totems placement are totally fine and are even improving
For sure they are, I always have to baby sit my totem at the very start of the match to see if a survivor spawned right on it when it's this close to a gen, I am so tired of those awful placements

Dump save the best for pop, for your sanities sake.

The risk reward is kinda the balance of a totem perk though. If you were guaranteed a good spot devour and ruin would be insanely good

They go down instantly every time, even against people who don't know the places for them, because they're so obvious. They need to not spawn right next to gens and places in the open!

Can't be any worse than the one on top of the hill on autohaven.
Literally like a beacon if it becomes the hex. It ain't even tucked against a rock, it's essentially on the center of the hill.

What happens when a survivor doesn't feed the killer an immediate down?

No it wouldn't. People can still memorize totem spots, especially with the new OP perk Counterforce.

So if it wouldn’t have any effect then what’s the point in changing it? Totem spawns will never be good since its all so luck dependent in the first place

Well he's a trickster, so that's issue #1.
#2 would be the fact that the jake now knows where the totem is. He will most likely be gunning for that totem whenever he has the ability to.

"Improved" totem placement after map rework.

Gotta work on your satire bro.

I spawned in front of one on Macmillan estate earlier. Felt so bad cleansing it. End of Match i checked his perks, it was his only one. Definitely needs better hiding spots

I save a screenshot everytime my totem spawn next to a gen/in the open like yours, I most likely have 50 screenshots right now, eventually i'll make a video with all of them

I spawned next to a gen and during the camera spin I saw some fire next to a locker looked and indeed ran 3 seconds and cleansed it, 20 seconds in and ruin already gone, I felt the killer pain and felt awful for it.

I main trickster so not an issue.
no jake in the match, Steve and Christ, and yes once you know it the main objective is to cleanse it

I mean it's an objective fact that totem spawns overall have gotten better over time. Does that mean there are zero bad spawns on any maps? No.

The spawns have been improving, they just need to make the obvious a little less obvious. Not hidden in a corner, down a corridor hidden, but like, a little bush in front of it, or just away from gens. Survivors should put a little effort into being able to completely remove a killers perk.
1 -
this is all I want, no totem directly in the FOV of gens and not just standing there nothing hiding it
2 -
I love stbfl and it allows me to hit multiple faster or throw my blades sooner, but maybe I should idk

Yeah they are complete sh*t sometimes but remember when they were that bad ALL the time?
Undying and ruin stay up for a big chunk of the match for me unless there's someone with a map (which is see A LOT).

High risk high reward brother. Even if they hide totems in stronger locations what if the survivors have detective hunch, or counterforce. The totems would still get found quickly.

The issue is simple:
Spawnpoint on older maps (read that everything pre-hag) suffer from being added rather haphazardly to the older maps. When only hag had totems she could easily defend them with traps on these, but then you got more killers with hex perks that did not have that ability.
Let's be honest:
Swamp has nasty spawnpoints, red forest is decent-ish, lery's is obnoxious, yamaoka has spawnpoints i've seen killers being surprised about (in the 'hey, I think my totem bugged out, i had its aura but couldn't find it' sense), ormond is big enough to protect totems and glenvale has some nasty hidden spots (woodpile anyone?)
But every maps that came before hag suffers from ludicrous spawnpoints
2 -
yeah, ormond is trash, but it's BIG. are you really willing to traverse THAT map for totems?
1 -
at least they have to complete 1 gen or clease 1 or more totems to find it so it stays in the match more than 30 seconds
0 -
can't they simply not b 4 meters from a gen please?
0 -
Lol this
1 -
this never gets old
1 -
At least it's not stuck in the tractor and immune like it used to be lol
0 -
better immune than gone in 15 seconds
joke aside, both sucks
0 -
To be fair, they've actually gotten a LOT better than it was at release.
0 -
Yeah, I agree. Hopefully they can fix things.
1 -
maybe but they still sucks
0 -
too lazy for it
