Detective's Hunch buff suggestion.

When the final gen is done all marked/spotted totems will be shown to you throught the map, for ever. So if you do a lot of gens you can leave the totems and when the final gen is done you can see all the totems until you die or escape.

    I like this idea, but I'd a small QoL change to it because Poised has it.


    Basically, whenever a generator is completed, the perk activates. Not when YOU complete a generator.


    Add this to your idea, and we will have a pretty solid perk!

    I actually thought the perk worked this way when i started using. Its still something, even if it must be you completing a gen.

    But i would really love this slight buff!

    It's called Detective's Hunch because when you complete a generator, you "have a hunch" that something else is in the area. I disagree with it showing forever because you're supposed to follow your hunch. I think an increased distance, and/or maybe increased time of reveal would be a better buff to keep it's intention. Honestly I feel like Detective's Hunch is a fine perk to use instead of Small Game, people just don't use it because they have to complete gens to activate it, and probably because Small Game also works for traps.

    One idea to keep the "hunch" thematic would be to make it so that if you're within the killer's terror radius, you can see nearby traps and totems from X distance. You wouldn't be able to cleanse it if you were being chased, but you'd at least be able to see totems that might be well hidden so you could keep it to memory. And this way it'd show the entire time you were in their radius.


    If you brought a map and used it, I'm sure Detective's Hunch spots would be shown on your map as well, so this idea would also make maps pretty useless with Detective's Hunch.

    I would love to see a buff to this neat perk but Atrushan88 has a point.
