Borrowed time not always activating

Hi,


Either i am doing something wrong or the perk gets bugged. I had several matches where half the time borrowed time did not activate after unhooking a survivor.

then the following match it doesn't work at all until i remove the perk and equip it back again.


does anyone else have this?

    You know Borrowed Time only triggers if you unhook a survivor INSIDE the killer's terror radius, don't you?

    Some killers can literally move around with no terror radius at all (Wraith, Ghostface, Myers, Pig etc.) which doesn't allow Borrowed Time to activate.

    Have you been in the Terror Radius of the Killer? Especially important for Killers like Pig, Wraith or Ghostface, who hide their Terror Radius. So being near the Killer is not enough, you need to be in their Terror Radius (which is dumb, but well...).

    I know that, and the killer it literally right next to the hooked survivor, and not cloaked or anything and still the perk doesnt activate.

    Insidious is also a thing.

    Did you hear the killer's terror radius? The perk Insidious would let the killer camp without a terror radius as long as he doesn't move.

    If you heard a terror radius: Had all generators been repaired? There has been a bug not too long ago where Borrowed Time didn't work in the endgame.

    This is why borrowed time should be based on meters and not the killers terror radius. It's suppose to be an anti-camping perk but there are a handful of killers who can still camp and BT won't do anything. Well all of them can bypass it with insidious.

    I would change it to where BT activates if the killer is within 28 meters of the hook when the survivor is saved.
