Killers can swing through pallets now with little to no consequence since the patch and fengs lithe will not activate at times when vaulting as well Ive died several matches in a row now due to these two major problems i drop a pallet and get the stun but still get hit in the process and fengs lithe is useless now by the time u get through the vault animation u get hit through the vault or lithe does not activate rendering it a useless perk this game already heavily favors killers i know because im a killer main but ive been playing a lot of survivor since patch and wow the few things that made it a decent run for survivor are now obsolete pallets play a major part in either living or dying to a killer u can't even kite the killer effectively any more since pallets are pretty useless unless u throw them well ahead of the killer in pursuit and then all he has to do is walk around also been getting hit while vaulting pallets instead of the killer getting the hit on the pallet and i don't understand the nerf of balance landing survivors have little to no offense beyond flashlights and pallets and for perks to be nerfed and vaults times extended just makes no sense to me i can't say much about balanced landing because i don't run the perk but i know as a killer pre patch i never had a problem catching survivors who ran it just some thoughts let me know if u have had the same problems maybe we can get some real balancing done for console (ps4)

    Idk what you are talking about with the pallets but lithe yeah it happens to me too. The chase stops for half a second and you vault and don't get lithe because you weren't in a chase. It happens

    What do you mean that they can swing through pallets?

    The patch changed the pallet stun time EXACTLY for the reason that you drop the pallet earlier such that you dont get hit through the pallet, what the hell is the problem now?

    Cant talk about lithe because I dont use it, but yesterday there were 3 or 4 survivors that managed to use lithe as usual^^

    Oh, and greetings to the fellow killer main that agrees that the game heavily favours killer :wink:

    The pallet still has to hit the killer to stun so if you are in a cat in mouse with killer and drop the pallet early u only manage to hinder the killers path for a brief moment if u drop it to get the stun u get hit while dropping but that is not really my main concern the extended vault animation and lithe not triggering is my main focus i just prestige my feng and as of now only have lithe and technician perks to work with and its not that lithe fails all the time its just every now and then it wont trigger but the pallet thing i use to hate chasing a survivor around a pallet or being afraid to swing through for fear of stun and no hit now u still get the stun but u also get the hit on that survivor so it doesn't make for a bad trade for killer how ever it makes for a ######### exchange for survivor and the hitting people that vault pallets use to be a nightmare because of the fact of getting a pallet hit box instead of hitting the survivor now u get the hit wich is meh for me as the killer i don't mind breaking pallets and being kited and ######### it makes the chase so much sweeter when u catch the little bastard but its a non issue now i have played probably about 25 games since patch and i will tell u this they no longer fear the pallet and most don't even break them now lol ######### i know when i play killer pallets and vaults were the bane of my existence now killers vault right behind u which use to be a no no but since the vault animation has changed its a viable option to catch survivors now and pallets aren't really as threatening as they use to be. Any whos your fav killer i haven't played the spirit just yet but i will today i think i have the most fun as the shape or the clown but i like them all

    the killer getting stunned is actually advantageous in most situations because it means that pallet is getting broken, doubly so with enduring
