Please Revert "Batteries Included" Nerf

The perk was already not good, as you rarely want to chase around completed generators as killer.

You'd rather chase around unfinished gens to pressure survivors and prevent the generators from popping. So I don't think nerfing a perk that was already not very good is the way to go. It also gets rid of fun endgame combinations like BFFS Legion! The endgame part of this perk shouldn't be scary or prevented.

Imagine a similar perk like Fire Up. Even if after the last gen got completed, it suddenly jumped from 4 stacks to 8 or something. It still wouldn't be a good perk. So please revert the "Batteries Included" nerf before the patch goes live tomorrow. Thank you and have a great day!

    I think this perk needs a rework. It's just stupidly designed.

    But this nerf is even more stupid, i agree. Most chases in endgame are near the exit gates, so this perk barely even touch endgame and super situational even there. But constant 7% without additional conditions is fair, you know.

    I think Hope and in general survivor endgame perks are more fair because getting to the endgame is your goal as survivor, whereas getting to the endgame on killer is mostly the killer failing at his goal. But still yeah, why nerf batteries included? I agree it could use a rework but if not a rework, then atleast don't nerf it.
