New Prestige Idea

When you prestige a character you automatically get the 3 unique character perks on all characters. The tier of the perks depends on what prestige. So prestige 1 is tier 1 of all 3 perks, prestige 2 is tier 2, and prestige 3 is tier 3

    Why would it be a horrible idea at least give some feedback

    It's horrible because no one wants to prestige a character 3 times and spend millions of bloodpoints just for a single perk

    From what i understand, the OP wants so when you prestige your starting 3 perks that character comes with get upgraded. So you have some "good" perks to start off with.

    From what I personally understand, the Prestige automatically teaches the survivor's perks to all other survivors.

    For example, if I have a Dwight Prestige 2, all other survivors will have Prove Thyself, Leader, and Bond Tier 2, automatically, no need to get them in the bloodwebs ?

    It's interesting, it can reduce the grind, makes the Prestige more interesting. This can be in addition to how teachable perks work now, or completely replace the way you get them (which makes a big difference).

    This is what I mean, on all other characters the 3 unique perks will be automatically added instead of having to get them from the bloodweb.

    I mean for new players this is pretty neat and a good way to lessen the grind for them. But prestige still needs to give something to old players.. Those who have unlocked most if not everything but dont wanna prestige because they will lose it all. Currently it does nothing (as far as player stats have discovered at least) beyond giving cosmetics.

    I would like for it to do something retroactively to those who have already prestiged but I will take what I can get. And personally I would like for devotion level to give some sort of reward or for rank level to give some sort of reward. But thats just being slightly greedy. For now I will be happy knowing they are working on some sort of prestige reward (at least they mentioned that a few months back).

    Yeah I would really like some devotion rewards even if its just a small shard increase. We'll just have to wait and see what the devs add for the prestige reward, I just want this change because it gives you a reason to prestige and it makes grinding way easier in the long run.

    Yeah I get you, its an interesting way of circumventing a lot of grinding while at the same time encouraging prestiging, without taking a way all of the grinding. Its very good for newer players (I say newer but really anyone with less than 1k hours will get massive benefits from this), and it also encourages getting the dlc's instead of just unlocking the perks in the shrine.

    I just hope for some sort of decent reward for players that have already done the grind and prestigede 3 times. I dont envy the devs having to try and come up with something.

    I mean it could be like 500-1k shards, rewarded retroactively for each prestige level. Or maybe 10-20 auric cells or something similar. Not enough to earn all or even most of the liscensed characters. But enough to earn a couple of them. But I dont know their finanses so that might be a bad idea. Which is why I will just say I dont envy their situation :P

    I've suggested something similar but more so make it so that all perks on the bloodweb are the tier based on your prestige however I acknowledge the flaw with that idea is all your perks would still be T1 at Prestige 1 so therefore the first prestige wouldn't have any benefits to this. Maybe prestige should give a discount with stuff on the bloodweb instead?
