Lets say you "hate" bodyblocking (taking a hit for someone, bodyblocking a hook, etc.) and you want to have some protection againts it or punish it when it happends. Which perk(s) would you pick?

STBFL, Mad grit
Agitation, starstruck, forced penance, mad grit, iron grasp. If only one I would choose Agitation
Starstruck, Mad Grit, Agitation/Iron Grasp
Forced Penance can be quite useful when playing against a 4 medkit lobby ready to take 73 hits.
but Agitation is the most consistent one and makes sabotaging hooks against you useless doesn't matter how many hits survivors takes you will still be able to reach a hook just beceause of how fast you are,moving at 107 while carrying a survivor is no joke and can catch silly survivors trying to sabo hooks/take hits off-guard.
The ironic thing is bodyblocking actually can hurt the survivors because the bodyblockers aren’t working on generators. You’re tying up two survivors in a single chase versus just one. I’ve watched some of these PTB matches where the survivors are all gung-ho for bodyblocking over and over and they throw the match in the process because not enough of them stayed on the gens. Especially where the gens now take 90 seconds and a bunch of killer regression perks got buffed if 2 or 3 survivors are goofing around instead of pushing gens and it takes depending on the build up to 2 1/2 minutes to complete a gen solo it doesn’t matter how many times a survivor blocks a hit, they’re going to lose it they’re not being time efficient.
My guess is the smartest survivors are the ones who will see the Endurance boosts as benefits against getting quickly downed two or three times in a row but don’t actively waste those blocks on meme plays following a killer around for pointless block attempts. The survivors who just chase the killer around and throw away their Endurance when they don’t need to will get trounced by the killers who play good macro games. I’m not scared of rampant bodyblockers, the survivors I think will be tough to go against will be the ones who know not to bodyblock unless it’s actually a really useful play.
