In light of the new perk changes, I believe that Poised deserves these two buffs
1) Poised should also remove blood and grunts of pain along with scratch marks. Since Self Preservation now removes scratch marks, blood and grunts of pain there's no reason why the same shouldn't apply to Poised.
2) If you are on the hook when a gen is completed, the perk only activates when you are rescued, similar to Adrenaline. A big problem with Poised is that due to the requirements of completing a gen, Poised often activates when you don't want it to, a problem that Self Preservation doesn't have. By giving it the above condition it will allow Poised to have more utility as a stealth perk.
Maybe Poised should also have an increased duration due to only activating 5 times a match, but I believe that the above 2 buffs should be prioritized in order to bring Poised up to speed and make it an worthy counterpart to Self Preservation.

Considering how Niche Poised generally is, I dont see why not.
can we also include Distortion for point number one. It currently does not remove grunts of pain or blood, leaving the loudest survivor (Jeff Johansen, the owner of said perk) still vulnerable when near the killer.

I forgot about Distortion. It could be a good buff for it since as it is it's pretty underutilized.

Seems reasonable to me.

Or, switched Poised to a token system activatable at the survivor's discretion. But yeah, anything to buff Poised would be welcome. So many dead perks in this game.
