Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

A discussion about DS

It's nice to have a anti tunnel perk and i love the ideia, the problem is when survivors abuse the DS power by forcing a chase even after a hook or something, and with the DS+unbreakable combo this have almost no counterplay in certain cases.

So I have some ideas to "Ballance" the perk to be used only as a anti tunnel tool and like to hear other suggestions too.

1° ideia: After been hooked you became the obsession, only obsession can use the DS. I like this ideia but I don't know how to improve in a 2 hooked survivors scenario so I thinks it's not that good.

2° ideia: After been unhooked, the DS enter on a pre-activation phase that last something around 15-20 seg. If you go down in that time, the perk remain active until you are pick up, either by the killer or another survivor/unbreakable/soul guard.

I was think about the pre activation timer pauses while in chase but it seems too strong.


3° ideia (the lazy one): reduce the timer to 45 seg like pop. But I don't like this ideia cause I don't think the time is the problem.


So what you guys think about this?
