lethal pursuer
i would love for this perk to be nerfed a little bit because it got buffed too much and shows the aura for way too long and i'm tired of being spawn killed 90% of the game i play because the killer run straight to me 0.5 seconds after the game started. i'm so sick of this perk.

It's a once per game effect. It helps start chases but does nothing to win them. It's fine.

LP is example of very strong perk, that is perfectly fine the way it is and does not need any tinkering one way or another

It lasts for 11 seconds bro.

I mean... experienced killers can generally pinpoint survivor spawns based on their own spawn location, so somebody is usually bound to get found early anyway. All it does is ensure that killers can get a chase going before a gen or two pops. It's a strong perk, but it's fine as it is; it's sole effect lasts for literally a minuscule fraction of the round and then it deactivates. It's fine.

11 seconds is a lot and in a small map the killer can easily go to someone and start a chase before it ran out

That's the point, to start chase, the Killer still needs to win chase for that to matter. Go to the bathroom while in queue instead of once you find a lobby if that's a problem.

It doesn't last 11 seconds. The 2 second bonus to aura reading doesn't apply to itself.

9 seconds isn't a lot on most killers.
It is however quite a lot on high mobility killers like Billy, Blight, Wesker and Nurse.
So in general, yeah it's not massively OP. But it could benefit from one particular nerf; it only reveals auras more than 48 meters away.
This should be just enough that it shows the auras of all survivors upon spawning, but killers who can close that gap very quickly immediately after the game begins, will reduce the time they see survivors.

I don't think it would be to be honest, I think the perk is fine the way it is, especially since it only activates at the beginning of the game. The Aura reading runs out before Nurse reaches you for sure, same for Wesker, Blight and billy might be able to reach? Blight more likely than billy to be honest.

Hey,
I like to use Lethal Pursuer and in my opinion this Perk is fine and does not need a nerf. The weakest point of every killer is the start of the match because killers have often no clue where the survivors are while every pallet is up. Lethal Pursuer helps with the former one by giving the information where to go and where the survivors are. Leathal Pursuer also works only at the beginning of the match. It's second effect to give other aurareading Perks and Add-Ons two additionally seconds is also fine because this motivates the killerplayer to run other Auraperks. Running aura or information Perks is also helpful to keep the game healthy and getting better at playing killer.
Yes, you can say that this Perk is too strong on Nurse and Blight because due to their high mobility they can immediately go to the survivors and give them no chance "to get into the game". However, the issue here is rather that Nurse and Blight are unhealthy/too strong and not the Perk, Lethal Pursuer, is unhealthy/too strong.
Overall, Lethal Pursuer is in a good spot and needs no nerf or something else.
