Gens keep regressing whenever someone lets go, making it easier to track Survivors even while phasing. After your first hook Hex: Hive Mind gives perfect gen information, and Haunted Ground makes cleansing totems very risky.

  • Hex: RetributionHex: Retribution

Hexes have strong effects. With Retribution you see everyone's aura when a totem is cleansed. Dominance is a great alternative (blocks totems), then drink from a fountain for a damaging spree. Retribution makes Survivors Oblivious while interacting with totems, so you can ambush them.
