attention!

In this thread, I tried to solve most of the problematic parts of the game that could be solved with a slight change without redoing the whole game, I may have overlooked/forgotten some aspects of the game

Killers will be discussed in "small thoughts about big balance: killers" https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/384221/small-thoughts-about-big-balance-killers/p1?new=1

(In these themes there will not be detailed changes to all perks and for each killers (maybe I will make other themes for this in the future)

So for a better understanding of the changes, after reading I advise you to read the topic "Small thoughts about big balance: killers"

Survivors:

there is a huge difference between solo survivors and swf, and in dbd sometimes even small information can separate 4k from 4 esc

and since we have 2 groups of players we can't balance the different aspects of the game well, so at the beginning let's bring solo and swf together

Info buffs:

survivors can see perks of other survivors in the lobby

basic kit bond: survivors can see the auras of other survivors at a distance of 32 meters

perk: now increases radius to 124m and works for the whole team

base kit kindred: shows the killer's aura within a radius of 12 meters from the hook,Illuminates the auras of all survivors for the entire team

perk increases killer detection radius to 22m

empathy perk changes: Illuminates the killer's aura within a 12m radius of a knocked-out survivor, Illuminates the auras of all survivors for the entire team.

  • Now that we have converted the solo level to swf, let's solve the main problems for the survivors

Anty camp

Survivors gain +10 seconds Hook Time

every time a new survivor runs up to the hook, at a distance of 10 meters the hook timer stops for 15 seconds (the counter of survivors running up to the hook is reset on each hook phase) does not work in endgame

Anty slug

after falling to the ground, the survivor can press m2 to start recovering, in this state, the survivor's blood loss is accelerated by 1.75x

in a minute the survivor will be able to stand up

m2 does not affect to m1, but they can fill at the same time

Anty tunnel

 if the survivor re-hooks in less than 120 seconds, a portal will form under the hook that teleports the survivor to a random far hook

when unhooking such a survivor, the killer will not receive a notification

and the survivor will be able to unhook him self 

( dont work in end game) 

Anty 3 gen

Now spawn 1 more generator, so the minimum number of generators is now 4

New item for survivors
