Boon Totems - an idea

Hello everyone,

I just had an idea regarding boon totems and wanna do a quick check in if its viable or totally dumb. Here we go!

You all know the drill: "boons are fine, its just CoH thats busted", "boons are not hexes, don't compare them all the time", "its totally fine that boons can be relit, while hexes are gone for good" etc.

How about this little solution in order to maybe reign them in a bit, without nerving them too much. Lets make the Thunderclap directional! This way the killer knows the general direction of the map where the totem got up and might roam over there to search for survivors. Now booning a totem isn't braindead, but you might give the risks involved a little thought. You might skip booning the first totem you stumble about, but later in the match, when there are dead-zones with no gens in them, its pretty save to boon over there. On the other hand, when the killer snuffs out a totem and you sneak up behind him to instantly relight it, the killer might notice.

Whats your thoughts about this small change and nerf? I pretty much like the idea, but am curious about what you might think.
