    Distortion screws over I'm All Ears hard. Rather than see their aura, they just become completely stealthy after vaulting. The perk is basically a hinderance to you against a Distortion user.

    I think letting it burn through tokens is a fair compromise honestly. And even then, you just regain both tokens before IAE is off cool-down anyway so it makes no difference anyway.

    The perk seems perfect now. The OG was way too easy to get tokens that you were basically immune to auras and the 30 second chase requirement was too high. 15 seconds seems like a perfect compromise between having to actually interact with the killer and be rewarded for playing well while still letting the killer play around it.

    i mean the purpose of Distortion is to counter things like Im All Ears granted i was just using it as an example. Plenty of other perks and ad ons will absolutely shred tokens faster than you get em. Id be alot more fine with the Distortion change if their were more perks that hid your auta but their arent. Meanwhile we have stealth killers and a massive amount of perks that make you undetectable to counter survivor aura perks that take no effort at all to get value from.

    While yes distortion helped some survivors hide - the ones that wanted to use it that way - those survivors are now just spending the entire match getting into a locker at the edge of a terror radius so slowly going between lockers.

    Exactly lolol if survivors want to hide they will and dont need Distortion to do it. Meanwhile the majority of people who use Distortion as a strategic perk instead of selfishly are getting punished. Pretty typical in dbd nerfs.

  • @KerJuice said:

    I agree. I always felt Distortion needed a buff, not a nerf. You can burn through stacks easily when going against aura reading add-ons and perks

    i never thought it needed a buff but i did think much like Adrenaline even though that got nerfed too that they were perfect perks. DBD has so many useless perks i dont see the purpose in nerfing perfectly fine ones. I haven't seen Distortion in a single game since the nerf, just killed a great perk.

  • @SoGo said:

    I think that 15 seconds per stack is perfect, if not maybe a bit too little. The perk is fine.

    It's definitely an improvement the whole rework just feels a bit unnecessary for the small handful of players who use it to do nothing all game as opposed to the productive survivors who used it. Since the rework i haven't seen a single person use it.

    There are defo some killer aura perks I think need nerfed too tbh, I just got tired of teammates who would hide with distortion all game & i think new Distortion is still viable. If Distortion is at 1 charge per 15 seconds chase time, that still costs multiple killer perks to partially counteract one survivor perk.

    im sure itll still be viable just less useful overall and easily replaced by another perk granted that perk wont do the same thing. The way i look at it is id be fine with it if we had more perks had the ability to hide your aura. I have no problem with killer aura perks like at all i love them actually as someone who also plays alot of killer but on the other end we barely have any perks that counter them. Killers can use a slew of basekit abilities or perks and ad ons to become undetectable,survivors have none of that

  • @Autharia said:

    Some used it as an Info perk to know what aura reading killer had if they weren't pig or Myers.

    and that was a great use of it, itll still do that just far less often now.

  • @ratcoffee said:

    All ears only activates once every 30 seconds, enough to recharge both stacks, and that assumes absolute worst case scenario for survivors

    tbh if you're dropping pallets fast enough to chew through distortion stacks at 15 second recharge, good, getting aura read will make you go down and stop wasting pallets so someone who knows how to use map resources properly can take chase

    those perks were just examples and im not referring to myself anyways lol im simply stating how 2 of many perks let alone all the killers who have aura reading ad ons can chew through Distortion stacks.

    I'm trying to post a link, but for whatever reason it doesn't seem to be embedding properly. let's try again.

    Submit a request – Dead by Daylight

    there you go. no idea why it borked earlier.

    thank you i submitted it, hopefully something comes of it

  • @GentlemanFridge said:

    If nothing shows up for a long time, I'd recommend submitting a support ticket. You may have been one of the players who fell through the cracks early on.

    where should i submit the ticket? I submitted a request to BHVR hours ago but it might not have been a ticket.
