  1. Bruv it’s not the worst I’ve used it combined with bite the bullet to clutch play more than once sure the heal is long enough for me to contemplate my life choices cry internally seethe and mauld a bit just do your best not to think to hard on your life during a heal or you’ll wind up like me healing in a weskers face as he watches me heal for my sheer audacity

  2. As a recent Killer main, I am glad I never had to deal with old Self Care. However, even I think it was overnerfed. Change the heal speed for Self Care to at least 50% at Tier 3. That way you can heal at full speed with Botany Knowledge. It could even be a little higher, but I would say 50% would be fine. The real issue was more so with old We'll Make it, not really Self Care itself. Plus now that healing takes 16 seconds, and there are now many perks that can slow down healing, I think Self Care would definitely be deserving of a buff.

  3. i just played a match yesterday against a killer with sloppy and penti. despite having hayperfocus and stake out the heal must've taken at least a minute. in conclusion, i think they nerf medkits again.

  4. I don't know why they don't rework Self Care to 66% efficiency and not working with any healing boost or medkits. This way you get infinite self healing medkit, but it takes 24s to heal. I think this would make it balanced and would compete with other popular perks, but as it is right now, in order to get somewhat close to this effect you need to waste 2 perk slots. I'd rather bring a medkit with extra charges/syringe than wasting 2 perk slots, because on average I only need to self heal 2 times in a match.

  5. Self care is supposed to be used when other survivors aren't near to heal you, right ?
    What if the perk had something like this :

    Self-care starts with 0 tokens, for a maximum up to 3. For every other survivor that dies by any means, self-care receives a token. Each token grants additionnal 10% self healing speed, for a maximum up to 30% additionnal healing speed.

    I don't know if it would be balanced or anything but that's just an idea
