Reassurance?

[WingPonyMedic | TTV]

Apparently 2 people with reassurance can hold a survivor on hook forever. True or false?

True

BHVR once again, caves to the cries of the privileged.

I was wondering how that worked. I tried Reassurance once and was disappointed to see that (in my attempt at least) the button to activate it didn't appear until I had direct line of sight with the survivor. I couldn't activate it from the floor above them or anything. So I don't know how all that is going to work out.

Its gonna result killers running an efficient slugging, no-hook build. cause survivors like that right? bleeding out on the floor for 4 minutes? time to get started

That cant be serious. Infinite hook stage? Really?

yep. for free and forever. no prerequisite, cooldown is barley longer than the struggle freeze itself.
BHVR improved the health of the game by removing DHFD, and went. "hey, survivors are crying a lot over losing invincibility, lets implement invincibility and make it even better"

Yes, because BHVR doesnt balance ANYTHING from PTB to live. only bugfix. they have never, not once, balanced anything from PTB to live, and they will not start now.

reassurance will be in the game, broken, for 3 months till midchapter unless its killswitched

But killer still need to camp for that to be the case right?

that is not true, they have balanced the dredge glowing pale white in darkness mode for example. I personally will just wait what we will see. If they really get infinite hooks, i have no hesitation drop this game until they killswitch it.

So... don't camp?

And survivors still need to get within 6-8 meters with clear line of sight to activate it.

ah see, this is why troll threads should be bannable more frequently on this forum. Me having 0 info about upcoming survivor perks, reading this and my alert sirenes go on.

Encouraging altruisim is only a good thing for killers. And if they pack up and make you follow one so they can unhook another, well it just makes the games even faster and more alive because then you can keep hunting that one or go back.

both incorrect. Best case scenario, 2 survivors can keep a survivor on hook till they win the game,

Worst case scenario, a team of survivors can hold 1 survivor hostage on hook forever, now imagine theyre teaming with the killer, you are forced to DC

There is no positive to this. Only rework that would be half acceptable is making it 1 use only , then its disabled. just like DS, UB, camaraderie, slippery meat, adrenaline, deliverance, all perks that impact a killers pressure in a powerful way, are 1 time uses, and making someones hook pause, such as camaraderie, is 1 time use. and theres no reason to outdate that perk for one thats objectively better

on gideon you can do that from the floor beneath. Was funny seeing wesker looking for someone around the hook with kindred.

the pale white wasnt a rebalance, it was a bug. just like stacking endurance. it was never going to be a feature
