The pig
Does anyone else thinks it takes way to long to get the trap from the pig off your head, I tried for times and still couldn't get it off and died. Is their anyway to stop the timer

Timer stops if you get into chase. And what you saying is very rare, usually all traps are off after searching 1 or 2 boxes. Its RNG
The timer activates once a gen is completed and it pauses if you're in the dying or hooked state. You also can't escape while the timer is active or else you'll die.
The puzzle box that removes the trap is random, so sometimes you will die before you can remove it. I used to get Pigs that had mercy and let the survivors with the traps run around the match while they focused on the others, but I keep getting ones lately that chase and down survivors after the timer activates to eat up time and force the trap to activate.
All you can do is hope that the Pig you end up with won't mess with you while you're trying to remove the trap or if they do, you get lucky and get it off anyway.
Yeah I think that's a huge advantage for the pig, she stops any gen progression, you have to be healed and you might not even get your trap off and she's a stealthy killer, #########
Yeah I couldn't believe it, it seems like she's been buffed because most dbd videos I've seen it takes about four or five tries
Without addons I don’t think it’s possible to die to a RBT unless the killer is actively chasing you off puzzle boxes.
However with tampered timer and crate of gears deaths to RBT are a bit more common, but it’s still up to RNG.
Yeah I wasn't being chased, the timer seemed extremely fast to, I died on my first trap
This is why I hate some of the suggestions for the Pig, most people seem to be focused on her traps. But those traps are too RNG reliant to be healthy for the game, so I'd much rather they focused on her dash.
You clearly haven't versed my pig, if you did your be asking why you get it off the very first box lol.
Being serious though I'd prefer a key system, each box gives a key. Need 2 keys to remove the trap, then addons that increase boxes can add another key required. This way it's never first box, or your very last.
Makes it more consistent and removes too much rng because rng sucks
Yeah something needs to change I've played pig around 5 times this week I only escaped my trap one time the other times it required four traps and I still didn't get my trap off before I either got chased or my trap went off
I can escape her dash what i can't escape is a trap that requires you to use all five boxes, I've had all gameplays but one where I would go through 4 traps and still die, your first trap shouldn't require all five boxes, I think it should be first trap one, second trap 3 and 3 trap four or five, to me that's reasonable
Feel like when I play Pig, survivors just use a Bobby pin that was in their hair to take off the traps while fixing a gen, lol.
That wouldn't really work, since she only gets to place four traps. If she were to trap all survivors once, that'd make them almost negligible.
I think all traps for the Pig should require 2 or 3 boxes to open, or 3 or 4 with the add-on for the extra box. Players should just not die to RNG.
My idea for less RNG on RBT
First, search any box that still contain a "symbol", will give a random symbol of different box. Example you found Beta box first and search for the symbol, it gives you "Alpha symbol"
Second, you have to find the exact box to get the "Alpha key". Which is if you run pass a "Gamma box", you can ignore it and continue to find Alpha box.
After you finish searching Alpha box, you're free from RBT. The next survivor will fail searching symbol at Beta box because you already get the symbol (the box will laugh at you).
This way, a survivor will always have to search for 2 but correct box, rather than randomly. But RNG still play a part of it.
Love the illustration. Piggy is just trying to set you up with a VR headset, why you wanna take it off?
VR shows you this
Of course you dont want to take it off
Reminds me of some of the stuff ppl were modding in for character cosmetics. I saw a screenshot of a Jane in her underwear.
Yeah I honestly hate it, shes the killer I rate the second worst, my map rng and trap rng are awful lol. I want to love her but cant
Example:
Alpha box contains: Alpha key + Gamma symbol
Beta box contains: Beta key + Alpha symbol
Gamma box contains: Gamma key + Zeta symbol
Zeta box contains: Zeta key + Beta symbol
Rule is a box contains a key of its own name, with a symbol of other 3. And you will have to find symbol before finding key.
You being the first one get RBT, you search either one of four. Say you found Beta box first so go for it, you get Alpha symbol. You have to find Alpha box to get Alpha key. After that, you're free.
Alpha box contains:
Alpha key+ Gamma symbolBeta box contains: Beta key +
Alpha symbolGamma box contains: Gamma key + Zeta symbol
Zeta box contains: Zeta key + Beta symbol
Im being the 2nd one get RBT, if I search Beta box, I get nothing (because you already get the symbol in Beta box). So I have to find other 3. Say I found Gamma box and get Zeta symbol, I have to find Zeta box to unlock my RBT.
Alpha box contains:
Alpha key+ Gamma symbolBeta box contains: Beta key +
Alpha symbolGamma box contains: Gamma key +
Zeta symbolZeta box contains:
Zeta key+ Beta symbolAt this point, Beta & Gamma no more have symbol. So the 3rd guy gets symbol either at Alpha or Zeta..If he gets symbol at Alpha box, he finds key at Gamma,
if he gets symbol at Zeta, he finds key at Beta.Alpha box contains:
Alpha key+Gamma symbolBeta box contains: Beta key +
Alpha symbolGamma box contains:
Gamma key+Zeta symbolZeta box contains:
Zeta key+ Beta symbolThe last guy find whats remaining. He has to find the exact Zeta box for symbol. Which mean, the later you get trapped, the longer it takes to unlock trap (because you dont know which box still have the symbol)
You have to find symbol before key.
Yes, instead of RNG force you to either search 1 or 4 boxes.
This way most of the time you have to find 2-3 boxes. Though I find its not fair that the last guy may have to search 5 boxes to unlock RBT. There should be a way to fix it.
I will never be in favor of any change that effectively guarantees that it will never take more than three boxes to take off a Reverse Bear Trap. :P
"Or that this effectively reduces the likelihood of the RBT death timer being a significant enough of a "threat" given the overall reduced potential of wasted time?"

This one.
I don't think that would stop good players from searching one box and then ignoring the trap until the timer starts, which hurts the effectiveness of the trap badly IMO.
Delaying the Pig's stall and forcing them to work on gens is a bad idea. That's why RSN2 is not a good add-on IMO. You'd have to pretty much make the timer auto-start to light enough of a fire under the Survivor to get them to move.
Let's say it auto-starts when they are hooked to give slugged Survivors a chance to maybe crawl away.
Here is a key system idea. Think Saw 2.
The key to your trap is hidden inside one of the other three survivors. You get a prompt when near a survivor that isn't interacting with something. After performing the action, the survivor suffers a deep wound they have to mend, and you either find the key to your trap or you don't. You then move on to the next survivor.
LOL
Yeah she's too lethal, I think she needs to be nerfed
Nah honestly you probably just had bad experiences with Pigs running stronger addons to make it harder to get traps off your head.
The only time you actually die to a RBT is if you were overly greedy and didn't focus on boxes. There are edge cases with Jigsaw Sketch, Crate of Gears, and-or Tampered Timer alongside certain maps that makes removing traps in time especially a pipe dream, but these are pretty rare and RNG can save you if it does happen. The timer only pauses if you're being chased, or dying / hooked, that's really it unless your RBT is deactivated, which in that case, you have until the next generator before the RBT begins counting down.
