Survivor Perks / Not being Character wide

Hey guys,

I was musing over the fact that the survivors generally get to a point where eventually they just become reskins, you level up a char, get the teachables etc and you have 5-6 characters with same perks and it's just what offering you have or what visual aspect of survivor you want to play.

How do you think it would go down, if maybe only one perk could be transferred to another survivor but the other two are character specific and can only be used on that particular character, so if you want to play a healing build you'd pick Claudette, a team gen build Dwight etc.

This could benefit the killer strategy wise, but yeah I like the survs as having more identity than just a reskin.

    Interesting, this wouldnt require much coding either

    My main question with regards to this is "Is it too late to make such a big change to the Survivor side of things?"

    This has been discussed many times, the problem is you don't then have meta perks you end up with meta characters, the one which is considered the best with the perks available is all you would see.

    The only way I see around it is to give set bonuses base to character, like Claudette botany is 5% faster, meg Q&Q recharges 10% faster, Jake sabo is 5% faster.

    Mainly the perks which aren't so meta on chars but can give just a little but more for using them.

    That kills what survivor I want to play, leaving Claudette everywhere to help run self care better

    What if self care was a standard generalised perk and Claudette had something different? I do agree it's very much a case of is it too late but still raises a question I think. Just don't like how the end game of the survs is just skin swap city
