4.7.0 PTB patch notes feedback | Demogorgon changes really need some tweaks

Alright, so we got a few interesting changes, for the most part they are good. The addon changes for Huntress were interesting, but we are concerned about the Demogorgon's addon changes

Then there a few other underwhelming changes for the other addons including: The deer lungs, unidentified egg, the soldier's puttee, the weighted head, and especially the rat liver.

The deer lung:

The deer lung is green tiered addon with a somewhat strong effect, the drawback (-2 portals) is simply not needed. The only addons that should have a draw back are ultra rare addons that massively buff one part of a killers power, but nerf another part such as myers' tombstone addons.

The unknown egg:

The unknown egg is very rare addon that is still very weak for its rarity. The cooldown decrease is pretty much useless since the recovery speed for his portals is already very fast, even faster now at base.

Consider changing it to this:

  • Survivors suffer from the exposed status effect for 30 seconds after cleansing a portal
  • Survivors suffer from the oblivious status effect after cleansing a portal or running on top of one


The soldier's puttee:

The soldier's puttee is a very weak addon on the Huntress. It gives her a movement speed increase only when she is out of hatchets, no Huntress player is going to leave themselves without any hatchets for longer than 30 seconds. However, it would be a very good thing if this became a base kit feature for Huntress since she is helpless without hatchets in general, and sometimes lockers are too far away to break away from a chase she almost has. It is not a good effect for an ultra rare addon, but a great change to her base kit. We would love to see this in action.


The weighted head

The weighted head is a concern mainly because it is just too weak for its rarity as well. 10 seconds of the incapacitated status effect is not going to do anything because the survivor hit by it will just continue to run away. The only situation where this would even come close to helping you is if a survivor latches on to a generator and tries to finish it right when you come by, but that is VERY situational. Consider changing it to this:

  • When a survivor is hit by a fully charged hatchet, they suffer from the incapacitated status effect for 30 seconds range.

or

  • When a survivor is hit by a fully charged hatchet, they suffer from the deep wound status effect.

These changes would give the weighted head a much better use.


So about the rat liver

So about the the Demogorgon addon change to the rat liver without making it base kit, it seems unnecessary and should definitely be base kit for Demogorgon. He is unable to use his shred effectively against good survivors without it, not only that but his shred is unique and has counterplay for both sides involved in interactions using them.

Thank you for your time.
