Can we buff distortion please?

I feel that the devs should buff distortion because the number of tokens you get is not good enough considering that there is a plethora of killer aura reading perks and addons that could just completely take away your tokens, even more so with Hex: Undying. To be more viable it needs a buff.

    I agree, I feel like distortion should operate similarly to stake out, gaining tokens when inside the killer's terror radius.

    What if .... Time outside of Terror radius (slowly added) and Cleansing Totems added more charges to the Perk?

    Escaping from chases is incredibly easy, so much so that the game gives you escape points after being hit and running away. I do think your idea makes a lot more sense than mine, maybe if you escape a chase without being hit you receive a token. Maybe we can merge our ideas, make it so you receive tokens based on how long the killer takes to catch you in a chase.

    I feel it should slowly fill a token the more Objectives, Chases, etc etc you manage to acquire during the match.

    That’s interesting. I was thinking of having them just increase the tokens to 5 or 7 but honestly I feel like this is a cool concept too. 😃👍🏼

    Distortion definitely needs a buff. It's use is too limited atm and it's not worth a perk slot.

    I have always seen it more as an SWF information perk than "I wanna stay hidden" perk. You only need the 3 tokens to know if killer has BBQ, nurses calling, bitter murmur, undying or a perk that shows aura. So more as a "Hey this thing here is a thing, look out for it" than a ninja perk designed to keep you hidden.
