Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Lightweight

Lightweight: the perk that no one uses, therefore nobody knows it's been bugged since the scratch mark update and is completely useless and just takes up a perk slots, it doesn't work in the slightest therefore rendering it useless.

Lightweight Perk Description: Increased reduction of scratch mark duration to 3/4/5 seconds. Your scratch marks are spaced more inconsistently.

Currently Lightweight doesn't do either of these things as it doesn't even work at all, and you can see this clearly when you run Lightweight with Fixated. I've reported this bug multiple times yet all I've gotten out of it is the support bots "Sorry to hear that." This perk was mostly the reason for the scratch mark update change and now it's completely useless because they didn't update the perk when they put the update out.

    I use this perk 100% of the time I play survivor. I'm going to test this out tomorrow.

    We do have a active bug report thread for the Lightweight issue here, for anyone who experiences it in their games. I've also noticed this way earlier than 8.6.0, seeing it around 8.4.0.

    I was using this perk often before it stopped functioning as described, but I still use it a little because the scratch marks still fade fast with it. It was a niche perk though so sucks to say it but if Streetwise wasn't a priority for them, there's no way this gets fixed anytime soon. I've been using Deception instead and it's an ok replacement.

    Really? I thought it was working and equipped myself even.

    I also noticed weird bug with scratches marks not appearing even when survivor is running in front of me, creating huge gaps
