Bloodlust Update and Good Old BoP

Finally the most useless mechanic will hopefully be removed entirely! As a killer main this prospect makes me insanely happy because it means Beast of Prey will finally get changed if there’s no bloodlust. So let us talk about it. What is BoP and Bloodlust? Beast of Prey or BoP as I will refer to it for the rest of the post is a perk that gives you the undetectable status and is tied to the Bloodlust mechanic, a mechanic where the longer you are in a chase the faster you will become. This speed increase has 3 tiers and goes from a 0.2 m increase to a 0.4 m increase and finally a 0.6 m increase. Doesn’t sound too bad right? It is after all, a free speed boost. Why’s it bad?The time it takes to gain tiers is 15 seconds per tier and all tiers are lost if you attack, break, use your power, or lose the survivor. This means that you have to actively leave all other survivors alone (to do gens and heal) while you chase one survivor and don’t attack, while simultaneously begging for them not to drop a pallet, for 45 seconds just to get a 0.6 m speed boost. Additionally you only gain undetectable from BoP while in bloodlust meaning you cannot walk away or do anything other than continue the chase while it’s active. In conclusion BoP is awful and can only get better from here, that is, so long as it doesn’t have bloodlust to hold it back. What would you guys do to fix bloodlust? Ideas? Reworks? Comment any you may have!
