WGLF Buff

I agree with you, cause after you get all stacks on WGFF it becomes useless on our current, this would give it a purpose

How about you get the ability to see the killers aura for so many seconds after an unhook.

I'd limit it to the rescuer and maybe the person being unhooked.

Working off of this post, Kindred and WGLF should both recieve buffs, like this:

Kindred - While hooked, reveals all survivors auras to eachother, and the Killers aura within 16 meters of the hook. This effect remains 10 seconds after being unhooked.

WGLF - When unhooking or taking a hit for another survivor, gain a stack, up to four. Each stack gives 25% extra post-game bloodpoints. When unhooking, all survivors' auras are revealed to eachother for 20 seconds.

I have a problem with it being "on hit" auras are provided. If it's going to be like BBQ than it should be triggered the same, on hook.

I have no problem with all survivors seeing all survivors AND the killer for four seconds, while the killer sees nothing different, every time a survivors with WGLF is hooked, but hit, I think that's a bit too much.

One survivor can take 6 hits (minimum, without any heals)....that's 24 seconds of auras from ONE survivor. At that point you start running into overlapping perks like Kindred and Bond.

Unless you think the killer running BBQ should be able to see all survivor auras for 4 seconds every time they get a hit.

I'm not a fan of hyperbole, but sometimes it has to be considered for the possibility of WGLF becoming meta. Minimum auras of 24 seconds x 4 survivors is a 1 minutes and a half GPS for everyone against the killer. And that's a minimum, that doesn't even take into consideration a hit, a heal, a hit, a heal, a hit, a heal.

At least "on hook" relegates it to 12 seconds per survivor.

it would be necessary to modify the basic concept, that it is not only also to crochet and to encourage the players to other action, for example to break a totem, and thus to encourage a real work of group. a lot of player is ready to take down just to get the stack and puts the player off the hook in a difficult position.

I think they should take a completely different route. I would like to see the bloodpoint gain components removed from both BBQ and WGLF. I would then like to see a new mechanic introduced to the base game. Let's call it "Entity's Favor" for now.

Killers would earn Entity's Favor tokens for each unique survivor they hook with a 25% bonus to all bloodpoints gained per token. (same as BBQ)

Survivor's would earn Entity's Favor tokens for each generator they complete, survivor safe unhook, or pallet stun on killer to a maximum of 4 tokens. Each token would increase the total bloodpoints earned by 25% per token.

BBQ would just do the aura component after hooking a survivor. WGLF could change to anything they want, but I would recommend something like "Whenever you unhook another survivor both you and the unhooked survivor do not leave blood trails, scratch marks, and move 4% faster for 4/5/6 seconds."

The purpose of all this is 2 fold. One, it would help deal with the rather absurd bloodpoint grind this game has. Two, it would help increase perk diversity.

Being able to see all the other survivors and the killer would be about 4 times as powerful as BBQ since it doesn't have a range limit and can't be blocked by other auras. And having all the survivors get the vision would be 4 times that so a total of 16 times as powerful. Meanwhile, killer perks are supposed to be around 4 times as powerful as survivor perks to compensate for the number difference (even though this is rarely the case).

A more balanced benefit to WGLF would be if it made the aura of the person running it visible to all the other survivors when proc'ed.

That's not why WGLF was nerfed. It was nerfed because the prior numbers caused a lot of hook farming teammates. And even then, it didn't help that much. The new safe hook rescue is the proper solution to reduce hook farming.

Honestly, WGLF and BT would need to be combined to make a BBQ equiv.

other ideas that would work include.

Make it an exhaustion perk. Give you and the unhooked person a 150% speed boost for 3 seconds. This will help them get to somepleace to heal, TOGETHER.

Make it like Hope: 6-9% speed increase for 20-30 seconds after unhook. (you pick the scaling and who this effects, both, or just one survivor since it could work with any combination and i don't want to choose just one)

@Peanits How about this? Give the perk the ability to help with a safe unhook. Just like BBQ helps you get that next hook for the stack.
