Deerstalker absolutely needs a buff:

https://deadbydaylight.wiki.gg/wiki/Deerstalker

Currently it works only on those aura reveals that have a fixed duration, not those that are conditional. This should absolutely be changed imo, because it's not a strong perk, and doesn't work the same way Object of Obsession does.

    The problem is Deerstalker would be kinda busted against certain perks if it did work with conditional/non-time based aura reading (especially Kindred in particular if you could get on-demand aura reading of the entire survivor team while near the hook).

    Also, it really shouldn't be a perfect equivalent to Object anyways. Object inherently is a high risk perk, it can be strong but the survivor also makes themselves more vulnerable, Deerstalker doesn't really carry that same risk as a killer perk. I feel like that sort of also justifies the additional restriction compared to Object, so I think Deerstalker is fine as is.

    Or it could be reverted since it can help avoid accidental slugging?

    Well it needs an activation sound so a second before it starts so I can take full advantage.
