Remove DS skillchecks while we're getting these bad FPS drops, or permanently

When FPS drops on PS4 during skillchecks(which has been happening a lot recently with the most recent patches), and DS is activated, it's a big FU because the tunneler still gets to hook you again with no downside.

NORMALLY. the skillcheck is pointless anyways and you hit it every time, so I see no problem with removing the skillcheck and making it automatic to begin with. I've had 3 games where this has happened.

    But removing skill checks will make some perks useless like Hex: Ruin. Which is popular when looking at killer builds people use. For the doctor, his power can make the skill check gauge shake when affect with his power, which pro will still hit it every time, but some players can miss it. I also play on ps4 and have problems too hitting it when frames drop but i atleast still hit 70% of them.

    I'm not talking about every skillcheck, just DS. Frame drops during skillchecks for DS are extremely penalizing, because one, you don't get to punish tunneling, and two, you never get to use your DS again in the extremely likely event they tunnel a second time. You'd already normally hit the DS skillcheck, but while frames are dropping, you don't because of that. The skill check is basically pointless, might as well remove it.
