The main reason I don't like flashlights

Yes their useful to get a nice little save or maybe even make distance when blinding at a pallet but the main is the saving part...as a survivor. I can be injured trying to run the killer around and I see a teammate hoping they'll try taking a hit just so I don't go down a nice little help thing then I notice it the flashlight and it dawns on me their not going to save me their waiting for me to go down to get a blind. So I go down and guess what happens they don't get the blind even by a mile then I'm hooked. I just had a match with a joke who I'm not kidding followed a Leon who was in chase around just to get a flashlight save which he didn't get. My guy the Leon spent a couple minutes distracting the killer you can get a gen started or done in that time. Anyways yeah I hate flashlights for that reason.

    I’m not 100% sure but it feels like they changed the timing for flashlighting; seems like the window is tighter. I suck with them and now i struggle to even blind killers at pallet breaks. They have time to look up or down just as im about to get the blind, so it fails.
