Worst perk ever

Ok I have to get this out my system because it's been making me so angry I just can't deal with it. I'm sorry but self care is the worst perk ever! People who run self care are so careless and annoying. If you are on a hook and other survivors are injured you know they will not rescue you immediately. They will heal themselves up slowly then rescue you even though (in my opinion) rescuing survivors and healing each other up is quicker. I'm sorry I'm bringing in negativity right now because I hate doing that but I hope some of you understand what I mean.

    Not all players do the same. It now depends on each player whether or not he wants to risk it. Selfcare it's just a perk. Just because some people don't play as you wish, that doesn't mean it's the perk's fault.

    I know dude but it's just pointless healing yourself slower than normal. If someone brought a medkit with self care then that is totally fine

    The new Oni's perk, Zanshin Tactics, begs to differ.

    If you know the killer is around it would be bad for the team to go in injured, unless you are really self confident in escaping and not getting downed right beneath the hook. People running selfcare I would guess are not the perfect loopers. So don't blame them on self care over unhooking. You can blame them if you stand beside them and they don't stop selfcaring. Or When someone else is in a chase, self caring over doing a safe gen.

    And: you DONT HAVE TO get unhooked 'immediately'. I actualy hate insta unhooks. You have a minute, in which you could finish half a gen. I hate when I'm sitting on a gen with someone else and Prove Thyself and the other guy jumps off the gen the second someone is downed.

    For years I didn't do Self Care, but I do now because people say it stacks with Botany Knowledge. I disagree, it doesn't seem 33% (or any) faster at all, but whatever. If I had to remove one I'd remove Self Care, but I'm tired of running around injured and easy prey all the time.
