If Keys were removed... What would replace them?

Godot

I've seen threads about keys and moris and how it would be really good to remove both, because it's a fair and square, but wouldn't you need a replacement then? At least for the keys itself..

Well, I have an idea.

There's a lot of people who have a ton of key add-ons. Removing the keys is also getting rid of said add-ons which the player most likely spent useless bloodpoints on them as they are most of the time never used, except the Milky Glass and Weaved Ring.

Instead of removing the add-on, replace the key with something like a.... Lantern! It's as simple as it sounds:

A lantern held by the survivor.

As you recall, the add-ons on keys have revealing powers and how long it lasts. On the Lantern, when you use these add-ons, it would light up in the survivor's hands, while you use it. It would only burn out if the survivor depletes the power of the lantern, of course.

Following this, the add-ons that give the key more seconds of usage would be nerfed in a sense. But there's one thing: The better the quality of the Lantern is, it would not up the seconds of usage on the Lantern. All lanterns would have a 30 second usage and one ability, except the Rusty Lantern.

Keys turned into Lanterns:

• Rusty Lantern (previously the Broken Key): -> 30 seconds of usage. Requires add-ons for any abilities.
• Shiny Lantern (previously the Dull Key): -> 30 seconds of usage. Reveals a singular Survivor's aura within 24 meters.
• Iridescent Lantern (previously the Skeleton Key): -> 30 seconds of usage. Reveals the Killer's aura within 24 meters while considerably decreasing Lantern energy. This revealing effect does not work on an Undetectable Killer.

Add-on changes:

• Prayer Rope: Adds 5 seconds of usage to the Lantern's energy.
• Prayer Beads: Adds 10 seconds of usage to the Lantern's energy.
• Blood Amber (now Ultra Rare): Reveals the Killer's aura within a 46 meters range while extraordinarily decreasing Lantern energy. This revealing effect does work on an Undetectable Killer. Range does not stack.
• Milky Glass: Removed.
• Weaved Ring: Removed.
• Eroded Token: Reveals all Survivors' auras when within a range of 36 meters of range. Range does not stack.

The rest of the add-ons would remain unchanged. I didn't have any ideas for Milky Glass and Weaved Ring, since it doesn't make sense to keep a Lantern after death. However, this does mean that the Lantern would only have the Wedding Ring as a Very Rare add-on, so I would love it if some people would come up with new Very Rare add-ons for a "Lantern".

Noice idea for making "keys" aura reading only. Maybe another Very Rare could be that it reveals the hatch at a high cost of the energy? A little nod for being a replacement for keys. (and yes i know that a map can already do this however this just seems to perfect to not include)

Hovewer - i will post this anytime someone makes a key change suggestion. What with "Where did they go?" Achievement?
