How would you all feel about a killer boon?

This just came to my mind randomly, so I'm just wanting to share my thoughts here.

But how would you all feel about a new type of killer perk, like a boon, or a new type of hex, that within a 32 meter radius of a certain area you decide to place this new perk in, that area has a specific condition in it.


For example, within a 32 meter radius, all survivors suffer from the oblivious status effect, or within a 32 meter radius the killer gains the undetectable status.

I feel like perks like these could make a sort of tug of war for the totems and maybe bring some balance depending on how they implement perks like this.

Let me know your thoughts!

    Chill out lol, op didn't necessarily say Killer boons would be as weak as Survivor boons. They could be more powerful given its easier for Survivors to snuff them

    The undetectable one would not be viable since SWF with comms just exists

    You made a lot of assumptions about how I'd have these killer boons work and proceeded to be blatantly rude.

    Before you make these assumption, try to see if your assumptions have validity behind them before you go and act like a jerk lol

    Killers have Hexes, though most of them are weaker than Boons, they still have em

    Boon is a waste of time for killer. If u play efficient u don't snuff every single boon cause u don't have time to do it. And u definitely won't have time to place your boon.

    In a way the new Hex:Pentimento is kind of like a Hex/Boon hybrid. I don’t know how good or bad that particular effect is but it’ll be interesting to see if works out.

    I believe that's called a Hex perk and they've been in the game for a while.
