Jake should have a rework

Okay except Iron Will, that perk is fine. I’m mostly talking about Saboteur and Calm Spirit. Saboteur isn’t good because it only last a couples seconds longer and Calm Spirit only goes good against 2 things, The Doctor and Spies from the Shadows.

I honestly don’t know how to fix Saboteur leave seluggestions down below.

For Calm Spirit you can sprint around Hags traps without setting them off. It should also have you vomit way less and you don’t scream in Infectious Fright. Also whispers range is shortened for you.

    Whispers is easier to use the shorter the range btw

    Maybe not the calm spirit change, but having hag traps not trigger when walking might be nice.

    Calm Spirit already works against infectious fright. It works against all screaming triggers.

    Less puking doesn't make sense. From a biological standpoint or a lore standpoint.

    FYI, you don't scream against Infectious Fright when you use Calm Spirit. It also hides your bubble aura from Rancor and Iron Maiden. It hides your screams/aura bubble from Doc, Clown, and Freddy snares. Not disturbing crows is way more powerful than people want to acknowledge, especially against better killers that will look for crows flying.

    The only thing Calm Spirit needs to do is remove screams when you fall from heights and reduce Killer Instinct effect duration. I could get behind making it so you don't trigger Hag traps while walking, but I also don't feel it's that necessary.

    Sabo needs some changes I will agree with that. Not a rework, but something to make it worth using, as it's pretty useless. Have it reveal hooks within 12m or something, just give it more utility.

    There's a serious difference between not screaming, and literally disabling Hag's entire power. That rework is just unbalanced as hell.

    That Hag thing its not that good of an idea. That would simply kill the killer since she's basically 100 relying on her traps to do something. She cannot loop or chase efficiently without them. Flashlights already destroy her, so that's ultra unbalanced.

    I understand that people at lower ranks don't see that and don't value calm spirit as it is, but imo it's good enough right now.

    Sabo could get changed for sure tho. And I think that the idea ppl said above showing the hooks auras for example would make it better already

    Can't agree more for changing the saboteur!

    long long ago, in the fog, there were many survivors wandering around. they were not willing to do the gen rush,instead, they did sabotage, breaking hooks and trapper's bear traps.those people haven't do the right things yet, but they were so happy becauz the killer could not hook them!

    but now, these guys disappear! becauz they forget how to sabotage fast, and get sacrificed...
