Flashlight stun during pallet break is a bug

While breaking a pallet the killer is effectively stunned. 1 he/she can't look up 2 he/she has to spend 2 seconds while breaking it. How does the flashlight beam hits my eyes while I am litteraly looking to the groung? I think this is a bug. If the survivor wants to wait for the break animation to complete than try to blind that is her/his bussiness.

Also while picking up a survivor the killer cant walk or look away so flashlight blind is giving no choice for the killer in the 2 seconds while he is picking up a survivor either.

PS: For the people taking the defensive approach towards this clear bug: How would you like it they remove the no damage during the unhook animation would that be fun?

    well it's a form counter play and the survivors are the "week" in this game so i don't think that will change any time soon and yes i think you should be able to move your head

    So you want to "fix those ""bugs" that are the only times to blind the killer.... Ok

    It's intended. The Flashlight would be completely pointless otherwise.

    I cannot know all the bugs in the game... So I want to fix those I experience... But I understand you... takes a certain personality to enjoy a game where you outnumber one side ;)

    Are you perhaps newer to the game? The flashlight blind at the pallet has been a thing since the beginning I do believe. If it was a bug, they would have fixed it by now. Ways to work around being blinded at the pallet is following off of sound (movement and pain noises) or holding still.

    yes I am very new to the game... I do believe Flashlight Blind at pallets is not the ultimate game breaker... just wanted to point out it is an issue because it forces a situation on you where there is nothing you can do.

    My only objection is I am already not looking into the lens. Any blind right after the break is fair and square

    Also what do you mean "enjoy a game where you outnumber one side"? How it has any relation to only being able to flashlight someone at the pallet

    I believe if you run the Billy perk, it'll counter the flashlights at the pallet if I'm remembering correctly. Regardless, you aren't looking completely at the ground and it's possibly to blind even when you're looking down. The nurse can get blinded, too, while she's fatigued.

    Try flashing someone during a chase. You'll only slow yourself down and gime them a free hit.

    It is kinda bullshit that there is no defense against being blinded while breaking the pallet.

    The normal defense against flashlights is not looking at them. You aren't while breaking the pallet. 

    Packing lightborn every time you see a flashlight, and assuming most people know how to use it?
