My Idea for Up the Ante - Make it a gamble!
In my opinion, Up the Ante should be a high-risk high-reward perk. Here's my idea on what it could look like:
For each 20 seconds you are in a chase, gain 1 Token up to 5 Tokens. The following effects are applied based on the amount of Tokens:
- 2 Tokens: Gain a 5% boost to Healing, Sabotage, Unhooking, Cleansing, Opening Exit Gates, and Chest Search speeds for each Token. This effect is applied to the next nearest Survivor for each additional Token you have. Survivors can only be affected by one Up the Ante effect at a time.
- 3 Tokens: You and the nearest Survivor's Auras are revealed to each other. This effect is applied to the next nearest survivor for each additional Token you have.
- 4 Tokens: You become Exhausted.
- 5 Tokens: Your Aura is revealed to the Killer. Gain a 5/6/7% Haste Status Effect while not in chase.
If you are hit by the Killer or put into the Dying State, you lose all Tokens and progress toward your next Token.
This way, the perk retains its original team-buffing concept while making it more useful and risky. You could try to lose the chase and settle for 2 or 3 Tokens, but you could also go for the full 5-token effect while putting yourself at risk.
What do you guys think?
