Pop is too strong.

JoeyBob

It should only for the first hook. As it is now, it causes way too much pressure. It's better than like 90% of the other killer perks, which just illustrates how much a nerf is needed.

OK, this has to be bait. However, if you ARE actually this stupid, let me throw some math at you.

Kicking a gen with Pop regresses the gen by 25%, or 20 seconds for a single survivor. However, this does not buy you 20 seconds. You still have to make your way to the gen. Let's talk best case scenario hero. Let's say the gen is right beside the hook. Walking over to it takes about, say, 3 seconds. Then, you have to kick the gen, which takes 2 seconds by default. Now you're down to 15 seconds you gained, or 18.75% while 3 other survivors are still doing gens. Every second a survivor is on gens, let's just ignore skillchecks, progresses the gen by 1.25%. 5 seconds x 1.25 progress per second x 3 survivors = 18.75%. Subtract the progress survivors get while you get to the gen to pop it from the time you gain from Popping the gen, you gain a total of 0 seconds. So, essentially, Pop just reverts the progress made in 5 seconds by 3 survivors, but only on a single generator. And this is best case scenario. In the best case scenario, kicking a gen with Pop is just as worthless as facecamping.

Complain about a Killer perk again. I'll show you why you're wrong.

20 seconds is an eternity for survivors.

If it were balanced it wouldn't of been nerfed.

Actually it's really balanced, it rewards killer for making a good play, not like cought DS cought..

DS works as intended. It prevents killers from tunneling.

It's no fun as survivor if you get hooked twice within 60 seconds.

Repressed Alliance stops pop. Sometimes it confuses the killer into wasting time arguing with the entity by trying to kick the gen anyway. Also great for punishing potato teammates that miss too many skill checks. Criminally under rated perk.

It's not op, pop exists because gen speeds are way too fast. It's one of the only effective perks that can be used to stop gen rushing.

A 15 second nerf does nothing. You can hit any gen on the map with 45 seconds. Maybe if they reduced the perk to 10 seconds it would be better.

Good god no.

But I will say that I never understood why they buffed it from its original 30 second duration. 30 seconds was sufficient, and taught better map control habits.

so should DS be 30 sec.

I don't think it's overpowered, I don't even get to use Pop everytime it's available. More often than not, I only get to use it a few times because I'm too busy in a chase or tracking down survivors.

If someone was so dedicated to pop everytime they could, I don't know if it'd be beneficial. With decent survivors, the killer would lose them by tunneling gens and it'd be easier for survivors to recover from.

DS works as it should, it punishes killers who tunnel.
