Boil Over

Boil over needs a buff! Maybe, you can increase the range of this "blindness" from 14 to 24. It shouldn't be too strong, but please do this! Yes, I know, there's already breakdown and the hook changes, but it's still too easy to see the hooks :(

    It needs one, it's really useless since the range and struggle effects really do nothing.

    When it came out we all thought it made struggling out faster, the sSurvivor equivalent of Iron Grasp, maybe it should do that?

    I'm torn on that. On the one hand, it could be good, and it's a way to buff it without being overpowered and it would have counterplay. On the other hand, the killer can hard counter that by just remembering where the hooks are or by getting lucky and having a hook it in the open. It wouldn't be consistent, is what I'm getting at. Sometimes it'll work and be great, other times it'll do absolutely nothing. Other perks that follow that sort of design (unbreakable, for example) tend not to get used very much. Most people would rather take a sure thing if even if it is a little weaker.


    I don't think it could hurt though. I can't see how that would be abused or break the game.

    You are correct, but while you are here, mymy text box is really bugged out, bad bugged out, if I misspelled anything its because I actually cannot see anything in the text box

    I always felt like the perk needed some sort of wiggle buff. Nothing TOO op or big, but maybe a buff that makes wiggling status quicker? Like say...5/10/15%? Maybe to counter a perk like Iron Grasp and be a replacement to Decisive for people who don’t like the change? (I love the change to DS btw, I’m just vouching for everyone who didn’t like it for once in my life :D )

    Yeah it needs a buff.

    The wiggling is fine, but increase the range of the blind hooks to 12/16/20


    14m at tier III isn't good enough.

    It's funny because for it to block the basement's hooks, the killer literally needs to be on top of the stairs. It definitely needs an increase in range. However, I don't think that a small % to wiggle speed (2 or 3) would hurt.
