Lethal Pursuer is not a good perk

[Clint NoNerdyW✪✪D]

I know it's a baby killer perk but i'm not sure why i'm seeing it often and especially on random killers who make even less use out of it. It seems newer players are just seeing a random youtuber or twitch streamer use it and just sticking it on their killers.. Or they bought it on the welfare shrine ect.
It's funny that some killers are so desperate to find someone quickly that they're willing to waste a perk slot just to avoid any chance of having to search even the tiniest bit, when you can simply use even the nerfed version of corrupt intervention and have a zone given to you to search and be guaranteed to find a survivor(s) in that general area while also having some gens blocked until you get the first down. It's a very weird baby killer fascination with this perk for some reason and it's not as if they can afford to take 3 perks into a match when they already struggle to get survivors... Also it's heavily countered by distortion and a team can take 3x distortion and have a good runner be seen on purpose by lethal pursuer to make sure the killer chases them (Which they of course will, i see a survivor so it must be a good perk..) I don't think iv'e ever used it since nemesis release since once for adept and maybe another time to find someone i didn't like from the lobby quickly.
It's also not going to make a baby killer better and they'd be better off to learn the map spawns and take a useful perk instead that helps in chases or protects gens, hell even noed would be better. You could take it on Nurse since even two perks will suffice if you're a good nurse, so it doesn't matter. Very very medicore perk and there's far better options, i'm not sure who's telling baby killers that it's a good perk, maybe survivor mains.

is not any perk bad, which only works at the start or end of the game and just one single time, instead the whole game?

No.

The main benefit from Lethal Pursuer is not the initial vision, but the 2 second increase to ALL timed aura reading from any source, it makes OTHER perks better, that's the reason it's used so often.

So you're wasting 2-3 perk slots on just aura reading which can be completely countered by distortion. Even baby killers were using pursuer when it didn't have 2+ seconds to aura reading which proves to me they were just desperate to find someone quickly.

Are you trying to say that when a perk is bad once, it shall remain bad forever regardless of buffs? Is that your argument for lethal persuer in it's current state being bad? And why are we even arguing about this? I like lethal persuer, floods of rage and make your choice on dredge. I can sometimes pull someone into a locker right at the start and I know what locker to go to to get to the exposed survivor. I know there's better builds, but I like this and have fun with it and I shall keep using it.

this is true only if you personally bump up into 3-4 Distortion users per match quite often.
Nowhere to Hide and Infectious Fright are literally core perks in my build, why would I remove Nowhere to Hide just because sometimes 1-2 survivors bring Distortion, or even worse, not use Infectious Fright because it's directly counterable by Calm Spirit?

Pair Lethal with Nowhere to hide/Gearhead/I'm All Ears or pair everything to be ulitmate aura reader, this works amazingly.

And gets countered by one perk when you've wasted three.

You crearly don't see the full potencial.. Its one of the best killer perks.

Distortion does run out of stacks eventually unless the killer you play has a massive tr on a big map. I play Huntress with three aura perks and they in fact do run out of distortion quicker than you would think

Nah good sound and map awareness is one of the best killer perk and it's free.

Yeah man, if you just hook survivors, you don't need any perks.

So it's like a wallhack for baby killers
