Crazy Open Handed Rework Idea
What if Open Handed was reworked to share Aura visions with others within 20m of you?
If you're running an Aura perk, nearby survivors also get the benefit. And if your teammates are running an Aura perk, you get to see the vision as well. Makes a really cool Wild Card slot of a perk. Very thematic with Ace.
One of the great things about the new version of the perk is that it can have value by itself, but still has its niche of being a combo perk.

This sounds great, except when you think of one perk.
OoO. Even though I love this perk, Open handed would make this ridiculously over powered.
Additionally some perks it would be useless with, such as Aftercare.
It's a nice idea but still seems like it would be abused heavily in SWF with OoO. My Idea for Open Handed would be to reveal the closest chest, totem, and generator every time a generator is completed along with the bonus 8 meters to aura reading ranges. It fits the theme of always having options available to you, but it would be a little too similar to Detectives Hunch so idk.
To be fair, if I had to choose between leaving Open Handed as-is and re-working Object of Obsession, that's a pretty easy choice for me.
SWFs have voice chat most of the time, which is infinitely more OP combo'd with Object using my version of Open Handed.
Because they can have info on the Killer anywhere on the map with chat and with my perk they'd have to be within 20m
I like the idea it would be nice if I'm using something like alert and someone can see where the killer is if they're close to me.
However my one problem with this idea is as a lot of people have pointed out object of obsession it would essentially give people around me free view of the killer without them being spotted.
