New Monstrous Shrine could be problematic + question for the devs
The new update brought many good changes, but one I am uncertain about is the new Monstrous Shrine, which turns basement into Scourge Hooks and reduces hook timer if the killer is 24M away. I believe this is problematic for some killers such as the following:
For Nurse, 24M is nothing to her, especially with range addons. She can hook a survivor in basement, blink away immediately, harass other survivors and puts pressure on them to rescue with the hook timer penalty, then instantly blink back after the rescue, rinse and repeat. This could make Nurse, who some already consider unfun and overpowered, a nightmare to go against.
Hag can set up many traps to force survivors to slowly crouch towards basement, while having a reduced timer on the hooked survivor. The Hag probably needs a change to focus her power away from basement camping, like only having 1 trap allowed in basement.
Twins can harass the basement while Charlotte is away, although I don't know if Victor is considered a killer when controlled, so he might prevent the perk from activating. This one is only a maybe.
I feel like either the perk or the killers above need a change to prevent the scenarios above, or else Monstrous Shrine will make rescuing from basement a nightmare.
Also I have two questions about the perk.
If I bring Monstrous Shrine and another Scourge Hook perk, will I have 8 Scourge Hooks, or will the 4 Scourge Hooks all be in basement?
And if they are in basement, will hooking in basement activate perks like Pain Resonance and the other Scourge Hook perks.
