blood warden needs a rework
so if bloodwarden activates when the gates open and someone is on the hook , survivors can use the 99% gate opening trick and then use the last 1% to open the gates after the survivor is sacrificed and/or rescued . this makes equipping bloodwarden useless , so it should be changed to once all the gens are done , after the exit gates are open blood warden activates IF once all the gens are done someone was hooked when the final gen was done , and it would not matter if they would be unhooked or not .

I don´t know if i agree with what you're saying but blood warden definitely needs a buff.
I second this.
But if you change it like that, maybe the gate will be blocked once the gate is opened, but if you hook the survivor far from the gates and the rest find out u have bloodwarden they'll have time to hide and loop you again, and the rest will still end up escaping. What I usually do is down the survivor, open a gate, then camp the survivor on the ground. What I think would be a better buff to the perk is buff it to 50/60/70 seconds, instead of 30/40/60.
OMG, my dream is a 2 minutes BW.
what you said makes zero sense , obviously if I don't down the survivors before blood warden effect ends they will escape if they can get to the gates
Lets say you kill one survivor by hooking them when the gens are powered and that's when the rest of the team opens the gates. When they see that the exit is blocked, the three of them will run out of the gates to hide from you. Lets say you find them and start chasing one of them. That ONE survivor will still run you around and even if you down them and slug you'll have to chase down the others. If they're good, they'll have run you around for more than a minute, and since the EGC timer goes down slower when someone is downed, that means it's more likely BW will end before the EGC timer runs out. If the survivors are smart, they'll run you away from the gates so that the rest of the team gets the escape when you finally down that survivor and BW deactivates. So you'll still have someone who escapes.
If you keep BW as it is now, you down a survivor when the gates are powered, you open the gates and then you choose when to hook them. Meaning you'll have more control over the EGC and potentially trap the remaining survivors when the EGC has less than 60 seconds to end.
If gates regressed in progress after being left alone, then I might be good with them not opening the gates.
