These totem spawn locations are absolutely horrible

How are they still this bad? Right in the open for anyone to easily see on most maps. If gens are going to fly as easily as they do, totems need to be way more hidden to even allow counter play

Hex totems should never spawn near a survivor at the start of a game. Kinda defeats the purpose when they pop it as the match starts

    It is, I've gotten it as Survivor and Killer.

    I'm pretty sure it's a bug though, because those cars can spawn a tree and tires to act as LOS blockers.

    Totems should not be visible when just running around. They should be hidden so much better. "L" "T" walls are a perfect example of a terrible spot, as well as on the asylum map, where they are in the open. I would even be open to them spawning on Z walls that appear on the outskirts of the map.

    They've been getting worked on for years ironically. Yet they're still absolutely terrible.

    They should be hidden well enough that you only find them when you're actually looking for them. What we have currently is you just randomly run into all of them during your loops by accident...or just look across the field.

    Honestly I feel that the totem rehide and buff to small game should be its own mid chapter patch,

    New small game I feel should work like this to be better team centered both for swf and solo queue

    You have the undeniable capability to sense danger.

    Reveal the aura when looking in the direction of Totems in a 45° cone within a range of 10/11/12 metres.

    Aura is revealed to all survivors until the totem is cleansed

    Small Game has a cool-down of 30/30/30 seconds each time it activates.

    Only the new recent maps have decent totems spot, they didnt changed any totem spots on old maps.
