Open Handed doesn't counter Knockout

in Bug Reporting

I just played a game with Open Handed against Knockout. I'm almost positive the +8 meters of aura reading didn't go through. Survivors were extremely difficult to find even at very close ranges.

Look into it. I'm pretty sure its a bug. Aura reading perks are meant to weaken Knockout.

    It might have been changed with the rework. Knockout works in a radius around the slugged survivor, it doesn't limit every other survivor's aura reading to the range that that person's at, you can still see things futher away than the slug, so it doesn't make sense that extending your aura reading range would decrease the radius around that survivor.

    While it may have worked that way in the past, I don't see this as a bug, more as the interaction finally working rationally.

    Edit: This is how I see it, your aura is hidden not just further away.

    It was never like that before, if its an intended nerf to Open Handed and Aura perks (more than this patch already is lmfao). I'd like some confirmation one way or another.
