Autodidact should say it only applies to other survivors.

Right now as it is worded it says when healing a survivor, but if you have self care equipped you don't get autodidact charges when healing yourself. The perk empathic connection specifically says when healing others, so I think autodidact should say the same.

It should say:

For every successful skill check while healing another survivor.

Current wording:

For every successful skill check while healing a survivor.

    They really should look at normalizing terms like these for perks. It's annoying when I'm looking for haste perks on killer, but some perks don't refer to the speed buff as haste.

    I don't think they really need to change the wording, doesnt hurt. But the term "Survivor" by itself generally implies other player's on your team, sometimes "Another Survivor" is used to indicate that it effect's one other player or a stricter condition, the same goes with "Killer" impling the opposing player. Also every perk that work's or effect's the player using it say's "You" or something similar like "You and another/all Survivor/s". The only time the game refer's to the player or all player's directly as a Survivor is in the status effect explanations.

    Autodidact in it's first sentence says "You start with a -25% progression to heal Survivor's", this already give's the indication that this perk only work's when healing other player's and not yourself.
