in my opinion, could be a pretty cool stealth perk if reworked.
This is what I assumed it would be from the leaks. Been waiting for a perk that suppresses footstep volume since Calm Spirit
Honestly one of the most fun killers in the game. He’s not that broken tbh.
I love how they added voicelines even for Leon
The mori animations look like they were done in SFM and I love that jank. Good shit.
I feel like Hyperfocus would go really well with Stake Out (easy great SCs), Prove Thyself and Fast Track (high risk high reward). Put a Brand New Part/Wirespool on with Commodius and you've probably got the most toxic gen rush build ever devised. I'm kinda curious on how that would effect a generator, and if these perks would actually have good synergy or not.
Could be good on paper and horrible practically.
My only problem is that Wesker has the threatening, powerful looking power that I feel like Nemesis should’ve had instead of a tentacle slap.
Eh, I kinda understand what you mean, but it makes sense for Nemesis to have the whip. It probably doesn’t help though that half his power is locked behind Zombies rather than his actual power
True, Nemo really got the short end of the stick, they should really rework the 1 ton giga-bioweapon.
@@zachtemoro2116 It just seemed kinda backwards. Wesker is more of an intelligent manipulator from behind the scenes (until RE5) whereas Nemesis is a powerhouse monster hellbent on destruction. He can have the tentacle, but the aggressive throw seems less like Wesker and the zombies would suit him more. Still love both killers but just seemed backwards.
@@xKazeNoKishi Agreed, would make more sense to have Wesker utilize a horde of zombies to do the work then Nemmy who should be a force to reckon with. Either way i hope BHVR does something about zombies cause more often than not they are useless.
@@dannik82 yeah me too. I love Nemmy but half his power just doesn’t work.
*Project W, a.k.a "Albert Wesker"*
[Otz in the description]: *N E M E S I S*
I love that for wesker they use lines directly from the game, I love it.
i love the special voicelines he has with spasific survivors from the res-evil seires
Oh yes, now imagine Wesker Olympics- throwing survivors into each other from max distance
Why in the world does Wesker have a knife when he can move fast enough to dodge bullets? I'm pretty sure he can punch harder than Nemesis.
Honestly not sure, I mean Weaker still uses a gun too so he doesn't just use his fists
For visual clarity. Namesis’s hand is BIG.
Otherwise, we would have the good old “Freddy’s lunge” situation (small weapon model leads to loss of visual clarity from survivor’s perspective).
In the RE4 the playable Wesker has a devastating super speed punch that can knock entire crowds back about 20 feet.
@@kingol4801 That's a good explanation
if your on the dying state when the last gen finishes with that perk that makes everyone broke does adrenaline heal you because I’m pretty sure even with broken you can be healed out of the dying state
Yes it does, broken only prevents you from healing to healthy.
@@nik_9889 ok thank you
The amount of effort they put into his voice lines and visuals alone make him S-tier to me
Came here to understand the Chalice (Gold) add on just to find out Otz also didn't get at first. These descriptions are not very clear, I know there's a buff at something but don't know what. Thanks for the info!
I want to see someone combine Distressing, Agitation and Starstruck on Wesker.
8:00 That is strong enough, even with the gen "nerf" of 10 seconds making it 90 that 6% bonus over 35 seconds will do more then expected. Especially with more people with this buff. Also stacking it with other speed boost perks like overzelous and prove thyself. Put that with a tool box and you'll be getting really fast gen speeds. Also if you end your dash prior to slamming them into an object you will throw them, if they hit an object after the throw they are injured if they don't nothing happens
Nah. It is only 6% for 35 seconds, doesnt matter how long the gens take from 0 to 100%. So actually it only gives you 6% boost of 35 seconds (around 2 seconds time saved). But only IF you jump on a gen right away and IF the gen takes more than 35 seconds to complete.
I really like the concept of the perk, but it certainly needs to be buffed. Like, make it a whole minute and only go down in timer when the survivor does one of the speed up actions, so you definitely get your value.
@@Merumya I can agree with you on the timer staying active when using one of the buffed actions and pausing when traveling between them
@@RayneHyuga sounds alright to me, y. but still: the amount of time needs to be buffed as well. how often do you get injured in a match and healed up again with the perk and then be able to make use of the time...
its just too many "ifs" for too small of an effect.
Love seeing Otz genuinly happy over new stuff. He deserves it. The game has been stale for far too long. Happy as hell for you man :)
Better than new should be really fun for solo que. Pair it with empathic connection and prove thyself whilst working on a gen and teammates can come to you for healing and help you complete the generator extra fast.
great vid otz i think the lab photo add on should be base kit and be changed to something like three bounds for 20% longer to charge up or less distance
Real gamers remember when this video was 360p
I am really really really confused about the "grab fully infected survivors automatically" part of his power because Otz has been smashing not fully infected people into walls and grabbing them automatically if they were already injured (which makes sense) but at the end of the video he grabbed a fully infected survivor and still threw them instead of grabbing them.
If he doesn't slam them he still throws them if they're fully infected
But if he does slam them he still picks them up even if they're not fully infected. Unless maybe it only serves as a pseudo-instadown for fully infected non-injured people.
He only picks up after a slam if:
A. The Survivor is injured
B. The Survivor is fully infected
Ok. Here is how it goes.
If you land your power on a survivor, you push them away. Survivor hitting a wall makes them take damage.
Exceptions:
If survivor is INJURED and you push them AND slam them into a wall, he will pick them up right away.
If a survivor is INFECTED and you land your power pounce on then (regardless of the wall), they will go on your shoulder.
Definitely going to be a top tier killer, no doubt
and how long until survs have cried enough to nerf him into uselessness?
I haven't played dbd for years now but I still watch Otz when a new killers released
i can already see the tentacle fanfics of this guy
