Move totems and lockers away from pallets and windows

Killed several times by stupid mistakes of jumping in to a locker instead of windows or doing a totem instead of throwing a pallet

    Try moving away from the locker, but still in range of vaulting (done that mistake once in a chase, got myself killed)

    I was closing in on a survivor as Killer once and she kept repeatedly sitting down to cleanse a totem instead of vaulting. I felt sorry for her, considered letting her go. :P

    Huh? I can see the lockers part, but totems? Excus me, but totems are cleansed with another button. Both on keyboard-mouse and gamepad. And lockers aren't actually a problem since 2016. They're moved far enough from windows and have a much smaller interaction zone now. the only reason for you to jump in them accidentally would be te fact that you spam a button when you're nowhere near pallet/window or you being turned into it by Hag's trap (like in the shack).

    Why are you using space to cleanse totems?

    The survivor stopped running away. They didn't try to vault because vaulting is space while cleansing is LMB...

    Totems ? Quite weird, I agree. With totems I didn't had any problems, and with the locjers a long time ago. Simply calm and control of the chase (and a bit of distance) should be enough.
