Part Of Me Just Really Hates The Change To Pharmacy

Im just going to admit it... I am a chest goblin. And Ive been very silent about it until recently. I like randomness, it makes things interesting, and chests just provide that extra bit of randomness that I enjoy.

But I just really do not like the change to Pharmacy since the increased Chest Searching Speed only applies while injured and not the entire time which Pharmacy previously did.

It use to make Chest Searching feel worth it since the time I wasted was not so much and the items could help out my team, but now it just feels like Im wasting me and my team's time.

Idk, how do yall feel about this?

    I liked a med-kit soon into a match; now you have to go and get hit, and escape, in order to get one. Pulled from a hook you're likely to get a heal, preventing you from getting it again. The other guaranteed-item perks don't have this drawback, I wonder why they added it. Maybe it was used some way I don't know, and it was a problem.

    Very absurd change. It worded perfectly fine before and they managed to make it worse. Most people don't equip perks that only work when injured.

    Damn I didn't know it was changed. I've been spamming flashbang build lately

    I mean Resilience and DH are probably the only exception to this, but at least they have applications that can benefit the player greatly. The change to Pharmacy was kind of just unneeded, it was a good perk, not amazing but not bad, just good, I liked it a lot.

    There were a couple of so called "buffs" in that patch.

    Calm Spirit is another one, it retains the slower speed to cleanse and search at all times. I feel like it shouldn't deserve that, just because it has the silent aspect.

    Needs to be like that one Haddie flashlight perk where I can rummage. I used it for one day last week and hardly got any value from it. First, I'm wasting time looking for a chest without using Plunderers and by the time I get injured and can search for a chest they have already been looted. Would rather just waste time looking for a totem and get multiple heals guaranteed from CoH.

    Even then, Id rather just use Inner Healing (my beloved), a 6 second heal + removing a totem for a potential NOED is really underrated, even for a Universal/General Perk (sidenote, why the hell does BHVR never use Universal Perk and General Perk consistently, it really bothers me).

    i loved being a chest dweller, but i don't do that anymore because the searching speed got taken away from me.

    I wish that Pharmacy will return to it's original self one day :(
