The only problem I have with BBQ and Chilli

Is the actual aura reading. You can hide from the killer all you want only to get punished by teammates that get caught. I never liked aura reading in this game. Its like using a cheat to find survivors you otherwise cant find. Specially the Wraith addons. Cant hide from that no matter what you try.

    Dead by Daylight has aura's and perks that grant you the ability to see them.
    It's not cheating, it's not "wall hack" it is an integral part of the game that the developers intended.
    Aura's will always be in the game and are here to stay, some older perks are having aura reading added to them soon too so expect more killers to find you via seeing your aura even if you're running Urban Evasion and Premonition to hide on the edge of the map etc.

    With the change to gens and Survivor aura, it's a lot less useful now. MUCH easier to hide from the aura read now. Take a couple seconds off your gen to properly position yourself, the Killer has a second or so when hooking for you to do this, then get back to it after counting 4-5 seconds for safety's sake. Not too difficult.

    If you're caught out in the open, walk in some random directions before heading back to where you were going. The only time you are in any danger is if you're caught out in that sweet spot just beyond the unreadable range, and it's a Billy. Then you probably better hope your juking skills are really good if he has a nice path to your location.

    3 seconds
    The aura reading starts during the hook animation. Converting it effectivly into 3 seconds.

    Right now, survivors can hide perfectly behind gens. This shouldn´t be possible. Since it defeats the purpose of the perk. That´s why killers camp. Since they can´t see auras and have to assume that the survivors are close by.

    BAHAHAHAHA
    the perk was added because survivors were crying about killers camping, yes there are still campers, and yes some of them are dumb enough to use this perk while camping, but it dosnt change the facts, survivors were crying about camping, so the perk was added, and it definitely helped with getting more killers to stop camping, and now survivors are crying to get it nerfed, well, if it gets nerfed, have fun with even more camping killers, thats all i have to say.

    The aura reading is only a problem if you have a habit of placing yourself just outside of the edge where you'd not show up (As that puts you right on the very edge of Nurse blink range)

    If you have good positional and game awareness, this perk wouldn't be an issue for you.

    I have never had any issues playing against BBQ and Chili. The survivors have alot of counterplay when it comes to the aura reading. Hide behind a gen, get within 40 meters of the killer, make your movements unpredictable, etc. It really is not that bad.

    Welp, guess you're going to hate the new Bitter Murmurs (if it comes out as described).
    Just imagine all the BBQ Bitter Billys coming out to play.

    I hated B&C at first as I didn't quite understand it. now i'm not bothered by it at all, nor nurses calling which is equally as powerful. I don't agree with Scratched Mirror Myers tho - that ######### Is broken :chuffed:

    which is funny because Scratched Mirror really isn't that good on most maps.

    It's probably because I don't come across it too often that's all - im sure i'd be over it by now otherwise :D

    Sure, but what should survivors do, wait one second after a hook and then count to 3? No, just count to 4 when somebody is hooked.

    Don't spread more salt around this perk than what it already has!
    It encourages killers NOT to camp, camping problem solved!
    To bo honest I'm more worried about the new bitter murmur change than this.

    You guys are in for a rough time when the mid chapter patch comes at the end of July, BBQ won't be the only perk to offer aura reading anymore. A lot of perks are getting changed to offer it and for a much longer period of time and range.
