New Perk Rivalry Boil Over VS Dead Man's Switch
I can already tell Survivors will start complaining about Dead Man's Switch cause it's great combo with Artist's Scourge Hook and Ruin. Than there's Killers who are gonna complain about Boil Over cause it's strong in a SWF and combo with Flip Flop and places where you can fall off.

They didn’t nerf it though? From ptb it would have been nerfed by now.

I never used Dead Man's Switch because it seemed a bit bad but now, without the obssession mechanic, it looks better. What do you think about it, it worth it ?
I usually like to play with BBQ, Pain Resonance and Ruin, the last perk depends about the killer and what I already have in my web. Do you think it can suits well for my 4th perk ?

Dead Mans Switch is now a A tier perk, Any killer can run it but it really shines on certain killers:
Doctor
Nurse
Blight
Spirit
Artist
It's no where in the realm of overpowered but it sits beautifully in the balanced and fair category.
Boil Over on the otherhand was probably too buffed, if the reduced the wiggle bonus from 25 to 10 or 15 it would still be good but far less abusable.

Dead Mans would definitely fit the build well, you could even remove ruin for another perk of your choice.
My builds will be generally now:
BBQ
Pain Resonance
Dead Mans Switch
Agitation/Corrupt/Deadlock/STBFL/No Way Out
Pretty much first three will always be used and the fourth is up to which killer i use/ how i feel like playing

"great combo" ... so thats how you call a broken situation?

Great ! Thank's for your advice, I'll try it ;)
Can you explain why it suits more for these killers ?

Nurse, Blight and Spirit all have high mobility so they can get to the gens being worked on quickly.
Artist can shoot crows at gens to force people off from a great distance.
Doctors Static Blast ability can shock people off gens, if running Distressing too it covers a large size of the map.

Both perks are annoying to go against
I played against Wraith in solo q who had Jolt and DMS and it was so painful, we simply were not able to complete a single gen and in the same match I also had wiggle build (ff, boil over, unbreakable, power struggle) and I just gave up on gens and started to attemt to get value from my perks which I did and then wraith gave up on picking me up and bleed me to death, there was also Claudiette with similar build and same happened to her so yeah.
DMS is more useful tho

Neither should have made it to Live.
