I think Eruption is probably overpowered

I mean you lose -10% of the gen progress and then you can't do any objective for the next 25 seconds. That sounds too good imo. In 3-gen situations (which killer can just decide to do from the start and plan it out and never leave their area), it's pretty near impossible to finish a gen (at least againts your avarage / non full squad Survivors). Now maybe on it's own it wouldn't be sooooo strong, but you can have other slowdown perks which makes this perk even stronger and very difficult to deal with.

    I don't think it's overpowered. You do have to kick gens to actually get the eruption to proc.

    Though I will say the incapacitated duration being 25 seconds is just kind of a bad change. Eruption isn't easy to play around as a solo survivor (especially compared to old pr and dms) so getting locked out for almost half a minute of doing any action is just a bit too much.

    Don't think it's overpowered but I agree that the incapacitated status is a bit too long. Especially in a meta where everyone kicks gens.

    It's very strong to go against, especially in solo queue, but even in a decent swf. It basically has no counter as you can't tell when someone else is going to go down.

    It's funny how they nerfed the PR+DMS combo just to turn it into one single perk

    I think the incapacitated status effect is too long.

    Also does vigil effect the timer incapacitated status too or not.

    The perk does not list incapacitated as an effect it reduces, so I would assume no.

    Thats unfortunate. Every new status effect should be included in vigil effect
