Just asking about Prove Thyself
Seriously, how people feel about this Perk?
Answers

In what respect? From a killer perspective, from a survivor perspective, from a balance perspective?
I think it's mostly fine as it is to be honest. 2 survivors on a generator isn't as efficient as 2 survivors (or more) on 2 separate generators - the only time its value is arguably better is when there's one generator left and the survivors can smash it out quicker. For the most part, though, I'm more worried about 3 survivors on 3 separate gens whilst I'm chasing one pressure wise than I am 2-3 survivors grouped up on a generator.
From a survivor perspective - I like it mostly because it gets me to 10k objective points way quicker - it makes doing gens with friends feel better.

Your point goes out the window in late game. Thats where Prove Thyself is more effective

It only cuts down on 6 - 7 seconds on a gen. Considering all it does is negate the penalty from normally doing it with another person and most people use it at beginning to mid game the perk is not that good. In a 3 gen situation yea sure, but in most cases it’s helping the killer.

I disagree with that too. Prove Thyself incentivizes doing gens which is more efficient then soloing a gen. Even in early game it is a powerful tool to take out strategic gens near the center. Which you dont need to communicate to your team to get them to do the gen with you since as soon as people see you have the perk they want to get in on those points.
Playing that to the second card is worthless when you lose efficiency with your team as a whole. The only time that you get that value that your talking about in the other instances is if all the survivors are actually doing gens. Which in soloq is a huge issue since everyones doing archives or dailies or screwing around. Swf is different, but we arent talking about swf.
Its a very powerful perk which is oddly undervalued apparently.

Yea and if a killer comes to your gen he know has double the pressure. 2 people aren’t doing gens now which can lead to a snowball since now they’re in the same area. It is not more efficient than soloing a gen? 2 people doing 2 different gens is faster than 2 people doing 1 gen with Prove Thyself. And even if it were faster it doesn’t change the fact that if the killer comes you’re helping him now since you’re either getting chased or wasting time trying to leave the area. The center, where the killer always checks and defends the most? You get point while also putting yourself at a disadvantage because your efficiency is cut in half. Again the killer finds you and that gen isint getting completed. Giving him free pressure at the sake of 6 seconds and some blood points. Which why play survivor at all then? Play killer it gives more blood points.
In SoloQ my team doesn’t even know how to unhoook people. Weather they do the gen or not if they’re bad they’re bad. Odds are you weren’t going to win. Especially since it’s slower with PT.
Because it’s situational, relies on your team, and gives the killer pressure. Any mobility killer will gladly thank you for running PT, 2 injured survivors not doing gens.

Your pressure argument doesnt make much sense. The killer can only chase one. At that point the one not being chase should just run to a gen. A game won and lost based on what gens are done. If anyone on your team understands this and can loop you can pressure the center. Its usually what I try to do.
If people are just slamming random gens with PT yeah its speed is less important. PT is strong in pointed pressure situations. Its just a fact. Regardless of the way you try to weirdly justify that its not. It by itself makes and breaks games.

Yet he can easily injure 2. Especially with STBFL. Even without it most killers are gonna injure/down both of them. He as to waste time going to a gen and risked getting injured/wasting resources when he could’ve just done a separate gen which most likely would’ve gotten done while the other survivor also on a different gen is now getting chased.
I know. I literally said that’s when it’s strong. 2 different times in fact. HUH? In almost all my comment I sai- you know what yea sure 🤣 go off king. Yes it breaks games so much so that every comp player runs it- wait a second

Yeah because the survivors are just going to stand there and take 2-4 hits. You can admit you dont know what you’re talking about its cool dude.
Now you’re bringing in implied killer perks. Then suggesting that because a comp team doesnt use it that its not a game changer. If you dont see the lack of logic there idk what to tell you. Im going to let you figure that one out though kind of done with the belittlement even though you’re wrong.
