Are you totally INvulnerable to flashlightS with LightBorn + looking UP while surv over shoulder?
I think LB + looking UP protects you 100% against regular flashlights in the event of putting a surv over your shoulder
BUT
does it protect you against purple flashlight + TOP add-ons? or maybe against more than 1 purple at once??
TIA

Easily. With Lightborn you have a few seconds to look up to avoid the Flashlight (I think it is 4 seconds). The only way to get blinded with Lightborn is if you keep staring at the Flashlight.

yes but I mean in the event of taking the surv from the floor and put it in your shoulder, which I think is impossible to look up and eventually get blind with purple flashlights + TOP add-ons??

No addon decreases the time needed to blind a killer. It doesn't matter,unless people double blind. All flashlights blind at the same rate,unless like I said you double blind the killer.

with lightborn they cant time the flashlight so you cant get blinded unless you allow them to by looking to teh flashlight for several seconds.

No, Lightburn can't protect you all the way through the picking up animation if the Survivor knows, times it well and starts early enough.
Which is why, before picking them up, you look in a direction, do a quick 180, and then pick them up.
They can't re-position themselves in time.
Of course, you'd have to make sure they aren't actually in the direction where you 180 towards.

I don't know if it's impossible but it's unlikely a survivor will get a save if you're running lightborn. I run it for pallet blinds anyway, will get you anything between a free hit and unlimited free hits depending on how smart the survivor is.

From my experience with Lightborn it is really rare to only get one hit. Most Survivors try to blind multiple times.
(which is something that shows that many Survivors cannot use Flashlights. Because they will not figure out it is Lightborn, but doubt themselves if they made a mistake and try again)

Yeah to be fair I'd probably be one of the survivors trying multiple times, my aim isn't great and hardly anyone runs lightborn.

It's still possible to get flashlight saves even if killer is using lightborn, you need to start blinding almost beginning of the animation (depends what flashlight you are using)
I remember testing it with purple flash and it was still possible to blind the killer when he is doing pallet breaking animation, but if he used brutal strength + flashlight it's impossible.

How about when taking a surv from the floor? Is in that scenario possible? (In fact this is the original question unanswered)🙏

mostly survivor not gonna flashlight you when you start picking up but when you already 50% picking up survivor, so if you use LB you have a time to avoid it or hit survivor who trying to flashlight saving

If they aren't expecting lightborn than no. Most people will stop trying to blind you after their time.
