About the new event hotfix
Increased Killer event points
Points for hooking a Survivor: From 2 to 3
Points for destroying a Lunar Vessel: From 3 to 4
These points will be live but not be reflected visually in the event menu “Objectives” details until the patch arrives.
This solves nothing and the reason is the killer still get less just make so when you kill the survivor by hooking him/her you get all the point you can get or keep the way is now and add if you get 4K (hooks only) get all the point you will get from hooking them 3 times.

I think his point is that when it comes to killers, we will always get the slower balance updates while survivors take the giant steps.

As much as it sucks, they can not boost killer event points that much because we would end in a situation similar to the Hallowed blight one, everyone playing killer lobby sim.

Killer can get 36 points for a perfect 4 kill. Where he hooks everyone 3 times, no one suicides and no one disconnects.DarkGGhost said:@Tsulan said:

Plus the points for the lanterns. If no one makes an offering its 8 points for 2 destroyed lanterns.
Maybe I'm pessimistic, but I doubt that this will increase the killer population.0 -

Hooks could be five points each, destruction could be 10/15. Survivors still would get the better deal but killers wouldn't feel the sting as badly.

Killer who is playing alone is supposed to play perfectly. Survivors don't even have to touch a gen and still get full points if they are alive while a gen is repaired.Condorloco_26 said:As much as it sucks, they can not boost killer event points that much because we would end in a situation similar to the Hallowed blight one, everyone playing killer lobby sim.
That's the big problem.
Survivors can be lazy and get full points.2 -

I think that would be too much actually. 5 points a hook would result in 60 points total considering 12 hooks. Plus 1 or 2 lanterns, an additional 10 or 20 points? Killer lobby sim 2019

True, I didn't do the math. But while I did make a mistake, you've also assumed that it will ever get to that point. Some people (me) forget that lanterns exist/can't find a lantern. So 3-4 per hook and 7-8 per destruction? I dunno. Math is not my forte.

Survivors can be lazy and get full points.You're right about this, no way around it. But the way I deal with it is thinking I get to play more matches in an hour, compared to playing as a survivor. In the end though, survivors still get more points, but maybe half the playtime.

Yeah I don't even bother with the lanterns now. Not worth the loss of pressure, and I can't even find the damn things. Maybe those 7 - 8 points would encourage looking for them.

Progression will be slightly higher which miiiight entice more killers to play, so that's something?

Yeah sure...
Wanna bet? The hotfix won't improve survivor queues.The only way to make Q time faster is eithe give the killers way more point for the event or make it harder for the survivors

I wanted 1 cosmetic out of this and I got it so I don't need to play Survivor for points anymore. This has no effect on me but I agree with everyone here, it's a small step that may or may not work, I'm leaning towards may not.
They just need to stop making these events competitive, these events seperate the community and Survivors abuse the mechanics as much as possible to win and the Killers ALWAYS lose out on points. We have Survivors who run into corners so we can't take them to Event hooks and now we have Survivors who insta-save and steal the lantern the moment it respawns and if someone dies you don't have enough time to get the lantern, it's BS. These events need to change into a balanced fair game so everyone can win, that's not asymmetrical I know but in the events I don't think it should be.

Correct. But the second one will never happen, because of survivors and their pitchforks.DarkGGhost said:@Tsulan said:
