The door is wide open, and may i suggest some anger management..

Killers should be focusing on getting their 3 gens so that it is easier to defend. If you are carelessly allowing survivors to split up the gens near where the boon was blessed, that is solely your fault. At no point is the killer being unable to defend their 3 gens anything other than the killer misplaying. Yea, i can do…
-
inb4 just don’t get 3 genned, just don’t bring boon perks.
-
Yea, the survivor totally knows that the 3 gen is there when they booned it at the start of the match. The killer can decide on their 3 gens based on where all the boons were blessed. If you’re gonna make balance suggestions, at least make it seem like you’re impartial.
-
You act like good killers won’t rekindle the totem within their 3 gen range where they can guard it and defend gens. Sure, let survivors be able to snuff it out instantly like boons. That’ll be fair then.
-
???? Survivors can’t break boons, and why would they do that. fyi hex pentimento works on broken totems. Killers are also able to see where they are. Allowing killers to break totems by snuffing boons is indirectly buffing the hex because it’s a guaranteed win condition.
-
No. That indirectly buffs hex pentimento
-
Yea, it only benefits niche uses. For example, I’m face camped all game and when the gen pops and gates are 99-ed, just because i open the gate i should take the L? I understand where you’re coming from but that would just make solo queue abysmally worse to put up with. All that aside, i’d take double DS buff in most…
-
Sure, deactivate all killer perks and bloodlust when all 5 gens are done, period. Why are you trying to secure a kill when the game is over, it’s not fair for the survivor!! /s
-
Yea, let me just wait for someone to open the gate while he’s literally on me. This is why the devs ignore the forums
-
what does that even mean? Its a perk, not 1v1-ing the killer. Noed should deactivate if the survivors are grouped together by your logic.
-
what is the survivor supposed to do? Just die?
-
Yet they’ve been confirmed by devs as bugs that just haven’t been fixed. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s not an exploit.
-
if you didn’t have ruin/pop/tink BET you won’t kill any survivors. What kind of logic is that lmao
-
and? killers have perks that cut off survivor options too. Sounds fair.
-
The same can be said about a lot of killer perks. But it doesn’t work that way does it? It only fits the narrative when it’s in your favour. ”just do bones lol, it’s a one time hex.” ”just snuff boons.” inb4 boons can be relight endless times, killers have to waste time!! So do the survivors that have to spend time booning…
-
Boons are not hexes, if you want them to be single use their power has to be brought in line like hexes, so will their snuff time. Will you be okay with that?
-
Stop comparing boons to hexes, hexes have a much bigger impact on the game. Boons take significant time to relight and only 1 second to snuff, it’s also pretty damn loud and bright. Idk what’s with the “you can only hear and see if near”. Every time i play killer it’s like a beacon and constant ringing in my ears.…
-
Considering how they’re trying to push 2 kill 2 escape average games since that’s a fair game to the devs.. We’re kinda going in the right direction? You’re not supposed to 4k every game, and most of the time survivors don’t 4 man escape.
-
and… killers got stronger since 2017??? So your issue was never because boons were actually “op”. It’s cause it annoys you that survivors which you deem OP get a perk that aids them? That’s not how balance works.. again.
-
So why are you complaining if nothing changes?
-
and? the survivor has to spend time booning it too. Both sides took time.. Sounds fair to me.
-
It’s not that hard to find them either lol. Its loud and bright. Every time i play killer and see them run back to boon it i chuckle. Free time for me to chase someone else.
-
Its still time taken off the survivor that went to boon/heal etc that you can capitalize on.
-
Sigh, like i said in another post. Stop portraying an extreme scenario and asking for nerfs to either side. There is no way a survivor can heal up “instantly” within the cool down of a hit. Time to find a dull totem, time to boon it. Running across the map to boon to heal, are all time off objectives aka gens. Was that not…
-
No one likes losing, and no one likes their fun taken away from them. Fun is subjective though. Some enjoy face camping and hitting survivors on hook, some enjoy clicking their flashlights non stop and making their pixel characters do way too much squats for their own good. At the end of the day, it’s a video game. People…
-
A little barren and rough around the edges, but i do like the visual aspect of it.
-
Or they could mean it would function like huntress hatches… I hope the f not….
-
10 mill blood points is frankly not that much considering the massive rosters on both sides we now have. That’s excluding prestige too, which frankly i can see how it is a huge turn off for a new player that just wants to get into the game.
-
Cenobite with add-ons and franklins/hoarder were a nightmare to deal with even for SWF’s. That translated to a guaranteed 4k for solo q’s. Add that to the annoyance of his ability that most players flat out refused to interact with by dc-ing when they see pinhead.
-
Just stop with the snarky and pretentious comments whenever someone says otherwise. Definitely makes people want to listen to you. This whole post is a giant bait and people are calling you out for it. Accept it and move on, or don’t.
-
“going to windows and leaving a tile” Leaving a loop is usually a guaranteed free hit because of how fast he moves. That is excluding the wraith bringing speed or uncloaking add-ons. A decent wraith will block the windows and prevent you from vaulting. inb4 “you just got outplayed get better”. The same can be said about…
-
beginners can’t even find the dull totems 🤣
-
judging from their reply my job is done ;) they main killer and painted a narrative because they couldn’t deal with boons. How dare survivors try to survive amirite? But yea, definitely seems like one of those clicky click ima spin the killer but wipes at 4 gens kinda guy
-
Cenobite by himself is not that strong, paired with his add-ons and franklin/hoarders? An absolute menace. Thankfully the devs have addressed his add-ons which should make him more balanced. Overkill on some of the nerfs though.
-
I’d rather play against spirit than nurse tbh, nurse ignores everything that the survivors have to survive. Most games you pray on the nurse making mistakes to not die. Spirit has counter play, she does not ignore loops and windows and floors.
-
Agreed, it’s virtually impossible to perfectly balance with all the perks and killers. To be honest, i don’t think majority of the playerbase actually cares about real balance. They preach wanting balance but anything that they deem “unfun”, which is purely subjective warrants a nerf in their eyes. Survivor perk that…
-
95% of survivors and killers… source? Boons are fair to me because it prevents me from touching gens or unhooking my teammates while i have to spend time looking for a totem, blessing the totem and then healing. All of that takes time, time off objectives. Time the killer could capitalize on. And if it gets snuffed, i will…
-
So you are asking to make boon totems one time use whilst keeping the current snuff time? You don’t see how that’s an issue? What if killer hexes could be snuffed out instantly? That is not how balance works.. Time off boons are time off objectives, no matter how you try to spin it. It’s not a survivor’s fault that you…
-
Even if the same time survivors took to bless a totem was implemented for killers to relight a hex totem. The benefits of a hex totem still outweigh boons. Specifically in the case of NOED and devour hope. So unless they only apply to specific hexes, i don’t think the idea would work in all honesty.
-
Barring certain niche loops on maps where he dominates, his chase isn’t really good… Mind elaborating more?
-
Are the snuffing times for killers gonna be changed to reflect the nerf? Considering they’ll be functioning the same way as hexes if that change is implemented.
-
So what are your propositions to changing the current situation without screwing over the rest of the player base that aren’t as you call “high mmr”?
-
Agree, but do you think it’ll be a problem if a good spirit utilizes that combo? Barring the add-ons being rare and all. Seeing that it would almost guarantee a steamroll, which the devs so desperately want to attempt to facilitate 50-50 matches. To be fair, if it was a good spirit they would be performing well regardless…
-
14 seconds is not long enough? That’s 14 seconds off gens and objectives. On top of that, unless they brought a medkit and healing perks it takes time to heal up. Providing you didn’t already find the survivor. If you’re letting 4 survivors constantly boon totems whilst doing gens and getting unhooks, darling i’m sorry to…
-
Totally agree 100% , but didn’t they already address that by nerfing the way boons stack?
-
Boon: calamity When all players spawn in the entire realm instantly explodes and entity gets yeeted to narnia
-
Exactly. People(both sides) like to paint the worst case scenario on the book just so it seems like either side needs a sledgehammer nerf. Aka all the vids and outrage about 4 survivors spam healing on a single totem with the best medkits and healing perks. It just doesn’t work in a real setting. Or some streamer posting a…
-
I think spirit is completely balanced now apart from MDR and CB combo. Stand still mind game doesn’t work anymore and you can hear her phasing direction. Survivors that say otherwise probably aren’t accustomed to playing against spirit or should just bring spine chill and IW if they think she’s that OP. works wonders.
-
So basically free for you to destroy instantly and waste the survivor’s time booning it? Make it make sense. If y’all actually want balance then suggest proper buffs and nerfs. Otherwise own up to it and just say you want one side to be trash.
