How do the M1 killers counter people that loop buildings?

I get what you're saying, but the pallets aren't even the problem. The problem is you get maps like the one that has the barn or grain silo or car park and there are two windows in those buildings and people just loop those buildings over and over again because of the survivor being able to vault faster than the killer. This renders the perk bamboozle completely useless.

If the perk prevented people from using any window the killer went through for 30 seconds then we may have something, but for now they band-aid fixed something that didn't need a fix as bad (jungle gym windows), and every killer that isn't the nurse gets smacked by people that sprint burst to the building and then run it 3 times and then get hit and maybe do it all over again. It is a massive waste of time and completely skilless and what is even more disgusting is some of the killvivor mains (the killers that don't like to camp/patrol and play by the survivors rules) that tell us that survivors can't do things like breaking LOS.

Yep, like you said it's just a band aid fix. There's not as many infinites as there used to be, but there are still quite a few. At this point I just pray not to get a map with a massive looping area. But going after different people is the only strat I've found any success with. And it's not even much success.

The counter is pretty simple : unless you get a pretty big advantage, don't go near these buildings. And if you truly want to, try to make yourself unpredictable, at least as much as you can.

Why should survivors be allowed to have safe spaces? This is essentially what it is.

They aren't actually safe spaces. They're just overly strong juking spots that will ruin your match if you try to follow through, because, even tho you will eventually catch up at some point, it will be way too time consuming to be worth it.

Obviously, It's not very balanced, but killers had to deal with way worse back then, and I doubt devs will completely revamp great juking spots.

One of the main issue is the conjonction with Self-care, that allows people to just sprint to these spots and self-care directly there without any help if you drop them, which makes it rather riskless.

Strategically speaking, a way to counter survivors from looping is to position all generators so that as the killer you can easily maneuver between each one (though I have minimal experience in this counter-method). Determine the 3 generators that are close to each other and spend more time protecting those generators, especially if the game is getting close to all survivors escaping, often visiting them. By patrolling these generators, you're practically forcing the game to a stale-mate with the chance to at least knock-down a survivor or two.

Don't go for chases, and instead scare survivors to pull down pallets or vault windows.

Though at some point you definitely need to prioritize easier targets/areas that aren't heavily windowed/pallet based. As Runiver said, don't go near the buildings, though there are exceptions to everything.

I forgot to mention that you should also use survivors as bait... if survivors are going to loop, then its your job to play smart and find a way to lure survivors into unfavorable conditions.
