Decisive Strike should be a gen based perk!
Not my idea. Credit to U/johnchoe99 https://www.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/y08jf5/decisive_strike_should_be_genbased_perk_starting/
Such a simple idea but such an amazing one. Its honestly surprising no one has suggested this until now as far as I'm aware. Basically suggests that the perk starts with 5 tokens, each token adding 1 second to the stun, but lose a token each time a gen is completed. Basically boils down to
5 Gens Left = 7 Second Stun
4 Gens Left = 6 Second Stun
3 Gens Left = 5 Second Stun
2 Gens Left = 4 Second Stun
1 Gen Left = 3 Second stun (What it is now)
0 gens Left = Perk deactivated
Wanted to shine some light on this post to get the forums opinions of this idea as I personally love it. Heck, maybe one the mods will see and forward the idea to the devs. :D

I have proposed something like this in some thread, but a bit different. Basically, Gens remainingx2 as Stun Time. So at 5 Gens, 10 second Stun and lower the more Gens got done. With 0 Gens to go, 0 seconds Stun, so deactivated.

I like the idea, but it still should go off, when all gens are done.

He said it would still deactivate at end game in his post. Just edited my post to reflect that.

Now I see.=)
Completely agree, DS right now is just nothing, tbh. I don't know why they nerfed it to 3 seconds in a first place. The only problem with DS was, when survivors were abusing it in the end game to have a 100% escape after being unhooked.
They got rid of the main problem, there was no need to nerf it further.

Believe me, everybody feels the same that the stun should've never been nerfed to 3 seconds.

None of the stuns should have been reduced. By the time you can even start moving they've recovered and are on you again. Other day I palate stunned a Michael who had absolutely no issue catching up to me. A Michael.

This is a pretty simple solution that would satisfy anyone not insanely biased.
It's severely punishes killers who tunnel early, but keeps if from being weaponized in the late game.
The devs would do well to consider this, or something close to it.

I’m all for reverting the change.. but 10 second stun is absurd.

I like that. I'm just not sure I wanna relive the days when people would constantly run to the killer trying to DS them. Especially with the Unbreakable changes coming. I think a better solution for tunneling would be if OTR let you completely lose collision with the killer (granting you immunity) for the time it's active.

You only get the 10 second stun if you tunnel at 5 Gens. Dont tunnel at 5 Gens and you wont get a lengthy stun.
Is it really that easy? Yes it is.

Sometimes you need to tunnel at 5 gens.

lel.
No Gens done and you already have some pressure because you got someone on the Hook, so two people not doing Gens at this point. Three, if you manage to get into another Chase.
"Sometimes you need to tunnel at 5 gens."... thanks for the good laugh.

Maybe if it was 3 secs AFTER the animation but it's not so that's why I agree the 5 secs should be brought back but keep it off at end game.

I don’t tunnel at 5 gens. But there are plenty of times that somebody will get unhooked and run straight into me, unhooker nowhere in sight. What am I supposed to do, completely ignore them?

DS is balanced now, survivors got OTR, bt basekit and soon UB basekit, beyond reassurance, killer should be able to tunnel even though he is still punished for it if the survs are good, DS dont need buff, would be unbalanced

What I decide to do as a killer is my decision. Survivors don't get a choice. Live it with. Keep dreaming these silly dreams.

Then you WANT to tunnel at 5 Gens. And then you get a long stun. Which would have been totally avoidable. Easy as that.

People want way to many things to be basekit. You have perks. Use it.

Pipe dream....not happening!
I'm going to tunnel, then you're going to come to the forums and cry because you can't handle it. That's what is really going to happen.
0 -
No, it shouldn't.
0 -
I dont think so.
But at least dont say that you NEED to tunnel at 5 Gens when the reality is you WANT to tunnel at 5 Gens. And apparently doing this to make the other side feel miserable and not to win. Great guy, really.

I love how this thread exploded as I went to bed. Glad to see some heavy discussion going :3
