BUFF>BOIL>OVER

PLS FFS IT"S SO BAD. I waited months for the new DLC for this???

"You are a battler and do everything to escape a foe's grasp.
Your struggling effects on the Killer are increased by 25/50/75 %.

You obscure the Killer's ability to see Hook Auras IconHelp auras.png within 10/12/14 metres.

"Buck and Wild,
Swing to be free,
Your hands just can't keep ahold of me."
— Kate Denson's "Boil Over"

Unique to Kate Denson until Level 40, at which point its Teachable version can then be learned and taught to the other Survivors."

It's awful, i got it the first day of release and is probably the worst perk I've ever used, I've tried again and again. On all honesty how NOOB tube do you have to be to not visually spot a hook anyway instead of relying on auras. EITHER WAY it's 14 meters and it would only go away when you're about to walk up to it with a survivor. It's been a waste of my perk slot and time for too long. I'm really annoyed that people are okay with having this being MAP RELIANT and even then the point stated above still stands. Wiggle effects do NOTHING. Please change this trash oh my god...-_-

    Yeah one time I really struggle when I hold a survivor and the next time I dont feel a thing. Makes no sense. Also this perk is the biggest joke they ever made because right before the DLC the 14m not seeing the aura was a standard thing in the game. They removed it and made it into a perk what a joke.

    You know what other perk was joke status and was made by implementing a drawback just to make it? Balanced landing.

    Yeah but in that case I could understand the nerf before the perk. This time it was a lame thing they changed and then put in a perk.

    It should be a way bigger range if they want buff wiggle or wiggle effects. At least 24m

    Boil Over is the worst perk in the game.

    It does nothing to benefit you and only hinders the killer slightly. Killers can easily avoid the sway the perk gives and I cannot think of a time where hiding the hook aura actually helped me as a survivor.

    It really is awful.. I've had Tier 3 used against me and it moved me slightly to the side once on my way to a hook.

    It needs to quicken the effect of struggling off the shoulder by 15%/20%/25% (should take roughly 3secs off the struggle time of around 12secs).. or something like this anyway. Will counter Iron Grasp and be useful in different circumstances.

    I really wonder what made the devs sit there and think "well this is good enough!".

    Do devs have proper playtesters? Is that why Deja Vu and Calm Spirit took so long to buff?

    I know, not for nothing but they sat there useless for almost 2 years, this is worse than Pre buff to Urban Evasion

    It's one of those situational perks. It screwed me over at end game as killer

    Doesn’t mean it’s not utter trash, chances are they would’ve wiggled out anyway

    A buff for a perk that just came out ?
    Man, you're still living the dream.

    Expect it late 2019, if you're lucky, if they have time, if the game is still alive then, if they don't have major issues before it.

    Unlike your other things, I can’t argue back. This is both true and really sad.

    Most perks aren't even that hard to buff in the first place anyway.
    My guess is they're just scared to make it too "hard" for newcomers (Maybe the main issue comes from the fact that FULLY P3 PERKED PEOPLE with PAID content plays against them tho ?) to understand what is happening. Boosting the range of hook hiding (or even making it rather infinite, which would force killers to pay attention to hook placement around) wouldn't be that grevious, and a slight buff on the wiggling strength would be good to have, amongst other stuff.

    Also Vigil was the same thing, remove exhaustion reduction while crouched and instead make it into a perk.

    They buffed Alert close to when it came out, all I asked was that they increase the time the killer’s aura is seen from 3 seconds to 6 seconds and they implemented it in the next patch. Granted it was Horvath himself that saw my suggestion so I probably got lucky.
