Borrowed Time Effect for Successful Escape Attempts

You ever find yourself in that situation where you're getting face camped and exit gates are open? If it was your first hook, you would usually attempt to escape right? Would be nice if that you got that 4% or whatever %, or even deliverance, and you could still have a chance to escape. I would say the timer would be 15 seconds, same as borrowed time tier 1.

    The survivors don't need any buffs, the game is already quite a long distance from balanced.

    Yea, buff survivor unhook even more… you are already recover from exhaustion and get invu frames after unhook and the target priorisation is so that often the unhooked soaks up the hit that the unhooker should have taken.
    And you want even MORE?
    So you can out the open gate and tbag?
    Just stop doing unsafe unhook. Problem solved.

    If exit gates are opened and you got your first hook it just means you'r luck has run out.

    Never said it was guaranteed, you could easily get smacked twice. Maybe it would be better if you didn't get it if the exit gates were open, or if the killer was within around 5 meters of you?

    You. Don't. Deserve. A. Free. Second. Chance. Just. For. Being. Lucky.
    That's all you want, another free second chance to add to the list of free second chances.

    **yeah well if killer could face camp someone for no reason thats a guaranteed loss. Survivors are supposed to get second chances, it's what makes the game fair.

    No you don't deserve any second chances, if you get camped its your own damn fault.
