What’s the point in running exposed perks?

If survivors are just going to jump into snowmen for an extra health state anyway?

This event is a giant middle finger to killer mains. But hey, fun sweaters right? I guess we just need to “nOt pLaY tO wIN, jUsT hAvE fUn lol”

yeah the event is real fun if you’re playing survivor. But if you’re playing Ghostface or Twins, or any killer with Exposed perks, or just killer in general then this “event” is just more survivor second chances

  • Exposed Perks in general just aren't that useful to begin with, or are extremely situational at best

  • Not sure I understand this argument. Even if the snowmen were an extra health state, surely the point of running Exposed perks is to make sure that the first hit which actually connects gets the down?

    If a survivor knows they’re exposed then they’ll simply hop into a snowman forcing the killer to hit them and go on cool down while they make more distance to a pallet or window

    Right, but they can only do that when and while there's a snowman near them, so the next hit is still going to down them.

    Assuming there's even a snowman nearby to begin with, too.

    Also, since the animation for getting in a snowman is relatively slow, if there's a pallet or window near enough to get to during the killer's wipe animation, they almost certainly could've gotten there without the snowman anyway.
