since this perk is underrated, here is my opinion of how it should be buffed.

whenever you lose a health state, entered the dying state or hooked. gain 1 token up to maximum of 2 tokens.

great skill check success zone while repairing or healing get 20/25/30% bigger when you are injured, and while injured, when the perk has at least 1 token, 1 token will be automatically consumed when a skill check is triggered and grants a 100% full great skill check success zone while repairing or healing.

Is it fair now?

    As long as all the perk does is make it easier to hit great skill checks it will never be good because it is 100% outclassed by stake out. Stake out makes it easier to get great skill checks AND makes great skill checks have an additional 1% bonus progress. Even stake out is only good if combined with hyperfocus, since the extra skill checks granted by hyperfocuses increased skill check odds give more opportunities to benefit from that 1% extra and the tokens of stake out act as a shield against mistakes allowing you to continue hyperfocus streaks even after getting a good

    I see the intent behind this buff, and I think it's got merit, but I don't know that it's the right direction to go. It kinda feels like it'd be too similar to Stake Out.

    Myself, I'd rather lean into it being the new-player "hit skillchecks easier" perk, and have it widen skill check success zones permanently, not just while injured.

    Its a fair buff but Stake out would be better overall even with these buffs. You could use them both with Hyper focus + a good toolbox i suppose.

    would prefer If "this is not happening" also increased the chances/frequency of getting skill checks while injured in addition to its current effect.

    I like Skill Check builds but they are not consistent unless you are using an Item. Hyper focus helps once you get a skillcheck, but if you are unlucky it will take a while before you get your first check. Having a perk to help get that fist one would be nice.
