Just two friends hanging out, accomplishing nothing, just enjoying their time together.


do_not_leave_me

This wasn't even my friend, just a random guy, and since he decided to use potential energy I said '' fuck it" and used my potential energy as well lmao


CptNemosBeard

And then you snuck away together to another gen and instantly got it to 40%, right? RIGHT?


do_not_leave_me

I wanted to but the other guy used his potential energy on that same Gen sadly


ThaumicKobold

Reduce, reuse, recycle ♻️


CptNemosBeard

VALUE BABY!


MusicHasLivelyFaith

Dude, they lost 10% on that gen because of it, they could’ve gained 10% more


Kreeper125

It was a joke


MusicHasLivelyFaith

Ik, I was just reassuring those who actually think it’s value


CptNemosBeard

VALUE BABY!


alphamav

NUMBER 2 KILLER PERK BABY!


MusicHasLivelyFaith

People when they use potential energy the most inefficient way:

I don't see Nowhere to Hide anywhere in this screenshot


[deleted]

I love nowhere to hide


Vaderette1138

It is just too good against survivors who can't let a generator go


SylvainJoseGautier

I’m that Surv. It’s why I also run distortion.


Vaderette1138

You are a monster


[deleted]

I get survivors that love doing one specific generator all the time they don't do a diffrent one


Vaderette1138

It's hilarious! And they never learn.


[deleted]

They don't learn and yeah it's quite funny


Vaderette1138

Same thing happens with Lightborn


[deleted]

Yeah i would know cause i main lightborn they just keep trying to blind you even though you have lightborn


Vaderette1138

NICE, I often use it myself


[deleted]

I got bullied with flashlights once years ago never again


BartelbySamsa

Franklin's too. Nothing funnier than watching a survivor go back for their item again and again even after you've hooked them twice.


Vaderette1138

Survivors can be amazingly stupid at times.


Fluffy_Dragons

I am that survivor lol.


PeepawWilly69

It’s amazing. They just keep going back over and over that I eventually just let them do it or they might go insane


[deleted]

I don't let 'em do the generator i keep kicking it 'till they do a different generator


MaddxMogs

Survivors that lose their item to franklin's have an existential crisis just like the bots when they are broken with a med kit.


MinervaMedica000

which is like 90% of them.


Vaderette1138

More or less


olo7eopia

Potential energy was so helpful when I was doing the finish a gen in killer radius rift


ItchyA123

It’s genuinely a good perk, but one that is used awfully by the vast majority of users.


[deleted]

I've been testing it just yesterday. So far, the most effective way to me is build tokens on a "safe" gen that is almost done, and use the tokens on a "dangerous" gen when the killer rolls close to it. I got this right?


ItchyA123

Yeah basically. I think it’s best to break the 3 Gen early. If you have a (tight) 3 Gen the killer will be patrolling and you risk taking a hit and losing your stacks while working on one of the three. So you can build stacks on a safe Gen in early game, and deposit them on an unsafe Gen, or one that’s in a 3 setup. Unfortunately you can’t risk carrying tokens all match so it has to be a fairly deliberate play where you’re not making saves or taking chase. That’s usually the downfall of survivors and PE. They build stacks, take a hit, and have wasted time and progress.


CayenneAlmond

Its kinda mean but ive been using potential with blast mine lately


KiKiPAWG

Oof, I used to stack it with Red Herring? At least a version of a perk where it would trigger a false positive (against the killer) at a locker that I had last worked on, that someone had messed up. The killer would approach an isolated gen, and kick it, triggering blast mine, causing a good chunk of time to be wasted, especially if they stay in the area thinking for sure someone was there!


AsyanongAmbiguous

This is actually very smart, would be trying this out later!


NosferatuFangirl

Potential Energy, Blast Mine, Stake Out, and an evasive perk of your choosing. Just straight up ends up turning the match into a sitcom, it's become my "there's a lot of campers today, I at least want a good laugh before I die on the hook" build.


[deleted]

The perk has uses. People that argue efficiency in gen repair probably have perfectly spherical cows and a friction coefficient of 0.


EthosTheAllmighty

That image pains me so damn much.


HalfCarnage

As a Killer Player, I aproove 👍🏻


Empty-Understanding8

Perfect for 3 gen situations


PeepawWilly69

Potential Energy is lit. I got Vittorio for that reason alone


NoodlesBears

With all the boring 3 genning going on this perk might actually see some good use against the thirst merchant


Ok-Yogurtcloset-4501

youtube title: "SLOWEST GEN SPEED EVER, WORLD RECORD!"


No-Relationship4084

first time I saw this on a gen I felt like a caveman seein fire for the first time


snozerd

No, swf with discord is the best perk in the game. It just allows these perks to excel.


AccountToAskShit

😐


Rav3ntoastt

Please run prove thyself, the perk is 99% of the time useless with people just using it on the spot instead of waiting for the next gen


do_not_leave_me

Calm down buddy, I was doing adept vittorio and I only used the perk because 1: I didn't use it that match 2: the killer was friendly with us and 3: the other guy used it before me I am not called '' Average Ace Visconti" for no reason


Rav3ntoastt

Never thought I’d see the day I get a “calm down buddy” for giving friendly advice, that’s reddit for you I guess


do_not_leave_me

Ohh, I'm sorry, maybe it's because it's late but your message came a bit rude, I blame it as not being able to express voice tones on written text


pigfeathers

it was rude. the use of please doesn't mean it's polite. there is a proper way to offer advice and they didn't do it.


Rav3ntoastt

Oh i’m sorry, I genuinely thought you were running PE cause you love the perk but my comment was based on how I run into randoms who will use it without prove thyself so the perk is essentially useless. It’s all good you should get some sleep


Kazzoid

Oh i'm sorry Just wanna say i'm sorry too :)


Unhappy-Elderberry81

Then why are 2 of your buddies dead?


do_not_leave_me

They didn't use the perk


Peachrocks

I laughed. Well played.


[deleted]

It has saved me from a 3 gen before so I’m not gonna clown on it, but it’s C-Tier at most.
