What do you think about this NOED change?

If a Survivor escapes chase with you, they become the Obsession. After 60 seconds, No One Escapes Death activates. You move 10% faster when chasing the Obsession. NOED deactivates when the Obsession is hooked and will reactivate 60 seconds after the next time the Obsession escapes a chase against you.

Finding the Obsession again during the 60 second activation timer will pause the timer. Hooking the obsession during the activation period will deactivate the perk until the obsession escapes a chase against you.

Could be fun if you also run Nemesis. I'm also biased because I don't like Hex perks (which is why I changed it away from being one) and I don't like Endgame perks (except No Way Out, that one is well-designed)

    I personally like how it is currently. Thank you for your feedback :)

    Eh. NOED is fine, imo.

    The perk idea itself sounds good, but I would use it as a separate perk rather than as a replacement for NOED.

    I don't think NOED needs to change really, and if you were to pursue this idea, it'd be better as a new perk.

    So looking at just the perk element of your suggestion, your big issue is that a permanent haste does a lot to reduce mind games (It was the same problem for MFT for survivors), and allows Killers to brute force an m1 hit… this flat 10% would already be a concern on it's own, but it also has absurd synergy with PWYF, and naturally becomes even worse if you somehow survived to the point of Bloodlust… it wouldn't be uncommon to see killers running around with an additional 20-30% haste (10% from new NOED, 5%-15% from 1-3s stacks of PWYF, and 5% from Bloodlust) stacking these perks, and all your looping/mind game skill becomes kinda meaningless since the killer is just charging after you at 5.52m/s - 5.98m/s.

    For reference, Legion's initial Feral Frenzy is 5.2m/s, after 2 hits is 5.6m/s, after 4 hits its 6.0m/s… this build would turn every killer into a Legion without needing to build up hits to down… I don't think it'd be very popular. ^^

    10% haste on top of bloodlust for survivor playing well? Sounds very interactive.
