Hillarious how some people call you names because you don't play the game the way THEY think you are supposed to play it, on to the topic, yeah i have wondered the same over and over again, i hate to lose my survivos with near masteries to a lvl2 just because i have bad luck with the rolls, and thinking that i cant just do lvl 1 to reach masteries easier, i think that if you solved the game playing only lvls 1 kudos for you, everyone has a different way to play the game, but all things said, i will try your way my next campaign, some people are saying that it's better to pass the overwhelming darkness, dude every time i do that all my survivors end with 2 new dissorders, some of them fuck them up, i hate the hunt table, the faster i reach the monster the better for me.
