Make kindred default (except seeing killer within range part)

I'm so done with this, I'm so done with getting hooked and all I see are 2 people on different gens and another healing and I'm legit getting blatantly ignored. Make it default with showing all survivors seeing each other if someone is on hook so people literally don't have to waste a perk slot just to get their 3 hook lives, it's ridiculous. But buff kindred just to show killer aura within like 8/12/16 meters.

    Your idea could contribute to reduce the gap between solos and teams, and then help the game balance. I agree with it.

    Kindred should then be reworked. I suggest the following way.

    KINDRED
    The Entity has given you the gift of telepathy, to communicate with your companions and increase the hopes for survival.

    Start the trial with 3/4/5 tokens.

    Press the Active Ability button to leave a mark on the ground, consuming a token. The mark's Aura can be seen by all the other survivors for 20/25/30 seconds, but it's invisible to the killer.

    Yeah I'd stick with the seeing the killer. Swf can tell eachother that they're being camped, so other will stay on gens. Solos can't so you'll get people coming in for the rescue and just standing nearby thinking they'll leave.

    Or just bring Kindred yourself? Killers also give up slots to make up for crappy game design.

    This is meant to help reduce the gap between swf and solos, so yes we can bring it ourselves right now but the devs talked about putting this in as a default feature.

    It would be a huge buff for solo players, i love it and i'm pro for it!

    Could you add my Kindred rework suggestion to the opening post, then? Many people read the first message and reply without a good knowledge of the whole thread.

    What kind of killer buff do you suggest to compensate for that?

    I think solo survivors should already have a things that SWF have. Base Kindred 2 as you said and ability to see who is in the chase at the moment. I mean if we can't nerf SWF, let's at least buff solo players to the same level as them.
