Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    yeah hex perks are dead and they will probably never be worth using. it doesnt even matter how strong the perk is if your killer has no reliable way to protect the totem the perk could let you insta mori every surv on first down and it would still be bad cause its gone in 9/10 games before you can down a surv

    Past interactions between community managers and users
    Q: Hex Park is disabled too quickly and its effects are too weak. What do you think about management?
    A: Hex Park is too powerful, so we must prepare countermeasures.

    This perception has been going on for years, so their countermeasure is to create totems where everyone can see them.

    You don't want to know why they stopped to hide the totems in better spots, it's actually a stupid reason

    Basically, when boons came out, there was some spots, that were so tight, and killers couldn't snuff the boon totems, and they just stopped to put totems in a difficult spots so killers can snuff them, and nowadays totems are in a easy spot and it's actually impressive how easy they are to find now

    Guys, do you think survivors will ever be able to find the totem featured in this picture? sorry, it's kinda funny xD

    Seriously though, totems should be hidden away.

    Map is too small. It's so easy to find totems…probably the only good thing about the rework depending on which side you're on.

    Thats the point hexes are supposed to be super strong but very vulnerable. If players have to waste time getting rid of the hex have less players doing gens and you get a audible alert.

    I'd agree but this and the theater totem are literally next to a generator, there's vulnerable and then there's just waving a neon sign saying "CLEANSE ME"

    We've been saying this for years, it's ignored. This is what makes hexes so bad.

    If only Totems have to be within close proximity of a generator they need to be so well hidden, that you shouldn't be able to spot it with your sight when working on the generator.

    Like totems spawns need to be within tiles or loops that doesn't contain a Generators, or at least in a obscure part of the map. Like for example, that one amazing totem spawn inside a laundry cart inside the Doctor's aylsum map.

    Totems that spawn on top of hills, need to be removed or make the rng totem impossible to spawn next to main objective
