Am i the only one that wants new KILLER perks that apply the broken satus effect?

Especially since healing seems so fast nowdays, and to be fair we really only have like 3 of those.

No quarter (trash) - needs a buff so it activates on normal heals too, not just self heals.

Forced penance (ok) (very situational)

terminus (good)

ALSO if u have any ideas for perks that apply (broken) feel free to tell us. And pls no hexes, hexes suck ty.

:)

    Honestly they should rework 'Septic Touch' and just make it inflict broken and blindness on survivors hit with basic attacks for a certain duration

    Would be miles better than it's current version.

    I actually think that, or a sort of "Heal based Old Ruin" where it takes away heal progress as a Hex or something, would be a good change. I do want to see more Broken or heal-slowing perks happen. Maybe one that drains item charges faster while injured or something.

    I don't think it'd do much in shake up. I absolutely love new Dark Devotion, Alien Instinct, Genetic Limits… but people still use the same 4 perks. Like they don't want to experiment or play for fun but rather set on the competitive mindset.

    No Quarter should, imo, also give you skill checks while Mending. To spice things up a bit.

    I think the main reason why No Quarter does not work on other people healing others is the reason as when you self-heal and fail the check you can just blame yourself. If it happens because the other person fails the check you get penalized because something the other person did. It also can create the situation where you can be griefed by some other survivor who fails them intentionally. Like I would be fine with some other penalty for other person healing that would effect them and not the person being healed. Like give blindness or some other negative status effect for the same duration than you would have got broken.
