Franklin's Demise

Can we see a change to this perk to make it less toxic? Maybe instead of dropping the item we can increase the percentage that it deteriorates the items charge instead. Sometimes you just need that "ohshoot" key when you play solo with the way matchmaking is.

    Using a perk isn't toxic if you want Franklin's demise nerfed cause it hurt your feelings that you lost your beloved item then decisive strike should be nerfed too. It hurts my feelings also when I hug someone just to get backstabbed.

    I think it's good, I mean if a killer decides to not dodge a lobby full of whatever items the survivors bring and decides to use a perk slot to counter said items I think it's fair game really. In general I don't think killers use it that often, unless survivors are stocked with gear. As survivor you can just go back and pick it up. As opposed to losing the item completely if it slowly deteriorates and for the perk to be decent/balanced that way it would need to deteriorate a good chunk of it, I think it's actually better that way, isn't it? Potentially keeping the item. Just remember when you got hit at and get it.

    And plus, if you didn't bring an item and someone else did.... YOINK! :) lmao

    No.

    We allready have perk that you never see in games, it's called Overwhelming Presence. It's allready burried in the Fog of Worthless Stuff.

    Absolutely not! I play survivor about half the time and I 1000% think this is a reasonable perk. This is just another example of something being labelled as toxic just because it is inconvenieces someone. Is it annoying when you drop your item? Yes! But it's not destroyed. You can still pick it back up. Or you can find another chest. Items are completely optional so allowing a killer to knock it out of your hand is perfectly acceptable in my book.
