Rework trapper

trapper's traps spawn on like the corners and ends of the maps that should get eliminated and make traps spawn more fairly than that, it gets worse on bigger maps as well

  • He should just start with all his traps, in my opinion. Way too much time wasted in a match collecting and setting traps. He's needed a buff of that magnitude for a long time.

  • Agreed to both posts.

    Either give him 5 Traps by Default, with the Bags increasing this number, or give him at least one other Trap and place the remaining Traps more in the Center of the Map instead of the corners.

    (I would prefer him starting with all Traps by Default, this would also have the nice effect that Survivors cannot spawn right next to a Trap and know that they are going against a Trapper)

  • Traps definitely need something done about spawns, like having them spawn more near gens or just the middle of the map; away from the edges.

    He also needs more than one trap in hand at default, its bag addons are almost mandatory.

  • They gave him trap resets so let's hope they look into this as well

  • I think by now trapper needs to spawn with all his traps in his hand there's no better way to balance him

    Trapper is like the perfect killer (in my opinion). Hes simple yet powerful and you still need a bit of skill to play him well, but his downfall is him needing to travel to his traps. Although I can get behind the improvement I don't think it's needed

    It's 100% needed in a game where gen rushers exist

    The traps should be in more convenient places but other than that it's not a problem

    Give a general idea on the more convenient places please, is it center of the map is it near killer shacks etc

    Well it's like you said they spawn on corners and edges of the map and that can be pretty annoying. As long as they're not in those places or dead zones they are in convenient places.

    I See it as a waste of time tbh why go through the same animation of picking up traps over and over again killers don't have time on their side tbh you look around once and 3 gens are done already look twice and they're at the gate tea bagging you idk man I would prefer for trapper to have his traps in his hands and be done with it, not mention if you don't equip a bag add-on you're even more screwed

    True but that's like saying Huntress should have all her hatchets at hand. What if the trapper got his traps from the locker instead? Fixes the annoyance of going around collecting them but doesn't make him OP.

    You can't really compare huntress and trapper since they use a complete different system but ok
