the perk is pretty good but the problem is that killer can hit you and put you on deep wound if they tunnel. only small buff i would give to the perk is to make ignore a hit instead of tank a hit like Mettle of man. This means that even if you are in deep wound, you can still use DH.

Thats a much bigger buff then you think it is, since then you can pair it up with plenty of other items and effects to have long streaks of multiple perk triggers and effects, for the most egregious example you could us DH, DS, Off the record, and a styptic, you theoretically could, use OTR endurance buy time and not let them wait out endurance, go down after your 2 hits, use DS, get up and get more chase time, use DH the next time they would land a hit, no deep wound effect, and then use the medkit for icing on the cake and another hit to extend the chase even more.

And even at worst its still a huge buff since the little bit of extra time a killer might gain if DH forces them to give up a chase no longer gives the killer 12s of mending time on that survivor.

It doesn't need that buff not in the slightest especially since effectively can use it like that just running an anti-tunneling perk which already has perfect synergy with it. And it would just make the combos egregious, theres a reason deep wound applies to endurance perks we had a whole ptb of taking 5 hits to go down this effectively does the same thing.

in Dead Hard buff Comment by bjorksnas January 16, 2024

The fact that 1-2 on demand endurance hits a game doesn't sound like a strong enough perk just sounds wrong. It was and still is one of the strongest effects in the game to take a hit and not go down and the fact that perks like mettle of man have massive drawbacks just to have easy usage of this effect is telling that a perk that lets you take a risk ~2 times per match to get them with no investment other than just having the perk is crazy strong in the right hands. Saying it should have a dash like it used time (assumedly on top of endurance) or have even more uses after its active is way to much.

If you consider the 1v1 sure it might not feel massive to get an extra hit for another 15s of chase an average survivor might get but in the 4v1 that is a massive time gain from 1 use of 1 perk and thats on an average survivor now imagine a competent survivor or a team all using it 1 chase 3 hits and 3 gens gone hit and run doesn't matter since they all get 2 hits anyway while injured so no point in healing only mending, that or just use it safely to a pallet or window and extend the chase instead with no risk, nope its barely fine as is doesn't need any buffs.

Old CoH was released before the med-kit nerfs and self-healing nerfs. It’s already slower. We’re not talking about the nutty first initiation, we’re talking about the previous initiation which had considerable healing speed nerfs.
If you want it to be so finite so bad then the devs can call it a ‘healing event’ and limit it to 8 heals.

The final version before healing nerfs was a 50% bonus healing speed and self care totaling out to a 75% self heal speed, and a 21s heal which is nothing for something you could do infinitely gave to your teammates and could be used to heal someone else in 10.5s instead

Even if it was changed to have the self care penalty of being 35% heal speed with a 50% bonus so 32s self heal, it would be nutty because thats not loss in time efficiency and no item dedicated to healing for something your entire team could use

Even if on top of that it took 24s to heal instead of 16s (aka give it the medkit nerf) it would still only be a 48s heal which is still done spending 14s to give your entire team self care in a massive area for usually the entire match

It just shouldn't exist as a perk that give self healing in any form since its always just a powercreep on medkits and self care

I doubt it would ruin stealth since chases only start if a survivor is running in front of you within close range. Typically if you are sneaking up on people, it's not when they are running directly in front of you.

and just in case thats not enough it also pauses the timer when within 16m (to prevent moonwalking after survivors) in this theoretical

Almost all good, but I don't understand this:
Traps can be used after all gens are powered but always require 2 searches to remove
Traps are disabled when there is only 1 survivor remaining (so normal hatch and endgame after hatch is closed)
Traps are slowdown, not a real damaging power. I get it sucks losing part of your power in endgame, but slowdown is no longer necessary, and I can't see much good coming from able able to prevent survivors leaving after they've already completed gens. After all it is the survivors choice to complete a gen and activate a trap, not yours. This just seems to open the door for more of the old Pig trap abuse mechanics, as you wouldn't want your trapped survivors going off wasting tine anymore, you'd be more inclined to tunnel/harass them.
The second part just invalidates traps entirely. It means as long as all untrapped survivors leave through the exit gate first, the trapped survivor has nothing to worry about. This means even traps placed before endgame, so long as there's only one active when the last gen pop, it's effectively not active at all. This is a complete nerf to your fourth trap in most cases.

Good catch, ok change the 2nd one to if 3 survivors have been sacrificed or killed by any means then traps are disabled. Meaning if you get someone down in endgame give them a party hat and their team leaves them behind they are stuck there with you (still could get hatch)

I think one thing to note about Pig's crouch is it doesn't count as being in chase, and thus RBT count down. Survivors can run in front of a crouched Pig and never activate a chase. Currently she can't really chase Survivors crouched since...she's slower than survivors. If they ever make this NOT be the case, they would also need to ensure it counts as being in chase.
Current PTB Sadako works like this while demanifested, so I don't see this being a problem.

Good catch, you can now start chases with survivors while crouching, if that ruins stealth too much then make it only if they have a reverse bear trap that you can "chase" while crouching

Ideally, we'd adjust Killers on an individual basis. Killers like Nurse or Blight don't need anything to compensate for that loss, honestly nobody Huntress-level or above does.
I'm actually not sure how much it would affect things on a Kill Rate basis. You can still force hook trades, which nullifies it and regression is still extremely strong.

At the end of the day if people are playing to win you just need to be able to get a survivor out of the game when you need to. Thats why no real systems were implemented and very few changes have been made to tunneling. Sure tunneling "before" you need to leads to what feel like unfair matches but its a way to secure wins as much as any other strategy. At the end of the day if you want a balanced game without tunneling you would need massive killer buffs and changes to compensate because of the immense pressure a killer loses from not being able to tunnel.

The nerf will have no impact on this matter.

The whole point is to break the 3-gen strategy that killers like to use. If a killer is hovering back and forth between 2 gens, its because they're important and/or got progress put into them. If they're pushing me off of the gen w/o me hitting the 5%, the gen will just continue to regress till 0 and we'll be right back to the beginning. The problem wasn't the gen tapping, it was how close some gen spawns are to each other and how some killers basically negate the distance travel time.
I don't see this as a huge problem with coordinated SWFs b/c they can turn the 3-gen strat against the killers now but I do think solo que will suffer with this change the most.

4.5s is a decent amount when the killer has to go between 3 different generators to deal with 3-4 survivors either you would get it off your gen or they would get it off one of theirs, big picture its fine

The gen tapping change is probably the only thing I have a gripe with.
5% is a lot just for one person to stop it from regressing. Whats to stop the killer from pushing you off that gen before the 5% is repaired? The killer avoids having to kick it again/add to his regression count & the gen continues to regress.
Is there going to be an indicator of how much 5% is? Sort of like BNP's indicator on the progress bar? I would assume lots of people will get off the gen at 3-4% repaired, thinking they've hit the 5% mark.
I think w/ the gen-tapping change, you've just made 3 gen strategies stronger and solo que notably weaker & more painful (could have just kept it 2.5, there was absolutely no reason for the increase, or at least it hasn't been stated). Will see on PTB though.

Yeah, I'm aware, but they didn't. They'll be on the side of the hook trying to align themselves or something. Prioritizing hooks over breaking out is still not fair when you consider that the killer already has way too many advantages as it is. They get an inherent power, then their four perks, plus whatever extra buffs their add-ons give them. Then they can close the hatch, and even if they can't find the last survivor the Entity will kill the survivor for the killer, the hooks are super close and sometimes parallel to one another, and the exit gates are typically too close together (usually within view of one another). When you consider that killers can run speedster fast, teleport, burrow, block the gate, slow the gate opening down to a crawl, see auras, hear whispers, cause screams, track blood trails, see scratch marks, and if they do happen to hook the last survivor it's an automatic death. There's no struggle sequence. Just death.
I don't believe they should be prioritizing killers hooking over survivors breaking free.

counterpoint the killer still had to go through the process of downing the survivor so I think the game slightly favoring them with another 0.1~0.2s of extra wiggling due to ping and animation locks is fair

I agree, 1s shock detonation delay made sense when it was based on your ping as the host back in the day, now with being able to queue up a vault based on server side ping rather than the killers ping you get people going from what feels like miles away while shocked still being able to vault, the timing should be relaxed a bit. Lowering it to 0.8s and nerfing the addons to be 0.12s, 0.14s and 0.16s (still able to go down to the 0.5s currently with the paired addons) seems like a fair buff, range matters a bit less than the detonation delay because with better delay you don't need better range but just in case give him another meter he's earned it

As far as it being a free buff... if a bonus that comes into play 1 out of 50 matches (and that's being really generous) is a confounding distraction for the other 49, it's not a buff at all.

Funny enough, it's not.
Before the new system, whenever that happened, it was a non-issue because survivors would understand that the hooked person is being camped and respond by either forcing a trade or coordinating a rescue. Whereas now, they believe the hooked person will be able to escape on their own, mostly because, barring Kindred, a survivor who approaches the hook and sees the killer rush right in front has no way of knowing how far the killer was standing before they got there. By the time they realize the killer is playing around the mechanic, the hooked person hits the second phase, to finally be rescued and immediately tunneled out of the game. Genuinely worse than before.

Worse than before but the way you described it is that survivors are the ones making mistakes while killers have already adapted. The solution is survivors need to be smarter and adapt as well. Its still better than straight up face camping because its a free buff.

I have to disagree with you on that one. I get facecamped way more than I did before the "anti-facecamp" update.
Killers start by hard camping right outside the radius, even that happens more often than before. Then, as soon as another Survivor moves in they, the killer goes to the hook to deny the save. Or even better, they wait outside the hook radius until just long enough so that even if they do just face-camp the bar will never fill in time. I'd say it's impressive how many seem to know how exactly how far to stand or exactly how long to wait to make a complete joke of the system, but it's probably more that the system is just that easy to gimmick.

That sure sounds better than them standing 2 feet away under the hook for 60s

That's not really true.
Spirit and Hag are 110% for example.

Spirit was to balance out her previous effects of being very hard to track on top of powerful addons. What's worse than a killer moving 10m/s that you can see, one that you can't. Invisible window vaulting, passive phasing, no blinding at pallets, bad to no information, spirits 110 was to balance the real lack of any counterplay because of her not being visible most of the time on top of the fact she used to be much easier to use with bumping into survivors while phasing and stronger post phase speedboost (flat instead of decreasing over time).

Hag has the strongest traps in the game and a decent set of addons to boot, if she was 115 that really wouldn't make sense since she like nurse can be everywhere at once the only difference is they have to trigger a trap (or you have to have mint rag) and due to it being "invisible" most of the time because the traps are hard to see and with a good hag hard to predict you can see why she is 110. Default chase on top of that would be too much.

The visibility of a killer is a secondary to why their movement speed might be slower, but blight is real and you can see him so he gets the 115 pass

The thing is, Basekit BT, DH und OTR are basically negated by hitting the Survivor once. DS is not useful in its current state, you get around 7m of distance (1,7 seconds of mobility while the Killer is stunned). This is not much, unless you are really, really close to a Pallet.
Exhaustion Reset and Basekit Speedboost are really a stretch.

Ok but DH isn't as negated if you have DS since you could just use it after DS. And most of the time you could just unhook people when the killer is not on top of them and the speed boost + free endurance can take you across the map 44m and an extra health state is a lot when most killers only make 2m of distance on you during that time.

This 100% doesn't sound like an issue of a weak perk it just sounds like an issue or poor planning and low player skill if this is constantly happening. I mean you already said its good when used close to resources so why not take your speed boost to a good spot because you know if you don't then you would go down anyway (still wasting a ton of killer time in doing so because all the animation time is a minimum of 11s).
