The only good things about the perk was starting the trial as if you weren’t carrying a powerful item as to tempt the killer to not use Franklin’s. With Ace in the Hole you could sometimes get the kits with Styptics in which the killer couldn’t anticipate. This could turn the tide of a game knowing you can take an extra hit.

When they changed Health Kits this perk became completely obsolete.

What I propose is a buff to Pharmacy. While injured you search a chest to obtain a limited item called “Pharmacy Health Kit”.

The Pharmacy Health Kit will have twice as many charges as the standard kit. It heals yourself 100% faster, and it heals others 50% faster.

The idea is to get the sense of having powerful items like before just make them limited versions obtainable through a perk slot.

Survivors would still have to take the time to search a chest while injured to obtain one. Survivors will still have to find other survivors to heal them with it. Survivors could also make builds around it to be designated healer. Instead of using the same old perks.

Killers can use Franklin’s to shut it down. Killers can also drain its charges through Overwhelming Presence. Killers can still run Sloppy, and interrupt heals if they play strategically. Even stockpiled coins can be used to reduce the amount of chests in the map. As to stop an injured player with the perk from opening every chest to hand these powerful kits to their teammates.

After dealing with CoH, and other perks that are often strong while injured a perk like this wouldn’t be bad.
