Having only 1/+1 blight hook is unfair for killers vs survivors
Survivors better not be able to sabo them because otherwise that would just be grossly unfair too.
It’s fine for survivors because a) people who put in petals automatically get blight points and b) gens are easy to find
Meanwhile killers could get completely shafted just by map design and hook rng, on top of bad sportsmanship by survivors.
I think killers should have 4 base hooks, designed to be guaranteed in each of the four sides of the map - and/or basement hooks should automatically be guaranteed as blight hooks.
It might even be nice for killers who put in petals to also receive blight points from completed blight gens, vice versa for survivors who put in a petal with hooks too.
This way everyone wins and survivors have an incentive to not gen rush and let killers get event hooks.

Not only that but any event gen done regardless of if you worked on it or not gives you points too.
After 3 years I'm kind of sad the best they can do is make high elo less fun.

wait what? you dont even have to work on an event gen to get the points? i feel like im understanding this wrong because that makes zero sense to me.

wait can you actually sabo event hooks might bring out saboteur

It's always been that way during events like this. It's only bloodpoints and how are you to be expected to work on a solo gen if theres someone on it? i'm pretty sure killers get over 1k more points per hook as well.

what do you expect from these devs? they make the game more casual by the year. they see only short term easy money instead of going for the competitive direction this game desperately needs

The devs removed the ability to sabo event hooks for the last event. I don't know if that is the case this time.

As long as you put in an offering as a survivor, you automatically get the points for every gen.
Killers aren’t so lucky.
You must be lovely to play against.

Well seeing as it's purely for BP and nothing else this time around I kind of expected they wouldn't protect the hooks.

It might be purely bp but it’s still bull that survivors have so many ways to screw the killer out of the event - both as a principle thing and as a “killers have no realistic way to do the same to survivors” thing.
Events should inspire holiday spirit NOT extra toxicity.

I currently run Agitation and Iron Grasp for this very reason.

I completely agree with you. But considering the problems facing the game right now: Balance issues, Dedicated servers, performance issues, to name a few I think we're better off just letting it be since it has no impact on gameplay right now. To focus more effort on making it better when there are actual problems seems like a strange choice to me.
But you're right, events should make the game more enjoyable and not who can out-do the other in a toxic fight.

Ah yes after 3 years they haven't fixed the one event that tears the community apart. This is ironic since the first Hallowed Blight was a greed fest and the most toxic and hardest event created, and the Devs realized that and took it away. Now our 2nd Withering Blight is back to just the NORMAL TOXIC EVENT we always have, great changes everyone 👏
The community have come up with dozens of different ways to do an Event, damn I even remember a thread last year that was Pinned that asked everyone what kind of event they wanted, HUNDREDS of fair and balanced ideas in there they didn't give us; AWESOME 😍
Instead they chose to focus solely on the Battle Pass to get money from everyone, wonder why they didn't focus on balance and creating an event that everyone could enjoy. Wallets be getting light nowadays.
I love chasing Survivors to the edge of the map because they know that an Event Hook is nowhere near it and I can't possibly hook them; that is so fun <3
