    Shadowstep not really unless a bad map like RPD.

    I think shadowstep is ok, annoying but not as unhealthy.

    Shadow Step kills Nurse... she can blink to a survivor, but during her fatigue they literally disappear and she's got no way to track them. I've lost many a player like this... literally no clue where they go, especially when they're running Iron Will now too (which has no counter, so you can't use Stridor any more).

    This is a pretty serious problem when I play with Spirit.

    I played against a team that reblessed Shadow Step wherever they could to stop me from using my power.

    I could not keep up with the chase and gens, i felt terrible.

    I personally have come to really really hate boons. Do they affect me? Sometimes. Shadowstep really does ruin fun builds like wall hacks piggy, Scratched Mirror. Other than that I sometimes look track of survivors because of Shadowstep and CoH just completely ruins any pressure I have. But otherwise nah I can follow the blood and footsteps.

    Do they affect me? Not really unless I want to do something fun and less stressful but boons even ruin just chill builds, so.

    On any indoor map or any map with a strong main structure that has a totem spot it can be a problem. Most main structures are strong and have a totem spot.

    So it has the potential to be really strong in a lot of scenarios, it just depends on the survivors using it well. A totem on a random corner isn't gonna help much with SS.

    Also kinda depends on the killer build, if it has a lot of aura reading it can mess it up.


    On a map like shelter woods its trash though, but that's also the minority of maps.
