Soooo...7 minute match???

I just faced a SWF where one person ran simple chase perks to get sprint burst back while the other three ran these exact perks: Deadline, Stake Out, Hyperfocus, and Prove Thyself. Now, despite getting a down 45 seconds into the match by nailing down the chaser, two gens where gone and Discordance never went off. Soooo...cheaters or is this just reallllly powerful?

    Splitting on gens is always better than grouping even with prove. Survivors should ideally have 3 gens about 60-75% done by the time the first down happens.

    I would have to assume green toolboxes are at play here because even with hyperfocus I don't think it's possible to complete a gen in 45s solo. The only way they would do gens that fast with hyper focus is to get extremely lucky with skill checks, have a toolbox or both.

    Using toolboxes probably.

    If they were cheating, no reason to run a gen rush build.

    If they were cheating to hit great skill checks, they wouldn't need stake out.

    So, prove doesnt do anything in this case. Stakeout only works as long as you chase around them, so probably not relevent too. So there is just Deadline and Hyperfocus. If they did gens this fast, there are two possibilities: either theyre really good at hitting those skillchecks, or theyre medling with skillchecks in some way. And you basically cant tell apart. To be honest, majority of people arent able to keep up with hyperfocus skillchecks alone. Even worse with Deadline. Its not a good combination for like 95%, just for those with really good coordination skills. So, balancing around 5% is stupid, otherwise bowth perks would be insanely useless.

    7 minutes? I don't know, it's average time of my matches, if i didn't bring a bunch of slowdown. I'm not even surprised by 5 minutes matches anymore if I went with a meme build.

    7 minutes against a swf with full gen rush builds and splitting up ion gens is slow. Imagine if it wasn’t a swf with those builds. My guess is you would have easily won.

    Deadline requires you to be injured to work, and prove thyself requires other people on a gen. So unless you hit everyone those two really aren't the problem.

    Stakeout and hyperfocus on the other hand. If they can hit their great skill checks i can see it being done with just those two perks.

    Cheaters usually try to hide their cheats, so the gen rush build would make sense. It's pretty much impossible to tell whether or not they were legit.
