Make it Better: Prestige and Perk Resets

Let me start by saying, my account currently has just shy of 800 hours in Dead by Daylight right now. It's by far my most played game, and I get a lot of enjoyment out of it. I bounce back and forth between Survivor and Killer, always working towards the archives and daily rituals to mix things up. I've invested in all of the DLC content, as I like the variety that different killers offer.

At this point, I've learned every teachable perk that exists in DbD. Every survivor is level 50, and all killers are 40+. This was no quick or easy feat; I've been working towards it since day one. I've prestiged one survivor and worked through hundreds of bloodwebs to make all of the perks available to that character.

When it comes to prestiging other survivors, the thought of unlocking perks again is exhausting. It literally kills my drive to do anything further with them, and kind of makes me feel locked into the survivor I chose to prestige. This is doubly true for my killer roster. Considering every killer is unique, I enjoy playing all of them, however it's been a terrible time just trying to find certain perks to make some of the killers viable.

So what I'm asking for boils down to (after learning a teachable perk), make it available to all characters at level 1 immediately. This would cut down the grind for people, and also encourage them to experiment with new killers or survivors. You wouldn't have to progress through hundreds of level 50+ bloodwebs just to see a certain perk or two.

Alternatively, upon prestiging a character, reset all of THEIR learned perks to level 1, meaning they can still use anything they unlocked on the bloodweb (at a lower level). Then, they can progress through the bloodweb again to learn anything new and/or rank up their existing perks.

I strongly feel that it would be better for the overall health of the game. Just my two cents!
