Boil over buff

Boil over should get a 25% increase to the 75% wiggle struggle effects so that makes it 100% more wiggle effect on the killer and buff the numbers of the hiding hook aura by like 8 meters, from 14 to like 22. It shouldnt get buffed too much cause a killer bringing people to hooks is a big part of this game.

Aye, I don't think it'd be game-breaking to buff it a little. I still run it on Kate just because I think it makes the Killers sweat a little more while carrying me haha, but out of many games with it on, I think I only got free maybe once. I've come close to getting free many times however...so that little buff would definitely help.

I can agree with buffing Boil Over, and I also agree that caution should be taken as it's kind of a dangerous Perk to potentially put in an overpowered spot. Personally though, I would prefer giving Boil Over something new, as I'm not sure there's much of a future in solely buffing the numbers behind what it does already.

What would that be? Honestly, not sure, but I'll spitball some possibilities:

• While in the Dying State or being carried by the Killer, all Pallets within X meters are highlighted for all Survivors.
• Slows the Killer's pick-up animation by X%.
• The Killer suffers X% increased missed attack penalty while carrying you. (or, MAYBE missed attacks apply a flat extra bonus to the wiggle meter? I'm leaning to the former idea though, as I prefer Mad Grit countering this, than this countering Mad Grit, as Killer perks usually hard counter Survivor perks and not the other way around)
