Lmao, the developers heard that people want Survivors to have more secondary objectives because generators are finished so quickly and they just flipped 180° and added more for the Killer to take care of. I can’t deal with these people.
JackBoxcarBear sarcastically expressed:
I’m really glad they are adding this. One problem I’ve always noticed when playing Killer was all the downtime I had during a match. Generators are repaired so slowly and I can easily pressure all 4 Survivors at once, I can practically control the map before there is even a threat of Survivors escaping.
More secondary objectives for Killers, please! It makes things interesting. Also, I love searching for bones. It’s way more fun than chasing or anything else! /s
What do you think of this new feature? A cool idea that could be exciting? Or pretty dumb and just something that shouldn’t make it into the game?
Killers will have a harder time in Dead by Daylight. They will soon need to search for Totems to weaken the Survivors.
The release of the new “Hellraiser” chapter in Dead by Daylight has been overshadowed by some issues. In addition to the lack of Pinhead’s voicelines and some annoying bugs, players have found new information about upcoming content in the game’s tutorial section. It seems that Killers will also need to search for and destroy Totems soon. Time they actually don’t have.
What was discovered? Shortly after the latest patch was released, players discovered a new description for Totems in the information. In addition to the normal and “Hex-Totems”, which contain Killer perks, there will soon also be “Boon-Totems” for Survivors. These Totems grant Survivors certain buffs, likely defined more precisely through perks – just like in the case of the Killer. The Killer can search for and deactivate this Totem by destroying it.
Is this already in the game? No. Currently, there is only the tutorial entry that allows Survivors to transform Totems into a “Boon-Totem”. However, since the information is already in the game, it is assumed that the next patch will bring a Survivor who possesses this ability.
Why is this a problem? The issue is that Killers already have enough to do during the match. They must simultaneously slow down four Survivors while keeping an eye on the status of the generators and trying to slow down their progress as much as possible. This alone requires the full attention of the Killer, who is facing four Survivors alone.
For the Survivors, it does not weigh as heavily if a player has to deal with Totems. It only marginally reduces the group’s effectiveness. However, the Killer must devote their full attention to one thing, which is why the four Survivors have free rein to create progress during that time.
Community reacts with dismay: The news was received quite poorly in the Dead by Daylight community. Shortly after the information was discovered in the game’s tutorial, it spread like wildfire in the game’s subreddit. For most, it is inconceivable that developers Behaviour want to add even more tasks for Killer players.

I swear, Behaviour is trying everything to make Killers stop playing this game.
