Iron will

just because a perk is commonly used doesn’t mean a nerf is necessary. Iron will doesn’t need a nerf.

    I would be fine with stridor countering it again like it used to. Even the exhaustion part. But it’s pointless if it’s not 100%

    Destroying a perk to fix it isn’t fixing it either.

    You dont need Stridor.

    Pre-Nerf Stridor lowered the power level of Iron Will A LOT. Now this Power Level is the new state of Iron Will. And it is sad.

    Stridor is a fine luxury coffee - of course folgers is fine, too. But I like my audio tracking with some strong aromas ☕️

    Nah nah, Iron Will does need changes. But two nerfs on top of each other ain't it. Either or would be fine imo.

    Iron Will is just dead now.

    It let Survivors lose the Killer or not being found by them. With any amount of grunts, this purpose is completely gone. Maybe for bigger distances it will do something, but it wasn't really used for that, it was more important when closer.

    I get wanting to nerf it, but changing the amounts just killed it. The Exhaustion effect is closer to how it should be nerfed.

    RIP Iron Will.

    Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

    IMO the Nerf to deactivate Iron Will when exhausted is fair. This would give the choice of either not running Exhaustion Perk and have Iron Will all the time or running Exhaustion Perks and giving up Iron Will for a huge amount of time during the match.

    But the Nerf to the Noise Reduction just kills the Perk.

    Iron Will is too strong at current state. It helps a lot on loops and chaining the loops. And also 75% is not that bad, because Killer need more attention to sounds.

    Would it be possible to normalize the sound levels across survivors before nerfing Iron Will?

    Certain characters - like Leon, Jeff, Jane, etc., are much louder than others, and very difficult to use without Iron Will..

    The thought that occurred to me is that this can offer value to other perks that make you completely quiet, like Off the Record (even aside from its Borrowed Time buff), Bite the Bullet, Self-Preservation, and Parental Guidance.

    I wonder if that's a factor in the devs' thinking.
