Dance with Me is underrated

Killers don't seem to expect it. I'm off shift-w'ing away and they are still searching around the tile.

It's great on maps like Treatment Theatre where LoS is easily broken and they can't follow the scratch marks.

Especially now during the event and how I get Q&Q for free with the invite power.

Seems like a decent chase perk that can make or break a chase and waste additional time if they are relying too much on scratch marks in their pursuit.

    I think a lot of the issue I have with this perk is you need Light-footed and Q&Q to have a decent chance of getting away with anything with it... and even then you need to have not vaulted throughout the chase prior... it's a damned long cooldown considering how many things need to go right in order to get any value out of it whatsoever...

    With that in mind I can see how it's good with the silent invitation buff 🤔

    I hate that you have to use a full perk combo just to make vault escape…Lithe alone would do the same job and people wonder why everyone use Exhaustion.

    I think remove scratch mark for 5sec would do. Make it silent would make QnQ redundant.

    Indeed... I have a feeling the reason it's so short is that you can use it with Lithe and use it to run to Narnia... and I guess being able to ditch the killer would be an easy thing if DWM is too good...

    Part of me wonders if a better buff would be if you kept its stats the same, but gave it no cooldown... or give it a 7 second window where "rushed vaults" reset its cooldown where you could keep the effect if you keep vaulting, before it then goes on full cooldown… maybe then it'd find use with something like Cut Loose?

    Dance with Me is another fun perk that I'd like to see buffed. It just feels a tad underwhelming.

    Either do the easy buff and cut the cooldown in half to 20 seconds or make it also hide blood or footsteps. It just needs a little extra oomph.
