Reduce the grind again.
Basic killer/survivor skills like Sloppy and Kindred should default to tier 3 for all characters.
The player must already grind 3 special skills 3 times (P1, P2, P3) for each new character unlocked or not yet leveled or save 12000 shards to obtain a tier 3 skill (by buying it 3 times) via the store.
Plus there are the killer add-ons to save in order to enjoy.
This current version is too much for a new player but he will get used to it because the unique skills will be acquired once and for all.
But the basic skills grind is not warranted.
Give them in tier 3 directly.
And it would reduce the grind more effectively.
Nobody wants to waste their time again systematically looking for sloppy and kindred 3 times in a row on these characters.

My own idea for additional grind reduction, specifically to benefit new players, was have the basekit PC characters start at Prestige 1, so newbies had access to all their perks.
Adding or substituting the General perks may be a good alternative.
Take my upvote. It kind of works with a rarity rework that may happen..?
(The prestige changes have made rare add-ons/items even more rare, so there might be a re-balance).
