Unique Add-ons for Each Survivor

Every Survivor starts off unique from the others. They each have 3 special perks. However, as players level up, Survivors become functionally indistinct from one another. Currently, all of my Survivors have access to the same perks. The only difference between them is purely cosmetic (excluding Bill and his louder-than-average smoker's cough).

Compare this with Killers, who (rightfully) have unlockable add-ons in the bloodweb which enhance or alter their abilities, allowing variations in strategy and game-play.

I think it would make Survivor game-play more interesting if every Survivor had (even one) unique add-on in their bloodweb, which enhanced or altered their original perk set.

This could be done in the same +1/-1 fashion as many Killer add-ons (eg. increase the range of Mikaela's boons, but also increase the time is takes to bless totems).

This strikes me as a great way to add variety to the game and also allow Survivor's to retain their unique character traits.

    I agree with that as well. But bhvr won't do that because they are afraid it'll cause ppl to cling to characters that are more meta. And that meta survivor might not be the one that's giving them more money from skins like for example if it was jonah. So they don't wanna lose out on more money if let's say Feng had the worst unique add on. Her sales would probably drop for it in skins.

    Also it's alot of work to begin with. And we know behavior takes their sweet time on everything

    This would 100% make the game more interesting and would make it easier for me to find a main lol

    I completely and entirely agree with this idea.
