M1 killers

Should M1 killer have Enduring and Spirit Fury as base?

Practically all m1 killers are relying on these two perks, so in addition to be low-mid tier killers they can only use half of their perkslots to experiment and express their individual playstyle.

Would this change make these killer OP?

Edit: if you down vote I please state your disagreement so we can learn and profit from your input.

    I'd love to not have those 2 Perks stuck in my build anymore, but standard? Ehhhh...

    Plus the selection of "M1 Killers" is a tad broad, no?

    For example, i don't think Shape needs such a buff.

    Well if you don't want those perks in your build anymore the chase mechanic itself has to change or we have to wait and hope that those underperforming killers will get a rework some day.

    But because they are not meme bad the rework will either never come or if the entire game gets a complete overhaul/sequel.

    Right now, the best chance to get those perks out of your build would be, to make them base for those killers.

    I agree, a Shape don't need such a buff, but anyone who halfway played the game seriously could easily tell which killers could really benefit from this change.

    If you want to make a more scientific approach just take the data, scan for the killers who are using these perks mostly 60-80% and have a subpart killrate (below 50%)

    My numbers are arbitrary and testing would show the real numbers.

    But this would be something that could be done fast, wouldn't alter the game too much and would help those killers without extreme changes.

    As long as those scans would be from high ranks, that's good.

    "Wraith OP" was once a thing after all, and that claim reflects well on low ranks.


    I'd finally be able to run Bamboozle though! 🤗

    Imo, yep. They break pallets all day every day, and go through loops, so I would absolutely no doubt recommend it. I run it on Legion, Wraith, Plague (and many more) and they all are really smooth in chases.

    That's not really the fix they need as it's more of a band-aid. The problem with all the M1 killers is that pallets and windows are just too strong and numerous. This is why "generally" the only viable killers are the ones that can counter looping.

    Don't think it should be base kit, I use Bamboozle and Fire Up rather, maybe Brutal Strength, a super OP action speed build, like super strong Trapper.
