Killer perks that need updating/buffs.

Seems like a lot of the killer perks feel extremely outdated and situational. These perks im listing are rarely used not because they are niche, its just that they are weak and 90% of the time useless to even use.

1) Blood Warden - Once per Trial, hooking a Survivor while Blood Warden is active calls upon The entity to block the exits for all Survivors for 30/40/60 seconds.

This perk should seem like it's good, but because of how situational it is.. it's often never used. It is too easily counterable, being the biggest issue, and even if you do pull it off, it doesn't even have a great chance of getting you anything more than 1 single hook.

Updated Blood Warden - Once per Trial, hooking a Survivor while Blood Warden is active calls upon The entity to block the exits for all Survivors for 30/40/60 seconds. Additionally, If any survivor loses a health state once the exit gates are powered, Blood Warden will activate automatically for 12/14/16 seconds. This will not overlap and give additional time if blood warden is already active, but can be activated for limitless duration potentially speaking.

This would mean survivors have to be extremely careful about endgame, not thoughtlessly taking hits if the exit gates are open.

• 2) Deathbound - Whenever a Survivor heals another Survivor for the equivalent of 1 health state at least 32 metres away from you, Deathbound activates:
• Causes the Survivor to scream and trigger a loud noise notification
• For the next 60 seconds, the Survivor suffers from the oblivious status effect whenever they are farther than 16/12/8 metres from the healed Survivor.

This perk is has just way too underwhelming of an effect to even consider staying next to the affected survivor for it to be worth it.

• Updated Deathbound - Whenever a Survivor heals another Survivor for the equivalent of 1 health state at least 32 metres away from you, Deathbound activates:
• Causes the Survivor to scream and trigger a loud noise notification
• For the next 60 seconds, the Survivor suffers from the oblivious status effect as well as the exposed status effect, whenever they are farther than 16/12/8 metres from the healed Survivor.

It's simply necessary to add the exposed effect as well to make it even viable. That could lead to some funny situations as well with the healing survivor doing everything they can to stay close afterwards.

3) Furtive Chase - You become obsessed with one Survivor.

You lurk in the shadows, eliminating your victims one by one.

Each time you hook your obsession, you gain 1 Token, up to a maximum of 2/3/4 Tokens:

• While in a Chase, your terror radius is reduced by 4 metres per accumulated Token.
• When a Survivor rescues the Obsession from the Hook, that Survivor will become the new Obsession.

You can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time.

This perk is just straight useless and confusing to even understand. Not sure how it can be effective outside of dropping chases near generators to chase someone else, but even then unless survivors are blind and not aware of whats going on 16 meters around them, it won't help at all.

Updated Furtive Chase - You become obsessed with one Survivor.

You lurk in the shadows, eliminating your victims one by one.

Each time you hook your obsession, you gain 1 Token, up to a maximum of 2/3/4 Tokens:

• While in a Chase, your movement speed will increase by 2% per token while chasing the obsession.
• When a Survivor rescues the Obsession from the Hook, that Survivor will become the new Obsession.

You can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time.

Thats basically it, just a movement speed buff whilst chasing your obsession only. Since it flops with each rescue, it also de-incentivizes tunneling. It's a much needed change to make it worth using and not too overpowered since it's only 1 of the 4 survivors.

4) Terminus - You are a brilliant tactician who prepares for every eventuality.

Once the exit gates are powered, Terminus activates:

• All survivors, who are either injured, dying, or hooked, suffer from the broken Status Effect until the Exit Gates are opened.
  • This effect lingers for an additional 20/25/30 seconds after the Exit Gates are open

This perk is not really useful because it doesn't do anything against healthy survivors and is hard countered by adrenaline anyway. It's way too underpowered to consider running.

Updated Terminus - Once the exit gates are powered, Terminus activates:

• All survivors immediately become injured if healthy and are affected with the broken status effect until the exit gates are opened. If this causes a survivor to lose 1 health state, they are given a 4 second sprint burst as well as 8 seconds of endurance.
  • The broken effect lingers for an additional 20/25/30 seconds after the Exit Gates are open

This perk update might seem a little too strong but this is the endgame and if survivors made it this far, nothing wrong with it feeling actually threatening.

5) Thwack - After hooking a Survivor, THWACK! activates:

• The next time you break a breakable wall or a pallet, all Survivors within 28/30/32 metres of your location will scream and reveal their aura for 4 seconds

Outside of the fact you need a pallet or wall to make this work, it doesn't have an effect worthy of being only useable after hooking someone just one time. Very underpowered and probably thought up by someone who both doesn't play dbd and uses drugs.

Updated Thwack - After hooking a Survivor, THWACK! activates:

• The next time you break a breakable wall or a pallet, all Survivors within 28/30/32 metres of your location will scream, and become afflicted with exposed, oblivious, and blindness for 16 seconds.

If it has a stringent requirement like hooking someone, it should probably have an effect that makes survivors want to "get the hell away from you" quickly. And ofcourse being able to use it strategically to clear an area near a generator maybe.

Would love to know what everyone thinks of these ideas, thanks for reading.
