People Abusing Pallets: Pallet-Slamming Cooldown Could Be Useful

Though this anniversary event is really unique and exciting, some survivors are starting to abuse the ability to rebuild pallets (I know, the killer's ability to Expose people is strong, but at least it's very limited), and I don't think they disappear.

As I talked before about the annoyance on pre-dropping, the one benefit a lot of people said was that it wasted pallets, giving free dead-zones later in the game.

However, now that you are able to rebuild pallets fairly often, this ability entirely gives no benefit to killers for the wasted pallets. The ability is absolutely horrid on the worst of maps, allowing them to renew god pallets.

A cooldown on dropping pallets could possibly be really good (even without the event ability), as it might decrease the chance on pre-dropping as well as fight against pallet-full maps (if they don't get toned down first), which can be insanely annoying to weaker killers, as well as highly boring.

Though there are ways to counteract the anniversary's pallet forming ability, people with high skill at looping can abuse this well. Could almost go back and forth between the same loops.

    True, and there is the ability to decrease stun duration, but with skill, then they can still frustrate you. The professional loopers can actually abuse this extremely well.

    Didn't really have an issue with it.

    I actually like this anniversary mechanic on both sides. Wouldn't really mind if it was implemented as base mechanic. Expose effect on killers should be on like blood lust 3 or something. It is too strong imo, but I usually use it to break pallets.
