Beast of Prey got nerfed lmao
Now the duration is a bit more consistent which is nice I guess, but if you manage to have bloodlust for a very long duration (which you shouldn't btw), this Perk then doesn't really do anything.
Even the bloodpoint boost got removed…
I don't get it, why didn't you just completely rework the Perk? That effect was bad and now is even worse in some cases. The Perk will only be used by Adept Huntress' and nobody else like it was now, nothing changes, really just a waste of "programming" time.

it says “for the first time” idk if it’s worded incorrectly but does that mean u get a very mediocre effect ONCE per game? Lmao they might’ve made it even worse than what it already was

Nah, I assume it's once per chase, pretty much when you trigger bloodlust this Perk activates, still awful effect tho
0 -
makes sense. It would’ve been as laughably bad as reworked shadowborn if it only worked once per game.

The perk never really did much of anything, because survivors would still hear the chase music and killers can already mindgame their red stain at tiles.
The one benefit is I guess you could hit BL1, get undetectable, then drop chase and catch someone else off guard. But with only 20 seconds and needing to hit BL1 this isn't an efficient use of time.

I mean, you would just be wasting time at that point if you spent the previous chase gaining bloodlust just to drop the chase and try finding someone else…

Yeah, pretty much.
I do know some people managed to use it effectively when the perk first released, but that was as far as its usefulness went.
0 -
Eh. I'll try it on the PTB, but I doubt it will be much better.
There are much better ways to get undetectable than this, using Bloodlust as a trigger condition is far more inefficient than just using Unforeseen or something lol.
Imo Bloodlust as a trigger condition just doesn't work in general

Yes you would. But it's the only "benefit" this version has over the previous one.

The current live one gives you undetectable while you have bloodlust, no duration. There really isn't anything new to try really.
0 -
they nerfed the best perk in the game.
0 -
Yeah but now it will still work for a bit if you drop chase and go for someone else. But I'm like 99% sure it's still not going to be worth using
0 -
Yea, I think you're right
0 -
I honestly like this concept of the perk now, it's like how it was back in 2017 but gives undetectable instead,
Perk could use some buffs though
I do honestly think about putting this on sadako as she doesn't lose bloodlust when demanifest/manifest during chase

Seems like the intent it to allow you to break off from a bad chase and try to stealth up to another survivor? However yeah, seems a little lacklustre...
Might be OK on small hard to see killers like Chucky or Xeno for hiding your red light?
Maybe decent on teleport killers like Unknown, Sadako, Dredge and Freddy if you know you're being taken on a bad chase, you can get Undetectable and port away?
However yeah, outside of that, struggle to see it.

I've waited so long for them to buff this perk and this is such an absolutely garbage change. How do you look at a perk that you know is never used and it's finally time to do a pass on it and you just do this?
Bloodlust to trigger is just a concept that doesn't work in general but even if you wanted to do it this way the undetectable would have to last for 60 seconds to give you time to find another survivor and even then the perk is still bad just accomplishes what the perk is kinda trying to do.

Bloodlust 1 takes 15 seconds of no power, no breaking pallet, not M1 hits to trigger.
0 -
I know the perk would still be bad then that's just the bare minimum it would take to sometimes get a hit with it.
The perk really needs to do something entirely new.
0 -
I realized I misread you statement on 60 seconds being how long undetectable should last and not you saying it takes 60 seconds for bloodlust to trigger.
0 -
Popping in here to confirm that, yes, the effect of Beast of Prey will trigger each time you gain tier 1 of Bloodlust.

It's not nerfed at all. But it still is pretty bad.
0 -
Ngl, that one is hilarious.
🤣

God tier rework. They added a niche for this perk that is so bad you would be better off not using anything at all and just playing normally.
