Vault damage immunity perk

Simply put, a perk that has 3 tokens. After you go into the animation of vaulting, you are immune to damage. Can't tell you how many times I've gone through a window, taken a few steps forward and still have the killer land his hit on me from the other side of the window. Thoughts from people who actually play survivor?

    Not a good idea, as it can be easily abused.

    Yep I've seen a hatchet pass right through a survivor that was vaulting lol

    Sounds terrible to be honest. Three times you can force the killer to waste time at a strong loop even though they actually would've gotten the hit. Almost every map has a good jungle gym or window where you can make use of this.

    Oh hell no this would be such a broken perk even with only one token. There's too many places where it can be abused. Time is extremely important as a Killer.

    I really wish they would do something about phantom hits after windows. It happens way too often, but I don't know that this is a good solution. Goes to far in the other direction in my opinion.

    Yeah, that’s 3 free hits, for one perk. It’s like dead hard, but actually works on dedicated servers. You can always mind game a vault, but the perk sounds too powerful.

    When you get hit through a window the killer was too close to you when you vaulted

    I know it looks wonky getting hit 3 steps away from a window but that's just the way it is now

    You should make sure you have plenty of distance before trying a window, the killer is closer then they seem

    Any perk that gives free hits is a massive danger zone because of the snowball nature of this game

    One missed hit in the beginning can lead to the difference between a 4k or an all escape

    Try running Resilience + Spine Chill. The 15% or whatever extra vault speed might seem small but it honestly feels amazing to use and lets you get away with some greedy vaults.
