Thrilling Tremors VS BBQ & Chili

Once again I'm working on builds for Doctor, and once again I've hit a stall. I'm deciding between BBQ and Thrilling mainly to let me know what part of the map needs my attention after getting a down/hook.

Is there any reason to run Thrilling over BBQ? Because to me it seems like BBQ is just infinitely better, since it'll do the same thing that Thrilling does (give you info on who's doing what gens) but without a cooldown, the information will be more precise and will include people that aren't doing gens too, and will give me bonus bloodpoints as well.

    Thrilling is better if you want to defend close generators or if you play with Starstruck. It may also have good synergy with Fredy: fake TP just before carrying one survivor. BBQ is better in every other cases oOo

    The universal opinion among high tier players is that TT>bbq on most killers, unless you care about BP bonus.

    Bbq is easily dodged, and unless you got a proper terrain that allows you to glitch yourself for the gen auras to be temporarily hidden, survivors can also "hide" doing gens on the opposite spot from the hook.

    TT synergizes with PGTW and also offers a built-in slowdown by itself. Besides that, in the case of doc precise detection of bbq isn't relevant as you can just blast around non-TT'ed gens when you get there.

    Despite its cooldown, Thrilling is a lot more consistent. BBQ is better for high mobility killers, such as Blight and Billy. Low mobility killers can actually benefit from Thrilling, however. I would say Thrilling for Doc.

    Interesting. I failed to consider how BBQ can be dodged. Thrilling it is!

    Thrilling is better, but bloodpoints are the best. So bbq and a pudding for me.
