Can We Buff Boon: Dark Theory?
I feel like if Made For This can give a 3% speed boost for something that occurs naturally throughout the course of the match, Dark Theory can afford to give a boost higher than 2% considering you have to set it up first and then only applies to a specific area of the map. I really like Dark Theory as a concept but in its current state it just doesn't feel strong enough to justify running.

Made For This is already a mistake, I don't think we needs another one of it.
Giving non time limited haste to survivor is already a bad idea as is.

I think it would be cool if dark theory instead revealed the killer's aura to survivors while the killer was within the boons radius instead of buffing the speed boost aspect of it. That way it makes it so the killer can't really win any mind games while chasing in its radius.

Your description seems to be extremely problematic perk.

It would be different kind of wire tap, so the effect itself is not problem. Considering that the reach would be higher and destroying boon is more time consuming, it would need to be worse in it's effect. One possibility is to provide the aura intermittently. Like 2s aura and 5s of nothing.
Overall current dark theory is one of many many perks, that just make no sense to bring (and I suspect it's mostly used for memes to have "most worthless boon" or "full boon build" (there are just 4 boons, so...) or speed build (bloodpact, dark theory, hope and power of two)).

How? It's literally wiretap but worse because it's boon limited
Plus, it makes sense regarding the perk description itself
And even it being added onto it will still be a low tier perk that's almost never run because it's a weak effect

Honestly idk what is OP about that idea, because it hardly is, the effect is just so niche it will still be in the exact same spot it is now

Made for this shouldn't be some balancing standard.
It's busted and will get nerfed.

After the sales have reached a certain amount of course.

It shouldn't be balancing perk. But it isn't. I am pretty sure it's not so strong as you make it sound to be

we will see, it's not just that movement speed, endurance effect is really good too.

I would go as far as to have Dance With Me and Boon: Dark Theory both get the same buff: Converting Medium Vaults into Fast Vaults. Dance With Me would be based on the same CD as the scratch marks, but Dark Theory would work as long as you have the effects of the boon, since the boon can be snuffed. To make it known for the Killer it was a converted vault, the Fast Vault would get a different vault sound effect, that way Killers can work with or around it.

Like from 2% to 4%, would be nice.

it is that strong. one of aspects that perk entirely reverts is 10% pallet break speed and 10% less recovery/less sprint burst. The survivor make more distance per pallet break and make go further with their health-states because they're moving faster. Both of aspects that buff holding-w in the game. Dark theory also does this but its major issue as I said is limited radius of boon. Running forward is difficult when the only area you have to work with is 24 meters. If only dark theory was 40 meters then dark theory would also buff holding-w.

There's literally 0 point in arguing. It will go live. It will get it's 6% usage rate and then you can check back at this message how OP it is. Also - adrenaline is very good but not OP. Still it's one of a few really good perks - 32%. MfT will not come even close

I don't consider adrenaline to be balanced perk. it is one of few over-tuned perks left on survivor side. The reason why survivor did not use it apart from 4 man SWF prior to 6.1 was because there was an even more powerful perk in the end game called decisive strike and another perk called Borrow time that worked during the game.
