So i'm using Whispers on huntress because i have no good perks for her because iron maiden won't show up and well i feel like Whispers should work like Spine chill if your looking at a survivor it goes off.

    Except it doesn't give you any information other than "some amount of survivors within 32 meters." That is barely useful.

    The Terror Radius tells you how close the killer is and often tells you who the killer is, so you can not only prepare for their arrival, but for their power as well.

    Whispers kind of blows except at the very beginning and during hatch. I havent run it in a very long time

    It's a nice getting started perk for when you want to find survivors. I enjoy it, but I've gotten to the point where I just kinda have a built in Lethal Pursuerer at the spawn. After using whispers and LP for awhile... it just kinda sticks with you

    Oh wow, I actually think that's a great idea. My only gripe is make it to where it can't go off when you're extremely close or else you'd be able to pinpoint their exact location.

    But yeah, Whispers is pretty much only good on Doctor which blows.

    on slower killer i like it because survivors naturally have more time to hide

    Whispers help find survivors early. You know survivors on gens, so when whispers lit, go to closest gen.

    Whispers help to not was time looking for survivors, if they are not in the area. You see hot gen and whispers are off, you know no one there so kick gen and go somwhere else.

    Whispers help find last survivor. When you kill 3 survivors and close hatch, whispers will show you which gates last one wants to open.

    It tells you that someone is somewhere within 32 metres of your location. It helps for checking on gens in early game and helps in endgame to get the last Survivor. Other than that, I'd say it's overrated.

    Whispers is incredibly useful, if it lights up there's someone near, if not then no one's there and you don't have to search the area like a silly fool. It only gets better the less survs there are too

    That would be op af. Plus Whispers is already a very good perk, it helps not waste time in empty areaas and with experience and practice you can use it to "echolocate" survivors.

    In the beginning of the match and end is where it shines the most. Being able to find survivors right away is huge. Mid game it tells you which gens to check. End game if you close the hatch on the last survivor you are basically given the 4k

    Whispers is good as is. When people don't find it useful initially it's because it's got a higher skill cap than some other perks. Consider it to be like sprint burst - easy to use badly, takes a while to really learn how to use it optimally, and once you do it's one of the strongest perks in the game.
