Survivor version of Lethal Pursuer

See the killer for the first “x” seconds of the game and extend all aura reading effects by “x” seconds. Let’s see it.

    Would you ever use such a perk? If so when/why? For killer it makes clear sense - he wants to cut down time in which he finds survivor. For survivor it makes less sense - he will figure out what killer it is (or that it's stealth killer by not seeing anything) and maybe general direction the killer is going. It might make you get chased a little bit later, but at the cost of full perk. Outside of maybe combining it with deliverance I don't see a point of such a perk (but enlighten me please - I am sincerely curious).

    As a base kit, huh? Or how about perk what give you and to your whole team option to read killers aura anytime when do a step. Its not broken and it would not be that powerfull. I think this is decent perk. And it should be a base kit as well. What do you think? You already know most of the time where killer is, because Corrupt intervention is giving you perfect hint that you are the most far away from him. And rest of them has killer terror radius.

    But now for real without overexeggaration

    So no need for survivor´s version of Lethal Pursuer. Its already difficult, only sometimes, to find survivors quickly enough to not get genrushed. If survivor would have info about killer he would be able to make him even more stealthy, because he would choose much safer way to anywhere.

    The killer vision at the start is less of the significance other than avoiding him early. The main point is the aura extension, of which I would run depending on the numbers they’re extended. Run three aura perks and this and you’ve got a lot of extended aura duration. I’d argue the aura extension of Lethal Pursuer is its main point as well. As much as people like the early aura reading it’s essentially redundant information for anyone with experience. You know survivor spawns and rarely do I ever not instantly start chase with someone within the first 15 seconds of the game.

    I can’t understand you, the sentence structure is very broken.

    I think a survivor version of Lethal would be very unhealthy, honestly. The killer seeing survivors simply tells them their location. A survivor seeing the killer tells them not only their location but also which killer it is completely ruining any surprise a stealth killer would have especially in a SWF when only one survivor needs to run this perk and can call out the killer + location to the entire team (or that they can’t see the aura, if it’s Wraith, Myers, or Sadako). Whether a stealth killer can get an easy first hit (or even a quick down) by sneaking up on a survivor or not can make a huge difference.

    Even with Object, there’s enough of a delay before its first activation that I wouldn’t consider it problematic.

    i mean some people legit run it for early aura reading because they think that the early part of the game is most important part of the game. I do not agree but that is the opinion of some killer players. I am also fairly certain that the killer players that do run it will run it for its early game benefit. With current killer perks, I am more likely to see a killer run lethal pursuer then the killer running corrupt intervention.

    The survivor equivalent of this perk in my opinion is Open handed

    I think Open Handed could extend duration of perks and addons that have an aura effect. It is not that kind of problematic since most survivor perks based in auras are not much used. OoO, Alert, etc would benefit from it.

    I'd rather we DIDN'T indirectly nerf Trapper again. Or any stealth killer.

    Fogwise. Comes with the added benefit of working throughout the entire trial

    I’m not dodging questions. I was literally trying to say in the nicest way possible that you have terrible grammar and sentence structure to where what your typing is near incomprehensible. I was attempting to say it as nicely as possible since for all I know English wasn’t your first language and you had to use google translate so I was giving the benefit of the doubt and attempting to be understanding. Yet instead of using that opportunity to try and correct yourself you decided to be rude towards me. I’m still willing to answer your questions if you phrase them in a correct way and without being condescending.
