Flashlight as a new player
Being 31 secs blinded by 1 survivor its excessive. I cant imagine 4 survivors who whant to blind the killer taking turns to do it. This should be nerfed

I can give you tip that will immediately nerf flashlight for you. Once you are blinded and u don't see anything, look either up or down (it usually doesn't matter, but if you are on stairs - look so that you can't be blinded) - this way it's impossible to get chain blinded*
(with exception to pallets - if you get stunned and blinded AND u decide to break the pallet while blinded - survivor can chain blind u in breaking pallet animation). Not counting this interaction, you can't ever be chain blinded again

Thanks for the tip, but for new players there is no tips in the game. 3 friends bought the game a few days, maybe 2 weeks ago and they stop playing bc of this and the gestures survivos do after the blind chain. There is only 1 skill the whole game which can help killers with this situation and the moment survivors notice that you are using it they flame and insult you after the match. This happens to me every day. Flashlights with mines and grenades need a nerf or a change on how they interact with the player, maybe an internal CD so the killer can not be blind over and over again, maybe more perks wich can help address this problem and as an off topic, the report system for verbal abuse should do something, but thats for another post. Thanks for reading

i don't get it, you're standing still not making any effort to move or dodge it.
how do flashlights need a nerf because of that?? they shouldn't be able to chain blind you if you just looked up or down or away or just chased them.
flashlights are pretty easy to deal with and you really don't need "lightborn" for it but if you must then just use it and don't care what anyone says.

No they really don't need changes. Flashlights have counterplay and you have to learn that. You say you're a new player so it sounds like you'd rather complain on the forums than to learn how to play around things. For chain blinds it's as easy as looking up or down, and for not getting blinded on pick up either face a wall when available or hunt for people when you know they'll be waiting nearby to get the blind off. It's called situational awareness. And if you're still bothered by it then just run lightborn. People who do get mad about it are few and far between, and even if you come across them why do you care what they have to say? They aren't exactly the brightest bulbs in the shed if that's what they're getting mad over a meme perk so their opinion shouldn't matter at all to you.
