Surge should work for all attacks (e.g. Chainsaws).

    It should work for all attacks as it is already a underwhelming perk that you rarely see and having surge pop with a chainsaw or Pig Dash is going to be hardly noticeable.

    As it is now, it's not a very good perk. Reworking it like this would probably help it quite a bit, so it'd work as long as you can down someone by whatever means neccesary, be it chainsaw, shred, pig dash, corrupt purge, etc.

    The only exception would be when a survivor gets downed far away from you, like 32 meters (regular TR). For example: Lucky/pro hatchet throw from the Huntress from really far away, insta-down Trapper's traps, not mending (extremely rare but it still counts), etc. It shouldn't activate on those occasions. So it'd work as long as the survivor gets downed near you.

    It also needs the cooldown removed.
