98% of this population uses them, the last 2% don't have them yet

why not add a "special farming perk slot" for them, this being the 5th perk?

i think it'd be cool af

    BBQ is much more than a farming perk^^

    i guess it is ok as it is.

    While BBQ has Aura Reading, it is not that useful on many Killers. Killers like Nurse, Billy, Spirit can make something out of it, Hag or Trapper not so much.

    But I would not consider WGLF really that often used. People use it, but not as frequently as BBQ is being used. Besides that, if you want to have more BPs, you should have to sacrifice a Perk Slot for this.

    Or we could buff the BP offerings so they're more worth using in addition to BBQ and WGLF?

    Made a thread with suggestions for BP offering rework, ways back. https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/46827/a-rework-of-bloodpoint-offerings

    Making a 5th perk slot would better be for the character's own teachables than just 2 randomly chosen perks from 2 different dlc.

    I suggested this countless times and nobody even cared -_-

    And tbh when they say that BBQ op and stuff... yes it's annoying but it also makes it more likely for the killer not to camp if he knows where to go next.

    This would just create a Meta. Some Characters would not be played anymore. Like, there is no reason to play Ace or Kate, because their own teachable are mediocre at best.

    And even male characters would suffer. I mean, you enjoy playing Iron Will? Jake would be your man. But wait, you also run Adrenaline? Then go for Meg instead, she is smaller and you have an advantage.

    Like for me, I am playing Nea and I use Balanced Landing. So I would have an advantage out of this, I would simply need to push BL to the 5th Perkslot and can put something else into my build.

    This change would inflate the BP economy. If everyone started earning more BP per trial then the developers would simply increase the prices of each item in the Bloodweb.

    @Aven_Fallen

    I didnt say that the other 4 slots would be redtricted in any kind. Claudette would be able to pick 4 perks of her choosing, plus one of her own teachables. Obviously she wouldnt be able to equip the same perk twice.

    A 4 perk meta could be used on any character even with such a system. I am aware there'd be meta characters but i guess there'd be no big difference since claudette and meg slready are at the top.

    @Raptorrotas If anything instead of a perk I'd give each survivor a small buff that fits their character. Using Claudette as an example, she gets plus 5% to healing speeds. Something small like that wouldn't unbalance the game, and would make each survivor unique.

    What a load of crap. Every killer can make great use of BBQ.
