Surge needs a buff
This perk should activate regardless how survivors are put into the dying state. It makes it usable for more killers. The 3 gen event doesn't make it OP.

Surge is fine where its at, it is currently in the top 10 most used killer perks. I am a Surge enjoyer myself, and i don't think it needs any changes.

This is how surge gets a 30 second cooldown again. Pls no, my poor m1 killers will not give it up

Surge is in a very good spot.

many questionable perks have big pickrates, Surge is one of those and is...the worst active gen regression perk you will pretty much rarely get actual value of if survivors happen to force downs away from gens being done + regression is way too low for how inconsistent this perk is. I won't say it needs a buff because with it's radius, no buff will make it actually more useful to pick than e.g. Eruption (way more consistent and quite literally the best perk for holding 3-gens) for example

Surge gives m1's passive regression, info of someone who does the gens, which gens have progress etc. It is a good perk

Surge is quite literally in a good spot.

it's useless compared to almost every other gen slowdown perk. Counterplay to it is literally so easy that you'd have it's value denied so often that you'd be extremely lucky to blow up gens that actually have some progress and are important for protecting.
Eruption exists and is way more consistent + is the best perk for protecting your 3-gen

Hate to be this person, but i think its a skill issue. I get tons of value using Surge, i don't understand how you think its a bad perk? Eruption is a completely different perk, it requires gen kicking unlike Surge. Surge is a passive regression, hence why its numbers are a tad lower, but even then doesn't make the perk "worse" than Eruption.

skill issue is when survivors force down away from gens that are being worked on lol.
On actual high skill levels, you can easily deny value of this perk, i recommend you to play against actually skilled teams.
Also...Surge is literally not a passive regression, passive regressions are Ruin, CoB and Overcharge.
Eruption comparison wise, Eruption is the best regression atm.

Surge is a passive regression perk, its passively active in the background waiting for you to get a down, but i guess different people can think otherwise. Also, low/high MMR is irrelevant to Surge's strength as a perk. I see very good players use Surge and get great value from it, just like low MMR players. Your argument doesn't make sense.

Yea surge is a pretty terrible perk and only has a high use-rate because everyone gets it for free. Its good on like 3 maps and awful on the rest.
