Flashlights should not work if you cannot see the light
![[Deleted User]](https://forums.bhvr.com/applications/dashboard/design/images/defaulticon.png)
It doesn't seem fair that flashlights work even way outside of the killer's FOV. Flashlights should only work when the flashlight is within the FOV of the killer.
Here is otz getting hit by one for example:
Even if you make the timing easier or something I have no problem with them if I can see them, but being flashlighted from outside where you can actually see doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

At the very least, they should change the time it takes to blind a killer based on your angle. Straight from the left? Takes too long, not worth it without body blocks. Straight-on? Keep as currently is.

Agreed. That is way too quick for a blind from the side. Should have to position yourself correctly to get a flashlight save.

It doesn't help they did something to flashlights and now it's even easier to get them off. I've even had blinds hit me through some solid objects in the game now; like some breakable walls, lockers, etc.

Had to re-up the clip apparently it got corrupted or something.

Flashlights are so hard to use now as a survivor, don't need to make it harder.

It's easier now, not harder. Also; that isn't an excuse for something like this which.
Also a buff to go with it was just mentioned above as well. It doesn't get much more generous than that.
Flashlights shouldn't blind a killer if a killer literally cannot see the flashlight; that makes no sense.

This is literally the only way I ever get blinded during a pick up nowadays. It's so cheap and unfair.
