Survivor Perk idea
False Trail
Pressing the secondary action button causes a set of scratch marks to extend 10 meters in the direction the survivor is facing. This perk has a cooldown of 60/50/40 seconds.
Balance: I see this as the reverse of Dance With Me. It would definitely reward mind games and stealth play.
Comments
This seems like a lot of fun, but the cooldown might be too low. It's almost a get out of jail free card, if you manage to loose line of sight.
Based on the numbers you use, it follows the exhaustion perks. For "logic" and balance, i suppose it could be an exhaustion perk. You spend energy to "kick a trail of dust in the wrong direction".
Matched with Adams pebble throw, dance with me, and quick and quiet, this would probably fool anyone.
As stealth moves closer and closer to becoming no longer part of the game this might be kind of fun to play with. I do think that with this game every perk needs a counter on the other side. Maybe Predator doesn't fall for the false trail.
