Lithe is so under used

LIthe is a good perk and under used. But they're probably never going to nerf dead hard because why would they? Most exhaustion perks are just second chance perks for survivors.

Lithe is my favorite exhaustion perk too but map spawns and the killer your facing as it can render the perk either unusable or actively detrimental to attempt(Vaulting VS Pyramid Head for example).

While very well designed its just too niche to be general use and is a worse niche exhaustion perk then Balanced Landing.

DH is annoying when you don't even see the DH but they still make the sound as if you downed them. Same with the new pallet validations. But DH is just their best second chance perk

I never said being niche wasn't good just that its as niche as Balanced Landing(Aka your equally as likely to get them to work) but its objectively weaker the Balanced Landing as Lithe lacks a secondary effect while Balanced Landing does have a secondary effect.

I feel like Lithe would be more viable if it had a secondary effect like: "Your rushed vaults are always fast vault while not exhausted."

I don't like lithe for the same reason I don't like dh (b4 validation) I always seem to be exhausted on the ground. Haven't bothered using DH since hit validation. Sprint burst is the way for me

It's a great perk until you run into a very laggy killer that strikes the window you were at two seconds earlier and you go down. I think that's the problem with it. Maybe they need to add validation to Lithe. That's been my experience with it as much as I like it. Fast vault, get the speed boost for about 1.5 seconds and your exhausted The killer swings at the window and you're down lol

Lithe is amazing. But dead hard exists so who gives a f. Meta slaves out here.

I wouldn't say its underused when you could just use the third health state perk, ie dead hard instead

I don't like it. I played this game plenty with no exhaustion and if dh and sb weren't a thing I would just go no exhaustion again.

If you like it and get benefit from it, keep using it.

It is just one of the perks that I personally don't like running.

I'd agree with this if my soloQ teams didn't drag the killer to my gen right as I use it in most games. No, im not going to walk around the map to conserve it. Lithe is a good middle ground between busted and frustrating

I used to like Lithe, but then I discovered perk called Dead Hard

In order to get any use out of lithe you have to vacate the tile you are playing. I'm not always going to immediately leave the jungle gym that I'm at just because I vaulted. Thats why I don't like it.

Love Lithe, favorite exhaustion perk since i started playing.

Lithe has always been my favorite exhaustion perk and I will still argue it's as good, if not better than every other exhaustion perk. But then again, I'm also one of the few people who thinks dead hard isn't any better than the rest of the exhaustion perk and prior to them providing the hit validation, it was actually the WORST exhaustion perk

IMO DH for distance is the only funktion DH should have. All other exhaustion perks in essence give you distance when you satisfy their condition, be it vaulting a window, smacking the killer with a pallet, dropping some distance or even being conservative with your running, they all give you 150% speed for a couple of seconds. And if DHs only power was gaining distance on command, as long as you are wounded, well, than I would be fine with that.

But DH is the ONLY perk in the entire game that gives you i-frames, and they are very, very frustrating. When someone uses their perk, gains some distance and if out of your clutches, yeah, that can be annoying, but whatever, thats just their build. And when someone is using DH to make a run for a window thats somewhat ok for me. But its the countless times where the i-frames just save someones butt who just shouldn't get away from you. Who made some pretty bad mistake, and then i-frames through your hit/eats your power and leaves you with nothing for your hard work.

DH also allows you stuff like dashing through a killer who body blocks a door or through Trappers beartraps, it invalidates so many core elements of the game and is so extremely versatily: distance on command, i-frames on command, dash through traps on command, dash through the killer on command. Most of these instances could be a seperate perk and would still be considerd viable, but that they are all rolled into ONE perk and apparently talking about this as a problem and just weak killer talking "just git gud bro" just baffles my mind.

The talk of "they nerfed old Undying/Ruin because it was overused by 80%" is of course dumb. There should be no revenge at your mind when nerfing something or some nerfing "we lose one thing, I lose one thing". Things need to be nerfed when they step vastly out of line, not because you can't think of something else to nerf or whatever, but this perk, it is truly overused.

Usually when one option is vastly picked more often instead of others in its class and practically becomes a no-brainer/autopick, unless your build has something other in mind, then this usually is a good indication that said option is too strong. Borrowed Time has a similar high pickrate to DH, maybe a bit less, but here its born out of nessecity. Being tunneled out of the game without any chance of escape plain sucks, so it makes sense that a lot of survivors want some kind of protection against that, and while some people argue against certain (miss)usages of BT (bodyblocking without fear of retaliation instead of just getting away), I guess pretty much no one is arguing against its base idea. But dayuuum, playing your chase perfectly and then having your hard work taken away from you, just at the press of a button, and NOT even messing up, thats just disheartening. DH might be "fair", as in "used as intended" in years with the hit validation, but as its buggy state was somewhat balanced, it now shows how utterly unbalanced its core principle is, no that it works everytime.
