What type of Monster killer do you wanna see next?

Aesthetics wise idk, any sort of monstrosity kinda works, even Dredge's design would work i suppose. Power wise, something that punishes survivors for being close to the killer. As in standing in it's Terror Radius limits Survivors ability to do everything, slower repairing, cleansing, blessing, sabotaging, healing, faster item comsuption, no aura reading, exhaustion, obliviousness, etc. The thought process behind it is exactly what i said before, mere mortals innability to accept and comprehend a Cosmic being. It's mere presence and gazing upon it twists mere mortals ability to comprehend reality.

A 24 meter base TR sounds about right, not to big to not be too opressive but not too short either so it isn't unusable. This creates a scenario of Map pressure without the need for crazy mobility and it forces survivors to commit. Either they do the further gens and risk a 3 gen or push through the TR debuffs so they can create pockets in the Map and reduce the effectiveness of the killers power.

This ensures the killer doesn't require much gen defense Perks and can focus on Information or chase perks. Would people do Forever builds? Yeah they would obviously, wich is problematic so a possible solution is that each survivor gets afflicted with a random debuff, 1 gets slower repair, the other slower healing, the other increased item comsuption rate, the other slower sabotage, etc. This way while you can use Sloppy Butcher to punish 1 guy alot, it's still not punishing everyone extra hard and you might not even be punishing anyone extra hard cause that debuff might not even be applied to anyone.

Another way to work around and prevent extra punishement for just that 1 survivor whole match would be for the debuff to have a timer and switch at random to another debuff when the timer expires.

It could go first 60 seconds with slower healing, then the next 60 seconds of increased sabotage time, then the next 60 seconds of increased item consuption, then the next with no aura reading, then the next exhausted, etc. Make the effect switch at random after a set period of time.

This way as long as someone is inside the TR then they are affected by a new debuff which is good for killer.

This creates a risk reward for both sides, something the game really needs in my opinion, survivors inside TR get debuffed while survivors outside TR don't get debuffed. Killer gets to debuff everyone inside it's TR but is also forced to seek new territory to ensure they can debuff all survivors and keep the debuffs cycling. This creates a dynamic of engagements which is the purpose of the game.

This power gives the killer two options, attempt stealth by shortning it's TR to catch survivors off guard with a debuff to make single targets more vulnerable or augmentthe TR to increase map pressure. Survivors can counter it by spreading out but risk being more vulnerable as individual targets or risk being closer to the killer and push through the debuffs while being in better position to help each other.

So killer get's stronger 1v1 or macro pressure. But also puts the killer in a position where they must engage with everyone as much as possible. You don't make use of your power if you're camping a hooked guy... he's on the hook he can't do anything so you're not debuffing anyone unless they come to you and even then the debuff they might get might not affect their chase potential so killer might not benefit from the 1v1. This will benefit you against Ultra altruistic players for sure but quickly becomes a useless strategy if you just let people do gens.

Again this makes things a risk vs reward game, where risking a 1v1 rescue might not be good for either side.

Perks that would combine well with the killer? Lethal Pursuer to know at the start what's the best pressure option to spread debuffs. Corrupt Intervention to force players to either hide and be useless or come closer and risk debuffs. Starstruck, buffs your TR to give you lethality. Chase perks are a bit of a mix cause they either work in shorter chases or scares people into shift + w which might not be ideal. Dark Devotion can be useful, hitting the Obsession transfer TR so if the obsession comes in contact with other survivors they are debuffing themselves while killer is free to aproach someone with no TR, you can mix this with PWYF to hit the obession activate Dark Devotion, leave the Obsession, gain a PWYF token and surprise someone else with stealth and speed to increase your lethality.

So we're looking at a Build like Corrupt Intervention/Lethal Pursuer - StarStruck - Dark Devotion - PWYF. Not Meta Heavy but plays to the killers strength's and weaknesses. Gives information/allows to pressure the Map better - Gives speed - Gives Mobility in form of stealth and gives Lethality.

Startstruck plays well into the risk reward. Being exposed on top of whatever debuff you already had is a good deterrent against any rescue attempt.

It's a good Mix of everything a killer needs without being an anti-loop killer.

In a perfect scenario i guess you'd hit the Obsession, they'd run into someone else and spread the debuffs, then you can use your stealth and speed to hit someone else, get the down and pick them up, if StarStruck goes on then you you know your timing was right and someone is there and you insta know you've debuffed and exposed someone. IF Starstruck doesn't procc then you were either still under the effect of DArk Devotion or nobody else was there, which means they either are isolated or there's a chance they've made contact with the Obsession and are debuffed aswell.

That's just pretty good pressure if you ask me.

Krampus.

If the chapter doesn’t drop in December, I’d be highly disappointed.
