Meme Perk for Survivor

Similar to how killers have "meme" addons, those that limit their power in exchange for more points like Bubba's speed limiter or Plague's prayer tablet fragment.

It might be interesting to have something similar for survivors. Since it can't really be an addon, it could be a perk, something with an ingame penalty for a "out of game" reward.

Like 5% penalty to gen repair and healing, but double surival points or +25% or +50% to all categories.

I think it might be win-win: survivors can chose to have a penalty in exchange for more points and killers will have a bit more chill games.

Maybe it could also have a secondary benefit like seeing auras of others with the perk.

The effects could be different, just the basic idea of gameplay penalty for more bloodpoints or faster earning in the survival category which is usually the harderst to max

    imagine fusing No Mither and WGLF into one perk

    Not quite as extreme as no mither and not quite like WGLF as no further requirements would need to be fulfilled other than running it

    They could still be meme add-ons* for items. Like, your flashlight takes slightly longer to blind but you gain more points from blinding the killer and rescuing survivors with flashlights.


    *that you can't get while using Ace in the Hole.

    Here's a neat idea for a perk: You can fake being injured by holding down a certain button. There would of course be a cool down after letting go but it could be useful to pretend that you were weakened. Perhaps it could also be used while injured to fake being in the dying state.

    That would actually be neat if the killer is tunnely, then the healthy unhooker could pretend being injured and take a hit

    And when you have iron will while injured, you can fake being in the dying state to crawl undetected. Though you can get picked up obviously.

    I already have my mighty pebble.

    But I would like to buff it with change on just cool-down. It's annoying playing against killers without TR.

    Autodidact is a full-on meme perk. It's terrible, but really fun, the one match every twenty where you get it to work.
