what are some of the best boon builds?

currently i'm using CoH and shadow step (with adrenaline and WoO) but i want to replace adrenaline with some other perk that'd make a good combo with these 2 boon perks i use. (no way i'm removing WoO, it's my 1st to go perk). so, would exponential (jonah's boon perk) fit in with these 2 boon perks? it's the same as unbreakable but just with faster recovery & unlimited, but only counts if you're in the circle; if the killer turns it off then it's basically useless.

about the last 4th boon perk that's called dark theory...i'd say it's the worst boon perk out of all 4 since it gives you only 2% haste in the circle, which is almost nothing so i don't really think that spending 500 auric cells on yoichi is worth it. i'd get it if it was at least 3%( like MFT) or slightly more but then it'd be "op" added with hope, but if it's just 2% then it's the same as nothing. so yeah, it's kind of a perk that doesn't really change anything.

or just give me some builds for CoH or SS seperately, it doesn't really matter to me whether i use one or both of them.

    I've gotten a few uses of exponential recently (brought by other survivors) killers seem to ignore boons more than ever before (they are weaker than ever) & i've seen an up tick in slugging especially when it's down to last 2 for the 4k.

    Personally I'm not entirely sure 3 boon perk load out is worth it if killer does snuff it you lose virtually everything, likewise if your teammates break totems though if you light up early their less likely to.

    Personally though if running 2 boons I'd go circle & exponential team mates can see you & heal you to full faster & you can pick yourself up.

    Other than indoor maps never seen that much value in shadow step.

    My current build is Boon exponential, For the People, Plot Twist and Flashbang.

    If the lobby I’m in had some flashlight users, I’ll switch our flashbang for Buckle Up or Soulguard.

    I find this a set up which allows me to be passively and directly altruistic when needed. I don’t use CoH as much as many survivors seem to be bringing their own medkit so I find boon exponential helps with slugging situations and my Plot Twist allows me to heal after FTP-ing someone and not need to take someone of a Gen or run across map to heal me.
