    I think it's fine as it is and in the best place it's been now because you can still counter it in one way or another.

    I'm just glad it isn't like the old BT where you didn't even have to bodyblock because both unhooker and the one on hook automatically got it.

    Because this game isn't about scared survivors hiding from the big bad scary killer once anyone gets over 100 hours in the game.

    Camping, slugging and tunnelling are valid tactics that the devs have agreed to and that's why they have put perks into the game for survivors like BT, DS, SG etc because they need to have a way of countering them.

    It's a complicated issue.

    Both sides I think have valid arguments.

    Killers don't think it's fair for one survivor to shield another survivor with a perk. And I get that.

    But survivors also don't think it's fair for killers to snowball off hook rescues. I can understand that as well.

    Personally, I think body blocking should stay (for now anyway). Sometimes both survivors get away. Sometimes they don't. Given the circumstances, I think BT is in an okay spot.

    Exactly BT is more perfectly balanced then it's ever been. And if survivors wanna bodyblock for their teammates than so be it. I mean why wouldn't you if it's at EGC?? Gotta do whatever it takes to survive.
