Have Calm Spirit be a counter to Sloppy Butcher, reducing how often pools of blood are left on the ground.

    Devs said that we can expect some perk reworks in the soonish future, I hope they will surprise is in a positive way

    Animals are often at ease with someone who lowers their heartbeat. So it could in fact make sense to add blood reduction or nullification

    Devs said we could expect teachables reworks in September 2017 too.
    Just saying.

    Imo, next step is DS/Hatch and trapper rework, with a few possible tweaks but I doubt they're gonna remake teachables anytime soon.

    I know, all we can do is hope.
    If you lose hope, then you better uninstall, because the game is not worth playing in its current state tbh

    I'm all for crows having a bigger influence in the game and Calm Spirit getting reworked.

    They need to rework lesser used perks so that it changes up the perks people use. I mostly see 8-10 survivor perks being used against me. Shake it up.

    Don't they just need to change a variable in the code? How hard can it be? Prove Thyself is horrible. It isn't worth anything compared to Leader. It relies too much on being together.

    What if Prove Thyself was like Leader, but got stronger each time that survivor did something bold, like how We're Gonna Make It stacks are gained?

    Right, something like that might be cool.

    It doesn't really need buff, it just needs a purpose, the crows aren't that usefull atm so making them more important would make the perk good.

    Thinking about the horse on the new map, I would like new interactions with the wildlife in DbD. I remember something about a pig that was running. If they add more animals, that hinder survivors (crows give away location, horse says if someone is nearby, pig can hurt survivors while running...), Calm Spirit would have a natural buff by being to able all these animals ^.^

    There might be a killer that uses fauna. Calm spirit might be a direct counter.
    Tho ur right they should rework it. It was a counter to spies from the shadows but who runs that.

    The reason they don’t Buff perks that would take 15 minutes of number changes in the code is because they use Spaghetti code.

    If you want a buff to Calm Spirit, just buff SFTS.
