Endurance MUST make survivor intangible.

I love how the devs said "We are looking at the most used perks, and toning them down in order to reduce their usage." and then they omega-buffed borrowed time.

This will ONLY make matches worse, and MORE cheesy. MORE campy. This new endurance will NOT be used to "have a chance to escape a camping killer". because top survivors will abuse the endurance status every time. It does not prevent camping/tunneling, it FORCES the killer to camp.

You might say, "This encourages you to go for the unhooker!" no it absolutely does not. It "encourages" the UNHOOKED SURVIVOR to bodyblock for their rescuer, forcing the killer to hit them with bodyblocking and endurance. Not only is this already done to the point of BM, it is the literal opposite of how the devs say they want it to work. pretending there is counterplay to this is like pretending bloodlust counters looping.

my only option: face camp always. Do not allow BT to activate in the first place. Or, wait out the endurance timer while the jacka** crouches in the doorway, and then tunnel them out. In no situation am I "encouraged" to chase the rescuer by this.


Fix:

Make unhook-endurance/BT remove the survivor's collision with the killer.

  1. Now they cannot sandbag the killer and force them to tunnel.
  2. now they cannot be sandbagged by the killer to wait out the timer.

Everyone wins, and the devs other "fixes to camping and tunnelling" will actually exist. Unless this and ONLY this change is considered, I will be camping and waiting out endurance, and so will all other high mmr killers.

    clarification* I meant "remove survivor's collision with the killer", not weapon hitbox.

    As long as this means that survivors cannot use Dead Hard, Borrowed Time, Off The Record, or some other form of Endurance to walk through the Trapper's traps then I'm okay with the change to endurance.

    I wouldn't have to main Sadako to bypass survivors using defensive perks offensively

    oh yes, I was only referring to the unhook endurance (like BT and base-kit BT and possibly Off the Record) not allowing the survivor to bodyblock the killer and vice versa.
