The perk could use some readjustments that ' s for sure , I think though that making it so it triggers on hook would just encourage camping even more , and trust me , the past two days I ' ve faced around twenty or so facecamping killers . I think the bonus it gives to the survivor is a bit weak , it should be to all skills imho , this would encourage the killer to find the survivor a lot faster , and it would actually make sense since the debuff it gives is so substantial especially if its stacked with thantaphobia , but I think the reason the dev ' s made it so it ' s a focus down the obsession asap instead of last like the others is because they wanted two to fit the save them for last , and then another to kill asap . I ' d argue that its a wasted perk though , because like I said , if you focus them down first , then the rest of the team is generally screwed , and if you ' re having problems in palette town with PWTF rank 3 ? then that ' s a personal experience problem , especially when there ' s a crap ton of fresh blood in the game now , and not to mention how very little escape routes Survivors truly have now , you can ' t just chase mindlessly , you never could , you got to utilize strategy , if they ' re running to palette town , that means that another one is probably working on a generator somewhere , so you can break pursuit for a moment , go find another , or do a round about and get them that way potentially . The Shape has the tools to do that , much like Trapper , and Nurse . Though with that said , I do agree that sometimes it feels like giving up when you let them get away , but that couldn ' t be further from the truth , you ' re biding your time , and if you came prepared , its your home turf . You ' re hosting , you control the entire arena more than you realize , you are at a distinct advantage when it comes to latency , and with that in mind you must use the entire map to your advantage , where are the choke points ? Where are the generators laid out ? Where are the hooks ? How far is the basement from X generators ? Where are the chests ? Etc . Survivors already got to be aware of a lot of things in order to survive , the Killer needs to use their spatial awareness too , otherwise its just being simply being lazy . Dying Light plays into this kind of playstyle too , you can let them have some hope with the benefit they ' re given , its not like as it currently remains that it does anything to benefit them , its a bonus to Altruistic actions , which ain ' t crap if you haven ' t hit anyone yet , or hooked anyone , so they get the benefit for nothing , it shouldn ' t feel like extra pressure or a dead perk when its designed to be a reward after you claim your prize so to speak . Now , despite all this , I do feel the killer should get a little something , maybe allowing them to see a little easier in darker maps , without the decrease to light sensitivity Darkborn gives , or something along those lines , since the other perks give an obnoxious level of benefits to the rest of all the killer ' s kits , I don ' t think it giving it anything else would be beneficial , and it shouldn ' t reward a killer simply for managing to injurehook them , it should be a job well done after killing them , which again unfortunately encourages camping . Though I do like your idea that not having it be on death to try to stop the camping , but even if its hooking them , or slugging them , it ' s just another way for them to run slugstalker and watch them from afar as they hunt for more , it ' d just become a wider proximity camp . I ' ve seen people do that crap a LOT , especially recently with people trying to get ready for the new progression update , and being lazy and not wanting to deal with Decisive Strike . Grow up killers , its there for survivors to use , like you have Whispers , and NOED 3 . Stop being lazy . Something does need to happen , something needs to be addressed , we ' ll see what they ' re gonna do now when the stream hits , but I think you should try to bring it up , and ask them , its definitely an idea worth trying , cause maybe I ' m completely off base and it ' d be an amazing change , but imho , I just don ' t see it being viable in the bigger picture to change it like this . Keep up the good thoughts .
