SoloQ Buff: Basekit Kindred, new Kindred effects

While hooked, all survivors can see all other survivors. No perks required.

(New) Kindred:

  • While you are hooked, if the killer is within 12/14/16 meters, their aura is shown to you and all survivors.
  • Start the trial with 5 tokens.
  • Each time a generator is repaired, lose a token.
  • When you are sacrificed, regenerate 2 of the nearest broken pallets per token.

----

This makes Kindred a great anti-tunnel perk. If a survivor is singled out early on, they can use up more pallets for self-defense than they normally would, since those used pallets can be refunded if they are sacrificed. (The sooner their sacrifice, the more pallets that are refunded).

    I'm all for base kit Kindred as long as the killer's aura isn't part of it (that should remain tied to the perk).

    Please no pallet respawns, though. There must be better ways to buff this perk. How about, if you use Kindred and unhook a survivor, they get a further 8% haste effect for 10 seconds (base kit BT duration). This would make it a pretty good anti tunneling perk in my opinion. This could also be tied to the token mechanic you suggested.
