i honestly dont think this is enough actually, i've still killed plenty jasons even after he gets rage mode. imo he still needs adjustments to make him harder to kill

axe isnt garunteed stun, but i can confirm axe will bring him to his knees did it plenty of times already after hotfix on PC anyways. but even before this patch axe always has a chance to not stun and bring him to his knees

also to add to this, after playing after the hotfix unfortunatly its still just as easy to kill jason as he can still be demasked after rage and once your demasked your still in the same spot as before and since you cant shift on the sweater girl you got to hope the kill glitches. all you got to do is beat on jason with axes/machetes etc doesnt matter if he gets rage as long as mask comes off

the sweater cancel still exists and you can have the sweater girl do double duty easier with shotgun, drop the shotgun to your feet use sweater pick up shotgun which cancels the sweater animation then shoot

the best jason i have played against would probably be @GeneiJin, on PC

funny enough i find J3 the easiest to kill in my groups lol id put J8 above J3

@Somethin Cool hmm id still disagree due to the -trap weakness, sure part 9 has it but i feel his shift makes up for it in my honest opinion part 8 is the best jason after Savini, with part 8 edging him out if the boat is in play

ive only been killed by @GeneiJin most kill squads have failed trying against me, i main Savini though. was just talking about non backer jasons

counselors can take traps soo easy i find that a moot point as i have no issues stopping the car and if you have played against me you know my shifts are very accurate. i dont usually try to catch anyone until i get shift anyways unless they walk into me

ive played this game since launch and i always find it easier to go 8/8 with those jasons i listed then part 3, for me part 3 is mid to bottom high tier. reason i say part 9 is the +shift and stalk are very valuable

i would disagree with that, and argue Savini is the best jason followed by Part 8 and 9

so arguably which jason is the best in the game?

how i like to avoid getting killed as jason is, trapping the door at your shack, has to be dead center though or it can be avoided. another thing you can do is take out the power bow for tommy house and trap it, though only do that if your 100% certian tommy hasnt been called or its a waste of a trap. Pay attention to the opening cutscene you can sometimes see tommy house in it. also learn to recognize kill squads ie a bunch of vannessas/bugzy just running up on your with machetes/axe etc, dont directly engage them and try to pick them off one at a time as they seperate with knives, quick grab kill ie choke,headpunch. if you do find yourself in a group make use of combat stance and block and wait for oppurtunities to strike also make use of shift as a get away too if needed dont want to take unnecassary damage to your mask, avoid breaking windows with a counselor right by it as they can get free hits off your animation.

damn i have played since release to and i only have 1529 hours lol
