the most underrated add-on in the game

the blood-amber. it turns every loop with walls into a coldwind loop. no chance for the killer to mindgame you, effectively extending the chase. surprised to see not a lot of people talk about how strong this is, and even more surprised to see not a lot of people using it

    I use it time to time, but I generally use more toolboxes or literally anything else then keys.

    How long can you use that addon? Never really used that before

    Due to the nature of the add-on, you need to bring either a Skeleton Key or a Broken Key, which most people don't know how to use properly. You only get good use of the Add-on from a skeleton key though, which in of itself is so darn rare that you'll likely use a weaved ring to keep it. Finally, if the killer has Franklins or if you use that hatch to escape you lose both the key and the add-on resulting in a net loss of at least (ignoring your other add-on's cost) 13,000 BP.

    So while it can be fun, it's too demanding with its 2 charges per second consumption rate. (Not to mention that it takes 1 charge/second to even start seeing auras. This lets you tap all of 3 seconds on a Broken Key, or 10 seconds on a Skeleton Key.)

    Blood amber is super strong, i agree, but you need to notice couple of things.
    If survivor takes key huge majority of killers take franklin (that's why i use green keys so often, one perk less to worry about), if survivor last second switch, many killers will camp them just for this. Chances of loosing it are just too big and not that many survivors really understand how to use amber efficiently. Also you need specific maps for this little trick. I personally really like the addon, especially because its purple and can be farmed with Ace in your hole. But i think it will stay underused.

    yeah I guess people don't wanna lose their stuff I get that. but I do think its usable on every map other than coldwind (tiles are already see through)

    if what @Peasant said is true 15 seconds on a skeleton key, not including bringing a more charges add-on
