Well I think the thing about stake out is that it's an answer in search of a problem. Generator speeds are very much temperamental. When the game is going well in your favor, generator speeds can seem very gratuitous. When the game isn't going well in your favor, generator speeds slow down to a snail's pace. That's why I prefer perks like fast track. They take the situations that you aren't doing so well and help you make up for them (I really think it should give you tokens when you are hooked, and probably give 5 tokens when a survivor is sacrificed or murdered). Stake out requires you to go out of your way to get stacks, and even then it's such a minute boost that it isn't worth it.
If I could have my say, I would have it so that while in the killer's terror radius, you gain an increase to objective speeds and a much bigger increase to altruistic/unhooking actions. That would help survivors with 3-gen situations, or any other situation where the killer is concentrating a lot of pressure in one area (like slugging situations or getting off clutch heals). It would mitigate high-risk situations by giving you an even higher reward. Even then, it would be situational and probably not meta.

That could be abusable by gen-rushing SWF's. BHVR should just make it so that you get a passive 2% increase in progress for all great skill checks and missing a skill check uses a token to make it a good skill check. That way it's not only used for generator progress and it acts as a safety net for players who activate skill checks too early.

Killer sounds too complex and too overtuned. He has so many abilities and certain perks would be broken on him like enduring, spirit fury, brutal strength, pain resonance, and many others. I like the idea of a power where it's entirely based on slugging but the more and more your teammates feed him the more you're punished and eventually there becomes no counterplay to him. It sounds like my idea to rework Myers. I think Myers should be able to stalk while in T3 to make it last longer but there's an extent to how long it can last and the cooldown last longer the more power he has

These are interesting but I think the smartest one is the monstrous shrine change to scourge hooks, that's actually a really good idea in my opinion.

Monstrous shrine should give you oblivious, blindness, and incapacitated when you enter the basement. That way you can't enter lockers, can't hear the killer coming, and you won't see any auras. This will just force survivors out of the basement regardless. You wouldn't even need to walk over as killer. Personally, I feel that the game doesn't need to show the aura of whoever is in basement as a 4man of fengs are not only going to be indistinguishable but it also forces killers to use their brain and survivor positioning making the killer reason what survivor it is. Not to mention this means the survivors can bait monstrous shrine procs, it's similar to spam vaulting pallets but it's a little more believable.

The predator change just builds in stridor basically and it's very niche, only people with average headsets will see value and in my opinion, the sounds are already loud enough. You just need to learn to track a little better if you struggle with that. Red stain reduction would be broken on insta down killers like Bubba and you can already moonwalk so it wouldn't be used very often. An interesting change for predator would be to slow survivor's walking speed down in chase by 25% to keep them running. The scratch mark effect could stay.

Beast of Prey is so dog ######### and so is my fix because it needs a complete rework. Bloodlust=1 Survivor's vault pallets 15% slower, Bloodlust 2=Survivor's drop pallets 15% slower, Bloodlust 3=Killer breaks a pallet 35% faster, in this case, you lose bloodlust and have to restart. This kinda guarantees you'll get a hit on a survivor, and if you don't you can still break pallets quickly to get some value out of the chase you just played. It also means that survivors will struggle to connect loops as their pallet vault speed is lowered, they will struggle to stun you with slower pallet drops, and if you still didn't get a hit on that survivor then you can just break the pallet. The debuff is that bloodlust is removed after chasing a survivor for 1m15s. That means you have 30 seconds after reaching bloodlust 3 to kill this debuffed survivor.

I'm not sitting here saying he's OP, or even strong. I'm merely saying that once he starts spamming M2, there's nothing the survivor can do but guess.

It's an opinion, yes; but a majority opinion.

Forgot to mention that this isn't as important of an issue as other killers which is why I'm downplaying this. Don't plya him if you don't like him and if you go against him just destroy him because he's weak. Him being unfun in chases is an opinion and if you really hate it then stealth that whole match and just wait it out because nobody plays him anyways.
