BT will dethrone DS

DS was considered the best survivor perk of the game with its recent nerf which was very good, after 4.7.0 update goes live BT will become the strongest survivor perk of the game.

    I genuinely don't see survivors running DS unless they really don't want to get tunneled or want a guaranteed end game escape chance. Idk it really seems bad now outside of end game scenarios.

    Borrowed Time is really good but I think Iron Will and Deadhard are better

    Zero reason not to run new BT - It has no requirement and no downsides.

    Just don't camp.

    DS + new bt will be the free end game escape meta

    I think you people are overreacting. (unless you main Ghostface, Freddy, or Wraith.)

    The duration is reduced so you're really only going to feel it if you are in fact proxy camping or face camping. It is a buff and it is much stronger now, but it's not going to turn into any kind of oppressive meta.

    Bt will always be strong. It's the only perk to counter camping.

    BT doesn't do anything new except stop camping stealth killers and Freddy. That's all it's going to do, and it's still nowhere close to the strongest survivor perk. Adrenaline, DS, iron will and sprint burst are all much stronger.

    That's something that existed with old BT, I'm not sure what you're complaining about.

    People should have been running BT even before the change. I just hope this doesn't encourage hook farming.

    If so, good! Perhaps we will see more actual teamwork and safe rescues.

    I haven't felt too much of a difference with it on the PTB if I am being honest. Less of Freddy camping a hook but that's been about it.

    Honestly Lucky Break has been a lot more of a concern. It's stupid good especially on maps where tracking is hard visually like coldwind- but what makes it feel OP is that if you take a medkit you can just like.....bank the rest of it for the next time you get hit.

    This is a great change and people need to accept it. Our lord and savior BHVR has taught me one thing, Freddy sucks donkey butts. With this new welcome change, when I go against Freddy's who decide to camp, I can welcome them with a nice warm BT and have a nice stroll to victory away from them while you filthy DS peasants walk into your lockers for the duration of your timer. I will bask in the glory of 100% safe unhooks and continue to farm my teammates no matter the killer.

    Why would unhooking with BT while the killer is chasing be a bad play. There are any reasons why it would be a good play.

    That perk SHOULD BE 8 seconds not 12

    Noed, ruin, devour hope and all those "tryhard" killer perks? Aren't they small pp killer build? If you say no then you are most definitely a killer main.

    That's fine if bt activates 1 either I was camping or 2 I was tunneling the 9only situation where it's not is if they were blocking me and with it being 10s now its bearable
