Killers always break pallets

I've been trying to use Any Means Necessary in red ranks and have noticed that Killers almost always break pallets on loops. Like the odds they'll try to bloodlust or mindgame a moderately safe pallet are almost zero.

The only way I can get Any Means Necessary to work is to loop a pallet and then vault over it and use Lithe to get to the next tile once I need to drop it. Otherwise the Killer will just break it.

    Less hassle and time wasted to just break the pallet since most good survivors will know to stay at those loops. Although sometimes there are those ones that just hold the W key and run away from the pallet because they assume you instantly break it, leading to a very easy hit.

    Basically in my experience, any means necessary is good when you have...special...survivors (almost all the time) and a good killer who knows they can catch up to the W gamers by simply walking around the pallet. Hell I wouldn't even consider it good even then, the cooldown is ridiculously long for it to even be worth it.

    Yeah. Some loops also become nearly infinite if you don't break the pallet. Also SWF will communicate where good pallets are or even pre-drop pallets to create stronger loops. Now on some maps, there are enough pallets that if you run from one to the next, all gens will be done before the killer has broken them all, so it isn't always optimal to break them.
