Keys should make you open chests faster

Ever since keys got hit hard, they've become almost useless aside from the very rare Blood Amber use. They are just outclassed by every other item in the game.

Since Pharmacy got destroyed survivors could really use something to open chests faster consistently.

I propose:

  • Make the Broken Key open 1 chest 75% faster which breaks it completely and it disappears from the match.
  • Make the Dull Key open chests 75% faster.
  • Make the Skeleton Key open chests 100% faster.
  • Opening chests should not consume charges since it is a pretty negligible side benefit.

    Keys need a full redesign. Let them still function as a way to open a closed hatch, but also something else. Like what if the basement had a door that you could lock with a key. And the killer had to spend time opening it to get back into the basement. This would give players counter-play when it comes to killers running agitation/iron grasp basement builds.
