  Pallet vaccum wasn't an intended mechanic, which is why it was removed (although I'm not sure it's 100% gone tbh). Pallets are still as good as ever, unless you're facing a killer that doesn't care about them, but in this case even buffing pallets wouldn't change anything.

  Considering you started playing a week ago it's normal you feel there aren't enough pallets, because you and / or your teammates are probably dropping all of them immediately instead of looping them. If you want to learn how to loop better and save pallets longer you can use Windows of Opportunity (Kate Denson perk) that will make you see where windows & pallets are, or you could even bring Any Means Necessary (Yui Kimura perk), which will allow you to reset dropped pallets when the killer doesn't drop them.

  Thanks for the response! I've seen looping and stuff, but found hiding and waiting for the bear trapper to leave was better, right? Seeing pallets is gonna be super useful, thanks!

  It's just a new survivor thing. I promise you there are more than enough pallets on every map now. Right now it's most likely what @Annso_x mentioned with your teammates just plowing through them. If your teammates not in chase was on gens.....You can pre-drop over and over and the game would be over before you ran out of pallets. Teammates not on gens when they should be is your main issue.

  I've met more than a few of my team mates as we hid by the corner safe spots killers never look, they always heal themselves, but it takes so long when I'm right there -_-

  Every pallet drop that the killer breaks adds around 18 seconds to a chase, unless you are literally sitting right next to the pallet and watch the killer start the break animation. A minimum chase time just holding w, should be around 55 seconds if you don't factor in loops/pallets/windows/perks or the killer power. All you have to do, is force the killer to break 2 pallets, and your 3 other teammates should have finished 3 gens.

  The real problem is likely that your teammates are just not doing the generators which is the case for newer players. When i first started playing as survivor years ago (back when survivors were actually much stronger than they are now) i was lucky if me and my friends on coms got a single gen done before one of us was killed.

  As time goes on, and you get better, you'll start to be much better at looping killers and having teammates that completely objectives.

  At my MMR/rank whatever, our hunters are also just as good. Good meaning so far 2 have hit hooked survivors, I asked why and they said "to kill them faster", which I don't think is true
