5th Perk for Survivor and Killers
At a certain level you stop getting perks and it just becomes a grind. I think that as the killer and survivor progress devs should look at adding a 5th perk to the slots. One that balances everything out. Ive been thinking about posting this for some time. And finally decided that ya I should recommend it.

No, thank you. I'd rather not have to deal with five crutch perks instead of the usual four. If this were a Killer-only thing, it'd be one step towards balancing the game, but for Survivors, given the current state of affairs? No thanks.

5 for killer, yes.
5 for survivor? Hell no

For Killer, yes, even if it’s limited to only hex perks. This way Killers can use four perks. Ruin gets destroyed so soon that you’re basically playing with three perks.
For Survivor, no. They already have enough good perks (at least two of them are crutches). If you need five perks as a Survivor, then you need to get good.5 -
lol cant be one sided all. That throws balance off. I know that some survivors are better at things than others and better against certain killers than others but that's also true for some killers against some survivors. I see where some killers are coming from but that also depends on the group make up. I have had survivors with solid purple flashlights and its annoying as can be but I think if done appropriately it can work on all sides. Cant just give killer a fifth perk and not the survivors and vice versa. Well they can but not my recommendation lol

You need to rethink your definition of balance in a 4v1 game. That would effectively add 1 perk slot to killers and 4 slots to survivors. No thanks!5

Well they can but not my recommendation lolThe thing is though, even if survivors didnt get a 5th perk slot, they would still VASTLY outnumber the killer
Survivor ( in total ): 16 perks
Killer ( with 5 perks ): 5 PerksIt is a far more needed change for killer than survivor

YEs but the survivors never know which killer or perks the others have up and vice versa. The exception is SWF which I dodge at all costs.

So 20 crustches for survivors, and 5 mediocre at best perks for killers. No, thank you.

I would rather than a 5th perk slot, offering a default power for the both of them. Bake in dead hard for Survivors and pop goes the weasel for killers kind of thing. Maybe not those two for sure but as an idea.

Ah good old killers still complaining survivors use the same meta perks while 99% of the killers run BBQ, Ruin and NC.
I understand killers arent in a favourite position right now but a lot can be achieved by changing other things than current perks.

Are you aware that you are actually LYING?
Stats back up that survivor use the same perks far more often than killer.
Killer use a wider variety and more different perks than survivor.
Sorry to bust your bubble, but if you have no clue what you are talking about, don't throw around random numbers.And btw you 3 named killer perks are all way weaker than the holy trinity (SC, SB, DS).

Self cafe is used by a solid like 23%, multiplied by 4 for the survivors, it’s really 92%. BBQ is 99%. That’s basically every single killer, in existence.

I'm pretty sure you can't just add stuff up in statistics.
By your logic, if 10% of all people have a sixth toe, then putting ten of them in the same room means that all people (10x10) have a sixth toe.
Sorry, it'S pedantic day for my religion today.

He means that 23% of all perk slots are Self Care (according to the devs). Since you can't equip a perk more than once, that means 4*23% of all Survivors are using Self Care.

please keep it respectful......Everyone is going to have different ideas of balancing the game and bringing new things to it. WE may not always all agree, but being respectful is important.
