Since the DS change ideas are a trend atm heres mine:

So I would it change to be an actual good anti tunneling perk and not this mess it is right now:

  1. No more skillchecks (if its active it gets you free)
  2. 2 time use
  3. 20/25/30 seconds active
  4. Stops being active if you perform an action besides healing yourself or specific things like jigsaw boxes (actions that would deactivate the perk would be touching gens, totems, unhooking people, healing other people gettig protection hits! etc)
  5. Also when slugged while DS is still active the timer resets to 30 seconds and you can pick yourself up with the soulguard effect
  6. Deactivates the timer if someone else was hooked while you are NOT in the dying state
  7. Doesnt work anymore when the exit gates are powered
  8. While in an 8m radius around the killer the timer stops

These changes would benefit survivors and killers compared to the current DS:

Survivors:

  1. You have a good weapon against actual hardcore tunneling
  2. You dont need the unbreakable combo anymore and have a spare perk slot
  3. you dont have to hit a skillcheck (new player friendly and lags dont ######### it up anymore)

Killers:

  1. No more "I hooked 2 other people and still got hit by DS"
  2. No more "haha i can do a gen in your face for 60 seconds and you cant stop me without losing pressure"
  3. No more "Its endgame collapse but we can get our mate without a risk because we have DS"

Just a protection perk, nothing more. If people will try to get into the killers face with DS active the killer knows they can down them but they will pick themselves up.

How could it be abused:

Killers could just wait the timer out and follow the survivor until DS runs out.

solution: If killers play like that you can just run into his face because the timer stops when youre 8m near the killer.

Survivors could just run into your face with it:

Solution: you slug them as fast as possible and know you have 30 seconds active on the DS from now.

The old BT bodyblock unhooking in the killers face playstyle.

Solution:

DS deactivates on a protection hit, so if you gain BT and have DS dont bodyblock for the person who farmed you off the hook in the killers face.

Thats my two cents for the topic :)

have fun hating this post

    Oh, I know people could infenetely gain DS effect whith the reset mechanic when slugged, however this playstyle will not be benefitial to your team because you cant perform any actions and will be slugged have of the time.

    I also forgot: DS expires when every other person is on the hook or dead.

    But i think thats all
