Shroud of Separation..
Is this another killer placebo? I used this offering, which says "All survivors start the trial separated". I have felt this offering rarely did what it said it was supposed to do.. so I used it, and put on Discordance.
Survivors only used an Ormond offering, no shrouds of their own.
Before I can even get to the shack, Discordance goes off. 5 seconds later, it goes off on another gen.
So in probably 15 seconds, you have 2 groups of 2 survivors, on 2 gens. Magical.
Try it out sometime.. it works great. Get real..

Shroud of separation is literally a downside for killers to run, because survivors splitting up is the most detrimental thing for a killer. Without Ruin, 3 survivors holding M1 on different gens at the start of the game with a guaranteed completion in 80s is scary. The killer can't be in 4 places at once so basically 3 gens will go in just over a minute, and at opposite sides of the map.

Well, it should still be functional even if not really beneficial for the killer, shouldn’t it?
i have noticed this as survivor as well, thinking it must be a mori because we started together but then it was really just the Shroud which didn’t work.. Killer can’t even be sure if it works or not

What @ALostPuppy said. Burn shroud of separation if you want a challenging game, as it puts you at a disadvantage by splitting up survivors.
I'd argue that you actually got lucky in your game in the fact that survivors got together and only pressured 2 gens instead of 3 or 4

They need to change the shrouds. It's way better for the killer for survivors to be together.
Though you too sacrifice one gen with it maybe 2 if they split up

Shroud of separation has been busted for a long time. I used it a couple of times as old Freddy with black box, the person who -spawned next to them- just woke them up instantly.

Using SoS is begging to play on extremely hard mode.
All survivors will be separated, thus repairing 4 different gens at the start of the game, what's more: they'll think they are facing a mori and will do their best to survive, meaning that there will be literally 0 time for mistakes.

This! I see this when I play survivor all the time. Out of ten games I maybe spawned in alone once (with no offerings to cause it). Most of the time it's me and someone else or just everyone. These spawns need to be fixed but we all know that from totems, gens and pallets right?

Yeah, I am pretty sure it is bugged or at least not working as intended. I almost never spawn alone, the majority of time all 4 Survivors spawn at the same Location. And of course the first Gen is done fast when they spawn like this.
I really hope they change it.
@Topic:
The Shroud is something that is not that useful for Killer. The Killers Shrout should be the Shroud of Binding and vice-versa. This would benefit some Killers, like for Legion, it would be great if they all spawn together.
(But this is what they do anyway...Like said above)

Whether or not it's useful isn't the point.. it's whether or not the offering is working as intended, which it doesn't seem to be.
I tend to use Shroud when I can tell they are SWF or if i see alot of toolboxes.. 2-3 toolboxes on 1 gen means it's done before i can get there.
2-3 toolboxes separated.. they have to find the gens before they can work on them, and I might find them during their search. I'll take my chances with this instead of conceding a gen or 2.
