Necessary „The Plague“ buff - suggestion

the biggest „downer“ as a plague player is when nobody cleanses himself. So here a little suggestion to force a little more cleaning.

Give the infection on level 2 the effect „hindered survivors by 5%“ - this way the survivors are „forced“ to clean them if they want to loop by full speed.

    I don't think Plague needs that. She already starts with one corrupted pool + every plague runs thanatophobia. Survivors who reject to cleanse simply don't want to give her power in trade of staying injured and doing gens slower. Most plagues I go against run thana, plaything, pentimento, dying light or other regressing perks. Penti and thana themselves make gens take 180s. She can still use her corrupted pool in valuable situation or run apple add ons. But let's be honest 99.9 % Plagues run double iri to boost her further. And iridescent seal itself is one of the strongest add ons in the game currently.

  • The downside of not cleansing is that you are always injured and will be very vulnerable when she uses her starter pool, on top of that 3 of her best addons will give her more uses of the power without anyone cleansing (the iri seal and the 2 apples)

  • I think it would be useful, but if it’s to much as base kit give it to her as add on to her power, so she has to spend one add on slot to make it possible … that would be a fair trade I guess
