Most Powerful Addon In The Game?
I'm sure a lot of people are going to say Alchy Ring, but honestly - Tombstone Piece is hilariously silly. Change it, give Myers help elsewhere (I'd make 'stalk juice' reset slowly on survivors so you don't arbitrarily run out of your power on longer games).
Comments
alch ring or mdr and yeah obviously tombstone op but atleast its on arguably the worst killer in the game
Myers? I wouldn't say he's the worst by any means. Not when Trapper and Legion exist (I'd argue that Wraith and non camping Bubba's are also really awful right now).
MDR isn't too bad in isolation, it's the combo with the blossom that makes it rather strong.
Alch Ring is definitely getting nerfed in the midpatch. It's just the subject of too many complaints.
When it comes to how powerful they are with it compared to not then I’d say pinky finger. Having exposed on demand as clown for 1 add on slot is ridiculous
Id Change it to expose survivors for 30 seconds if they cure their intoxication with an antidote. Changes his playstyle in a fun way but remains somewhat powerful
Tombstone because you can instakill a healthy survivor you've had 0 interaction with, didn't even stalk.
Obviously speed limiter on bubba.
If you're lucky you can hit the same survivor 2 times with one chainsaw sweep
honestly both clowns iris are pretty busted but yeah pinky finger is a good contender for most busted addons
Tombstone Piece for sure. Nothing else lets you straight up remove a survivor at ~4 gens remaining.
Judith's is balanced, even if it's not the most fun thing in the world to play against, but Piece is just busted. There's a lot of very strong addons out there - MDR, Alchemist's, Mint Rag - but I don't think any can hold a candle to that one.
If we're ignoring the Killers these Add-ons are attached to, then Tombstone Piece would be the most OP Add-on in the game, but if we're also taking the Killer into account, then Alchemist Ring would take the spot
Mint Rag...honestly I'd say is about right for an iri.
It's powerful and opens up a different playstyle, but it does have an opportunity cost and requires a bit of skill and foresight to use effectively.
The deal I see with Mint Rag is that it removes half the counterplay to Hag's power. If you don't have a flashlight, good luck, because she's coming back to that hook/hex/gen/exit gate whether you crouched or not. Hag also takes very little time to reset a trap if she guesses wrong, so there isn't much travel overhead for her. As for opportunity cost - does it detract from her basekit power? I didn't think so.
Mint Rag won't help her if she's setting up traps at chase points, and they're just as destructible while she's busy with someone else, but at objectives, it's pretty nasty. Hooks especially.
I don't mind it myself - Hag is just way too rare for me to get chuffed about anything she has - but I wholly understand why people have an issue with it.
Mother daughter ring on spirit is pretty nuts.
Most powerful/consistently great/positively transformative addons in the game (According to me).
? - Unsure
"Formerly" - No longer the case.
Spirit:
Mother Daughter Ring (+ Yakuyoke Amulet/Dried Cherry Blossom)
Blight:
Compound33
AlcRing
Blight Tag

Tombstone
Pinhead:
(Formerly?) Engineer's Fang
Huntress:
(Formerly) Iridescent Head + Belt
NUrse:
Torn Bookmark
Kavanagh's Last Breath
(Formerly) Omegablink, 5 blink
Oni:

Probably Alchemist’s Ring. As ultra rare, I’d say the fang (even after the nerf) and MDR.
All Seeing Blood
BNP.
I don't care the power of killers' purple/iri addons.
Most killers' purple/iri addons are just terrible anyway.
All Seeing used to be strong, it's really mediocre now. The aura reading is tiny. Honestly, his iri that lets him track gens is a lot better.
Well as a player with 500+ hours on just Wraith, I feel it's still exceptionally strong, especially if I'm using it as a face check assistant instead of as a radar.
Hmm.
how often have you used lichen? i see it as a huge upgrade over soda tbh. see EVERYONE no matter what they're doing (except lockers) while tping and for 3 seconds.
i guess if you miss them behind the gen then soda would be better in that specific scenario? but overall i don't see it being better in the majority of times personally.
sorta up to preference though, but i'd still argue that lichen is stronger and gives valuable team-wide information in every stage of the game whereas soda is too focused on one thing.
also i do like the brass lighter praise, it's very easy blindness.
Combine nurses irri add ons. Literal easy mode
It’s pretty easy to pull off that setup when playing him tbh. Obviously in normal circumstances you shouldn’t but iri’s are supposed to change a killers playstyle
I made a comment months ago about leprose. I ran it with MYC and felt its was insanely strong.
Bubba with both his Iri add-ons is just some deranged mofo. I play this combo every once in a while, and nothing can prepare the survivors for whats comming. I once got 3 survivors down in one activation! I disturbed an unsave unhooking in the classic Bubba fashion, but then kept chasing behind the unhooked survivor with his BT and hit him twice, then noticed another survivor at some nearby gen and also caught that one. The last survivor managed to pick one of the others up, by the time I had hooked two, but the game was pretty much over by that time and I gave the last one tha hatch ^^
you're better off using iridescent flesh + chili, since carb tuning guide decreases your speed, and it'll consume all tokens for breaking a pallet which can suck. chili gives the same benefit without the downsides of tuning guide. it's only worth using if you don't like timing your charges.
iri flesh is really nice though, i like it.
Obvious choice would be Tombstone Piece, but I would say Iridescent Flesh for Bubba.
Quite a lot.
From certain angles, I find the auras get blocked by gens.
Pinky Finger is the most overpowered add-on. It is by far Clown’s best add-on and singlehandedly makes Clown much, much better as a killer than without it. I really do think they need to give Clown a slight boost to his base kit and simultaneously nerf Pinky Finger a bit, it would make Clown better overall but also even out the popularity of his add-ons
You are 100% right with your assessment, but there is something pure or cathartic about slotting in two iri add ons that work together so beautifully. And with a lucky run you can keep sawing for half an eternity and traverse the map from one end to the other ... well, not really, but there is a very fun youtube video from OhTofu were he has some awesome footage of that combi :)
