so im killer main 80% of my time i play killers , but when i do play survivors i try variety of builds , and one of my favorite perks is hope , i guess in theory this perk look nice but in game its 2 much situational , and it only works when ur the one getting chased else it has no use kind off , and at same time in 1 v 1 in endgame collapse its uselesss because u want to play stealthy to sneak into exit gate , and if u run no matter how fast you are , you wont be able to do anth

and wake up is at same time worthless

so i was thinking , how about combining these 2 perks , this perk would be totally for late game so in early u would be losing 1 slot for no effect till late and if u run it with adrenaline u wouldnt have 2 perks till late game ,, and thematically it makes sense , Wake up , when all generators are done , you wake up and run faster :)

    I feel hope is under-rated. Cutting the killer's speed advantage by almost half (or more) - or getting to where you need to go to open gates and make saves faster is pretty useful. Killers are not used to hope either, they often will miss on their first lunge not realizing your increased speed. When both adrenaline and hope go off during a chase you can almost see the killer's own hope fade from their eyes.

    The only thing I really like about wake-up is the auras of showing the switches and your aura when you open to other survivors.

    Neither is really useful for EGC - you can just open the gate for a few seconds before the light comes on, hide from killer patrol, then try to open rest of the way and that replaces any advantage wake-up had in faster opening.

    I've been wanting to do resilience with wake-up and see how that goes - but it's really niche as well. I think it stacks for 24% faster exit opening and if you were also under effects of leader that might really opens exits fast.

    id love that, but id rather buffing wake ups numbers to be like 60% or more, i already run it a lot and id like it to be useful at any endgame,(hatch closed endgame and normal eg)

    I like when killers assume you're hacking in the endgame chat when you use Hope.
