Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Thanatophobia

when survivors have a toolbox that manipulates the speed of Gen progress, does that defeat the purpose of Thanatophobia? Just went up against the nurse and I experimented a bit where I repaired with and without toolbox and progress and speeds were quite different from what I saw.. idk just curious.

    It will require you to either Eat up more toolbox (If you wanted to save it or not) or stop the gen and save the survivor to remove the debuff. If you planned on using the toolbox anyway then it wouldnt really effect you.

    It's same reason as why Fire Up is bad, numbers are just too low

    I say add 5% to every tier and make sacrificed/killed survivors count towards Thanatophobia!

    If they doubled all the numbers on fire up, I’d use it in a heartbeat

    Thana is nothing more than a placebo, it does basically nothing 
    all you do is complain thanaphobia is pretty good and forces you to use a toolbox

    Or made it 5%, 15%, 25%. A 25% boost would be very noticeable. As it is now, rank 1 Fired Up has a very tiny difference from rank 3 in terms of percieved time. You wouldn't notice the difference between ranks unless you were specifically paying attention for it.

    I think 10/20/30 is the sweet spot here. It would finally have a purpose in endgame builds

    Most rank 1-2 killers that use it go with Sloppy and ir Coultrophobia like @Vankruze said and usually I see it on Huntress, Billy, Nurse, Hag sometimes. But usually it's used more on Nurse/Billy due to the high mobility.

    It doesn't do too much but survivors hate seeing it so they will want to get rid of it ;)
