Nerf Billy or BBQ and Chilli please

A Character who can cross the map in seconds has no business using a perk that reveals survivor locations. Either make it soley a point perk, or slow down his sprint/get rid of his instant down. The tips and tricks everyone knows to counter BBQ and Chilli don't work against him. He's able to reach you too quickly. If you're unlucky enough to run into one who waits for you to be unhooked, then it's even worse. Please do something about it, he's not fun to play against. Hags with make your choice and Mint Rag are more tolerable, which is almost as toxic.

    That’s just one of the things that’s accepted in DBD. BBQ & Chili promotes anti-camping, which survivors complain about. Billy is a strong killer that greatly benefits from this. It also makes unhooks much easier when Billy is at the other side of the map instantly too

    I think I have a suggestion, that might solve the problem everyone has by a little bit. The perk is supposed to be used to give the Killer a target and maybe get him to leave the hook, for a chance to get extra BP's. But the more Survivors' fall to the Killer's hand, the easier of a detection tool it becomes.

    I had an idea along the lines of this:
    A deep bond with The Entity unlocks potential in one's Aura reading ability. After hooking a Survivor, all other Survivors' Auras are revealed to you for a second for each remaining survivor, when they are further than 52/46/40 metres from the Hook.

    This would make it so each death shortens your aura reading by one second, giving enough opportunity to hide, as your friends fall to the Killer. This shouldn't prove to be a problem for the Killer, if he intends to go for each survivor to gain all stacks and then proceed to kill them.

    This way the Survivors' have somewhat more of a chance to hide when the battlefield gets rough.

    Not really asking for much of a discussion when your only argument is, "WAAAAAH! TOO OP!"

    You know, if a billy can see your aura with BBQ and get to you within 5 seconds then it's more of a positioning problem on your part.

    If you suspect billy has BBQ (and you should be expecting it for EVERY killer) then keep objects and walls between you and billy so he can't just bee-line to you which buys enough time for you to hide, or the simple be within 40m when he hooks.

    How do the tips not counter him, you say this without presenting your reasoning. He cant see behind generators,  if you change directions he doesnt know that when the aura is lost. You present a problem that appears to be user error cause i play against bbq no problem daily.

    Just hide behind a generator in line from where he hooks someone or be close to that person. There is a counter for this so I think the perk is fine where it is at. (Survivor main)

    So nerf every perk according to the killer that can make the most out of it.
    This is important since survivor are just skins and EVERYONE can make the most out of everything.
    But hey, we balance survivor perks around the worst imaginable player, but killer perks should always be balanced around the best available killer AND player, right?
