Can you please just add small delay to Eruption instead of nerfing its numbers.

Make it so the effect triggers 1-2 seconds after a survivor has been downed.

Add a fancy animation to the gen just for the sake of it & buff it somehow a little to compensate smaller frequency of incapacitated application.

This way perk requires purely personal skill and moderate reaction time to get off gen and evens solo q & swf because the information they have to react to comes from UI - survivor being downed.

Simple as that, the perk stays strong and effective and only punishes people if they don't pay enough attention to the game instead of just being lucky/unlucky.

    That would just make it bad. There’s no reason not to just always let go of the gen then every time someone is downed.

    See, these people want a easy and consistent way to ignore Eruption altogether, they don't want just "counterplay". They have a 1v1 mindset and think this game isn't a team game. They don't like being punished for their teammate's failures.

    OP has suggested a, literally, easy and consistent way to ignore Eruption and thinks a "little buff" is "good compensation". This is pretty much everything wrong with these forums, actually.

    this would just be current pain res+dms where DMS is useless because good survivor do not get hit by it. eruption is good because its not easy to counter. its suppose guaranteed slowdown for downing a survivor. you counter the perk by being good at chase and by gen-rushing killer so he does not have much time to kick generators/finish gen before eruption procs. SWF issue with the perk need to be fixed though.

    That would kill the secondary effect, making it work only on distracted survivors which imo would be bad design.
