  1. I had an idea for a perk that would allow you to kick off a vault instead of jump over it. That would allow you to psych out the killer, and maybe even give an old dead hard dodge without the Iframes. That way it can potentially help doge killers like Nemesis, Pyramid Head, and Death Slinger.

  2. Yeah, this would make for a cool perk. Think it would have to be an Exhaustion perk, otherwise pairing it with other perks could be potentially way too strong. Like, imagine pairing it with Lithe and Dance With Me. You could be completely gone before the Killer is even aware you went the other direction.

    Instead of making it a "push button after vault" action, they could use the new Activate Ability Button 2 they added with 6.2. Instead of pushing the normal vault button you'd push the AB2 button next to a vault to use it.

  3. I could see it. Have it have an similar activation trigger to Deception, put it on an 40-60 second cooldown, or make it an Exhaustion (15-20 second Exhaustion since it's not powerful). It would be fun to have more mind game potential for Survivor.

  4. Deception for windows is kinda what youre proposing.

    This is a bit stronger than that because you can react and change your camera direction mid animation to decide which side you want to be on

  5. I had this idea for a while now where the perk lets you get the endurance status effect for the duration of the vault (basically dead hard for vaults). Typical exhaustion perk but it also comes with a passive ability that lets you have more a bit more control during the vault so you could turn a corner after vaulting even before the animation ends. The time window where you're actually already at the other side but still in the animation is extremely small so that would be kinda fun I think.

  6. I feel like with the fact there is this bug currently i wouldnt be surprised in time that this does happen it actually like a cool idea to even have in the game as an exhaustion perk although i am curious if they would give it iframes to compensate for it or not

  7. That would be a nightmare for killers. A lot of mind games and optimal plays rely on the vault sound. Survivors already have slow vaulting if they want to mind game around sound.
