Devs with bright ideas.

So the new mid chapter patch buffs saboteur to make sabotaged hooks stay sabotaged longer. Okay cool. But whos bright ass idea was it to add this update for when killers have to get hooks for the reward in the Hallowed Blight? You can say "people wont really use it, its not that big of a change." But you cant deny that there are people who find sexual pleasure from making the killer job stressful for some reason and will only go after the special event hooks.

So i ask why? Just why.

    Even IF you had it, it wouldn´t make a difference. The next event will be worse than Haunted Grounds.
    The minimum distance of hooks has been increased to 24 meters. Now add, that there are only 2-7 hooks (depending on the offerings). Means, that most of the time, the killer will reach the hook just barely.
    Survivors will run towards the zones, where no event hooks are. Body block, DS, sabotage, etc.
    I guarantee you, that the forum will be full of killers which give up on the event.

    I agree on everything you said.

    Btw, the upcoming event will be even worse for killers than Haunted Grounds. 
    Sabotage gets a buff during a event where killers have to hook survivors on special hooks.
    What could possibly go wrong?!

    You could oh i don't know run Hang mans Trick for the luls when people try and sabo your event hooks as well as nail them for doing so. I ran it on my Trapper as normal but also my Huntress for the daily she had and nailed jerks.

    That´s the "just break the pallet" answer to looping.

    Event hooks will be a minority. Means, that the hook won´t be usually the closest hook you´ll see. Now the minimum distance between hooks is 24 meters. So the killer will just barely reach the event hook, only to get body blocked and/or the hook sabotaged. If he drops the survivor, because he has hangmans, then the survivor will break free. Even IF the survivor doesn´t break free, he won´t just stay where you drop him until the hook respawns.

    Mark my words. Killers will have a terrible event.

    This is going to sound harsh because it is but it's also logic and facts hopefully putting a stop to all this victim nonese.

    In other words no one's going to put up offerings so the poor killers will only get 2 hooks, is that what you're saying? I mean good grief talk about drama and woe is me victimhood here, I mean it's not like there wasn't offerings galore the 1st week of the BBQ event. Most killers had their weapon within the 1st few days and after that were just farming bp.

    There was also quite a few wouldn't put any up and instead make sure survivors couldn't do only the special event gens. Just because they didn't want survivors who'd put up offerings to help get them theirs couldn't get some for themselves.

    if killers have a bad event mark my words, it's their own fault for not putting offerings out there plain and simple. Since if they don't want to put offerings out there then they don't deserve to get their special hooks plain and simple.

    When I did the BBQ event I made sure to put up offerings every match on both sides even if I already had what i needed. I still did it to help others get their tokens since I knew not everyone would've gotten it and in fact I've still got offerings in my inventory on both sides.

    If you or any other killer doesn't get it then you've got no one to blame but yourselves so stop trying to play the victim here.

    Btw, the BBQ event was a piece of cake. 
    Haunted Grounds was the event that traumatized many killers. 

    The upcoming event will be on the same level.

    You can get banned for that now

    As long as they don't use DCs to de-pip I can't fathom them getting punished.

    You guys really saw so many people saboing event hooks last time? I mean, I played a lot during the BBQ event, and I faced no more than 2-3 people of the kind. I don't think it's that much of a deal. Mabye others have different experience. Frankly, gathering all the Frosty Margaritas for the survivor reward was much more of a pain in the arse than getting a load of BP and the killer reward.

    lol OH GOD
    cant wait to watch Angry pug play at least one day during this event and watch him question himself as to why people who play killer hate him as he's proceeding to sabotage an event hook like the ######### he is.

    (No joke he did this last year and was asking why people were mad at him )

    In short, we're back to the late 2016/early 2017 cancerous meta.

    Or a similar one.

    Seems like i need to prolong my break on this game lul.

    About the event, i haven't played during Howling ground nor Scorched summer tho, for what i care.

    Even nice skin don't worth the cancerous game experience during those events.

    Depending on how cancerous it is, I'll probably take a break as well.

    Did they confirm what the event was going to be?

    People started posting event details like a month ago and there doesn't seem to be any source.
