Wesker grab blocks exit gate ??
bad team mates all night , I finally get a good team, I take a protection hit for a survivor for us to escape through open gate, i get slammed and the exit gate blocks like blood warden and i cant escape while everyone else does ???
is this a bug because the other survivors walked out exactly the same time.... no perks for it and I can't see anything in Weskers text to say it does ??

It is an intended function of his power.
It doesn't say it in Twins or Wesker's power descriptions either.

No, that is not a bug.
If Wesker grabs you at the Gate, it will block for a short time.

It's not a bug. The blocker goes up so that he can slam you against it, but it lingers for a few seconds. He's a killer like Twins or Deathslinger where it's better to bail than it is to do anything saucy or daring at the gates.
Really sucks to have that happen after a bad string of games, though. I feel you... you finally get a match where you make it to the end and then something dumb happens.

why put a feature into the game without actually putting it in the text :/ if I knew that I wouldnt have lined up for it.

i'm beyond sick of it
solo survivor i'm constantly matched with bad players that can't stay up for more than 10 seconds vs m1 killers, 5 or 6 games in a row dead and the one game i'm about to escape I don't because of them adding "features" without actually stating that its a feature :./

Did you tried to escape after the grap I have at least been able to make it out if wesker has grapped me while healthy at the gate. The block is only there for few secs and while he downs you with m1 you can get out.

The only time the blocker will make a difference is if you are injured and get tossed into the wall and go down. If you are healthy and just run into the wall weskers cooldown is long enough he cannot injure you via an m1 or another bound before you get through

It is a bit bugged right now. 2 times now I have grabbed an injured survivor at the gate and I pick up the survivor, but the game says they have escaped. Meanwhile I am holding them and can take them to a hook. I don't get the kill, though.
If they were at the gate and left on their screen but not on mine due to ping I would understand, but this is before they are at the barrier, I slam them against the wall and it says they escape. Rather frustrating.
It isn't every time, though. Other times I have grabbed them and they don’t escape, and I hook them.

Its something that needs to be implemented on more killers and powers.
If you down a survivor on gate? Blocked. Pretty simple.
Not all though. If the power only injured it shouldn't block them. If it downs? Maybe, I'm thinking not huntresses hatches though stuff like that.

This also includes Cenobite's possessed chain and even the passive chains if a survivor was caught by one in a gate. However, Wesker's gate blocker via Bound is much weaker than Cenobite and Twins' vs Healthy survivors.

Don't linger with a Wesker.

The blocker isn't long enough that a healthy survivor can't escape if they were grabbed by Wesker. It has a niche purpose of allowing Wesker to throw injured survivors into the exit gate and be able to pick them up without them just escaping.

It doesn’t prevent an escape.

Does it only appear for the person being grabbed perhaps?

You guys do know you can still go through the gates, right? They unblock right as his cooldown finishes so he can't even do anything if you ram your face into the gate like an idiot.

Yeah, best not to play any cute exit gate games against a Wesker. NGL, I do enjoy seeing injured exit gate teabaggers get snatched up right at the threshold.
I've seen it at the gates or while spectating a few times, and it's hilarious every time.
If you're healthy and can somehow get between you and the exit, he can throw you back out and get the down. I've seen this happen once.
So yeah, the takeaway is to just leave.

It's called the "Just leave" feature

If you’re not fully infected or injured you can take a hit, but just stay on the edge of the escape zone until the blocker disappears.

There are so many nuances of killer powers (timings, audio cues, counters, etc.) that are never explained by BHVR within the game. It's honestly kind of annoying. You basically have to devote yourself to studying the wiki, watching lots of videos, reading the forum/reddit, and trial and error to learn all of the subtle mechanics in this game (and you still probably won't learn them all)...I feel bad for new players these days (and it was bad enough when I started playing a couple of years ago).

yes but you still could have escaped if you just held W till the blocker disappears.

I wish every killer had something like this and that it was a one shot when you are in the exit area. You wanna stop to teabag/click? Cool. Then you should be risking getting downed to do it.

lol this mightve been me...
i honestly didn't think it would work, but it did, and that was the most surprising part
playing on coldwind and caught a zarina in the exit gate, felt a lil bad but they looped me the whole game so i killed them...

The grab isn't supposed to cause entity spikes, as this bugfix says.
We can end it there :)

Near to exit gates. When he throws right into exit gates, it's still here.
