I didn't really know how to word the title so sorry if you find it slightly misleading.

So I know that obviously Thrill of the hunt gives the audio cue when someone is cleansing your totem, but I feel this should just be the norm. obviously i don't mean totems should also be cleansed slower naturally but this particular aspect of Thrill of the hunt just feels like it should be a built in mechanic for killers.

What do you guys think?

    I agree but what would Thrill of the Hunt do?

    I mean it obviously would still increase bloodpoints and increase clensing time, but maybe it could add some sort of stealth factor to totems. Maybe you don't know which totem is the hex one until you cleanse it?

    IMO a better option would be that destroying a Hex totem puts some kind of "curse" on the survivor that destroys it. Nothing major, but like for Ruin maybe it removes their ability to perform great skill checks when repairing. Then there is some cost to just charging at a totem early on, especially if it has a stronger curse with it. Like, say destroying Devour Hope put you into the Exposed state for 60 seconds. I wouldn't go breaking that totem if I spawned by it just because I would want to find out what it is first, or at the very least way until the killer is busy so I can destroy it then hide for that time.
