Invocation not being applied to generators that are blocked by the entity.
Is this a feature? It's not labeled anywhere in the perk description that would imply this would be the case.
"The place where fear festers and terror treads is also where those with the gift can reach across the veil.
Once the Invocation is completed, the following effects apply:
- Permanently reduces the Repair Charges requirement of all generators in the Trial by 8/9/10 Charges.
from any previous Health State, and suffer from the Broken Status Effect for the remainder of the Trial.
Completing an Invocation disables all Invocation Perks for the remainder of the Trial for all Survivors."
As it clearly states, ALL GENERATORS will be affected. Nowhere here does it say it won't be added to generators that are blocked by the entity, it's simply implied through game mechanics that are never explained, but learned. But, your average player won't be able to recognize why this perk isn't activating on generators that are blocked as they'll be focused on going to the basement to trigger the perk… which is a challenge of itself. Is this supposed to be a survivor version of a Hex Totem? Huge Risk Huge Reward? If so, what's the purpose of blocking the reward portion but keeping the risk portion, especially if it's never mentioned it can be blocked?

Yeah I think I remember one of the devs commenting on a post like this awhile back saying that this was intended. As you’ve pointed out though they don’t make that clear in the perk description and I think that needs to change. People should know the risks before they choose whether or not to run the perk. Very uncool on BHVR part.
