Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance

At the start of the Trial, 4 random hooks are changed into Scourge Hooks:

  • The Auras of Scourge Hooks are revealed to you in white.

Each time a Survivor is hooked on a Scourge Hook, the following effects are applied:

  • The Generator with the most progression will instantly explode, regressing it by 9%/12%/15%, unless a Survivor is on that Generator.
  • Survivors currently repairing that Generator will face a difficult skill check. Any Survivor that fails that Skill Check will regress that Generator by the aforementioned amount and knock them off of the Generator.
  • Survivors that succeed that Skill Check will prevent the regression of that Generator, but will not gain any progress.

Only one instance of a Skill Check failure will apply to the Generator at any time.

Comments

  • Ah, my reward for finding, downing and carrying a survivor to a scourge hook is to uhhhh.... Give one survivor, somewhere, a skill check. Seems worth it.

  • That's just turning Pain Resonance into a worse Overcharge.

    IMO, PR isn't the meta regression perk that needs a nerf right now - Eruption is. PR is only dangerous if your teammates keep going down one after another next to a scourge hook, and if that's the case, you have bigger problems than your gen getting nuked. And PR/DMS is telegraphed and can easily be avoided.

  • If pain resonance got a small nerf I wouldn’t be against it, however this is way too much.
