Object of Obssession needs rework, same as other killer reading auras. (Alert, Dark sense...)
Object of obssesion should get rework.There are a lot of killers that are undetectable. So when you pick object of obssesion they can see you and you cant see them. Its like killer has 5 perks. Survivor perks should help survivors not killers. It should show undetectables or if not, killer shouldnt be able to see your aura unless you see theirs 2. Same applies for alert, dark sense and other killer reading auras which makes you totally uselles if they are undetectable.

That's the risk you take. Object already got reworked. It used to be whenever you look in the killers direction you see the killers aura and they see you. No timer/cooldown or anything.

Im sorry but there isnt any killer perk that works in advantage of the survivors. So it just isnt balanced.

It got me wondering... could Lethal Pursuer possibly extend the aura read of 3-O? (Yeah I call it 3-O)

If the killer is undetectable when alert etc. activates, its a counter of the killer. Its okay, bc you have no downside and no killer is always undetectable. So you get you value from the perk, just less then against other killer.
But i agree with your change for object. Its really bad if you play against a stealth killer. Having no value is one thing, but being detrimental is not good. The perk is not strong and has a low pickrate, so the change would be fine. But the problem is that you would need to change the coding. Right now it uses for both effects the same mechanic: the game detects when the killer sees your aura and copys the effect. Im no expert, but it sounds simple.
With the new change it would be a lot more complicated: the game needs to check every 30 seconds if the killer is undetectable. If its true your aura doesnt get shown. But only if its bc its the effect of object. If a killer uses bbq while undetectable, he should still see you. I wouldnt be surprised if thats create many bugs and needs a lot of playtesting. But maybe im wrong and it isnt a lot of work.

Isn't "Undetectable" supposed to counter things like aura reading? Otherwise it'd just be obliviousness, right?
I don't see how this is a malfunction.
This is a pretty uninformed statement. Dying Light as already said provides a pretty substantial bonus to the obsession as a core part of its function. Hoarder provides additional chests to the survivors, and Unnerving Presence increases skill check spawns and reduces success zones, both of which actively benefit higher skill survivors who are able to hit great skill checks consistently.

To be fair, Dying Light should probably be tweaked so it either doesn’t give the Obsession a big action speed boost or it should at least have a good effect out of the gate to make up for that.

Object is fine honestly, in my opinion killers wont actively go towards ur aura if you have it unless you are super close by
