What a great tracking tool, even tough i played it on 1 tier, it gave me really precious information. With gens are worked on, how many survs work on that gen, oh someone healing in thus corner, someone is running to that gen/exit gate im honestly suprised how much information it gives. Really good job with this perj rework and i can't wait for the next ones! I wonder what you have planned for cuer limits.

It’s overpowered and should be changed to have a set range instead of map wide
I mean, it was actually pretty god tier for camping already. There are plenty of hooks that are almost basement-worthy in terms of how well you can defend them, and hangmans was the only thing that let you use them multiple times.
The new hangman gives killers the aura of any survivor within a 16m radius of any hook across the map. That’s overpowered
No.
I mean, it is a reverse BBQ, except not really because it still lets you see people far away too. Granted, we didn't know the exact values until PTB, but it felt to me like people were sleeping on the perk when the change was announced because people assumed it would only just catch someone trying to sabo a hook.
As much as it kills me to say this (ITS SO GOOD I LOVE IT), it should probably be toned down a bit. If it's meant to prevent or lessen the effects of hook sabos, then maybe is should only work if the killer is within a certain range of the hook in question.
EX: There's 9-10 hooks on the map, and the Killer is within 24m of 4 of them. The aura reading described in the perk should only apply to those 4 hooks. The radius could be changed with perk tiers, but this would be more inline with what the perk was originally meant for.
is it a bug? I could have sworn the description the devs gave said it was only 16meter range of the hook?
Don't sabotage then xD it only works when its sabotaging a hook, so why should it be nerfed if it's a direct counter to a 2.5 sabotage time?
It affects every hook- since the hook are spread out across the map, theres very few areas (aside from lockers) where you won't be detected.
Ah here now that's some BS if true! Hooks are every 5 feet!
Fruit ninja is bad enough when a survivor goes limp on them! Can you imagine how ridiculous it'd be with this?
I didn't say it should be nerfed. o.O Though it absolutely does not only work when a hook is being sabo'd. It detects every Survivor within 16 meters of any hook.
Please attempt to actually answer to why it shouldn't be changed, instead of one word answers which don't do anything except make you look dumb.
Can confirm it's good now lol and almost broken with the Putrid Oak offering lol
It's probably gonna get changed before it goes live
You have to be carrying survivors though, you can't capitalize on the info. If it reveals them anytime they get too closevto a hook that's one of the buff ideas I had for leatherface but wasn't sure how to phrase. Would be a good baseline pinhead power
I mean, compare it to BBQ. Right as you're gonna hook someone, keep track of where people are.
Its a nice perk but im still going to use BBQ as my info perk, that BP boost is too good.
You can head off after them right away with bbq though, when I'm carrying I can't focus on anything but hooking. That's why I kinda hate thrilling, is worn off by the time you can go anywhere but to a hook
I mean, try to focus more on where they are when using Hangman's Trick?
Oh? I'm sorry then! I assumed you wanted it nerfed, I honestly haven't seen anything about survivors being within sixteen meters of a hook though... I've only heard that it worked when someone starts sabotaging a hook, I swear I read that in the perk description.
You get a notification when a Survivor starts to sabotage a hook. But while carrying Survivor, you read the auras of anyone within 16 meters of any hook.
That's pretty cool, it'll make the perk interesting at last
I'd rather it be four meters, that would be much more fair
New Hangman's trick is very strong, but it encourages killers to not slug which is awesome.
This is how all killer perks should be, powerful. its 4 killer perks against 16 survivor perks and seeing as how survivor can use sprint burst multiple times during a match and sabo hooks in less than 5 seconds. Hangmans Trick is a perfect balance.
Then they wonder why killers run the same perks...
Streamer FunGoose said someone from BHVR was in his stream and stated that the PTB version would not go live.
I hope they won't nerf hangman. If they want to see vareity let there be a new strong perk you can actually use in diffrient builds.
4 meters would make the aura reading useless and the perk bad. Note that the level 1 Kindred had a reading of 8 meters, and you're suggesting that Hangman's Trick be half that.
I think it should be limited to 16m around every hook aroud the killer (like saboteur) instead of map wide, it's already really good like this and works more like a reverse BBQ
