Leader - blessing totems

I saw someone make a report about Leader not working with totem blessing, but it wasn't a bug. Leader does not affect the blessing speed.

Could you make it so it does? Boons aren't OP anymore these days, and not many people bring Leader into trials, so I think that this would be a neat update.

    Exactly. Maybe a future midchapter could give some extra flavor to these 2 perks, so people find them more appealing to use. :)

    I think Leader should also give the boost to

    Blessing

    Mending

    Dealing with killer belongings (when the skull icon appears in the HUD)

    And just to bring Leader to the meta, survivors could be affected by multiple Leaders

    Yeah Leader should apply to blessing. It should be added to Thana as well.

    I don't think Leader should be buffed so much to become a meta perk. Just enough so that it doesn't collect dust on the perk shelves. The stacking might be too much, I feel.

    To me, at least 50 perks should become part of the meta

    I mean, I agree.... 'cause that would essentially make every perk regularly used, and not a meta :P

    Yeah, thats why removing the stacking is not too strong in my opinion

    Even if a 4-men SWF using Leader, giving a 75% of bonus to each other (when they get close I must remember) is not that strong because the killer is not actually experiencing that bonus in some way, except if the survivors are healing. CoH is 100% bonus and stronger than the max 50% that Leader can provide when healing (only 2 survivors can heal the 3rd)

    For cleansing and blessing, I mean, it doesn't happen very often right? Unless the killer has Plaything, Thrill, Pentimento... its not gonna make any difference

    For opening chests, definitely not something a killer will be bother by. "Oh no, that survivor can open a chest 75% faster because all 3 teammates are close to them, Leader OP"

    For gates, if a survivor can open a gate with teammates near them, I guess the game is already in favour of the survivors. GG?

    Mending and killer belongings are just ideas to make the perk "stronger" than it should be. There is absolute 0 perks that can speedup those process. And to be honest, I would even put "recovering from dying state" as a bonus as well. Just the speed of course, survivors would still need to use a perk or the help of a teammate to get up.

    But despite all these buffs, I highly doubt Leader would become meta, even more in solo queue. People want advantages to help themselves for the most part, Leader ain't that
