Please nerf BBQ :(

...not because it's OP but because I don't wanna feel like a moron anymore for not using it on every build... why would anyone want to skip on double bloodpoints. I'd say just remove the bloodpoint bonuses or heavily reduce them... killers dont need it anyway imho, as Killer its way easier to get a lot bloodpoints fast compared to survivor.


It's actually a perk that is NOT required in order to win a hard match unlike Ruin, but where you just feel stupid if you dont use it... even if you dont wanna use it. Pretty boring imo.


Even with just the aura reading it would still see some use I think. Very good information and super strong on Nurse or Hillbilly

    Most killers are dependant on add ons. Even with bbq I feel like I'm always short on bloodpoints.

    I use it for the BP stacks.

    I'm usually forgetting I can swing around and see whose aura is revealed.

    This depends a lot on what character you play and how good you are with it. Pig for example is horrible for getting bloodpoints. But with most of them I get 20k bloodpoints before one survivor even has 10k bloodpoints.

    BBQ, offerings and sometimes perks like Distressing or Beast of Prey all at once just put the bloodpoint gains into an astronomical level that would require me multiple survivor matches to reach the same BP count.. even with offerings or We're gonna Live forever

    Yeah I agree. I always feel forced to use it and it’s so hard to just remove it for a perk that suits my build better at the cost of 50% my BPs. I don’t know what to suggest but that’s always been a problem in my head. Survivor’s version of this is WGLF which is fine because it does nothing to the gameplay, so you choose to sacrifice a perk slot to gain more BPs and that feels way more balanced to me. Always thought BBQ should be 2 different perks.

    Please tell me you're joking. You're making yourself sound like an entitled person.

    Killers need the extra bp to assist in the grind. I've seen people complain about the aura reading, but never about the bp, so that's a first.

    But really, why should you care about BP bonus? It doesn't effect the game itself at all, just the points you gain after the trial.

    I actually love BBQ on all my killers, the extra BP is definitely a bonus and the information it gives me during a match is perfect. It's outplayable by lockers or walking a way after a few seconds as a survivor so I feel that it's a very balanced perk and really doesn't need any changes right now.

    I think they should buff the stack gain on bbq even further to discourage tunneling while still making it worth the killers time to not do so. So like for not hooking the same person twice in a row after four you get an additional bp %

    So because you don't want to feel like a moron, you're asking the developers to nerf it for everyone?

    Please tell me you're not serious.

    This HAS to be a joke. Why is BBQ the new thing? Is this some meta thing im not getting? Like, are we making fun of the people that wanna nerf everything with these kinda posts?

    The only change that I wouldn’t mind is the BP bonus being removed from the perk and becoming baseline for all Killers. The aura reading is fine.
