Perk: Adrenaline

Adrenaline:

Adrenaline is triggered when the last generator is repaired. Why is the perk triggered when you're carried by the killer?

This gives some negative points

  • The killer sees that the survivor has adrenaline (through the display on the left)
  • If you are rescued from the hook, you no longer have any advantage from adrenaline, since the perk was already triggered in the situation before.

Is that right, or should we change it?

    "Adrenaline is on hold if you are disabled at the moment it should take effect and will activate when freed."

    Thats at the bottom of the perk description

    ps: if you want to change a perk, you should start from the trash tier (adrenaline is tier1-tier2)

    Yes, it's a powerful perk, but only in certain situations. I just wanted to know if you've had similar experiences. I was just wondering, and I'd never experienced that before.

    I don't think the perk should be deactivated when a survivor is carried by the killer. The perk is taken to get an advantage, in this situation you don't get an advantage and can't change anything. In my opinion, adrenaline should be triggered after the hook rescue :)

    After the rescue and not while wearing. But like I said it's just my opinion :)

    It's arguably the strongest perk in the game, so I'd say to not fix it. I hate seeing people run it and yet I run it myself, it's that stupid strong.

    Adrenaline activates the first moment after the Exit Gates are open and you are FREE TO MOVE (running, walking, crawling, performing an action you can cancel). If you are DISABLED (hooked, being carried), it will be PUT ON HOLD, and will activate THE MOMENT YOU ARE FREED.
    Why the actual hell is this even a post? Did you not read the wiki?

    It states that Adrenaline will heal you if you're on the hook and it should've activated. It also states that this IS TRUE AND DOES APPLY IF YOU ARE ON THE KILLER'S SHOULDER, MEANING THAT IF YOU'RE BEING CARRIED, IT WILL NOT TAKE EFFECT UNLESS YOU WIGGLE OUT. IF THE KILLER HOOKS YOU, IF YOU WERE BEING CARRIED WHEN ADRENALINE ACTIVATED, THEN IT WILL NOT TAKE EFFECT.
    Just read the damn wiki.

    I think it's just a misunderstanding. Adrenaline can trigger during pick up, which wastes this perk. Pick up is this state of limbo that no one can do anything until it finishes, which explains why it doesn't trigger

    It does work but takes effect only if you manage to struggle out.
