Midchapter patch part 2 (perk and general changes edition)

K139K05

We all know that there's currently a lot going on in DbD. People claiming the game is unplayable, some perks being almost useless and a toxic community (that according to a friend is more toxic than the CSGO community). This post will feature some ideas on how to make some perks useful, I hope some staff will take a look at it.

General Changes

• Breaking pallets/breakable walls will now take 2.4 seconds (instead of 2.37 seconds).
• Survivors movement speed duration when getting injured will now last for 1.75 seconds (instead of 1.8 seconds).
• Recovering from a successful basic attack will now take 2.75 seconds (instead of 2.7 seconds).
• When a killer is more than 50% of the match Afk, survivors will no longer de-pip (after 15 seconds of not moving or doing an interaction, the killer is considered afk).
•
