1-    Sole Survivor perk is outdated the increase to repair speed by 75% is obsolete as survivors do not repair when they are the last the survivor. It is a race to find the hatch which is 90% found by the killer in the first couple of seconds then a race to try and open doors which are easily camped by killers. I suggest replacing this part of the perk with low profile effectively giving survivors a good and usable perk for endgame in place of losing 2 perk slots. Low profile plus 50% speed increase to opening doors or the hatch.

2-    With the changes to healing I suggest removing the audio cue killers have for survivor boons this is not a cue survivors have for hex totems. The cue allows for killers to easily find and destroy the boons repeatedly, combining this with the new change’s boons are now a back burner perk. A different suggestion is survivors make their own boons and not use killer totems (which the spawn points are known by most players). A boon perk would then make a boon as well as bless it with whatever blessing, they brought in.

3-    A fun suggestion I had for a slugging discouragement perk. The Ankle Biter perk.

When you are put in the dying state if you are not picked up and hooked within 3 seconds the survivor can choose to activate the perk, becoming undetectable to the killer, you can crawl at the same speed the killer moves for a total of 60 seconds, you have to find the killer and you can latch onto their leg slowing the killer down (exhausted status). The killer has to shake the survivor off in doing so the killer is stunned for 2-3 seconds and the survivor is thrown a set distance away from the killer and back to injured state. Survivor can not be healed by another survivor while this perk is active. Perk stacks with other survivors using the perk… increasing killers exhausted state when more than one survivor is holding on.
