All perks should be available for free
I may be seen as some greedy or poor or toxic, or whatever...
but
Perks are too essential to gameplay, maybe more than killer powers (tho this is debatable), and locking those in any way is unsportsmanlike pay to win, unfair behaviour.
Maybe im just old player used to b2p games, but buying advantage in the game is a thing i just dislike, and its a thing that lot of people dislike as soon as they will finds out this is p2w.
And dear Behaviour, people will still play the game, and still buy DLCs even if perks would be free to all. Yet game will look more fair from your part.
You can make custom look and discription to perks that are associated with specific DLC.
This may be seen like my personal opinion, but it is really a suggetion to think about.

Most multiplayer games have a progression system where you need to unlock items, weapons, characters, perks, ect. Grinding to unlock Dead Hard in DbD isn't too different from grinding to unlock Double Health in Call of Duty.
The major difference here is that there is SO MUCH content in DbD that the grind to get 100% perks looks completely insane to most people. I mean, we've got like 7 years of perks to unlock at this point. It's really just suffering from success and drowning in content.

Yeah, especially perks from licenses which cannot be grinded :)
And shrine gives opportunity to buy perks. 4 each week - 2 killer perks and 2 survivor perks.
There is 122 surv perks, which means 61 weeks (if you are LUCKY) to gather them all, and 104 killer perks = 52 weeks (exactly 1 year).
Each perk costs 2000 iri shards. You get average of 1 shard per 14 seconds in game, so you need to play 28000 seconds = 7.8h of gameplay to get one perk, its doable in 2 days, but most people will get this in 4-5 days, so most people will not get enough shards to buy 2 perks each week (and almost noone can buy all 4).

Heeeeey, I can recommend you a Youtuber who plays the game without Perks.
A good example that you dont need Perks if you train your looping skills.

To paraphrase in context with this topic:
Because this guy plays without perks, it means that no perks is exact powerfull as combo of eruption + call of brine and some 2 other perks? And in both low and high ranks? If so, then im wrong, and i admit that.

Tbh, I think every character should play with their base skills and allowing only to add 1 extra. That would prevent many of the complaints about perks being broken. It would take away from the game, granted, but it would still end them. That's what I think anyway.

Then complains would start over characters being p2w feature. This would change nothing.

Why would anyone buy new survivors if the perks are free? They are merely skins after all.

Why do people but new skins for both survivors and killers? Those are even worse than buying new survivors, and are more expensive.
If You know the answer, then You should know why people would but new survs even if already having perks.
If You dont't know the answer, then look at this - people do buy new skins for existing survivors, so why they would not buy skins that totally changes survivor look?
