Whose Kindred?

Is there a way of knowing whose Kindred is active while another survivor who has it equipped is on the hook? 


If another player is on the hook and they have Kindred equipped, I’d prefer to know if the others can see everyone’s auras or if I’m the only one that can see theirs because mine activated.


Thanks in advance.

    I don't think it really matters. You're getting information regardless. Kindred tells you exactly when you should be going for saves or be working on gens. Such a beautiful perk.

    Unfortunately I don't think you can tell if you have kindred also.

    It would be nice to have the information that someone else is running kindred as well. After all, information is power in this game.

    1 status icon if your own kindred is active and an additional one for someone else's would be sweet

    Kindred should be run by all solo survivors. It's infinitely valuable.

    Definitely a perk worth equipping, yup. I guess it just puts me at ease when I know whether the others see the auras as well so we can work collectively, as opposed to just me seeing them and expecting them to eventually go for the save when I’m too far from the hook.

    This would be a great way to differentiate.
