Pig Update ideas

I believe Pig could use a update to her kit, the traps don't carry much actual threat and while at times the slow down can have a big effect, but other times a it can be removed right away without having much of any impact. I had a few suggestions that hopefully make them more impactful.

  1. Tie skill checks on an active bear trap every 20-30sec?, on a fail 10 secs are lost, on a pass the location of your trap key is reviled for 2-3 sec and no time loss, on a great pass the trap is reviled for 5 sec and no time is lost, being on a hook or in the dying state is an auto fail on the skill check. In addition rather then 4 jigsaw boxes have 7-10 on a map and have them be smaller, maybe just the puppet itself. This change adds to the stress of having a trap on you by actively making you aware of it, and guaranteeing some time lost dealing with it due to the skill checks on it and rewarding those who get do well on your checks.
  2. Addons updates would be nice, I would also like to see either an addon or just an update to the traps that can make them trigger on action taken as well rather then just gen completion. Say maybe the trap allows 3 actions before its timer turns on with or without a gen getting completed. Actions being starting to work on a gen, removing someone from a hook, using a pallet, vaulting a window, healing/recovering a survivor. This again falls in line with trying to add pressure to the traps being something that will draw more survivor attention to them and less to progressing the gens.
  3. Oh one last idea, allow traps to "half trigger" when the pig hits a person with a trap on their head instantly putting them in the dying state and disabling the trap. Allow the pig to "repair" a disabled trap and returning it to the inactive status on a downed survivor. That adds to the pigs snowball power as the match progresses.


Anyway those are just some of my ideas, they are not necessarily meant to all be done together, but I think adding 1 or 2 of them would really help the pig really enforce their theme as a killer and shore up some of the problems she has dealing with skilled survivors.
