Rancor Rework Idea
I’m going to be honest: Rancor is not a good Perk. It’s a very bad Perk. In exchange for one Survivor getting a mini Dark Sense, you get to kill them with NOED during the endgame—assuming you even catch them by that point. It’s a low-reward Perk that forces you to have a really stupid playstyle to get the satisfaction of mori-ing the Obsession—completely ignore them before the endgame, then mega-tunnel them during it. I don’t think it’s well-designed, so I’d like to re-design it.
Rancor
You become obsessed with one Survivor. Each time a generator is completed, the Obsession can see your aura for 5/4/3 seconds. Each time a generator is completed, all Surivvors’ locations are revealed to you for 3 seconds.
Each time a Survivor who is not the Obsession is hooked for the first time and is killed or sacrificed, gain a token.
1 token: Decreases Obsession’s repair, heal, and sabotage speed by 5%.
2 tokens: The Obsession’s breathing becomes 25% louder.
3 tokens: Disables the Obsession’s ability to see the auras of other Survivors and vice versa.
4 tokens: The next time the Obsession enters the injured state, they will be inflicted with the Broken status effect for 30/45/60 seconds.
5 tokens: Obsession suffers from the Exposed status effect.
6 tokens: Grants the ability to kill the Obsession.

Imo it's a sort of sidegrade to Bitter Murmur: you see everyone instead of only those near the gen and in the endgame you get to oneshot and mori the obsession instead of a prolonged aura reading on everyone.

uhh this perk would only activate if 3 people are dead if they went live with this.
That's pretty ######### stupid.

That's pretty [BAD WORD] stupid.
3 hooks per person, unless someone dcs.
Which still does not make this change better, as reward for not camping is miniscule

Yeh, you get 6 tokens but it takes so long to get them, might as well leave it the old rancor.Sarief said:@Zavri said:

Rancor isn’t “cool”. It’s even more gimmicky than the Killer it’s tied to.

Well i disagree. It's quickly become my favorite perk. Stop with the 'Killers got something fun, so lets make it useless' crap. It's getting old.

Gonna be honest, if you ask me to buff any weak perk, I bet I can make a good change that won’t be a problem.

Change obsession killer perks to ALWAYS obsession someone with obsession perks (there’s a slim chance it’ll be someone with nothing, even though someone else has DS). If no one has an obsession perk, just make it be the first person attacked can then be mori’d. It’d make it feel less personal. Also, if there’s no obsession, rancor will slow down gate opening till someone is executed. (Does not mean multiple one hits, that’s consumed instantly)

This is to give the killer 2 different outcomes. 1) kill and punish DS etc. person is obsession. 2) no one has DS, no one is obsession, so it becomes an overall good endgame perk. Additionally, to give the unlucky first downed guy a chance, not executing him gives a slowdown, encouraging hooking him instead. But still able to be mori’d for the daily.

So instead of NOED Lite it's now Devour Hope Lite?
Because as we all know Devour Hope is an extremely reliable and easy to use perk.1 -
So you're basically a DS user.

Rancor is a new core perk to counter DS and just ignore a player the entire match knowing that they are already dead. Best if used with STBFL as you won't be hitting them any time soon.0

HINT HINT rancor can be used to hostage the game in a rather clever way, and if your not doing this when you can you arent using it right.
If you down the obsession with 1 generator left leave him slugged. he becomes a hostage against the team, The moment they pop that last gen you can outright murder, and previous to that you can bet at least one hero boy will try to swoop in and top off his downed heal. Every time i've had the opportunity to do this I get either 3-4 kills. 3 cause well hatch is still broken.0 -
Rancor FEELS unfair and broken to the survivor singled out by it, and while that sucks for them, and I like the concept, it's not a particularly useful perk. Not to mention any smart survivor can maneuver around it without too much issue.0

Wait under pallet and that's it.

Rancor is an early game perk because once the obsession sees your aura after the first gen they just DC.
Also it's a good perk on Freddy because they won't see your aura if you never sleep them. The problem is the tracking ability of the perk sucks, so you need some other way to find the obsession, which is why I like using it with Bitter Murmur.
