    How do u think u can remove it? It's by human nature to split thing by worth.

    1. Perk Tiers is part of Achievements, So there is going to be problems removing them with Sony and Microsoft.
    2. Perk Tiers don't really matter, you will be hard placed to find a Perk where a lower tier would not have done the same job.
    3. Getting all perks to Tier 3, is more a waste of time on your part than anything.

    If you wanted to remove systems that increase the Grind without much benefit, Try directing Critique at the Prestige System.

    Constructive thought on this:

    • Perk Tiers could use some rebalance to make it better and less impactful.

    1. What do you mean part of achievements? (Also, many achievements were changed over time)
    2. If they don't matter, why do they exist? To pollute the bloodweb?
    3. No way. Tier 3 is almost a must for exaustion perks. 40s to 60s decisive strike is a HUGE difference. 11% to 33% botany knowledge. 8 to 12 seconds to bt. 100s to 60s broken deliverance. 50% to 100% prove thyself, I can go on and on. AND imagine you're 100% right, and it's a waste of time, why do you want to keep them?

    "Try directing Critique at the Prestige System."

    Prestige is as it says, prestige. It's not something anyone needs to do besides wanting a specific cosmetic.

    Unlocking perks is bad enough. Unlocking said perk then having to go through the blood web for each and every tier at a complete random rate makes it even worse. Unless you're a no lifer on this game you have no chance of keeping up, let alone if you decide to take a break. It is completely unreasonable.

    The perk tiers made more sense before when we had less perks. Right now it is just unbearable, grinding millions of bloodpoints for a specific perk that you may only get tier 1 or 2, terrible stuff.

    Buying a character should unlock by default teachables. Then reduce tiers from 3 to 2. Tier 2 is unlocked when buying from lv 30-35-40 teachable from the character bloodwebs.

    Yes, they're only there to increase the grind. At this point, with how big DBD has become, the game has enough grind it doesn't need perk tiers.

    It's a great start for reducing the grind.
