Totems
Will there be any rework of totems (spawns, cleanse time...etc.)? Yesterday while I was doing my dailies as survivor I spawned 2 consecutive games EXACTLY 5 steps from enchanted totem, cleansed it and literaly destroyed killers perk slot in 20s.
BHVR is reworking Ruin to be kind of late game hex, but, as you can see, totem spawns locations are ridiculous. First developers should fix totems locations (dont spawn literaly next to survivors, hide it better...etc.) and raise cleansing time because 14 seconds is really not enough for destruction of 1 killer perk slot.
On the one side devs justice their Ruin rework as great change for late game but on the other side hexes will never survive mid/late game bacause of stupid locations of totems. There should be much higher cleanse times, more hidden spawn locations and maybe some kind of protection for first minutes + implement Thrill of the hunt to killers basic kit or at least remove hex from this perk.

As we've seen first with the Springwood rework and more recently with the Lery's rework, the devs are adjusting totem spawns to be less obvious map by map as they rework each one. However, it seems like we only get two map reworks per year, so it might be quite a while before all the maps have decent spawn locations.
As for the rest, there's no indication yet that the developers have any plans for adjusting cleansing times or reworking Thrill Of The Hunt.
I'm serious just code Totems to spawn in against three intersecting angles.
Its total nonsense to protect Hex by picking another Hex and 14s cleansing time is nothing.
I wouldn't call the new Lerys totem spot great. They still have the "middle of the hallway" and "right beside that chair in the open" spots.
I see that as game-breaking situation that is disabling all hexes, it should be repaired asap and not 2 maps per year.
