I've always had this problem but I feel like with the new technician change it's a good time to voice it.

I feel like there is a really big problem with locking perks are meant to be to help new players behind teachables.

Technician

Windows of opportunity

Fixated ( debatably)

Zen-shin tactics


The problem with these purposes there are so many perk that are recommended to help me players out that by the time they finally got around to unlocking these perks that are meant to help them they don't have problems doing the things that these perk something to help them with anymore.

Since it's relevant let's use technician as an example.

When starting the game a new player is usually advised to pick up things like iron will, adrenaline, we're going to live foreve help the Grind and self care do that by the time they finally get around to level up Min to actually get a technician they usually already well adapted to hitting skill checks so technician is pointless.

Now for older players technician doesn't have a justifiable benefit to make it worth replacing one of the perks they already have.

With the new change coming to technician it's going to make it more new player friendly however it's not going stop the inherent problem I just described meaning the new players usually just aren't going to use it because by the time they grinded to it they don't need it a more experienced players aren't going to need it because it's not worth using because it's benefit are limited.

I don't know if you're going to be able to do this with technician or any of the other perks I mentioned specifically because they already teachables.

But can you please try to make them more beneficial overall for new players and experienced players and if you're going to make perks for new players please and make them universal in the default pool so the players can use them without having to worry about teachables

    Btw the technician change completely missed the point of why technician was under used in the first place
