Tinkerer perk

Is the tinkerer perk worth taking? I dunno if I’m utilising it correctly, but when I get the notification icon to tell me a generator is at 85% I’m never able to get anywhere near it in time even at mid ranges? The generator finishes before the notification icon from the perk has even disappeared. Does it only really work for killers with speed boosts?

    It really is only good on a few killers: Freddy, Nurse, Billy, Spirit?, Oni...

    Yeah if you can't get to a far away gen in under 8 seconds you won't be getting much use out of it.

    I mean even if you don't stop the gen in time you can still take advantage of the zero terror radius. I feel like combined with the killer version of Dark Sense it's pretty decent. I can't think of the name right now

    Only if you're near a survivor though. If you're on the way to the gen and are like at least halfway there or more it would be useful to maybe sneak up on someone leaving that gen.

    If you're further than that though unless they're running straight to you the TR will return before you even spot someone. I use the sneaky part all the time as Nurse for sweet juicy gen grabs so I definitely understand the power behind it, but only if you're already near someone.

    Ah ok, thanks guys. I guess it’s not a perk for me as I started by prestigeing clown and am now playing demogorgon who can’t get there even with a portal nearby doh. I’ll try something else.
