Please stop making "X Number of Emblems" challenges

That's all. There's too much randomness involved in completing them.

    Yup and certain killers just aren't good at getting them and survivors aren't good at getting them vs. those same killers ironically. Really emblems in general are a mess. Thankfully on the most part this barely ever matters.

    I agree. Especially since it’s so specific how you earn them. For example with the current Gold Evader emblem community challenge, I had a game where the entire match I didn’t even see the killer up until the exit gates were opened. I wasn’t near them the whole time and only got hit as I was running out, yet I didn’t even earn an evader emblem. It was a blank space. I get you need to be bold and sneaky and win chases, but how is completely avoiding the killer the entire match not enough for at least bronze? You only need 4 emblems (and eventually 3 and 2 for the last two community challenges) to benefit the rewards but it’s too dependent on the other players. I can’t control if a killer AFKs the entire round or something like that. Or maybe I’m just a ######### survivor XD

    Yeah alright sure, I'm just gonna get 3 iridescent chaser/evaders, not like that's gonna be something that happens when I actually need them.

    This is exactly the problem. It depends too much on the skill of others and what type of killer you get matched with.

    May I interest you in Tome 4s "Ace's Journey" challenge? Repair 2 gens, unhook 2 survivors, cleanse 2 totems, all in a single trial. Getting four of these done ain't that hard and happens 3 out of 4 games, five is already rare, but all six? You really need quite a bit of luck for that, as there is always something missing. Either your team is dominating, slamming gens and your survivor friends won't get hooked, or the killer is dominating, you easily get the unhooks, but then suddenly two are dead and you must finish the last gen yourself, while still keeping your eyes open for another totem. The horror. In the end it was somewhat amusing, but while trying to finish this challenge I did some scummy things :D Like not opening the gates when the killer approached, as I needed one more unhook. Sadly the killer decided to down and hook me instead of any other and of course they all got pretty mad at me.

    Detective's hunch would be absolutely king for that challenge. Totems are fairly easy to find and it triggers on getting a generator done. It's not easy and honestly anything involving cleansing totems is questionable in terms of actually trying to win the game but there are worse challenges.

    I had Detectives Hunch equipped for this challenge and of course it helped, but you really need the right quantity of luck, as often one piece of the puzzle is missing. You can easily sit on the first gen and then do some quick cleanses, but you must also quickly hop off to get those unhooks done before someone else does so, and then there might be only one gen left! But you still need one more unhook!

    This is why the Emblem system is so confusing and needs a major rework. As others have stated, as a Survivor Evader wont even be rewarded if you go the whole match without being seen by the Killer. So if I, as a Survivor, am able to stealth and be unseen by the Killer the WHOLE match, I dont even get graded, even though by all accounts I perfectly evaded the Killer.

    Or on Killer side, if Im able to end chases and down Survivors super quickly, than my Chaser emblem suffers because the chases aren't LONG enough. So if I want to do "good" by the devs standards, I have to go against common sense.

    And people wonder why the community mocks devs and say they clearly dont play the game
