Thank you devs, very cool!
Theres been a lot of bad totem spawns lately, thought I'd share a really good one i had! It was ruin too.

It's the same spot as before though.7

That totem spot isn't bad. It's been here for ages I think a year or something. I've learnt to predict it as survivor but yeah most survivors do not seem to understand that spot. But if they play killer enough, they will know it.

@Tzeentchling9 Its still a really good spot. It was only found when a survivor accidentally ran past it in a chase0

It's actually positioned in the point where you HAVE to view it from a certain angle to see it, which btw in this case, considering the cow tree is right behind that pallet, wouldn't be often at all..
Obviously, if you just turn out camera more or just walk towards it from the angle that the Killer's in right now currently, it isn't hard to spot.
But boi, have I missed dozens of totems at first from this spawn. It's a good spot that requires you to look, atleast.

But if they play killer enough, they will know it.It's specifically new, they added the LOS blocker with the barrel. Also, moving the location slightly. I've noticed it on some maps, mainly the older ones.

Oohh same spot, but with an added barrel!
It's just like putting a totem around the killer shack inside the killer shack! GENIUS!

@Swiftblade131 it wasn't found until I chased someone by it. You can only see it from the angle I was standing at.0

General knowledge for totems should also be to check areas that are common for totem spawns, this being one of them.

There is a great one hidden in Autohaven Wreckers in the main garage on Wretched Shop, with the car in the middle, at the very back of the room behind some tyres. "God bless Small game!" is all I can say!

@Swiftblade131 you can't see it through any cracks, there was a locker on the other side along with 2 barrels. Finding it would've been pure luck had they not been chased there.0

There's stuff like this...
Then there's the devs insisting on keeping Totems on hills.
Idc how hidden you keep them on hills, as long as players know they can spawn on hills, they'll search them.
And hills are hard to miss.0 -
Yeah looks improved to me

I am sure nobody saw that totem..... xD Right? @Speshul_Kitten

killers should be able to place their own totems, like traps! There’s no reason this shouldn’t be implemented as a standard part of game play2 -

I think the devs are kind of afraid that the killers will find places that will not allow survivors to break the totems.
But I agree, it should be implemented somehow.

This! Instead of reworking the entire spawns and maybe fixing the problem of totems they could just implement this and the problem is 100% solved.It could even be done during the load screen with a time limit so game play isn't effected.

Or as I've said when u pick the perk it loads all the maps and let's u place it0

That’s a lot of variations to load and place, all those tiles and rotations, you’d be there all day.
Or the killer could just spawn with it and place it just like the traps get placed.

I never understood why that wasn’t the option to start with to be honest, as soon as they are placed they become active and can’t be replaced, obviously NOED wouldn’t be in this category as that would be abused.Ryuhi said:@Paddy4583 said:

I also don’t think any totems should be lit, they should all be dull and stay that way, there is no need to make them easier to spot for a survivor.
Totems need to have more risk added to them, so that cleansing them causes an effect on the survivor.

The problem is still survivors spawning near them.
It puts me at one end of the map and my totem at the other. There are 2 gens near it, one at each side. I walk over and both gens are being worked on as the survivors spawned there so needless to say it wasn't long before they cleansed it.
But these barrels and stuff....some are kinda crap, some are actually pretty good. Can't remember the map but I did have a good one the other day where you couldn't see it unless you were at the side near to the wall.0 -

While that's certainly a problem, it'd remove pressure from devs to try and find places that satisfy Hex users and let us find our own places instead. (I already have a pretty cheeky spot in mind for Disturbed Ward.)
Besides, we'd be QA testers: We'd find spots, and then either we report them or we get reported by Survivors and they'll fix it.
They can put boundary detectors on placements too, like how Bear Traps have them, so we can't squeeze them between two objects and making it impossible to cleanse.1 -
They should really remove all the spawns next to gens, for the love of God...Speshul_Kitten said:Yeah looks improved to me0 -

I've been around for a while.
I'm VERY certain they know about placing Totems for a while now.0
