Is There A Pallet Issue?

I had two games today where I noticed something really odd.

First game was a Nemesis, I was already dead and just watching my friend run the killer. They dropped a pallet and it just SHATTED on Nemesis--but he didn't get stunned, He just ran through it like nothing happened.

I know theres a perk taht will immediately break a dropped pallet, but you still have to get the stun. Even with the perk to shorten the stun, theres STILL a stun. But with this I literally watched him just eat the pallet and keep running--he didn't auto it either, so its not like he timed it flawlessly. He literally just got hit and didn't even miss a step animation.


Second game was against a spirit, and I had crawled to a pallet and saw my friend was nearby. We've done this 100s of times before. Spirit picks me up, my friend drops the pallet, the pallet falls and hits the Spirit dead on the head--and he KNOWS he hit because he literally got BP for it--yet the killer isn't stunned, and still has me in their grasp.

Now I didn't looka t what the Nemesis perks were, but I saved Spirits.

Sh e had Haunted Ground, BBQ, Nurses, and Jolt. So literally nothing that would let her eat a pallet like that,

    If the Spirit hadn't fully completed the pick up animation then you wouldn't get broken free from her grasp even though your friend would still be rewarded with the stun BP. It's possible this is what happened.

    As far as the first one, I'm not sure. Do any of Nemesis' add ons affect stuns? Or it's possible it's just a glitch. How was the rest of the match?

    A while ago there was a bug with Spirit Fury+Enduring that allowed you to just walk through the pallet basically.


    I saw it a lot when I played Demo. Charge up a Shred, go to pallet, pallet breaks on head, no stun.

    I think there's a server issue going on in general. I was trying to do a "blind killer x time" rift thing tonight and it didn't feel right. (Like you know when it should have worked but it just doesn't.)

    I'm pretty sure it's still in the game. It's fun catching Survivors off-guard with it
