Fair Decisive Strike Nerf
Add a penalty for being the Obsession to the description of the Decisive Strike.
Something like a 5% decrease to all actions if you are the Obsession, so there’s some associated drawback with the perk.

Come on, that's like nerfing NOED and calling it a day, in a way that now it prolongs attack CD by 5%.
Buff anti-tunneling aspects of DS and nerf the dumb/bold plays aspects of it and it'll be great healthy perk.

The drawback is if you’re not picked up within 60 seconds of being unhooked, you’ve wasted a perk slot.

😞 another person trying to nerf ds. Ds doesn’t need a nerf, if you can counter a perk It doesn't need a nerf. If that sounded mean I didn’t mean to make it sound that way.

you cant counter it if they have unbreakable

DS already has its disadvantages. Just faced a Wraith and a Ghostface who went against 3 of us with DS, 2 of us in the GF game and both of them never even got DS’d and 4k’d/3k’d. It’s not that hard to avoid. If you don’t want to avoid it, then take the stun and continue on with your chase.

If they dont make DS to desactivate while or go faster the timer while
You heal other person.
You are repairing gens.
You are interacting with killer belongings.
Etc
Basically if you are not running, walking, being healed, stand by, vaulting ir dropping pallets you are not being tunneled (ANtIMOmEntuM perk bullshit I know) timer should go faster or even disappear.

DS doesn't guarantee you'll start the match as the obsession. I don't run DS or any obsession perks but I've started as the obsession 5 matches in a row while my 3 teammates are running DS. Adding a penalty of any kind doesn't work if they aren't guaranteed to be the obsession over someone not running any obsession perks.

Ok, but DS in a locker is absolute BS. Scott Jund has suggested a great change in his latest video on "the small pp build" of unbreakable and DS.

DS doesn't really need a nerf. Yes, it's a crutch perk and there's no skill in letting yourself get picked out of a locker just to use it (which usually causes you to be tunneled down anyway). Just don't go after the person who just got unhooked if you're so afraid of it.
I've never understood the whole mindset of "omg I'm so scared of DS ;-; ... so lemme just go after the person who just got unhooked and let them eat dirt (even if they don't even have DS) :D" or "I hate DS, so ima tunnel and pick them up and proceed to complain because I only had the hots for this survivor." The game isn't fun for us when we have to chew on rocks and grass because you dunno how to just leave someone alone after being unhooked or when we don't even get a chance to play because you just tunnel us out of existence (hence why most people even bring DS).
If you really dunno how to track another survivor, that's not our fault you ain't got the skill to find anyone.
If we're on the subject of nerfing crutch perks though... NoEd? Hm? Sounds fair to nerf that in exchange for a DS nerf.

DS being used as a defensive perk is entirely fine, that's the good part about DS.
DS being used as an offensive perk is entirely NOT fine and that's the part that needs to be changed.
