Just a little idea, u need to put the perk in lobby what do u want when u loose for example ruin, so u loose ruin then, you got the perk u choice in the lobby, sorry for my grammar... very sad i know
PD: i said this idea because ruin in so many games is detroyed in the firts minutes or in the firts 60 seconds

    Well that would almost be like having a 5th perk.
    Rethink this idea, you're onto something!

    I’d honestly just prefer hex’s as offerings because I mostly play survivor but sometimes I spawn right next to one so the match would be over in like 5min I’d think it would playing killer better and survivor more intense IMO

    Hex perks could each come with some kind of lesser cleansed effect. Maybe Ruin's would be that once cleansed skill check success zones are reduced by 25% or something. Getting to pick an entirely new perk to replace it is ridiculously OP.

    I have another idea.. what if cleansing a hex totem only removes the negative effects for that survivor? Each survivor would have to take the time to cleanse it themselves. That would mean a hex couldn't instantly be rendered useless 30 seconds into the match. There also wouldn't be that hex cleansed notification until all remaining survivors cleanse the hex (maybe just the killer could get a smaller notification).

    Even if it's a SWF team with communication that's a lot of extra time they need to waste getting to the hex and cleansing it once one of them finds it and the killer would better be able to defend it.

    I got not great idea.What if hex totems don't burn and look like normal dull totem? This of curse make killer to use only 1 hex per game but surv start destroy all totems.What buy some time killer.

    Hey I loke that idea. Heres my idea for each perk

    Ruin - 50% reduced success zones and 10% chance for ruin skillcheck

    Lulluby - Lose 1 token and do not gain more tokens

    Third seal - Only one person blind at a time

    Noed - Keep 2% movement speed

    Devour Hope - Lose 2 tokens and cannot gain more

    Thrill of the Hunt - Lose speed debuff but keep notification

    But arent hex totems suppose to be high risk high reward perks? This is why they are hexes and not normal perks right?

    Hexes are high risk high reward perks. This suggestion just kills their nature.

    The only improvement I want is that the killer must be able to choose his/her hex location and hex totem should be active even if the killer doesn't choose a location for the first 30 seconds of the game. After that, if there is still no location, It should become inactive as long as there is no hex totem on the map. NOED should still be random.

    Looks like i found the latest Killer Circle jerk. So you want the killer to get basically 5 perks? The bonus being after Hex ruin gets broke. How is it every platform has rank 1 killers every month if the game is this hard for you?

    Except that they're high risk low reward. If Survivors can ignore a perk (which they can in the case of Ruin), it's not worth using.

    I really like the idea of the totem having a trap effect for the censer, for the other survivors and not the cleanser, or even just a smaller effect once cleansed. Unless hex's are very much better hidden, they really are not effective of their role of prolonging the game to get survivors to search for them. From what I see mostly its oh hey a totem... free points \o/ .. as it stands now.

    We don't need all these changes to hex ruin. All they need to do is either just hide them better, make dummy hexes or like one comment suggested, just make them look like ordinary hexes.

    I think this is an excellent idea , my idea with replacing the totem yourself after it breaks would’ve been too time consuming and rendered totems useless as survivors would cleanse them all early, but the immediate perk transfer of your choice is fair in my book but only for ruin and not devour hope or the other hex perks

    Giving a debuff to the cleanser is the way to go. There needs to be consequences to every action the survivor makes. Playing survivor shouldn’t be a walk in the park. 

    this make sense

    Yeah. There is a consequence you know what? You need to cleanse the whole totem without stopping. It leaves you free to get grabbed (if you aren't paying attention/determined to get the totem) or hit
    The only problem is the spawning of totems and survivors and killers

    Only survivors get second chances and backups. Deal with it.

    If you mean for example DS, Adrenaline they are one use and they are gone.
    Now i can't wait till i get commented back :chuffed:

    I don't think this would work. You would basically have no reason to take anything other than hex perks, if that was the case. You could run all hex perks to get a strong early game (ruin, devour hope, TOTH, wildcard fourth perk), then have all endgame perks set as backups. You'd basically have double the perks.

    The point of hex perks is to provide you with more powerful perks that can be destroyed unless you defend them. Some killers have an easier time defending them than others (hag, hillbilly, nurse) due to their mobility. Having backup perks sorta' eliminates any downside to having a hex perk in the first place, giving you powerful perks that get replaced with other good perks if you destroy them.
