    Usually the words: "Oh #########" are mouthed, followed by totemwatch inbetween gens and getting the heck out of dodge when either I see the killer or hear the terror radius.

    If not downed/on hook I go check the finished gens, most times it's a hex totem the randoms decided not to cleanse even though it was right next to them.

    If I'm on second hook I'll let myself die so teammates have little longer before mori activates.

    Mentally curse my teammates for ignoring every totem they see.

    Though once boon totems arrive I guess breaking totems in most scenarios will be a bad idea so I'll have to finally replace small game in my main build with something else.

    So many of you remain optimistic! I always lose my cool and panic, running around looking for totems not caring if I'm seen by the killer.

    If it is me who gets downed by it, I usually curse my stupid lazy solo teammates who never look out for totems.

    If its not me who gets downed by it, I giggle with glee and become one with the shadows until I find the totem and devour it, using it's energy to become my sustenance and enlarge my ever growing bush.

    If my teammates were toxic or just hiding in bushes and I'm at the point where I want all the suffering to end, I locker spam the killer to come mori me, or run up to them and butt dance while they're moring someone else and patiently wait for my turn.

    Start hunting the totem because my life literally depends on cleansing it.

    I'm usually the one downed by Devour Hope because I don't care or not if I get spotted which generally means I get spotted a lot.

    I usually just shrug and go 'oh okay'.

    If I'm not the lucky survivor that goes down I usually just shift into being a gen jockey since the natural instinct people have is to go on a totem hunt and I know the killer is going to step away from the hook and defend his totem so...gen jockey.

    Worst case scenario I get a unique death animation. I don't really mind it. I'm not gonna go out of my way to see the mori animation but if it happens, it happens.

    if i see the notifications saying

    exposed: devour hope

    I check all the spot's i know a totem spawns for instance on badham there is always one either by the mattress downstairs or next to the desk in the same area downstairs next to where the gen would be

    always check next to shack pallet or near shack

    always check next to tires and also always check every T&L wall

    check the main structures or near them

    check unique loop locations (like the bus on autohaven or the shrines on family residence)

    don't expect it to be in the open (unless your on coldwind or the red forest)

    check in the space behind the lockers in the hallway of midwich

    if it is still not found avoid getting found and do a gen all by itself and make sure there is a locker nearby

    if the killer is a stealth killer welp hope you brought spinechill if not there's nothing you can do except hide in dwight's apartment or duck into the grass and blend like p3 claudette (unless your wearing a blighted collection outfit, neon nights collection, or seoul sight's collecton outfit's.

    basically step 1. try and find it. step 2. do gens. step 3 attempt to hide and hope somebody else finds it. step 4 get found by the doctor with distressing, bbq, im all ears and infectious fright and get shocked to death by devour with 5 tokens

    Step 1:Lie Down

    Step 2:Cry

    Step 3:Pray to RNG-esus

    Step 4:Devour gets Broken or R.I.P.

    Basically it becomes "Totems Time!", unless only 1 gen is left, or 2 near completion. 😅

    I roll my eyes every time. And then I end up mori'd because some genius decided to unhook the 5th Survivor while I was being chased, far away from the hooked person.

    My eyes nearly get stuck in the rolling position when it's a Killer with a garbage mori... and it usually is. I just want to see good moris like Pinhead's and Myers', not Pig's and Spirit's... 😶

    I wonder how the hell I didn't already cleanse it. It would really scare me if it took that many hooks to find it. Like, I would probably just give up.

    One shot a couple more Survivors and start the Mori train.

    It depends on what stage the match is at, and also what killer we're playing against for me. If I'm working on a near completed gen and it's one of the last two, then I will finish that gen before doing anything.

    Then I will try to find the totem whilst moving to another gen - I will still prioritise the generators over the totem if it's late stage of the match, the worst thing that happens is when all 4 survivors rush about trying to find the totem and nobody does a generator - that's when the snowball usually happens, especially with higher mobility killers.

    I love Devour Hope matches though, it just adds such a bit more spice to the matches!

    My first thought: Again? XDDD


    I then enjoy the show with Kindred as everyone squats in the corner doing nothing or self-care. Meanwhile, I'm looking for the totem.

    Make a mental note to add it to the list of perks the killer equipped, curse against the Claudette that wants to be healed RIGHT NOW and start checking totem spots

  • Kira4Evr

    I can usually tell if they have Devour Hope before it's revealed for me. And if that's the case, I look for the totems before I start doing gens.

    But if I don't know before it gets revealed, I'm just hoping the killer didn't pair it with Thrill. Because if Devour paired with Undying, one totem would probably already have been cleansed by me. But if the killer it's paired with Thrill. I just give up lmao

    Because as soon as I start cleansing, the killer will go straight to the totem. And because of the 30% cleansing penalty, the killer will be able to down me before I get to cleans it.

    I'm in agreement on that, I think the balance between risk and reward is perfect with this perk.

    It's usually dead by then in my case because I often run DetHunch.

    But if I'm on field medic Jake or dumpster diver David, it's full on panic time.

    I have 2 reactions


    "Oh {BAD WORD} its devour"

    And have flashbacks to when I would never upgrade devour hope so I could get a stealthy mori off
