Surge + Oppression: Does it Work?

Does Oppression specifically require the "Damage Generator" action / Kicking of a generator like Overcharge and Pop Goes the Weasel? Or can Surge's damaging of a generator trigger Oppression on other generators on the map?

  • I’d say it’s unlikely. But that doesn’t mean they couldn’t still complement each other.

    Get off a surge, and then find a gen that wasn’t affected by surge to kick. Sounds like it could be a real nuisance to the survivors.

  • I've got my answer. At about 19:25 in this video, OhTofu downs a Survivor and sets off Surge then, while it's on Cooldown, kicks a gen and sets off Oppression's cooldown, so I'm taking that to mean Oppression does need the actual kicking of a generator to trigger.
