Speedy exit gate opening

I have been playing casually off and on for almost 2 years but just recently started to get more into playing killer since the friends I was swfing with stopped playing as much. I am on console and have probably 900 hours in but only about 200-300 of that being killer. It has been a lot of fun so far despite the many frustrations. In the last maybe 3ish weeks it has felt like the exit gates just fly open when playing killers i don’t have No Way Out unlocked on. I started playing with a stop watch going just to see if it is actually fast or just my altered perception of time if i am in a chase. Today I had a rough match on Eyrie of Crows where the gates opened 8-9 seconds after the last gen popped. i got into chase a couple seconds after the last gen popped and that wound up being my only kill. other matches it is usually around 15 seconds. i see a Wake up here and there but todays match the only relevant perk I saw was resilience but it was on a healthy survivor. Are there perks I am not thinking of that make this possible? I am trying to get No Way Out on the killers i am learning now but it just seems like a big shift has happened in recent months where doors open very quickly.l instead of being 99ed. Is this the counter play to popular end game builds at higher mmr? I am definitely solidly in mid mmr based on how i would compare my gameplay to the higher ranked gameplay I watch online. When i play survivor I only come across end game builds maybe 2-3 out of a dozen games so I am just wondering what I am missing.

    A less than 10 second exit gate opening could be possible but it would require two people at the gate once the last gen popped. One opening with Wake Up, and one near them with Leader. If the opening party had Resilience it could shave off another second about, but if they genuinely opened in less than 10 seconds after the gen popped, that shouldn't be possible.


    Sometimes it does feel that way for me, but I know it's just the consequence of a chase lasting longer than I think it actually is.
