The perk pool is now truly way to big for this level of RNG
I'm not here to complain about the grind as a whole. But once you have ALL the perks unlocked. Switching to a new Survivor as a main or wanting to test out a new killer or one you don't play often is starting to make me just want to stay with my already P3 killers with the perks I like on them already.
Speaking of Prestige this also hampers the already limited urge to do so. No one wants to see their Ruin 3 or Self Care 3 go down the drain just for bloody outfits when there is literally a chance that their next chance to even get ruin one is at a sink of over a 1million blood points.
I do have two fix ideas for this and wanted to run it by the General Discussion first.
First: Lets add a new section to the shop for prestige characters only. Where you can for double the BP price of the base Blood Web cost. Just buy perks out right, But ONLY up to the prestige you have unlocked. So Prestige one can only buy rank 1 perks. P2=Rank 2, P3=Rank 3. Of course you still couldn't skip ranks. If you wanted to buy rank 2 of Self care, You would need to buy rank 1 first.
Second choice: Add a special Blood Web for people who prestige which ONLY has your unlocked perks, which the entity starts active no matter your current level.
Both of these ideas still have the grind, but makes it SOOOOOO much more bearable. So anyways what are your thoughts?

Or you could remove perk levels altogether. Would also solve a lot of the perk grind.

But I've had ALOT of people yell at me over the internet that would "ruin" the game. Because what is the point of playing if not for the grind lol.

I think they have gradually made some of the tier 1 and 2 perks more useful and this helps with the grind a lot. A lot of them now work the same as tier 3 but just for a shorter duration. I do agree though its a pain to go through a whole prestige and not get what you want. But I have to be honest having done so much grinding in this game I would be annoyed if they suddenly made it easier to get what has taken me the last two years.

I mean. That is much more of a personal thing. I don't think it would make you stop playing if suddenly it was made easier.

I think it is our own fault, if we want any killer on P3. After all we get through the prestiges a higher number of rare addons. So I think it's fair, if you have to grind a lot of time.

But it is WAY to much right now. You missed the part where I'm okay with the grind. But not at this level. It is starting to boarder on Bad Game Design. Also the Prestige "buff" to rare addons is hardly note worthy enough to toss away a full build of great perks.

I'd be happy if the devs would let us have 3 perks in the bloodwebs from which we could unlock 2 per web (at the higher levels, maybe starting at lvl 35 or 40).

Count me in as somebody who would not complain if the perk levels were just removed entirely. Anotherwords, I don't need to find a perk 3X to get it at full strength - just purchase it once at it's full strength power.
We've got way too many perks in this game to try and grind out all their levels.

@Fab did you have time to post up your idea?

This would be the best attempt imo. Only thing I want with that: some kind of compensation. Something like legacy, but obviously different. Maybe that glowing from the last event? Idk, just anything so it doesn't feel like a massive waste of time to be one of the players who p3lvl50 with all perks unlocked all perks before the grind cut off happened.

In my opinion, if Bloodpoint gains were better adjusted (raised) we wouldn't worry as much about Bloodwebs, but as it stands it's pretty pitiful without Bloody Party Streamers and/or Double Bloodpoint Events...

The grind is pointless, the RNG aspect is pointless, and the perk tiers are pointless to anyone beyond rank 13 or devotion 1. What is the point in making me grind through millions of blood points for one perk that I then have to get to tier 3 when I already have that perk on multiple other killers? What does it add to the game? We're not paying to play by the month like an MMO. I'm not playing because of the grind. I'm playing in spite of it. What purple or red rank killer or survivor is willingly going into a trial with tier 1 or 2 perks? "Oh man better put on Ruin 1 to get that fat 2% regression against these red rank survivors."- Nobody

This is why I haven't unlocked all the perks, some of them belong with the Killer they start with and should never be added to the taught perk pool because they're not all that good and just clog up the blood web for better perks.
