Pig got nerfed again and so did Clown! lol smh
So most killers are add-on reliant for them to be viable and Pig and Clown are two of those killers. Pig already received a big nerf pre patch that basically ensures that she won't get head pops most of the time (due to the nerfs to Crate of Gears & Jigsaw Sketch). Now with the current patch both Aamandas Letter and Last Will got nerfed which means Pig indirectly gets nerfed (again). I dont use those add-ons with Pig (because i think they suck and there are better ones for whatever thats worth) but the nerf to them was very unneccessary. Who's giving input on balance and balance issues to the devs? Seriously!
This is obviously done with an intent and may indefinetly have to do with buisness (politics etc) as the devs clearly are not going for a balanced game.
Clown received a nerf as well as Robin Feather, Flask of Bleach and his Iridecent got nerfed. I actually agree with the Iredecent nerf as it "should" encourage Clown players not to use it (i personally never use his Iri) but i understand why people do, its because Clown is very weak and one of the weakest killers in the game.
So "nerf" weak killers like Pig and Clown but leave Nurse and Blight alone............................................right
Were one more patch away from the game being renamed to Survived By Daylight folks! Its very obvious what the devs are doing.

Clown did in fact get nerfed and even lost one of the buffs he had on the PTB, so I'll give you that. Don't know what they were thinking there.
However, Pig actually got buffed. Amanda's letter used to reduce your available RBTs by 3, so you'd have 1. Now it reduces it by 2, so you have 2. Decent buff honestly. Last will is a similar story. Last Will made Pig faster while ambushing but at the cost of taking longer to charge ambush. That downside to charge time got cut in half so it is also a buff.
Firstly robin feather was a buff from 30 to 40. Secondly the Flask of bleach nerf is essentially a placebo with how small it is
Amanda's Letter: Decreses availiable Brear Traps by 2 (was 1)
Are we both interpreting this the same?
Last Will your correct about Last Will actually.
Clown is nerfed overall
It means Letter only takes away two RBTs instead of three like it originally did. Granted, that part is poorly written.
Yeah i got that about Pig now. Too bad she still sucks haha.
Why do you think Blight and Nurse was untouched and characters like Myers not buffed?
Right, got it, thanks!
I know you didn't ask me, but I can answer this- it's because these changes are all numbers-only addon tweaks, and the other killers you mentioned need much more than that.
Aside from Nurse, they absolutely did touch Nurse, they rewrote her code almost from the ground up. Bit unreasonable to expect balance changes on top of that.
BHVR: "Killers are leaving the game in mass and survivor queue times are the longest they have been in years because of it. Better nerf Pig again."
Those addons got buffed lmao
They nerfed the negatives
But... but she got buffed.
The "nerf pig" jokes have never had a super firm grip on the reality of the game, but watching this thread I truly feel like I'm going insane
They didn't nerf her,,, please,,,,
Nerf pig =make tome prioritize weak killer again.
I'm disappointed that the solvent jug buff didn't go through. If it didn't go through because we'd have two of the same add-ons....then why didn't they just make the purple do 3-4 seconds.
Yep. She wasn't nerfed. I was very confused when I read the first post. Lol
