Flashlight Saves and Lightborn useful now.

With the faster pick up not only are flashlight saves harder, Lightborn also makes it 100% impossible with a single flashlight. Note that 2 shining at the same time will save. What do you think about this? I love it. Lightborn is now a amazing counter for people who get bully survivors.

    Killers should have 0 reason to complain about flashlights now that Lightborn completely nullifies them. I tested with a friend, even a purple flashlight with pink bulb doesn't blind fast enough during pallet breaks or pickups. You really do need 2 flashlights to get it. I love putting it on and just eating up all that light and smacking them in their stupid faces.

    I am of the opinion that a single perk out of four that we get should even hard counter the use of two flashlights. They are items and not perks after all. A perk should cancel out all items when it comes to flashlights. Not only are the lights used to bully killers but they are in effect multiple use DS's without even using a perk to do it.

    Flashlight saves aren't impossible if the Killer has Lightborn, a Twitch clip prove that to me.
    If you're a Survivor and do the usual timing, but then don't save them, you know they have Lightborn, so now all you gotta do is shine it earlier than usual.

    If you try saving a survivor and the killer has lightborn 3 it will NOT save them to save them if they have lightborn you would have to start blinding before the killer even picks them up. Lightborn 3 guarantees that you won't drop the survivor.
