Perk Rework | Monstrous Shrine

I think we all can agree that Monstrous Shrine is one of the most, if not THE weakest killer perk. And since the introduction of Scourged Hook perks, I've been thinking about what other killer perks could possibly be changed into Scourged Hook perks. And then I was thinking, maybe Monstous Shrine?

This rework is probably not the best rework idea and it would probably be broken on killers like Nurse with BBQ. I wanted it to be strong, but not too strong. I tried to balance it out by changing only 2 hooks into Scourged Hooks.

If you have any ideas to maybe make this more balance, or maybe a whole other rework for this perk. Please let me know :)

  • I feel like if it gets reworked it should still be related to the basement. And i personally don't really like this idea because of camping, and otherwise it could result in the game ending very early.

    It would need another requirement like you need to be at least 32m away from the hook or you could just camp the hook

    I would do something like.

    - Get extra 100% bloodpoints hooking in basement.

    - Basement hooks go X% faster.

    - Unhooked survivors have a debuff of an X% action speed for the rest of the game.


    With this, you dont want to tunnel/camp one survivor, just try hook every one of them at least one time. And extra points for new players are nice.

    Add Grasp and agitation and you can have somewhat a build.

    here is my idea

    scourge hook: monstrous shrine

    Your fervent care of the Hooks found in the Basement has aroused The Entity's interest.

    the basement hooks become scourge hooks and have there aura revealed to you in white (you know where the basement is at all times which is a good effect by itself)

    when a survivor is hooked on one of these hooks all generators will begin to regress automatically until no survivor is hooked on one of these hooks

    when the survivor is rescued from the scourge hook all survivors who were not in the basement have there auras revealed 4/6/8 seconds


    the idea is that it rewards the killer for not camping the basement but dose not benefit a camping killer as survivors will (hopefully) just do gens as usual
