Springtrap is still very weak and he needs changes.
Springtrap is my main and i have 100p level on him. He is one of my favourite killers to play but there is a problem. Since Jason (slasher) got released it feels like that springtrap is now kinda powercrept and weak. I really do wanna play him but don"t want the same situation happen to me just like with demogorgon, cause he was my main before him and since we got new killers he got weaker and weaker to the point that nobody plays him. So I was really thinking of what could be done to springtrap to make him better for both sides. Here are some ideas:
- whenever he goes through the doors his footsteps will be completly silent during the undetectable status effect.
- two options: A) remove the blinking indicator on the door. or B) give him 5% haste when he exits the door for the same duration as the undetectable status. Mainly because of the pre-running strategy espcecially with sprint burst and vigil.
- There would something like a pinhead timer and whenever the timer runs out or enough time passed he will get this: 15 or 20% faster axe pulling (preparing), the bubble radius whenever the axe is thrown will be 2X bigger and permament, the bubble whenever is touching a window or a pallet they will be blocked, his cooldown on recaling his axe will now be only 2 seconds after he throws it.
- When ever survivor has an axe on them, they will be 10% hindered whenever removing the axe (in general)
- Now for survivors: in order to get rid of his benefits after the timer. One of them (survivors) would go through the door and enter the office where they could reveal him and that will remove his benefits and you can leave the office whenever you want and it will be just like it is now.
- But if springtrap manages to jumpscare them in the office his timer will reset.
- Addons: irridiscent remnant - it activate after he exits the doors and not when he is moving and maybe slightly increase the duration of pallets and windows being blocked by 1 or 2 seconds.
- Freddy"s hat: (reworked) increase the time to reveal springtrap on cameras by 2 or 3 seconds.
- Almost forgot to mention since some people actually like freddy"s hat addon that it could be kinda basekit (the one that we have now) like huntress when you hold it for longer you will hear an audio cue and it go further except for the fact that sprngtrap"s axe wouldn"t really be for distance but like how he works now. Thats all i wanted to say. Thank you for reading.

All of that sounds actually kinda good. As a fellow Afton guy I'm all for it.
Apart from making Hat basekit. Even with a charge mechanic that's going to annoy the ever-loving crap out of me.
Also i forgot to mention that what could also be done is that (not just springtrap) but those who have addon that reveal them a trajectory etc. should not be addon but instead a basekit setting that you can set on or off
