in Bug Reporting

-Platform PlayStation- When I play as the cenobite and pick up the lament configuration the chain hunt starts but no chains spawn on anyone and after the chain hunt is over I can't use my chains and I can't teleport when people try to solve the box.

    Came here to confirm same thing. Doesn't matter if you hook someone, down them, pick them up, break a pallet, etc. it will not reset your power and allow you to use it again. The bug only happens when you pick up the box from the ground. If you hit a survivor and down them while they are carrying the box, you don't get this bug after getting the box from them. Again - It's only when picked off the ground.

    So until it's fixed, if you see it on the ground, just let it be :/

    Exact same thing happened to me. Had a daily where I had to bind survivors 4 times. Game started, found box, then chain hunt was useless, and I couldn't M2 or teleport to box.

    I can confirm that its the same on pc. I hadnt tried to use the chains before chain hunt. but had a hard time chasing people with cenobite.

    Same for me as well. Started a match and got the lament right off bat. Bugged out rest of game.

    I started a quick Bot match to check and I started with my M2. It seems picking up the box is what triggers the bug. Not confirmed though.

    The bug is triggered by picking up the box as pinhead if survivors don't grab it.

    Happens to me too. Anytime i pick up the box I become just a powerless m1 killer.

    Sidenote it does also not work if the killer downs you while holding the box
