    9 days later still seems to happen some survivors aim to the floor or at most killers legs and gets blind is it a bug or the torch can blind the killer pointing down?

    Or is it a trick by aiming down you look at the beam and it blinds the killer

    definitely something happening, I have noticed them aiming at floor too what are they doing? exploiting something probably

    It's because the killer blind zone is in the upper chest lower neck area, so from far away a survivor can actually be a little low but if the top of the beam radius is even touching that area the blind will start , and add ONS like the yellow lens widen the beam radius so you can be further off point but still hit a blind with that add on because it covers a wider radius than normal

    It's a visual bug. I've had matches as a duo where a random has been aimed at the floor and got the blind but from my friends pov they aimed normally at the killers eyes.
