The state of WGLF

Hold your torches and forks a second before burning this thread to the ground ! Sit a while and let me explain my troughts behind this title :


DISCLAIMER: I know there weaker perks around & everything but eh, why not ?


Current state of WGLF :

It's difficult to argue the fact that WGLF is in a fine state, since it literally have no impact in a game besides praising people for their altruistic actions, taking a hit, safe unhooks. it has no inherent benefits besides rewarding "risky" gameplay.

Purpose of WGLF :

Well besides rewarding altruistic survivors, WGLF is sometimes, to always described as "killer BBQ&Chili" since it almost share the same benefits, Killers are rewarded to hook once each survivor, and survivors helping each others not being sacrificed.

Even if a killer can encounter quite often this perk, it has literally no impact in his gameplay, even then, we can consider it like an empty perk slot but I asked myself.

Coudn't we improve in a healthy way WGLF ?

My could say a hearty yes, by making it a weaker Kindred, I'm pretty sure we can give a sample of IG purpose to this perk, to help solo players and not making it abusable by SWF.

My idea of WGLF (Changes in BOLD )

Your few friends deserve the best protection.

Each time you perform a Safe Hook Rescue or take a Protection Hit for a Survivor, gain a stack-able 25 % Bonus to all Bloodpoint gains up to a maximum of 50/75/100 %.

Rescued and/or Protected Survivor(s) aura(s) are revealed to you as long a Survivor is hooked.

The Bonus Bloodpoints are only awarded post-Trial.


As you see it's basically a weaker version of Kindred or Aftercare since it has a "risky requirement", I'd say an alternative to more experienced players, it has no use to SWF since they always know their position at all times, and it helps altrustic survivors to know his teammates whereabouts in dire times.

BONUS : it fits David King personality pretty well.

Troughts ?

    I only want a name change to wgff, I also want a buff for it since I use it a lot, most of my builds include wglf but I try to not farm unlike many users, maybe yeah a small kindred could be better.
