Surveillance + Trail of Torment
I hear surveillance counters the terrible down side to trail of torment and turns off the yellow aura for survivors. I was wondering if this intended? I personally like it but at the same time the downside that shouldn't have been there in the first place. It needs 2 perk slots though and they probably should just get rid of the gen aura since it has a 60sec CD already. The arguement that survivors need a warning doesn't make any sense anyway, Ghostface, Myers, Wraith and Pig require simple awareness so i don't see the reason why the gen aura being on ToT is on there in the first place.

That sounds like a bug. The only intended way to get rid of the aura is blindness afaik

Blindness won't work with this aura, it only works for red auras.

Everything i knew was a lie. Guess i'll put my brown legion pin addons back in the closet

Sorry for the double quote but does that mean blindness also doesn't work against perks like bond?
I never run into blindness when i play survivor so i actually have no idea

It does hide Bond auras.
It SHOULDNT hide any white auras, which are often reserved for killer powers.

I believe Blindness hides all auras except Jigsaw boxes and pool of devotion.
On the topic, if Surveillance is hiding the yellow aura show to the Survivors from Trail of Torment it must be a bug, there is nothing in Surveillance that affects Survivors aura reading abilities at all, it must be bugged.

Its a bug but it actually makes the perk good.

Yep, basically bug balances the perk in the way it should work in the first place.
Same as back in the day with lullaby, where it wouldnt show survivors that they are affected by any hexes to begin with, making skill checks more hectic without hud warning them. Observant survivors caught on it very fast, and boosted potato swf meta followers were feeling the pain of game not spoon feeding them.
Sad it will be hot fixed as it negatively affects survivors.

Oh yeah this perk is ultra garbage, and you can't even make it work in blindness builds. It's so pathetic.

IMO they should just remove the yellow aura all together. An undectable killer makes for good jump scares. This is a horror game after all. Telling the survivors the killer is in stealth defeats the purpose of stealth. Did the devs learn nothing when ghost face was on the ptb?

Its unfun for survivors to have to actually pay attention. 🙃
Seriously though, many Survivors are running Spine Chill which helps counter this perk anyways.
