Devs, can you buff Shadowborn numbers back to v1.0.0 state?

This perk feels nicely, but that’s all. Objectively it is a very underwhelming perk, the only thing it gives you is fov enhancement. Instead of it you can bring Sloppy, Thana, MONITOR AND ABUSE, etc.

Also, Shadowborn is way less effective in some Killers (Legion, Demogorgon).

    They should really just buff the base FoV. 87° is cancerous so M&A/SB are mandatory just to make the game look nice.

    It is pretty lackluster, it should do more.

    It's pretty pointless now, you're right. I haven't used it since it was changed, because to me as it is now, it only really works as a beginner perk. Once you know the tiles for the most part and where Survivors will go, having to literally see them at all times isn't necessary, especially since there are better perks for tracking as it is

    I believe the reason it can't be bigger is because of clipping issues. I remember the Devs saying that if the FOV got any bigger you would see your shoulders clipping into your view. This was a loooooong time ago so I'm not sure if this is why FOV doesn't stack or why it can't be made bigger.

    I'd love that, or at least make it wider than it is if the original numbers would lead to crazy clipping.

    Make it allow killers to see better in dark parts of the map too or something for some flavor, it is called "Shadowborn" afterall 😄

    I use it on Nurse because that's just me.

    Fov of the game should be at least 90.
