SPINE CHILL buff suggestion

I just thought of an idea how to buff the spine chill, developers

Since the anti camp is rather not effective as it supposed to be due to its small radius (16 meters), and its not really changing the camping for a majority of killers (aka proxy camping) and focus chasing (as you suggested, its not really happening), SPINE CHILL should be able to take effect on anti camping meter.

"Whenever the Killer is within 36 metres of your location and looking at you with a clear Line of SightSpine Chill activates.",

"Increases your Action speeds for Blessing, Cleansing, Gate-Opening, Healing, Repairing, Sabotaging, Unhooking, and Unlocking by 2/4/6%." —— you should add "speed for the meter". this prevents from killer to be looking directly at the hook within 36 meters(or terror radius). off course, having a survivor near the hook will still prevent it progressing, but in a least sense, it will force the killer to stay away from hook.

this perk will be back to be as useful as it was before. and it force killers to focus on chasing.
and like your developers say, camping is still considered a tactic, survivors should still be able to counter it, even in a perk.

    The anti face camp mechanic works perfectly fine and it does exactly what it is supposed to do. The goal was never to end camping but to combat face camping, which is exactly what it does. You can no longer stand right next to the hook and camp that survivor out of the game.

    I wouldn't be against this buff to Spine Chill but I think you massively overestimate how much this would do. 6% isn't a lot, so we'd still have the same situation as now.

    I agree that there should be perks that interact with the AFC mechanic.

    For example, I made a suggestion to change Slippery Meat into a anti-camp perk. In short, it would increase the range and progression speed of the AFC mechanic.
