A new way to buff perks

Michi

There are many perks that are seen as being weak while being actually pretty strong. The problem is that the condition to activate or use them is too much of work to make it worth it.

Undying as example is a terrible perk if you run it without any other hexes but it becomes very strong when paired with other hexes.

So I was thinking about many obsession perks. PWYF, Dark devotion or especially Dead mans switch are strong perks with good effects but they suffer from the condition of finding and using the obsession. We have nemesis for sure but this obsession swap perk requires too much work already and furtive chase is.. furtive chase..

So what about fixing all obsession perks that require you to use the obsession by simply changing/creating specific perks that allows you easy access to obsessions:

• Predator (wraiths perk) : Simply make it so that the scratchmarks are only tighter together as soon as that survivor is involved in a chase + after chasing a survivor for 8 seconds that survivor becomes the obsession
• Furtive chase: the rescuer always becomes the obsession

Now with such tools to swap the obsession quickly without too much effort I am sure that perks I described above would see more play and slightly up the perk diversity
