You have any Idea for Boon effects?

So, since Mikaelas Launch boon totems are a thing in DbD. We got two new Perks with Boons. The good one and the meh but okay one.

You got any ideas for future Perks with boons and their effect? I think this new mechanic is very cool and has a lot of potencial in it.

I personally would think of a boon Perk that increases luck, but not only for unhooking yourself. Luck should effect things like the Items you find in chests too for example. It wouldn't be that useful, I get that, but not every Perk needs to be super amazing and op I think. There should be some Perks for sure who concentrate on less important or useful aspects of the game. I mean Ace is built on luck :D

    I have 3 ideas for boons

    1. A boon that gives you extra bloodpoints

    2. A boon that helps remove negative status effects

    3. A boon that help revel auras

    Sure

    Boon all seeing: The auras of all windows, pallets, hooks, totems, and generators are revealed within 24 meters of this boon, whenever the killer snuffs this boon, their aura is revealed to all survivors for 6/7/8 seconds

    Boon rejuvenation: While within 24 meters of this boon you recover exhaustion at a 50% increased rate (additive and works while sprinting) if this boon is destroyed you become exhausted for 30/25/20 seconds can stack with other exhaustion timers (effect does not increase sprinting recovery speed when stacked with other copies of itself or vigil)

    A boon that removed all Hex effects from everything inside would be cool but probably hard to implement.

    I don't even care anymore. A global boon that adds 25% bonus progress to all generators when a gen is completed. A boon that gives the killer hindered status within it's range which is extended to 32m. A boon that makes pallets take 100% longer to break. A boon that doubles the duration of stuns/blinds so that swfs can have even more easy games.


    They better be brushing up their killer bots/killer incentives. It's getting ridiculous.

    A boon that lets you vault windows and drop pallets 20 percent faster and increases all stun durations by 2 seconds in a 24m range, and a different Boon that reveals all killer and survivor auras in the 24m range of the boon

    Boon Bubba: all current hooks' timers are paused until boon is snuffed out. Auras of this boon totem and survivors in the boon area are revealed for killer

    Mark my words, by next year we'll have a boon that gives everyone a free health state within the area akin to Mettle of Man.

    "But it only works when you're in the boon" they'll say.

    "Mettle of Man works everywhere" they'll say.

    It would be nice a Boon that increases vaulting speed.

    Boon role reversal

    1000% Boon area of effect

    survivors can instant mori the killer

    Survivors gain 200% running speed

    Survivors are invincible


    Or maybe add a perk called killer b gone where the killer can not be within 100m of you when you run it

    Boon: Incentivised

    Hearing the bells ringing out brings you great motivation to perform the tasks at hand properly.

    Press and hold the Active Ability button while next to a Totem to bless it. Soft chimes ring out within a 24m range.

    While inside the Boon's range, gain 90%/95%/100% bonus Bloodpoints in all actions. The category cap for points is removed during this time.


    Boon: Recovery Zone

    The soothing chimes bring stillness to the soul.

    Press and hold the Active Ability button while next to a Totem to bless it. Soft chimes ring out within a 24m range.

    While inside the Boon's range, regain Exhaustion while running at 80%/75%/70% the normal rate.

    Recover from Status Effects 10% faster. Does not stack. Trumps all other effects.

    Regardless of balance:

    • A boon that prevents any gen regression and highlights gens
    • A boon that reveals the aura of pallets and lifts up downed pallets in the area after x seconds since it has been downed
    • A boon that prevents killers from blocking windows via any perks and allows an extra vault before blocking
    • A boon that reveals all survivor auras within it to all teammates and the killers aura every x seconds for x seconds
    • A boon that slows down the survivor's hook progress and reveals the killers aura if they're x meters from the hooked survivor
    • A boon that slightly slows down a killer's vaulting and breaking a pallet speeds and slightly increases a survivors vault speed.
    • A boon that allows you to do certain actions faster, including: Mending, opening an exit gate, cleansing a totem and reduces negative status effects faster (not including Exhaustion).

    Boom stuff you: When the killer walks within 24m of the boon they are frozen in place for 20 minutes and then disconnected from the game.
