I think they did a pretty good job.

    I get where you are coming from. But keep in mind that the spots where totems can spawn on each map are fixed. The game just chooses 5 spots out of them. This means that with enough experience, or effort to learn them through KYF, survivors can actually find those well hidden totems. So I don't think it justifies the chance of having the totem spawn in plain sight like that (at least put a rock there or something).

    Still think the killer should be able to place it himself once per match.

    Ok but come on u can't say that that isn't the worst spot when it could have literally been anywhere else? also u see your point but can we at least agree that putting in spots like that or right next to a gen is completely stupid and at least try to look for them?

    Can there once be a thread were well-hidden Totems are posted? But nope, nobody would mention the actual awesome Totem Spots which exist. Better open Thread Number 38238238238 about bad Totem Spots.

    Yes, this spot sucks.

    Is every Totem Spot like that? Hell, no.

    While it is an easily spotted spot it’s also easily spotted by the killer from far away and many killers can protect it this way! You don’t have to cross half the map to see if a survivor is nearby or on it, and can even check mid-chase of another survivor.

    if I happen to spawn near this totem as survivor I sure as hell will not destroy it immediately because it is very risky, I will wait until I know the killer is busy.

    I posted this more for a laugh than anything.


    Yes, the indoor maps (and backwater) can have some ridiculous totem spots, but as someone mentioned, there are fixed spots and can be found. However this spot is just so ridiculous, I don't even know why that's a totem spot. As totems can spawn in the same places as some generators, I assume this is the case in this scenario. However, I feel this spot shouldn't be allowed for a totem spawn. Although I haven't seen such a ridiculous totem spawn in a while, or at least not a hex one. Maybe it happened to the recent map changes?
