Flame turrets are essentially the same mistake as EMPs

I understand the thought process behind giving survivors an interactive counter to a killer power. But these things need to be tested under the assumption that a certain percentage of players are going to deploy them at all times, run to them at all times, and essentially use them optimally at all times. You have to ask if these things are too powerful if they're used optimally at all times. EMPs were the first example of this. Even after nerfs, high level survivors are still able to mostly lock Singularity out of his power with EMPs.

Flame turrets have mostly been the same case with Xenomorph so far. By the time I hear it, I'm out of my power. Their range is massive and they knock you out of your power quickly. All four survivors run to the turrets in chase in my games so far, and every survivor always takes the time to deploy a turret. I gain no benefit from destroying them, only a slightly less severe downside. I trade losing my power+massive distance loss for just massive distance loss. I gain no benefit from trying to play around cover. A good survivor uses that opportunity to make distance.

It's similar to how EMPs relate to Singularity's Overclock mode. Overclock isn't nearly strong enough in high level play to warrant how hard EMPs counter his power. Xenomorph is knocked out of its power for way, way, way too long relative to how long the range of the turret is and how quickly it burns you out of your power. I play on 3200 DPI and sometimes I'm knocked out of my power by the time I can even spin and attempt to hit the turret with my tail.
