    The perk is garbage. Every time I've tried it nobody has ever gone in a locker. Seems it's really rare for them to do that.

    Might be a little better on Doctor? Just because he gives them a reason to go in a locker.

    It's only good on Doc and Huntress. Iron Maiden stacks with her add on and she can reload hatchets insanely fast.

    It's awful. The one time it happened to me I got away easily because 15 seconds is barely enough time for the killer to even come back. I don't even know how people can argue otherwise, this is how terrible perks remain terrible.

    I'm glad more people are seeing what I'm trying to say. Also that's actually a pretty funny combo, use MYC then they hide in a locker, only to Expose themself for 15 more seconds. It isn't useful but I think it would be funny in an Insta down build, MYC, Iron Maiden, Devour Hope, and either Rancor or NOED, probably NOED.

    Now this perk was created in order to counter the locker strategy to hide Auras, I get that and that's awesome, even more o that it came out with that new strategy. The problem is the Exposed status effect is not long enough to be useful, the Perk is mainly used to scare Survivors from using lockers so they'll stop hiding in there because they can be seen and are vulnerable but they are only vulnerable for a pathetic 15 seconds. Now if Survivors stop using lockers then yay job well done but then the Perk is useless because you're not using anymore, you could have used that slot for something more useful that will last more the whole game instead of several seconds. Once they stop hiding in lockers you don't need the perk anymore and even if they keep doing it then yolu only have 15 seconds to screw them over.Opening lockers faster is just to reduce the time wasted of frantically searching lockers and that is a strategy as well if someone is in a room with multiple lockers but that's rare and you can't force it.

    This perk needs a 60 Exposed timer to be on par with other Exposed perks, why is this perk 15 seconds? I am very curious as to why this is 15 seconds, why is this one only 15 compared to the others that have 60, what was so over powered about this perk that it needed to be crap to be useable and therefore not useable?

    If this was 60 seconds you can totally find that person and down them instead of maybe finding them and then chasing them oops the Exposed is gone you should have been faster. If this was 60 seconds then Basement plays ould be god-like, if someone goes to to save and you stop them and now they're on the hook instead and you leave but had no idea someone else was hiding in a locker then with 60 seconds you down both of them on the way back instead of tunneling the person who just got unhooked or wasting time on the person who saved them. This perk is not good enough to waste a slot on, I love Gimmicky perks but this is useless and I would never use it even though I really want to because of how weird it is. So please buff this or explain to the community on the decision for it to be 15 seconds and it had better be a damn good reason because the perk is useless and a waste of time for reasons I just covered. @not_Queen is there anything that can be said about this?

    the reason that they didint put 60 seconds its that you have hex: haunted ground combine with that will be insane its not a hex totem you know also remember that huntress with this perk its insane and ppl will play alot with her if you put that way so it wont happend 15 seconds its good also remember that hillbilly its a good killer and with a hit with the hammer boom youre down
