I wish I can tell the difference between Haunted Grounds and a normal Hex.

So I am having loads of trouble distinguishing between Haunted Grounds and a regular Hex perk. Here is a solution. How about when you run Haunted Grounds with a normal Hex perk say like Ruin, Devour Hope and such, why not color the auras of Haunted Grounds a different shade of red or another color perhaps so that you can know which is Haunted Grounds and which is your regular Hex perk?

I like running Haunted to protect my Hex totems, but sometimes its hard to tell which hex you are supposed to protect and guard from time to time. Can this be a possible change?

    I read this and thought you were talking from a survivors perspective hehe

    The ability to distinguish between your hexes is something killers have wanted forever, basically. It won’t be happening soon

    It would be a good idea to know which hex is which but say if you could tell the difference survivors would be able to tell aswell fpjust from the way you trap your hexs so in a way you'd be basically telling them whic hex you have. Nice idea though I just think it would ruin hexs

    I agree it would be nice, but there is actually some game play elements at play here that may stop working if this change were implemented (and like @wisdom pointed out, @TheSavageLycan is saying Killers should be able to see the difference, for survivors they would still all look the same).
    Basically characters like Trapper and Hag would know which totem to trap and protect, meaning they are unlikely to bother with the other totems, and in turn act as a dead give away to a more skilled survivor that this is the totem they want to destroy, and once they've got that one they'll just leave the other ones alone

    Not to say this doesn't lend to some new dynamic play where you over trap one of you Haunted grounds totems to trick the survivors into thinking it's ruin/devour hope/huntress lullaby...

    Yeah I had meant to edit that for Killer Perspective because sometimes you protect the wrong totem and the Ruin or Devour Hope gets taken out instead of Haunted Grounds. So I'd love to have it to where Haunted Grounds at least appears differently from other Hex totems.
