Plague:
- Every 60s, a random fountain becomes corrupted. Up to a max of 3 fountains.
- Survivors can use 8 charges of a medkit and 12s to "heal" themselves if their infection timer is less than 100%. Doing so will reduce the infection by 60%, and pause the timer for 45s. If the plague vomits on the survivor, or the survivor interacts with a fully infected survivor, or interacts with an infected object, the timer will stop being paused.
- Survivors can M2 an infected generator for 8s to remove the vomit without getting infected, but the plague is notified.
Trapper:
- Can carry 2 traps at once, but spawns with only 1
- Traps spawn closer to the center of the map.
- Traps spawn pre-set
- Escaping a trap requires 10s at base, and can be increased by add-ons
- Disarming a trap requires a moderately difficult skill check, and failing it will apply deep wound.
Huntress:
- The match will be canceled if the huntress player has bad ping (I'm joking)
Clown:
- Reloading bottle will reload one at a time, but will still take the normal amount of time
- Clown will no longer have a heart attack every time he vaults or pallet breaks
- Clown will be slowed less severely when throwing a bottle

I wouldnt mind a meta shake up and i like a lot of those ideas

No mither should also hide the broken status or give a permanent exposed status to the survivor with it, as well as not drop blood orbs or caugh against plague. (You can't NOT tunnel them down or keep them slugged the whole match, its too good of a time waster to pass up) If the status is hidden, no one will know the wiser until they get slapped. We should leave insidious alone tho, mind gaming at gens is the most satisfying thing to pull off when it works.

Added a few more killer perks to the list.

haha unfortunate but true XD

I appreciate the effort, but dont agree with a lot of these suggestions

I like the list a lot for the most part, but I disagree with 2 of the perk changes:
Iron Will:
- Grunting reduction from 100% to 75%
- Reduces breathing frequency and volume by 33%
Calm Spirit:
- Reduced the volume of your screams by 80%
- You don't scare crows away
- No notification bubble for screaming
- Noise made by healing is reduced by 50%
Personally, I think Iron will doesn't deserve that nerf and small buff, it's great as it currently is and a slight rework would not benefit it. And Calm spirit is fine as it is. The healing one could just be added on.
I love the intense focus perk, by the way. Sounds amazing.

The reason I nerfed iron will was purely because it was meta, and I wanted to shake up the meta a bit.
as for calm spirit, I wanted it to have a more useful effect. But if it became more prevalent, it would be extremely un-fun be doctor or infectious fright. I don’t think perks should completely nullify a killer or other perk.

With that Overcharge change, you somehow made Ruin Meta again,
0 -
Better ways to shake the Meta
Dead Hard - Can only be triggered once for every time you enter the injured health state.
DS - Removed when healed to full or another Survivor is unhooked.
Adrenaline - Aura is revealed to Killer for X seconds.
Surge - Applies other gen de-buffs to the closest gen.
0 -
That was the intention.

Nah, it’s had its 20 years of fame. It should sit in the background for a year or 2.
