What do you think they'll do with Shadowborn and Monitor & Abuse?
Any ideas?

M&A will probably just lose the FoV part. The perk is only used for its TR manipulation anyway
Shadowborn will most likely get a new effect that is also related to tracking survivors to fit with wraith's perk scheme, but I have no idea.

I had the suggestion years ago that if they ever increase FoV, Shadowborne would let killer able to see survivor in the dark, similar like Myers/GF stalking, and Freddy. That fits more with the perk though.
Monitor & Abuse, I dont know.

That white glow? That'd be cool.
My gut feeling says Monitor & Abuse get increased and decreased terror radius depending on the amount of generators are repaired so you have default -8m and +8m and when a generator is repaired, -2m terror when not in chase or +2m terror radius during a chase are added to the default numbers.

Ooh, god, I hope not. Monitor is a pretty good perk already imo, and with the FOV changes, I personally only think it needs the FOV part taken out.
Shadowborn, I have no earthly idea. The glowing idea is neat, though.

The idea was even before Lery rework, and Lery early reworked was really dark (other realms too).
Fresh Lery reworked
Lery now, much brighter.
Glowing would be so useful back then, but I dont feel it worths a perk slot now.

That's fair. In general, the game has gotten brighter - But I'm not sure what they could make Shadowborn do. All of Wraith's perks are about tracking, and there's not much more they could do in terms of tracking perks.

Yeah if this was old DBD I'd think shadowborn would just be a filter but now idk. It might turn into an aura perk of some kind but we're running out of triggers for those. Maybe on a down see the survivors in a 24m radius?

If they did that, then my build wouldn't change and my Shadowborn addiction would prevail.👍️

I don’t have any specific ideas, but my guess is they’ll rework Shadowborn into a different kind of tracking perk since Wraith’s perks are supposed to be about tracking.
Monitor they should just remove the FOV modifier and leave it as is, it still has the terror radius modifier and that’s what people really use the perk for anyway. It doesn’t need an additional effect.

I'm on board with the M&A non FoV effect is fine as is train.
What I'd like for Shadowborn is this:
You are at home slinking through the shadows, unseen and unheard. While Undetectable and at least 16m away from a survivor and not in chase, gain 3/4/5% haste. This will not reactivate until you've been at least 16m from all survivors and not in chase for 3s.

It can be handy when looking at larger areas. If you are looking around on a hill on a corn map for example, getting what's essentially aura reading for anyone in your LOS can help separate survivors from corn or bushes.

It wouldn't surprise me if moniter gets an added effect, similar to what happened to BT after endurance on unhook became basekit.
