Knockout is op?
You see ... I remember one of my old games as Myers and used a personal build which was: Monitor & Abuse, Infectious Fright, Dark Devotion and Knockout. There were 3 survivors left, I knocked one down with tier 3 and there was no one in my radius of terror with Infectious Fright then the lying survivor suffered Knockout, assuming that when using that perk, they will not see the one who knocks down to a maximum of 16 meters, well the The thing is, I didn't knock him down and I decided to wait until they picked him up but to my surprise nobody did and they were looking for him until he bled to death, the truth is I always wondered if that perk needs some nerf or was it pure bad luck that he didn't have found it...

It can be pretty powerful only if you are up against all solo survivors.

If survivors can find a hatch, they can locate a down survivor.

Annoying to go against as a solo, but I think it's fine where it's at.

There are few times that it has happened to me as a survivor but it is not a perk widely used by killers such as Pop Goes the Weasel or Barbecue & Chilli, although it serves a lot to sluggear being Billy, Bubba, Myers, Nurse, etc can counteract by wearing empathy or unbreakable.

Thanks for the last tidbit of information. I wasn't sure if any of the aura reading perks counter it, but it's so rare to go against that I don't bother preparing for it.

You're welcome. also Ash Williams perk "Buckle Up" may also work, but I'm not sure because almost few use Knockout for Slugging or just Trolling.

Eh, I think it's ok where it's at. It's kind of a scummy perk IMO, but there are far better perks for killers to use.

Nah, I think it's an ok perk, pair it up with third seal and now it's great.

Only when a God Nurse has it, otherwise it's relatively fine.

I had a survivor send me a bunch of messages (Xbox) after the match PISSED at me because he thought I was hiding instead of going to go save him.
Brah, the Bubba had Knockout, I have no idea where the hell you are. Instead of sending me a bunch of messages yelling at me for not picking you up, maybe you should have figured out that no one could see anyone's downed image and sent me a message with your damn location :D
