Scared of perk overhaul
During last year devs kinda shew that they are not very good at balancing game. Boil over got buff that make it abusable and uncounterable, annoying in some maps, got nerfed twice. Boon CoH was introduced, needed nerf and then a not really needed second nerf. Julie's mixtape got reworked and nerfed a week later. Overzelaus or how is it called getting rework one week after release. Legion's and Ghostface rework was so minor, that they are still hardly relying on add ons. New maps have busted loops and some infinites. Dead man switch was buffed from niche perk to extremely oppressive meta, making solo queues even more painfull. Yes, we will see. But hope devs understand that this update will be a huge step forward and defienetly on of most important one. Will either keep game alive or will kill it entirely. Hope devs understand that solo qeues need massive quality of life changes.

I'm also really trepidatious about it, but not for your bizzare and wrong reasons. I'm concerned that they're nerfing every regression perk with nominal compensatory buffs.

Let’s say I'm cautiously optimistic.
Dead Man's Switch is just so good, because it is combined with SH:PR witch let's it basically auto-proc at least once. Once you know the killer has DMS you just need to decide what you do after someone gets hooked and then commit. I'm fine with that. Maybe they should remove the block when one of 2 or 3 people leaves a Gen.
I use Mindbreaker on Myers, because I hate people with SC and SB to notice me from 36m and run away before I can stalk. I also like Object although I think it's a bit underwhelming.
This is also my biggest fear....

I'm a bit scared, but quite more curious and relaxed. The thing is, the outcome is already set. Someone will complain. There is nothing, that can be done about it.
Besides this I think there will be good things and bad things. What's positive about that you might ask? Well, statisticly spoken it is "impossible" that every nerv/buff/rework will be a disaster. That means it will overall be a fresh breeze in the current game and that is something I'm looking forward to. :)

Trigger alert for this post.
Boil over was still a pretty meh perk even at 100%. It got nerfed because it affects console players more than PC players. They should've looked for a fix rather than just make the perk console only.
Boon CoH still heavily needs a nerf because it's never been properly nerfed. The healing speed has never been the problem.
Julie's mixed nerfed? When? It just recharges Feral Frenzy when stunned.
Legion's rework is huge. Just for the reduces stun after feral frenzy ends.
Dead Man's switch is a good combo with pain resonance but... the generator also doesn't regress when blocked. You can take advantage of that by making sure you tap that gen when DMS ends.
