Nerf key drop rate!

Since a few weeks I see a rise in key drop rate for chests. Key's are unfair especially if you do you job good as killer, you get easily robbed by a keyI wouldn't mention if they were "rare" but it feels they aren't no more. Just my opinion.

    I mean i had a game where i lootet two Rainbow maps without plunderers sooo. If keys are bothering you take Franklin's. And with the tome giving you the quest to Plunder what do you expect, ofc there are a lot of keys.

    You notice the increasing of keys being in the game bc people actually plunder. But im telling you i get engineers toolboxes like a lot.

    But there are Situations where you can't really do about this,like mine was. I was looking around for Survivor's, they opened a chest without in my terror radius and I couldn't hear them and they instantly got the hatch. And 1 perk slot for Franklin's... I don't know because swf can easily say where the key is.It is like a hidden eboni mori lol

    Yeah it's silly. I farm kits sometimes with pharmacy, plunderers, ace in the hole and the amount of keys i get is ridiculous. RNG escapes are lame.

    I have no problem with Keys as their equivalent is Mori's. Both of which are frankly unfun to go against but it's alright. But you shouldn't find a key in a chest at all is my opinion to be frank.

    franklins is useless against keys, because they can just find the hatch, get the key then escape through the hatch. and you used a perk for franklins to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. unless franklins just straight up DELETED ITEMS it is not worth the slot

    Well its obvious youre seeing an increase in keys - its the only survivor item worth a damn anymore! Prior to this people would run plunders and Ace in the hole for good medkits, etc but now that insta heals were nerfed, why waste 2 perks when plunders could net you a key instead?

    Besides, we cant really complain about keys when moris exist and seem far more common imho

    Both Perks doesn't guarantee you a key Ace in the hole is only for the addons. Yeah Mori should be reworked too please.
