Unlocks potential in one's Aura reading ability. When completing a Generator, the Auras of Generators, Chests and Totems within 48/64/∞ metres are revealed to you for 10 seconds.

  • If you are holding a Map that can track Objectives, Generators, Chests and Totems revealed by Detective's Hunch are added to the Map.

    So you wanna increase aura reading time? Well it‘s still gonna be a bad perk.

    People say that some perk are bad because they dont see the potential of it, and know that there is better/op perks that gonna make your gameplay more easy to play

    EDIT: I also change the map tracking

    So basically, if you hold a map, you score 4k points from scouting just by holding it and repairing a gen ?
    Meh. It's not very interesting nor well-though.

    I'm not sure what they expected with that perk. If you're able to repair a gen, the scouting you get from it is usually rather unnecessary unless you like totem hunting. And for the totem hunting, you're just better using small game.

    A similar buff could be making the range 32/64/infinite like Empathy, and then making the duration 10 or more seconds.

    I do feel the duration is too short. The auras are overwhelming, so I have to stand still and try to take it all in. I generally ignore the generator auras, as those are easy to find (unless it's The Game or Treatment Theatre), and focus on chests and totems. If I also have Dark Sense equipped then I only have enough time to see what the Killer's doing or see where the chests and totems are, but not both.
