Lightborn and Upset Survivors

i rather focus on gen defense than worrying about getting blinded 24/7

Yeah, there's no avoiding a pallet blind, but it's a stupid play for the survivor in almost all applications. They lose distance, and seem to forget you can still hear them (unless they don't run, but if you don't hear them running you can assume they're still there).
Tip for survs: unless you need that blind, after dropping a pallet, just run.
As a surv I only pallet blind, I really only even run a flashlight, if I have a blind challenge. Other than that, it's not smart.
As far as Lightborn, I rarely run it it because flashlight counterplay is so effective, but when I do, I try to hide that I have it for as long as I can. I'll play as normal (i.e. facing walls, looking away, repositioning) until some strategic moment and rope-a-dope survs into a trap when they think they have a guaranteed save.
It's not efficient, but it can be hilarious.
The bottom line is that unless they are in the hands of absolutely cracked and coordinated SWFs, flashlights are perhaps the weakest survivor item. Even keys with the right add ons are better.

last 2 words if the first line? thats pretty much to laugh at them (tf, lol = What the #########, laughing out loud)
While you have some good points I dont think that LB is as useless as you make it, my Trapper is one of the few killers where i do use LB (paired with Starstruck). This match is from yesterday. 3 of them were a "no hook group" and you can see what that got them. And this was not even a serious build, i was just messing around to play with Naughty Bear.

My favourite thing about lightborn when you have bullysquads is to react like I'm trying to avoid being blinded and make them doubt their aim. It's amazing how many times the same people will try to blind you before finally realising that you have lightborn. By that point it's generally too late and half the team is on death hook.
Normally it results in either DCs or some toxic end game chat about how bad I am because I decided to run lightborn against a 4 man bully squad.

Um....
lol doesn't mean you're Laughing at them, Huh?
Dunno how you thought My post was an Attack or somethin' against them in the first place in which it wasn't,
It was just Laughing in General.. so Again not an Insult towards said post user,
And yes... LB is Useless imho, It only provides immune towards blinding... That's it,
Other perks provide alot more useful intent than just... 4 man Flashies,
