Making Boon Perks and Hexes worth a while (Fix/Buff)

Boon perks or Hexes have a low usage rate and I rarely see them used in the 4 years that I played. You can easily Buff Boons and Hexes but I want to change how they function. I find Boons and Hexes interesting because they encourage you to play differently.

Therefore my goal is to encourage players to run them more often. If you think Boon Perks and Hexes are fine or you think differently than me, I'd like to know.

My Problems with Boon Perks

They take away time from doing gens, are sometimes not worth it nor can be snuffed immediately.

My Problems with Hexes

Their survivability is low or they do not have a strong enough effect.

My Fixes to Boon Perks

  • [BUFF] Increased the Strength of every Boon Perk
  • [BUFF] Increased the Range of Effect to 32 meters (was 24)
  • [BUFF] Decreased the Bless Time for blessing a Dull Totem to 10 seconds (was 14)
  • [BUFF] Decreased the Bless Time for blessing a Hex to 15 seconds (was 28)

My Fixes to Hexes

  • [BUFF] Made Hexes more dangerous
  • [NEW] The Killer can now destroy every Totem (Pentimento should get reworked)
  • [NEW] Gain the ability to Rekindle a broken Totem to a Weaker Version of a Hex (can be used 1 time per hex)
  • [NERF] Increased the Cleansing Time of Hexes to 15 seconds (was 14 seconds)
  • [NERF] Cleansing a Totem gives randomized Skill Checks
