How to make Boil Over useful!

Right now, this "random fun" perk may or may not work. Why should I use this?

What changes do I propose.

Instead of a new effect. You will now slow down the killer when he carries you on his shoulder, BUT you will need more time to get out yourself. That is, the numbers should be created in such a way that nothing seems to change, but you took away his cherished time from the killer

    Boil Over currently does often slow down the killer by making them stagger off the optimal path to the hook, stagger into obstacles for a few seconds, and occasionally make them either drop off a height for a 25% wiggle boost or take a ramp that makes them take 1 or 2 seconds longer to reach a hook. In fact the height aspect of Boil Over hasn't hurt me yet but I've lost at least a few hooks this week just to the stagger alone. Also by hiding the auras of hooks within 16 meters I wouldn't be surprised if there are some players who have lost a hook because they though they needed to go to one really far away and overlooked an unhighlighted hook right nearby.
