Missed Opportunity with Trickster perk

The devs missed an opportunity to make a perk named Chiroptophobia (fear of bats), since the Trickster wields a bat (tho the Doctor wielded it first).

Chiroptophobia: A portion of the crows on the map are replaced with bats. Survivors who disturb bats will scream and suffer from the Exposed Status Effect for 30 seconds. Their location is revealed to you for 4 seconds. Bats and crows return 30%/40%/50% sooner.

    What would be the point of Spies from The Shadows existing then?

  • What's the point of Spies existing now?

  • This sounds oppressive af. Also, as @TheClownIsKing said, will there ever be a reason to run Spies over this?

  • Spies can be a decent perk over Whispers for new players. Whispers is a much better perk but takes time to learn how to use it while Spies is more easy to use.

  • Fine.

    All crows are replaced with bats. Survivors who disturb bats suffer action speed penalties for 20/25/30 secs

    They work excellently together actually.

    Like Spine Chill can alert a survivor, and then Premonition can be used to pin point, Whispers can be used to know where to search, with Spies allowing the killer to pin point.

    That sounds pretty powerful. Maybe too powerful. They'd probably want to save that for a vampire killer, anyways.
