Boon Totem Questions
I know many others ask about this but I thought I also ask this as well.
I know I should just wait and see what the boon totem does but I keep seeing that Boon totems can be relit after a killer cleanses it. I was wondering why do they need to be relit? Why can’t they there a limit use on them? I mean I understand that survivors don’t want to deal with No- Ed and that’s fine. But what I mean sometimes Killers need hex totems like no- Ed, Ruin, Devour hope, haunted grounds, etc to keep gen pressure. It’s already more harder since Skill base matching system came to play. Sorry if I sound like I’m rambling and ranting. All I’m really asking is that I would like some cleaner clarification on the subject matter about boon totems since I’m confused about it is all.

Unfortunately we don't know much and what little that has been revealed by both the patch preview and the mods, kinda worries me a bit too. But until we get an idea of what effects the boons will have, and just how strong they are. There's really nothing else we can do right now except wait.

Yeah I agree and yeah all we can do now is wait and hope for the best.

If each survivor can have a boon totem, and each killer hex occupies a totem, doesn't that require at least 8 totems at the start of the game?
But the game only starts at 5 totems, unless each player running boom perks spawns an additional totem, which can give them the benefits but could also be used by the killer to have their NOED activate.
There's also the question if the boon totem, after being deactivated by the killer can spawn the NOED, I mean, if NOED can go "on hold" just like Adrenaline and activate when the killer deactivates a boon totem after all gens are done (let's suppose there were no dull totems available before).

Yeah I get what you’re saying because yeah there are only 5 totems at the start of the trail. So yeah that would mean that everyone would either get a totem each or unless they add more totems. I mean killer can also bring undying to help a little bit too. But I also feel what wouldn’t mattered either cause of the boon totems canceling everything out. I also feel that if all totems are destroyed then there be no need for no-ed or the boon totems.

I didn't know boon totems could be relit?! That's very interesting, if that's the case these new perks shouldn't be overpowered, otherwise it would result in a disaster.
